Everyone – or at least almost everyone – has seen or read The Amityville Horror or, at the very least, knows of it. But is it true?

Well, yes and no. The man who lived through it all – George Lutz – will readily admit that everything that happened in the book and the movie isn’t true. There was some poetic license taken, of course, like there is with most things. However, many of the things that were said to take place in that house actually did occur, and there were problems with the home long before Lutz moved in there.

The previous owner had killed his entire family because of the voices that he heard, and whether he was schizophrenic or whether there were actually malevolent spirits talking to him is something that’s going to be left up to debate for many years to come.
