Amityville is synonymous with horror movies, but that's because of a real-life tragedy that happened on 13th November, 1974, when Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his parents and his four younger siblings. Initially, he claimed a mob hitman was responsible, but later confessed to the crimes. After the murders, newlyweds George and Kathy Lutz moved in to the DeFeo house, bringing along Kathy's three children and their dog, Harry. Within 28 days, however, they'd fled, claiming paranormal experiences on the property, from swarms of flies to visions of a demonic pig. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal what happened when the Lutzes took a polygraph test; explain how their story snowballed into first a bestselling book, then a movie franchise; and consider how the town has coped with its consequent celebrity status… Further Reading: • ‘Amityville Murders: The True Story Of The Killings That Inspired The Movie' (All Thats Interesting, 2022): https://allthatsinteresting.com/amityville-murders • 'The Amityville Horror House' (Long Island Guide): https://www.longislandguide.com/visit/amityville-horror-house/ • ‘THE AMITYVILLE HORROR' (MGM, 1979): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbCJv_vWyQA Love the show?

The Amityville Horror is a book published in 1977 by Jay Anson and then turned into a cult classic horror film franchise. The story is based on the experience of the Lutz family when they moved into a home in Amityville on Long Island, New York - a home that was the location of a familicide when Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his siblings and parents in 1974.

On December 18, 1975, George and Kathy Lutz moved their family into their new house on Ocean Avenue in Amityville, NY, where, just one year earlier, Ronald DeFeo Jr. had murdered all six members of his family. Twenty-eight days later, the Lutz family fled the home, leaving behind all their belongings and vowing never to return again. According to the Lutzes, their time in the house on Ocean Avenue was a nightmare of psychic attacks and demonic activity that put them in fear for their lives.The supposed experience of the Lutz family served as the basis for the iconic haunted house story, The Amityville Horror, and the countless films adapted from or inspired by the original novel. However, unlike most other stories of paranormal experiences, The Amityville Horror became a phenomenon that influenced everything from Ronald DeFeo's criminal defense to the American public's belief in the supernatural. Yet for all their talk of it being a genuine story of demonic activity, in the years since the publication of The Amityville Horror, a large body of evidence from skeptical evaluations to court records and interview transcripts suggest that America's most notorious haunted house might not have been quite so haunted after all.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!!ReferencesAnsen, Jay. 1978.

On the evening of November 13, 1974, twenty-three-year-old Ronald DeFeo Jr. burst through the door of Henry's Bar in Amityville, Long Island, frantically yelling for help and telling the patrons that someone had killed his parents. When a small group returned to the house with DeFeo, they discovered that not only had his parents, Louise and Ronald Sr., been killed, but so had his four brothers and sisters—all shot to death in their beds with a .35 caliber rifle.During a police interview that night, investigators became suspicious of Ronald DeFeo. Not only was his story of a mob hit difficult to believe, but he seemed incapable of keeping certain aspects of his story straight during the interview. The next day, DeFeo broke down and confessed to the murders, explaining that he had hated his father and telling investigators, “Once I started [shooting], I just couldn't stop.”Ronald DeFeo's trial was one of New York's biggest news stories of 1975 and attracted considerable attention due to his attempt to mount an insanity defense and his frequent outbursts in the courtroom. In the end, the defense was unsuccessful and DeFeo was convicted of the murders and sentenced to life in prison. DeFeo's conviction should have been the end of the story, but it turned out it was only the beginning of what would eventually become one of the most notorious supernatural claims in American history.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!!ReferencesCarter, A.J., Soper Susan , Dallas Gatewood, and Sam Washington. 1974.

In our annual Halloween episode, we discuss Dennis Depue, the inspiration for the creature in Jeepers Creepers. Like Depue, there have been many real-life cold-blooded killers who have inspired horror movies. These include Ed Gein, Ted Bundy, Gary Heidnik, John Wayne Gacy, and Ronald Defeo Jr., to name a few. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss Dennis Depue, a man who blamed his ex-wife for all his troubles. If there was a common theme in his life, nothing was his fault. He blamed his ex-wife Marilynn for leaving him and for his children siding with their mother. It culminated in 1990 when Dennis murdered Marilynn and dumped her body off the side of the road. But, it just so happened that a couple out for a drive saw him and phoned it into police as suspicious.

True crime and a haunted house? This week we take a look at the Amityville Horror story! In November of 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and murdered the other 6 members of his family in their home on 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. One year later, George and Kathy Lutz bought the home, and allegedly had some horrifying paranormal experiences there. They wrote a book, the book became a movie, and the rest is history! In this episode, John and I discuss the original movie starring James Brolin and Margot Kidder, the iconic nature of the house (and it's quarter round windows), the bizarre nature of the DeFeo murders, how much of the Lutz's story is fact and how much is fiction, and a personal familial connection I have to the house.

In the early morning hours of Nov. 13, 1974, one Amityville house in Long Island, New York was set on a course of infamy. It became a ghastly crime scene, when Ronald DeFeo Jr., with a rifle, killed his parents and four siblings while they slept. But it wasn't until after the Lutz family moved into the house, 1 month later in December of 1975 that the Amityville Horror is said to have truly begun. George and Kathy Lutz bought their dream house — but fled in terror within 28 days after incidents occurred that defied logic and reason.Anne Rzechowicz & Renata Daniel examine this case from multiple angles, reviewing the findings of many investigators from reporter, Laura DiDio, to paranormal researchers, Dr. Hans Holzer, Ed and Lorraine Warren and a Vampirologist? What is the real truth of this story? And who should we believe when even the priest involved in this case cannot keep his story straight?

Enter now for your chance to win a CreepTime giveaway! - https://www.creeptime.com/giveaways The Amityville hauntings are a series of alleged paranormal events that occurred in a house in Amityville, a small town in New York. In 1974, six members of the DeFeo family were found murdered in their home by Ronald DeFeo Jr., the eldest son. A year later, the Lutz family moved into the same house but fled just 28 days later, claiming that they were terrorized by a supernatural presence. The Lutz family reported a range of bizarre occurrences, including strange odors, unexplained noises, and ghostly apparitions. Some of the most chilling accounts involve the presence of an evil entity with glowing red eyes, which allegedly terrorized the family. While the Amityville hauntings remain a subject of intense debate among skeptics and believers, they have become a cultural phenomenon, inspiring numerous books, films, and documentaries over the years.

In this episode, we discuss The Amityville murders. The Amityville murders are one of the most infamous and controversial cases in American true crime history. In November 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed his entire family while they slept in their home on 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. The victims included his parents and four siblings. We deep dive into the murders, and the trail and discuss what really happened or what could have happened. This is a 3 part podcast, tune in and find out what we found out
We've heard the disembodied voice screaming, "GET OUT!" That means the new owner probably wants to move in. So, it's time to wrap this move up with a true story of a house oozing with evil! Wait, though. Is it really true, or is it all just a lot of hokum?George and Kathy Lutz just got a great deal on what they feel could be their dream home, paying well under market value. Kathy does seem a little concerned about the DeFeo murders, involving the deaths of six people within the house, just over a year prior. But houses don't have memories, do they?We discuss the first film adaptation of the 1977 book from Jay Anson, recounting the events that the Lutz family says they experienced during their twenty-eight days spent in the Dutch Colonial at 112 Ocean Avenue. Get ready to hear about as many cheap shocks and horror clichés as you can handle! It's billed as a true story, but did it really happen? I guess that we may never know. And maybe it's that uncertainty that makes The Amityville Horror (1979) so intriguing.
The Amityville Horror é um livro do autor americano Jay Anson, publicado em setembro de 1977, do qual se tornou o alicerce de uma série de filmes lançados a partir de 1979. A narrativa é baseada nas experiências sobrenaturais da família Lutz, mas gerou controvérsia e processos judiciais sobre sua veracidade. No dia 13 de novembro de 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. atirou e matou seis pessoas de sua família na 112 Ocean Avenue, uma grande casa colonial holandesa localizada no bairro suburbano de Amityville em Nova York. Ele foi condenado por assassinato em segundo grau em novembro de 1975 e sentenciado a seis penas de 25 anos a prisão perpétua. Um mês depois de sua sentença, George e Kathy Lutz, juntamente com seus três filhos, se mudaram para a casa. Após 28 dias agonizantes, os Lutzes finalmente deixaram a propriedade para trás, alegando ter sido aterrorizados por fenômenos paranormais enquanto moravam lá. No episódio de hoje, nossos investigadores Andrei Fernandes, Jey Carrillo e Gabi Larocca convidam Tati Regis e Daniel Pires do canal Daniel Pires, o Lenda para falar sobre o filme e fatos da obra que seguiu os passos de O Massacre da Serra Elétrica: O terror em Amityville foi criado com base na veracidade do livro de mesmo nome. Mas será mesmo que sua autenticidade é válida? E aí, você acha que a casa é realmente assombrada pelos ecos de um crime horrendo cometido nela? Diz aí para gente!
Psycho's and Sociopath's Ronald DeFeo Jr. The Amityville Horror
During the month of October, during the Halloween season, I have put together a series of the most terrifying and creepy real-life ghost stories, where you will hear about the unexplained paranormal and supernatural occurrences that have stained the pages of the history of the United States. This is the second story.Inside The Real Amityville Horror House And Its Story Of Murder And Hauntings: The quaint-looking house at 112 Ocean Avenue was the scene of the grisly DeFeo murders before the Lutz family claimed to endure paranormal terror there that inspired The Amityville Horror.In the early morning hours of Nov. 13, 1974, one Amityville house in Long Island, New York became more than a mere suburban home. Instead, it became a ghastly crime scene, as Ronald DeFeo Jr. skulked the halls with a rifle and killed his parents and four of his siblings in their sleep.Despite the widely-publicized 1974 killings, numerous families have since moved in and out of the house, now listed as 108 Ocean Avenue. Meanwhile, the purportedly paranormal occurrences that happened here have spawned a slew of books and films like The Amityville Horror, which have kept tourists flocking to the house ever since.Though DeFeo's grisly crimes were all too real, is it possible that he was actually under the control of evil spirits that inhabited the house and haunted the Lutz family that moved in soon after?

In November of 1974, a 23-year-old man ran into a bar on Long Island and exclaimed to the patrons that his mother and father had been murdered, only for them to find that his entire family had been massacred in their picturesque colonial-style house. With motives ranging from a mob hit to demonic possession, this investigation took the small coastal village of Amityville for a terrifying ride. This is the story of the DeFeo Massacre, also known as the Amityville Murders. BONUS EPISODES patreon.com/goingwestpodcast CASE SOURCES 1.

What is real in Hollywood movies that are "based" on a true story? As it turns out very little, but in this case the true crime may have been better than the supernatural, but maybe it easier to believe the paranormal would make someone kill their whole family instead of a human being that walked among others who never would have suspected. Amityville House of Horrors movie made millions of dollars, but it didn't quite happen like the movie.

TW: Violence, abuse, adult languageOn November 13th, 1974 Ronald DeFeo Jr ran into a local bar shouting, “PLEASE! You've got to help me! I think my mother and father are shot!” All 6 bodies of Ronald's family would be found murdered, face down in their beds. Were they asleep when they were attacked? Whoever killed them, must've gone systematically through the house, killing each of them with a large caliber rifle. But why did no one wake up? Could it be something more sinister lurking in the halls of 112 Ocean Avenue? When the Lutz family moved in 13 months after the murders, that's exactly what they say was experienced in the house. Soon, they had infamous paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren at the scene.We are now on Patreon!
