What would be the logical reason to rule it out just because a murder-suicide occurred there?

Because when my kid is eating cheerios I don't want to wonder if he is in the spot where someone blew their head off. When I tuck him in at night I don't want to wonder if it is the room where someone came in and stabbed a child to death or whatever happened.

PP said the logical reason. This is not a logical reason. This is a "my anxiety controls me" reason.

Are you a sociopath? You need to do a better job of hiding it. Most of your fellow beings without souls do a better job of pretending. You win at the superiority complex, but you still fail. Do better next time. You shouldn't be detectable.

New poster: Oh please.

Are you one too? The DC area is full of them and you are all the same.

Dine on the graves of the people in what was once a big building in New York? Toots, I hate to tell you, but you are dining on dead peoples' graves in your very own home. Native Americans lived here. Did you know that?

So that's a yes? I will get you the bubble bath and a reservation at the crash site. Enjoy your meal and your bath psycho.

If it gets me a 5 bedroom house with a high walk score close to a metro stop, I'm bringing the towel.

Me too.

Do you like the ghosts of children who have died from natural causes?

Yes. Those are welcome.

In response to some previous posters, on whether it's logical to avoid this house: if something makes you uncomfortable, it doesn't really matter what the logic is. If you're going to be uncomfortable, you shouldn't live there.

It sounds from this thread like plenty of people wouldn't mind, so they shouldn't have a problem finding a buyer.

I'm sometimes surprised how little I think about the previous occupants of my house, even though the house was 80 years old when we moved in. It just doesn't feel like the house existed before us, if that makes any sense.

I'm not sure how I would feel about this one. Murder/suicide is a lot of psychic baggage, but it was 10 years ago. I'm not a hippie/voodoo type, but maybe you could consider the house somewhat "cleansed" by time? I would go check it out and see how you feel. It's a cute place.
