It depends on the vibe of the house.

The town of Newtown demolished the home that Adam Lanza, the Sandy Hook shooter, murdered his mother in. I guess they assumed no one would buy it.

I got a creepy, depressed vibe from just the pictures of that house. It's probably just as well that they tore it down.

Anyone know what became of the house in NW where the family was murdered a few years back?


It was sold and demolished. I assume they are rebuilding it from the ground up.


And now the property is up for sale. Would never purchase a property with such a tragic and sad history. RIP.


It’s too bad the owners can’t afford to make it a little playground.

Tony had the bright idea. Got that Georgetown apartment for a steal because of a murder and a little blood in the corner.





I was just thinking this!!! If it is good enough for DiNozzo...

I would be interested in knowing if cops, forensics teams, EMS, etc ever get weird vibes from these properties. I wonder if they get the creeps like some of the rest of us do.

If it's a famous unsolved murder and I can charge Web Sleuths dorks for tours, sure.

The house that the Goff sisters and father were murdered in is now on the market in Potomac, MD. I couldn't live there myself! 11629 Twining Lane, Potomac MD 20854

My answer was yes until I got to this part. The Newtown shooting was so sad, I would not want to live in his home. A domestic violence situation in the past would not be something I would dwell on.

Yeah I think it would depend on how famous and who was killed. The circumstances would matter to me.
I could definitely buy land that had once had a home that was the site of a terrible crime.

I wouldn't pay $12 for it.

I am curious if they have that my father died in our house, but it says you don't have to register a death in the house in VA. So who would know?
