snopes says the house was not haunted... anyone care to comment?


Yeah. The Amityville hoax was debunked a while back, but it caused such a big stir in the media people refuse to accept that the house was never haunted. The inhabitants of the house were just a little crazed because of the fact that people were murdered there and that it would be very believable that there were poltergeists haunting the location.

However, I've read in several non-fiction ghost books that the Amityville was a hoax. I think of it more as a legend that can be interpreted however you like.

From the distance that the photo was taken, it does appear to be one of the boys. When I zoomed in on the picture, I saw something completly different. It appears to be somebody wearing glasses and it actually looks like and older person,not a child.

I dont think the picture was meant to be a hoax. I think it was just somebody there that poked there head out and nobody knew they were caught on film.

On crimelibrary.com it say this...

"He quietly pushed aside the door to their room and momentarily observed them as they slept, unaware of the horror at the foot of their bed. Then, without hesitation, Butch raised the rifle to his shoulder and pulled the trigger, the first of 8 fatal shots he would fire that night. This first shot ripped into his father’s back, tearing through his kidney and exiting through his chest. Butch fired another round, again hitting his father in the back. This shot pierced the base of Ronald, Sr.’s spine, and lodged in his neck.


Louise DeFeo, victim
By now, Louise DeFeo had roused herself, and had barely a few seconds to react before her son began to fire upon her. Butch aimed the weapon at his mother as she lay prone on her bed, and fired two shots into her body. The bullets shattered her rib cage and collapsed her right lung. Both bodies now lay silently in fresh pools of their own blood.

Despite the distinct snap of each rifle shot, no one else stirred in the house. Butch quickly surveyed the destruction he had wrought, before resuming his massacre of the innocent. His two young brothers, John and Mark, would be the next victims of Butch’s murderous sense of self-righteousness and rage.


Mark & John Mathew DeFeo, victims
He entered the bedroom the two boys shared and stood between their two beds. Standing directly above his two helpless brothers, Butch fired one shot into each of the boys as they lay sleeping. The bullets tore through their young bodies, ravaging their internal organs, laying waste to the lives that lay ahead of them. Mark lay motionless, while John, whose spinal cord had been severed by his brother’s heartless attack, twitched spasmodically for a few moments after the shooting. Again, the shots had not roused the only remaining members of the DeFeo family, and Butch skulked unchallenged to the bedroom his sisters Dawn and Allison shared. Dawn was the closest in age to Butch, while Allison was in grade school with John and Mark.


Allison & Dawn DeFeo, victims
As Butch entered the room, Allison stirred and looked up just as he lowered the rifle to her face and pulled the trigger. His youngest sister was murdered instantly. Butch aimed his weapon at Dawn’s head as well, literally blowing the left side of her face off."

John, who is the one who most resembles the boy in the picture, is also the only one who didn't die instantly... bit of a coinsidence???

Mark lay motionless, while John, whose spinal cord had been severed by his brother’s heartless attack, twitched spasmodically for a few moments after the shooting.

just me that thinks thats strang????

Well heres the thing. Theres kinda a few parts to this story.First off the defeo murders.Its been a few years now since i was kinda studying this whole thing.

The murders would have to be the first party of this story.Now im not sure but i think it was after the murders that the warrens went in and did their"investigation".

Now apparently the warrens were offering special access to more photos from the shoot if you were to pay them money or something.But anyways it may have been before the warrens or after the warrens came onto the scene that the lutz came and made these stories.

But there is alot more to this story that alot of people dopnt know. or atleast details that have something to do with the amityville but not really.Like there is more cases of poltergiests and "hauntings" in the immediate area such as the location of te house or girl rather involved in inspiring the poltergiest movie,not that im really sure but yeah.

The area in which amityville takes place(i forget the area) was host to a number of slaughterings which happened to the native american people in the area much longer before these events.Where the natives were driven out of the area and slaughtered in order for others to take the land.

Much speculation about the defeo murders comes from perhaps an idea that the son who killed everyone may have been possessed.I think the defeos built the house or were one of the first families there im not sure. but yeah. There are alot of different parts to this story not just the lutz supposed fairy tale.
