I drove 7 hours to go and see the amityville house a few years ago. I was shocked how close the house was to the surrounding neighbors on both sides of it. It just looked like a normal beautiful house that wasnt that large as depicted in the movies. Makes me really wonder how no one heard shots going off the night of the defeo murders

[@laurelmellon1695]

[@RonSch123]

This video really makes you think. Freaky, personal, and explainable but funny side story. I was visiting my grandparents back in about late 70's and was in their finished basement and finally finished reading the book. I went upstairs to the dark first floor and freaked out/hit the floor since I was sure Jody the Pig was looking right at me through the window over the kitchen sink. Turns out it was a reflection off double pane glass of a lighted orange switch behind me. Scary as hell for a 14 year old, but comical 40 years later.

Before I watched this documentary, I was leaning towards the opinion that the Lutzses made the thing up. But this interview convinces me. Kathy Lutz is dying here, of a respiratory disease, and is probably finding it physically difficult to talk. Why would she give this interview if it weren't true? Why would she waste what precious little time she had left if it was a lie? This interview sounds like a dying person giving their last testimony.

[@67marlins81]

Read Dr. Stephen Kaplan's book. You'll like it, and it will convince you this is a hoax.

[@vermilliongecko]

67marlins But that doesn't answer my question.

[@67marlins81]

The Lutzes couldn't very well, at any point in their lives, let go of the haunting narrative. They could not risk the lawsuits that may have come if they'd admitted it was a hoax. I really think you should read Dr. Kaplan's book. The San Francisco chronicle first broke the story in August 1979 that this was a made-up story, where Attorney William Weber played an unwitting part in giving momentum to the Lutz's story.

[@vermilliongecko]

67marlins I will try and find the book, but no-one was holding Kathy Lutz at gun point to re-tell this story. It was hardly going to affect her for much longer. And she was quite religious, and would not have wanted to go to her grave telling a lie that put her mortal soul in peril (I'm not religious myself, but I believe that that's what she believed).

[@Rollimggiant]

The flies can be explained from a forensic perspective. There were 6 damn bodies in that house. For 48 hrs with the heat on. The maggots came and reproduced. The house sat empty with the Defeo furniture still inside and the maggots reproduced and calonized in the house. In the sewing room there was 2 boys bodies no wonder so many flies in that room. It was December and my guess the flies took over the heating ducts I believe no doubt that the house had an evil energy. How could it not? With what happened there. But some of the issues are explained as well.

[@novelist99]

The flies couldn't have lived for a year without a food supply. Plus, it was winter. A fly infestation accompanies certain demons.

The book came out when I was 16 and I had no problem believing it because my family lived in an extremely haunted house. The haunting was daily from 4 spirits. The basement held so much terror for all of us. The last time I went in the basement I could feel hands all over me and the presence of evil was overwhelming. I ran up the stairs with those invisible hands touching me only to see the door slam shut and lock. I couldn’t open it and screamed and pounded on the door, waiting for what felt like eternity for someone to open it up and let me out.

[@MaybeASupra]

I believe that this is true... I've encountered something when I found and bought this book of Amittyville Horror in a book store catching my attention because it says it is a true story. I brought it home and read it in one sitting on our living room. I don't know but I felt the fear when I was reading... I've fallen asleep and was awaken because I felt something was staring at me adding the freezing temperature inside our home that is unusual. When I looked at the clock it was exactly 3:15am... I felt spooked. But didn't gave meaning to it. Until it became like a habit, waking up exactly on the same hour for the next consecutive days. I also had this experience where I saw a large fly hovering above my head and was persistent to fly above me. There was also bad stench that you can smell and I keep ignoring it. One time I was actually listening to the radio, when I saw someone walk passed on the window then the radio stopped working...then it played a distorted sound of the Spice Girl's song saying "If you wanna be my lover?..." then I immediately pulled the plug because the voice was evil. Then the floor I was standing felt like there was a fire that I jumped out of it because I felt that it burned my feet. I was so curious about the story that I shared it to my classmates and invited them to come and stay for a night.... They have felt the extreme cold inside our house and when we tried to voice record, we can hear the background but we can't hear our voices. After sometime, when I'll be inside the bathroom near the kitchen I can hear someone is pulling a chair outside. When I tried to look there'll be no one outside. The worst is when I started to have nightmares, seeing a dark entity in a hood and I would just froze. It will leave when I spoke the name of Jesus. Then on the 24th of December 2004, 28 days after I read the book... I felt so weak that I started puking when I woke the same hour 3:15 am... I got hospitalized and the doctors can't diagnose what was happening to me. I have no fever, or whatsoever but I felt so cold inside. My brother visited me asking what happened. He then asked me if I was okay, he also felt the spooked coz he too have read the book and told me that he would feel uncomfortable when he is alone inside our house as if somebody is watching. He told me to throw away the book coz he think that it was cursed or demonic. I told him that it was inside my cabinet, and told him to burn it. But when he got home, he didnt find it in my cabinet. We searched the whole house and until now it wasn't found. Few years later, I saw on the internet of the book of Amittyville and was shocked to see the exact replica of the book I had once.. There was the same tear or chipped on the cover page of the book like when I found it on the store. If there's good there is also evil... And I've never experienced things like this before. Some people would be skeptical but not until they experienced the terror that they would start to believe. But in Jesus name, may these bad spirits be cast out and return to where it belongs.

[@thedys70]

Rich, that is quite a story indeed!

[@marymorningstar4508]

My first husband and I once lived in a haunted house that we rented and I understand perfectly what they are saying. They are not lying. One of the things that Mrs Lutzes said about how they had been practicing transcendental meditation caught my attention. She even realized it may have opened a door. When you empty your mind and practice this form of meditation there is that no telling what can come in uninvited. You are opening doors to lower realms where evil spirits can find an opening. Hinduism has many many gods. There are many lower gods of this world and they are not the ones you want.

[@Tima38Killjoy]

I just finished the book 'High Hopes' and the book ' The night the Defeo's died' There are so many documentaries, movies, and books that it is hard to come to any idea as to what really happened with the Defeo and Lutz families.

[@keithbell9348]

This may be significant. But when Cathy Lutz, near the end of this segment, wondered if the practice of TM may have played a role in them being harassed by evil spirits, It brought back to memory something someone told me he had learned from a Sadghuru, a religious instructor in Hinduism. This teacher would frown upon many so called "certified" TM instructors. One reason is because of their inexperience in the spiritual aspect of TM. In particular the chanting ritual aspect involved. He was told, that when you invoke these various chants or mantras, you better know what you are doing. Because in some chants, you are summoning the names of demons.

[@MsSmudge14]

Our world is certainly mind boggling, with events we can't understand. When I saw Mrs. Lutz being so sick, it brought tears to my eyes. She looked just like she did, after waking up one night in the house, like an old woman. It's harmed or killed and caused divorces that are very sad. I wish the truth was known. What can we do about the incredible phenomena that existed there? Transformations from entities, personality changes etc. I'm sure it will happen to others in the future, but when?

Although in an interview w Butch in prison he stated the Lutzs knew him, not sure if I believe that. I lived in a house that was not haunted and then became haunted when my grandfather died there, so it depends on the people too not just the house or location. Lutzs were into some interesting alternative open minded spiritual realms from what I’ve read so that could have had an attraction for any paranormal activity directed to them specifically coupled w the houses negative over tones.

As much as I would love to believe that the Lutz clan made this all up, I somehow sense sincere truth to their claim. The more I research, the more I end up leaning towards them. I studied their expressions throughout the entire clip, as well as others, and they exhibit the tell tale signs of persons speaking the truth. They even passed lie detectors with no problems. Who knows what else occurred on this land, in that house, over the decades prior (and after for that matter). We will never fully know. And of those families occupying the residence afterwards, who's to say they did not posses a strong faith and used every resource possible to exorcise what ever was there out, once and for all?

I found a few truths which are backed up by actual facts of this case and very surprisingly lean toward paranormal occurrences which is never good.

One family said the 'sewing room' was cold due to lack of ventilation from the unit. This is 1970. Old hhome. Radiators and vents were the norm in older homes - Supplied by units (especially in new England) via coal or oil . . . I lived in one in NH fore years. The butler closet and strage rooms were always cold - No vents.

Wouldnt if the house went crazy funiture moving the last night , would the furniture be out of place not in the way they left it

[@MakeupFeen101]

people have to realize That NOT EVERYONE will expirience a haunting. Take it as you please but some people are more sensitive then others. Just keep an open mind. Once you step out of the box you'll see that theirs a whole universe waiting to be discovered...

Hey i just want to know one thing. I am just confused i am making my own videos. I need your help to understand copyrights. If this is the property of history channel, how come we can upload this video without any copying violations? Can i also use some of the content like this?

[@BewareTheEffigy]

I don't really know enough about it tbh as I uploaded this documentary years ago. I suppose it's fine to use as long as you aren't profiting from the content etc. Check the KZbin guidelines to be sure.

[@rebekahfield4083]

The movie doesn't do this justice, the Producers and Directors went down an 'incest story' trek, ruining the plot with their sick minds. No claims anything like that appear here. I got rid of that movie, seeing the documentary here I could sit down with coffee and a pack of crisps and enjoy this as 'real' horror. I am so glad this was put together.

Hi WickedTornado. I think if people are disturbed they can imagine all sorts are happening to them. I do believe that families, especially if there is alot of dysfunction, can feed off of each other. I think that's where the problems lie. If they then connect these feelings and thoughts to an object, be it a toy, piece of furniture or a house they will. I think some are too sensitive to the suggestion of places being a problem. The Lutz family were crooks making money out of a tragic crime.

[@KitsuneAdorable]

Probably the reason why they (George & Kathy) didn't at any time tell the media why they left the house was because they couldn't agree on which story to use.

[@georgetreepwood1119]

The hidden red room - Smuggling in the 1920's Red ? That was the cheapest paint you could get years ago - that's why barns are red...That house was like that house was like Gatsby's house perfect for the purpose... and perhaps purpose built.

[@Rollimggiant]

When Ronnie used heroin and killed his entire family in that house you don't believe that created negative energy in 5he home at the very least? I think the negative energy was there from the beginning Indian burial ground. Im Native and have seen so many paranormal entities in my life. Some people just are effected more and intune to that type of spiritual life. The Catholic church would not agree it happened if it was a hoax. I pray the Defeos made theit peace and found their way and that energy left.i myself would never set foot in a home where such violence happened.

I just read an interesting article by a reporter who was in the house the night of the "seance.' Very interesting and had some things I had never read before. Like many of them stayed the night and before they went to bed, they rifled through the Lutz's desk and found book deals to publishers offering to leave the house in exchange for a book deal. That says it all right there. So leave the house for alot of money and leave all their stuff. Umm hmmm.

[@67marlins]

You've got excellent eyes, but it's an illusion: That attic bedroom with the quarter-moon windows was Ronnie Jr's, and photos have shown his wall paper was white background with red and blue polka-dots. So you're seeing the large dots as the circle of each '6', that's all. I bought the VHS copy of this show from The History Channels's online store, maybe you can buy the DVD these days. Have a Merry Christmas, btw. Kurt from Massachusetts.

[@liznavarych7880]

They used the Defo furniture with the house. same beds different mattress but isn't that weird?

Liz Navarych I did not know that.. I would have gotten rid of any prior residents stuff..sleeping in the same bed? 😦... not a good idea 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@matta5365]

You are right. They did keep some of the Defeo family furniture in the home as well as the beds minus the mattresses that were obviously blood soaked. Its a VERY STRANGE thing to do.

[@chrislemaster2695]

They purchased the furniture from the Defeo estate for 1500.00 I think. This is fact I've Studied this since I was 12 years old.

[@runlarryrun77]

I have looked closely. Its a little boy not an adult. Yes the flash is glinting from something. Its reflecting from his eye. Just like dogs + cats a human's retina can reflect light. Because our pupils are smaller than other mammals the phenomenon is less frequent. You're correct no reporter(s) remembered anything of the sort that night. I did say it wasn't noticed until later, Oh well.

[@christoperburke8380]

This wasn't a hoax I was related to a neighbor on that street George was more into the occult which is vaguely mentioned but on a much deeper level than said.George mixed with the murders set that off.

[@wetholeandslickpole]

Your lying. You just watched a the sons documentary.

[@BoBoNoir-888]

great

[@sarahhales1505]

One of the step sons has come out and said that George was abusive to them, and not the best person ever. He says that George was dabbling in the occult at the time, and believes that George himself might have opened the door for whatever bothered them. This is of course if any of it is actually true.

[@mercenaryknight5419]

Though, if true, that angle of occult, why did it never come up before. Also, his brother's testimony differs in aspects.

[@zazaramah7926]

The reason there are no more reports of being attacked by evil in the house.. is because no other family has stayed there.. duhh.

You can also see a man in that same window. He has a long mustache and he looks mad. Right above the white box or whatever that is in the window.

I think it's been reported that that ghost boy pic is a fake. If you look closely you can tell it's light reflecting off the person's glasses. I think most people think it was a researcher who got caught in the pic. The reporter said he remembers nothing of that sort happening that night.

[@mr.adventure0142]

@@MaryGIrlMoody Oh come on - their parents have surely burned this story into their minds, over and over and over again so that they could belive it and tell others about it. You know that, George and Kathy Lutz got so drunk after a few bottles of red wine and told a "star" lawyer who bought this fairy tale from them for a lot of money - that's fact - total nonsence, the only thing that was real about the case, is the murder of the whole DeFeo's family and that their eldest son was drugged and delusional and had killed his whole family at that night in 75.

Did you know that There is a good project of Antique Dealers it wont matter If its a haunted house or not that wont matter to them is They can buy old houses at bottom low prices. What they do is, they buy old houses not for the houses But for the antique wood, because when its 50 years old Its already an antique and an antique the older it gets The more expensive it becomes, so what they do Is tare up the old houses and turn the old antique wood Into furniture and sell them as antiques for a fortune. That's what I would do to this house. (The dark story that happened behind this house was, according to the strory,"The devil decieved the murderer, who said he heard whispers alegedly coming form members of his family who he said conspired to kill him, so that drove him to kill them all.", which was of course the devil's deception, because Devil-means slanderer, he slanders man vs man and man vs Elohim and causes havoc on earth turning man vs man and man vs Elohim.", Smith's Bible Disctionary) So if anyone have thoughts of killing because they are thinking of killing you, one must pray about it and trust in Yhuwah not do anything evil that could cost you to commit murder. The Word says, "Dont let your anger lead you to sin." Sometimes anger builds up because one counts or keeps a record of wrongs, until it builds up to a breaking point where one can not take it anymore and then errupts like a volcano and causese the death of everyone around him. So be aware or Beware of the Devil's schemes for he wants your soul to be damned or condemned.. The Word says, "Do not keep a record of wrongs. Forgive and you shall be forgiven." Pray in tongues, if you don;t know how, YOU CAN UTTER ANY SYLLABLE BUT YAHUWAH KNOWS WHAT YOU ARE UTTERING ONLY YAHUWAH UNDERSTANDS YOU. THE DEVIL CANT UNDERSTAND YOU, stick your tongue out and just utter LA-LA-LA-LA-LA . .. LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-ALA . . .
