On November 13, 1973, police received a frantic phone call that led them to a
nightmarish crime scene at the Defeo residence in Amityville, Long Island - an
entire family had been murdered in their beds while they slept.
In the days that
followed, Ronald Defeo eventually confessed to methodically killing his parents
and four siblings with a rifle, saying "voices" in the house drove him to the
massacre.
One year later, George and Kathy Lutz and their children moved into
the house thinking it would be their dream home. But soon the voices began
again. Sleepless nights. Numbing cold. Visions of a murdered little girl.
Then
George began to do what the voices told him... 28 days after moving in, the
Lutzes abandoned the residence - lucky to escape with their lives.
30 years
after the shocking real-life events that inspired one of the most popular horror
stories of all time, revisit the house that started it all: "The Amityville
Horror."
