Would you buy a home someone was murdered in?

Anonymous
There was a time I really wanted to buy and renovate a large historical house, but then I watched “the haunted mansion” with my kids and decided hell no. My husband saw a ghost of a young boy on an old property owned by fed government. Many others have seen the same ghost over time. He does not like to talk about it at all.

I don't think I would want that energy in the house. Though, Irma Goff remained in her Potomac home for years after her husband and three daughters were brutally murdered in the house.

Do you suspect the murderer is going to come back for you as well? Seems like a nothing-burger unless you buy into the whole ghost/spirit thing.

No way.

Wow, I was away at college during that time, and missed this story.
Incredibly scary, tragic, and depressing.
You have to be so careful about who you allow in your home.

What about death by suicide?

No. I watch to many shows where years later police officers find DNA evidence in the home to solve a crime.

Someone can be buried under your house right now, you just don't know it.

Never. Ever. Not even if it were free.

That’s different. I’d stay, too.

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.

Why not? The Amityvile Horror house sold not long ago

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