In the early morning of November 13, 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed his mother, father, two sisters and two brothers in the family home at 112 Ocean Avenue. DeFeo claimed that he heard voices telling him to do it. All the victims were shot in their beds and were found laying face down. In November 1975, DeFeo was found guilty of six counts of second degree murder and was sentenced to 25 years to life for each one. The next month, George Lutz and his family purchased the home for $80,000 and moved in. The Lutz family began to experience paranormal activities that became so severe, the family fled after just 28 days......... The Lutzes story was the inspiration for a book titled "The Amityville Horror", which was later turned into a horror movie in 1979.
