It is a beautiful home. But I could never live there, knowing what happened.

What happened inside wasn't limited to one room. Practically everywhere you look in that house involved the massacre. The mother was killed in the living room. The three boys were killed in two separate upstairs bedrooms. The grandmother was killed in the upstairs bathroom (it's theorized she hid in there because it was the only room that had a lock but Brad broke the door down and got her like Jason Voorheis in Friday the 13th). The bodies were placed in the bathtub then dragged down the stairs and hauled into the family station wagon in the backyard. If you know all this and STILL want to live in that house, more power to you. But don't expect me to visit you.

A family moved into that house three years ago. The mother waited until they unloaded everything before telling her kids about the history of the house.

Yep, never quite got the point of authorities knocking houses down when there is nothing wrong with them structurally. Most houses likely have dead bodies from battles buried deep underground, most have probably had people die in them. There are a lot of people looking for housing & lots of homeless people, it makes no sense to demolish buildings just because something unpleasant happened there.

so if something terrible like mass murder happens there and people report seeing ghosts

would you buy that house and live in it? :eek:

I would not, but it does raise an interesting question about current occupants of the houses...I assume some, but not all, are aware of the history.

I would guarantee that anyone who moved into those houses would have no idea about their history.

That is most likely true at the time they move in, since UM is such an old show...but wouldn't the neighbors know about the history and mention it at some point?

I'm picturing someone getting that news when engaging in idle chat with their new neighbor..."I'm having a yard sale Saturday, my kid had a piano recital today, oh and by the way someone was brutalized in your house back in 1987" :eek:

If the price was right, yes! A friend of mine, her parents bought a home on a lake in a very expensive area, but got the house for very cheap because the previous owner committed suicide in the basement and no one wanted to live there.

Sure, it is just bricks & mortar-I am sure a lot of us have lived in homes where people have died or there were battles there before it was housing. As for ghosts I believe there are only haunted people, not haunted places.

If it was an very old and/or solved case and it wasn't a macabre tourist attraction (like the Amityville house), sure.

If it was one of the homes where EAR/ONS attacked residents and likely kept tabs on them years later, no sale.

OMG, the EAR attack homes....I agree 100%. I could NOT live there!

I live not too far from the Bernardo/Homolka house and it got bulldozed. The neighbours were happy, they said people were driving by constantly, headlights all night long, because people wanted to get a glimpse of the house.

There are definitely a few houses I couldn't live in. Like Ariel Castros home (which was a dump anyway). I would buy Paul Flores' house. I wouldn't move it, though, I'd have the excavators ready for the closing date to dig up that backyard!

I would rent out the duplex where Kurt Sova was last seen alive and then would make the basement section of it my bedroom where I'd want it to be pitch-black for bedtime.

No one is moving into the duplex where Greg Webb murdered Anna Anton because that got demolished in 2008

Depends. It would really be based on what my impressions of the house were when I entered it. I've been in houses and other places before where you can feel something is just simply "off" and you aren't able to put your finger on it. It's unexplainable but it's happened to me before.

If someone died a horrible death in a house (such as murder, or even suicide, which is also terrible) and I knew about it beforehand, it would most definitely make me pause and really pay close attention to what the feel of the house was. I truly believe that when awful things happen it places, it can leave a lasting impression.
