The Real House in the filming of The Amityville Horror

from ContactMusic.com

The creepy house which inspired 1979 movie THE AMITYVILLE HORROR is up for sale.

The five-bedroom property, situated in Long Island, New York, was the scene of a grisly multiple murder in 1974 which saw six members of the DeFeo family killed as they slept. Eldest son Ronald DeFeo, Jr. was later convicted of the killings.

The film, starring James Brolin and Margot Kidder, was based on the story of a family who moved into the house after the murders, and went on to allegedly witness paranormal activities.

And now horror fans have the chance to own the infamous house – it was put up for sale on May10 for $1.15 million (£766,667).
