Amityville Horror’ home for sale
Amityville horror house for sale
The house that became famous after the 1979 horror film “The Amityville Horror” is now for sale in New York however the ghosts are not included (because the home’s haunting was a hoax).
The 5 bedroom Dutch Colonial went on the market Monday for $1.15 million.
The Oscar-nominated film is based on the story of the Lutz family’s brief stay in the house in 1975 after 6 members of the DeFeo family were shot and killed as they slept in the house. Eldest son Ronald DeFeo Jr. was convicted of the murders.
The crime spawned a book and a series of movies that chronicled various supernatural horrors, including visions of walls oozing slime, moving furniture and a visit from a demonic pig named Jodie. The original film stars James Brolin and Margot Kidder. Neighbors tell us that gawkers still occasionally drop by, mostly on Halloween.
