My great-grandmother worked in the real Amityville house, but I don't remember what she did there right now. This was before the son murdered his family and everything, but still, it's a kinda cool family history thing.
My favorite parts are all the lawsuits over the Amityville 'haunting', where the Lutzes, the new owners of the house, and the Lutzes' lawyer, and their writer all started suing each other...
One of the families who lived there after the Lutzes finally got fed up with the constant looky loos and had the exterior remodeled so that you can't tell it the same house anymore.
