remember that a man who was a popular principal of a local school didn't find out until after he bought a house in Silver Spring that there'd been a double murder there. (Sad coincidence, he himself was murdered while at home in that house.)


umm, that's terrifying! I wouldn't live there


A very scary coincidence.


I think it's important to note that the principal was killed by people he invited into the house through an online sex/chat line. A horrible tragedy, but it's not like murderers are targeting the house.

I didn't believe in ghosts until I spent some time in that house.


Tell us more. Sounds fascinating. I love ghosts stories. What happened there?

When we lived in the deep south, a house in our neighborhood had a murder occur in it. And it was never solved.

Call the local police station. They will have "case" on file if it happened after they transferred into the electronic copies.

I wonder if you called the local police precinct if they could search for any service calls from that address.

I remember that a man who was a popular principal of a local school didn't find out until after he bought a house in Silver Spring that there'd been a double murder there. (Sad coincidence, he himself was murdered while at home in that house.) At any rate, I remember reading that he was very upset to learn about the homicide, and I also remember some discussion about whether realtors are required to disclose this sort of information. Sorry, I don't actually remember if the law requires or doesn't require disclosure.

OP here, she has checked the address but found nothing, however, the house was abandoned and she found yellow tape that police used for crimes in the basement. She is going to see if a neighbor can provide some info before signing the contract.

Do a google search for related news.

Then tell you friend to stop watching American Horror Story.

Why does she think that? Have you tried google the address?

I bet if you talk to the neighbors they'll be happy to talk about it.

A friend of mine is interested in a house, but she thinks something happened there. Her realtor said that there is not way to know. Is this true?
