Amityville Horror - In Search Of... - 2 of 3

Part 2 of 3.

A 1979 investigation into the Amityville Horror, done around the time the movie was released and before the talk of a possible hoax really started to gain popularity. This program is notable because it contains the only known on-camera interview by the priest who blessed the house (and who confirms his experiences in the house, despite what the Cromartys claimed in the later episode of "That's Incredible"). Also notable for containing rare glimpses of the Lutzes with their real children, filmed by the "In Search Of" crew. Discuss this case at www.amityvillefaq.com/truthboard/

Who lives there now? Wonder why nothing happened to the people who moved in after the Lutz family? Could it be because they are liars?

[FriendshipTown]

@Shizalumni Yes, it could be because they are lying. Or it could be that the subsequent owners are not "tuned-in" to the phenomenon. Or it could be that the forces followed the Lutzes when they left. Or the force may be dormant.

Is there a "Haunting Rule Book" that ghost must follow? Is it against the law for them not to haunt a certain location continuously?

[snakes3425]

The first thing I would've done when investigating the Haunting itself would be to check out the history of what was there prior to the House being built, clues to why the ghost was there would be if there had been if the land had been a graveyard, a Native American Burial Ground, or the site of a battle during the Indian Wars, the Revolutionary War or the War of 1812, a massacre, other murders, or Witch Burnings prior to the House being built

Love the creepy shots of the doll. These documentaries were often so much better than your average horror film.

[NeverDoubt1]

Oh yes because no child would ever sing in her own room and then stop in the hallway! It must be ghosts, the only explanation!

Cathy Lutz, what a cutie!

@FriendshipTown i guess i can see your point, and i didn't mean to come off as an asshole. if that was the case i apologize.secondly, i KNOW that there's life after death. i have a pic on my cell from last month where my sisters image showed up, and she passed away in March. i fully believe in ghosts after seeing that, but as for the whole demonic thing, i'm sorry, but i just don't believe that a demon can manipulate someone and POSSESS them. i guess nobody will ever know no matter what we think

[FriendshipTown]

A load of crap? Maybe. All I know is that I've dug into this case with an open mind for the past several years. I've discussed the pros and cons of this case with many people, including George Lutz and Rick Moran. It's been difficult, because quite honestly there seem to be a lot of frauds on both sides of the issue - those who believe and those who don't. But as I whittle away the myths and misconceptions surrounding this case, I just don't seem to come across any smoking gun.

[FriendshipTown]

@kissfansince82 I don't know why no one else has reported any paranormal incidents. I don't know why hauntings start or why they stop. Honestly, none of us do. There is no rule book for ghosts. We can't even prove that ghosts exist in the first place. And this certainly isn't the first reported haunting that stopped just as mysteriously as it began.

[kissfansince82]

@FriendshipTown maybe they just knew that gullible ass people would fall for it. explain to me why after the Lutz's, the next people to move in didn't experience a damn thing. no, the DEMON didn't follow them, it's just plain and simply a load of crap
