In 1974, the town of Amityville, New York, was haunted by a series of murders by Ronald DeFeo Jr., who confessed to murdering his parents and four children at a house known as 112 Ocean Ave., according to the History Channel.
The DeFeo's house was sold to a man named George Lutz in 1975, who moved in with his family. The Lutz family claimed the home was haunted and left after 28 days of living there, according to the History Channel.
The story inspired a novel and two films called "The Amityville Horror."
The home where the 1974 murders occurred is now known as 108 Ocean Ave., according to the New York Daily News. In 2016, the supposedly haunted home was listed for sale, and its Zillow listing shows it was purchased in 2017.
