  • More Amityville Horror Nonsense

    I mean, they can't just let this sleeping dog die? I lived in Amityville for many years, was two minutes away from the "horror house". The only thing horrible was the murders that took place there. That's it. The family that subsequently bought the house (after the other family fled in terror) lived there for many years and never reported ANY kind of paranormal activity. But never let the truth stand in the way of a moneymaker....

      (I have to admit that I'm a GHOST ADVENTURES junkie, so I look forward to anything that has to do with anything haunted house related, even if it is a bit... redundant.)

        Having followed this case for a number of years, I'd say there was far more to it than an out-and-out hoax as some people assume.

        The new documentary My Amityville Horror should at least prove intriguing -

          The ONLY people who claim to have experienced paranormal activity was the Lutz's, who was in the house for what, a month? After that, a family lived in the house for 20 plus years---no ghostly activity whatsoever. And the scuttlebutt in town was it was a hoax, plain and simple. I'm told that one weekend that the Lutzs' claimed to have ghastly going on's, they were having a garage sale--no sign of anything wrong. I'm just repeating what was known in Amityville. The family who lived there had to put up with all kinds of shenangians at Halloween.

            I think it's like that with most hauntings - sometimes it's the occupants which set them off. Plenty of "famous" houses are subsequently owned by people who report nothing.

            And the oft-reported "garage sale" happened over 2 months after they left - the house is fully-furnished in the footage on which this new movie is based on...

              Do tour buses go by on Halloween? Like the Death Tour in LA, something like that.
              At least they didn't have to defile a beautiful loch in Scotland to perpetrate the hoax and lure suckers in. (I saw footage of that on Penn+Teller's Bullshit show. They and The Amazing Randi should totally do Amityville.)

              It's too bad the subsequent residents were harassed because of it. They should have sold it to some total horror movie freaks to turn it into a Haunted House, like the ones I attended as a child . Or some hard skeptics who can appreciate a good laugh at the idiots who believe stuff like that is real.
              What I have crossed out, I didn't like. What I haven't crossed out, I am dissatisfied with.

                I'm just relaying what was the dope in Amityville--I lived there from 1985-2003. On Halloween and the weeks preceding it, traffic would increase on the street, people would stop and take pix, that kind of thing. We trick o' treated there many times---the house was on one of the nicest streets in Amityville, in a very desirable section...I believe the house was sold again just a year or two ago...

                Did the Lutz' ever report any kind of paranormal activity in subsequent homes?

                  Zak Bagans and his crew need to EVP the hell out of that place.

                  They'll get to the bottom of it.

                    Yeah, hoping to hear more about this in My Amityville Horror.

                      Hey Limama, if someone offered you the chance to stay in the house all by yourself for a long weekend, would you do it? Be honest.

                        Wow, that's a toughie. I'd like to say that I probably would, but I'd bring a baseball bat in case I needed it.

                            I would give my left nut to spend a night in that house.

                              Yeah I love haunted house stuff. I live in one in fact, although I can't prove it of course.

                              I keep meaning to write a ghost story. A really small, slow burn, simple one.
