The lovely Dutch Colonial home with the gambrel roof in Amityville, New York, whose stories turned into the basis for a book and the Amityville Horror movies, is for sale for $1.5 million.
Um, you couldn't pay ME $1.5 million to move into that house (heck, I'm scared right now just writing about it).
In 1974, Ronald DeFeo, Jr., 23 years old at the time, shot and killed six members of his family in this legendary house. In 1975, the Lutz family moved in and claimed to experience strange phenomena, including green slime from walls, realistic nightmares of the DeFeo murders, voices, door slamming, glowing red eyes, swarms of flies, bite marks and other physical marks with no explanation, and the felt presence of ghosts and demons.
The Lutz family's experiences have been questioned as truth over the years, and since they left the house, the home has had two separate owners who claim no strange occurrences in the last three decades.
Uh, what was that? Did you hear that? Uck, I'm so freaked out.
Money aside, would you buy the Amityville Horror house?

NOOOOOOO..... would not go near it!
No way
Yes, I would buy the home. It is not Haunted or Hexed. The boy who lived there was high on drugs & killed the entire family. Nothing more. Amityville even went to the extent of changing the name of the street after the event. The priest was full of soup, too. So, absolutely, I would buy the home.
No not me!
I would move to that house today, A house is just a shell but a shell that has seen so much has got to have a hell of a story.
i would and then let the guys from ghost hunters come in and check it out before i move my kids in..lol
Imagine of all the goths and dripping waxy alter thingies.
No way.
no
Never! That book scared the crap out of me when I was 12! I loaned it to a friend when I finished with it and she got so scared that she ripped it into pieces and flushed it down the toilet! NO JOKE. :D
NO way! I'm also freaked out just thinking about it now. Kids and hubby are in bed and I'm all alone in the living room. I should turn the tv on. lol
