No wonder they didn't want to do interviews. He's treating them like idiots
yes he was.
shay cade he being rude an condescending
kqnaa yes I believe theme.
kqnaa I belive the house is hunted becuse when that many people are MUDER .there will be activitie in the house .idk if I belive everything that happen to them .but I still didn’t like the way the reporter was treating them
They were idiots. Read the books if you believe any of it. They took a mass murder and shat over the memory of that family.
from 1979. a rare piece. thanks for uploading!
I just saw this. We used to go by this house to my Grandma's house!!!! My Grandma lived in Amityville. Every time we went by this house, I would tell my mom, "That house is scary!!!!". I knew it when I was 5 YEARS OLD!!!!! I would have nightmares about this house when I was little. I knew there was something going on back when I was little, but my mom didn't believe me until the book came out. I'm so glad my Grandma finally moved and went to Florida!!!!! We never went by that house again!!!!
That's interesting...kids have intuition. I have dreams of that house ever since I heard of this story in October 1993.
@@joshuaecht I have nightmares of that house!!! No one can tell ME that house is NOT haunted!!!!! STILL gives me the heebee jeebees!!!!
‘Amityville Horror’ killer Ronald DeFeo dead in prison at 69 on March 15 2021 that’s crazy
My opinion and I have "abilities" the only thing that was ever evil in that house was Ronald Defeo Sr Ronald Defeo Jr and George Lutz. Their all gone. That house is at peace now. I still wouldn't live there or go in.. I have been outside. I'm not crazy. My husband would kill me if I bought anything home. Our home is clean of spirits. Not up for discussion what I can see.
@@joshuaecht That's true
Kathy is so beautiful!!!!
And a complete fucking liar.
@@PhilipDrownShe was hot, but unfortunately a liar too.
@@Don.1984 got any receipts?
With that soft melodic "Good Morning America" music we see flashes of the Amityville House. *NICE!*
Contrast!
I believe them this is an average American family got a hell of a deal on this house only paid 80 grand spent there life savings and WALKED AWAY after 28 day's something or someone scared the hell out of these people no American family just walks away .
Didnt they re sell the house
100%
No, the bank repossessed the house. The Lutz’s lost everything!
All of the money the Lutz's made from this BS story and movie, made up for all of the lost possessions and house they walked away from.
@@Don.1984 They made very little money.
*The DeFeo massacre was the true 'horror'.*
*The neighbors claim they never saw or heard a thing.... Which is still pretty bizarre, considering none of them heard 9 shotgun blasts - at spaced intervals and in the nighttime! Think about these true facts.*
Eight gunshots.
And, the neighbours DID hear gunshots. They were being conditioned to silence by Suffolk County authorities, so that they could properly orchestrate a solid story against Butch DeFeo that contradicted the true details.
The then neighbours came out about it decades later.
Yes! The way the bodies were all laying in nearly the same position, shot by a .35 Marlin Rifle which is a loud gun, my grandpa has one, and no one heard anything? Like idk there's something weird about the murders themselves for sure.
The neighbors only heard the DeFeo's dog, Shaggy, barking!
It is ironic that the Lutz "Hauntings" can be more easily explained then the Defeo murders.
the son was a drug addict, and the father was a bully and ogre. Years of resentment. Add rinse, repeat.
Yes. The killer, Ronald J.DeFeo, Jr. died on March 12, 2021. The author, Jay Anson,(who also wrote "666" another allegedly haunted house) died March 12,1980. I don't know what, if anything, to believe about the so-called haunting, but the movie scared me!
Imagine being so emotionally turned off that you can sleep in a room knowing people were murdered and sending your children to rooms where kids their age were shot and killed
@The Darkness Came right and other furniture... supposedly it was furnished with their things. NO WAY would I have kept a thing
I would never.. I wouldn't buy a house knowing a person died of natural causes in it. I have no respect for Kathy Lutz. I know she passed away doesn't mean I have to agree with what she's done to her children with this man she married.
@@dana_brooke_27 That's you, you blame people for the decisions they make. They obviously didn't know the events that would occur after they bought the house
@@Jadedyxy Yeah cuz you know me so well. After thinking about it and doing a lot of research ... It was all BS. Get a life🙄
@@dana_brooke_27 This man dabbled in the occult, satanism to be exact. He opened the doorway to demonic attacks I'm Sorry for my comment, you're right in your opinion. He put put his children through hell.
Kind of strange but I talked to George Lutz Personally and it Definitely happened.
Please share your conversation with Mr. Lutz with us if you want to..
Is he old.. Please tell me
@@magnolia3521 George and Kathleen are no longer with us.
What definitely happened? That they fabricated a horror story for a capital venture?
@Sally Richardson you can shake your head all you want but it's been proven that people can pass polygraphs while lying through their teeth. Why do you think the results are rarely admissible in court?
I'm a psychology major and I study human behavior. They don't show typical behaviors people exhibit when they lie.
@trha2222 Exactly what they said. What kind of question is that?
I've experienced some weird things myself and there may not be a good explanation of what what's George and Kathy Lutz family experienced in the Amityville Horror house back in the early 80s.
Yes but consider by the time they have done this particular interview, they've already done a book and probably countless interviews. This interview is not a good test for that.
ACK Preacher i don’t see how they would lie about something as terrifying as that
@@markhothi5183 They don't need a psychology major to diagnose them they passed the lie detectors test with flying colors
Skepticism is natural.
The occupants who moved in after the Lutz's left, not experiencing weird occurances, is in and of itself, not proof, that the Lutz family is lying. It isn't the house. The house is made of wood, concrete, plastic, prefab materials. Nothing more, nothing less. It's what occupied those surroundings to mess with the Lutz family. It is an intelligence that determines for itself where and WHEN it so chooses to manifest itself and in what matter. For reason that we cannot understand
The intro with the scene of the creepy looking house shown the with good moring wake up music is priceless!
I must like fried eggs because the image reminds me of them(the three circles):-)
Creepy! I believe them.
It is creepy Bryan I believe the Lutz Family.

Each to their own opinion. I certainly believed the Lutz’s. Strange and sad (they later divorced 💔 too) how they both died quite young & within 2 years of each other in the ‘Noughties decade’ ..... Kathy first. Long may they Rest In Peace ✌🏼🌹🕊💫
I have no doubts that this isn’t a hoax , I come back to this all the time - we will never know the truth exactly but there’s something there
I completely agree with you about Amityville. My gut tells me there is something a lot more nuanced than a binary “it was a hoax or it was not a hoax”. Something happened. (probably not quite what was described by Jay Anson though, in my opinion).
I believe them. I think certain people can attract energies, the paranormal. The fact that nobody has experienced "paranormal" since does not dismiss this family's accounts.
Really? How come not? And if they attract the paranormal, why hasn't the events followed them?
The novel is awesome! It's really frightening, you know, you can feel that weird feeling as you're reading the book.
I have the book and i felt the same emotion as what the Lutz family endured
Really ? I never got my hands on it and was an avid reader. I'm a big Anne Rice fan, but I real a lot of different stuff. I think I'll pick this book up. Of all the books I read only one book came close to ever spooking me. That was The Shinning. That is the only book. I grew up not far from Amityville, but close to the south shore of Long Island. I know people used to go driving around and would look at various houses. We never really believed any of that, but I thought we had gone on a drive like that once. I also spoke to someone who was in jail with Ronnie DeFeo and they told me he's a junkie, always sniffing dope (heroin) in jail whenever he can and he's been like that for years. He's told so many stories he's basically a compulsive lier.
The book has given me nightmares since I first read it when I was 20. I'm 50 now and I still sometimes have bad dreams about it. I'm only ever interested or frightened about things that are true stories, or are supposed to be. Fictional scary books dont interest me in the least. The only book I've ever read that scared me more than Amityville is a book called "The Devil in Connecticut ". It also involves Ed and Loraine Warren. The psychic investigators who were involved with Amityville. Absolutely terrifying.
James Brolin himself said the book gave him the creeps, too.
Jay anson is a writer..he probably made things up along the way..at the end of the book..ooze was running down the walls, doors ripped off, windows smashed, yet, the new owners brought the property..there was nothing wrong with the house..
After the Lutz's, the Cromarty's lived their for 10 years - No issues,
Nuff said.
Maybe the spook just didnt like the lutz's 🤔
@@liz3424 probably. the kids certainly didn't like george.
@@Jim_Stark "Jody doesn't like George!" 😉
@@dsmith9964 nobody liked george apparently. but for good reason.

And damn, James Brolin is a giant. It looks like he's sitting next to two little kids.
I love how Hartman can't even hide his skepticism.
Neither could James Brolin.
@@bonniemagpie1552 🤣🤣🤣
I would have loved to have interviewed them myself.
It smells like poop, and looks poop, well it's 💩.
Nothing wrong with being skeptical, but that doesn't in itself debunk anything.
I dont think they lied about a thing, I feel sorry for them even though they have both passed on now, give the family a break now. I know that house is evil, I wouldnt live in it.
Hanging on to every word. This family was horribly treated. If you think of Poltergeist rather then a haunting, people do report slim like substance. Recently, a family in Indiana, I believe were having frightening experiences. It was in the paper. Police were called, believed it. The boy was taken to the ER. The RN and social worker witnessed a terrifying event and called a Priest to come to the hospital. My point, Mrs. Lutz was right about the reason for sharing their story. Today it is very excepted and people actually look for an experience like this. They were brave.
It was in the news. You can Google it for the newspaper articles. Im a huge skeptic but do not think the the treatment was fair by any means.
I have watched a lot of news reports and a documentary on the Gary, Indiana home and family. Interesting especially, from the view point of the 30 yr police veteran and nurse and Social worker. check it out.
Yihla Moja : I saw that about the family in Indiana. Scary as Hell.
They were full of complete, utter sh#t! If people don't realise by now that the Lutz story was an utter crock of crap...
They were scam artist and deserved all the ridicule they got. They made their money
Whether its real or not. I read the book and it scared the hell out of me!
Yes, the book was scarier than hell. Too bad the movie blew!
Jay Anson, the author, also wrote "666" about another(allegedly) haunted house.
@@jackilynpyzocha662I believe I have a copy of it
Damn, James Brolin was really handsome!
Wet?
He was an awesome actor
He was a cutie!!!
I used to know someone who lived opposite the house when all this happened. He said it was real.
Lone Wolf Awesome !
@@seahorse7784 people who've lived in the house had no experience except with people who wanted to see the house
salty anchor so what ? Maybe it stopped ? Doesn’t mean it’s Bs
@@seahorse7784 I'm saying there some suggestive thinking that influenced their experience
nope. the neighbors never saw a thing. don't just read the jay anson book, read a few others. so many people mentioned in jay's book wanted their names removed. read the second edition and a lot of things were changed.
A lot of people say it's fake, but it could be true. I genuinely believe this actually happened. But of course, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Anyways, Rest in peace Defeo family. You shall never be forgotten ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's a lie and it's been proven
People have lived in that house all the way up to now, so ask yourself this - Why, why has nothing strange ever happened in that house since this family??? If there were/are evil spirits in that house, why did they only choose to terrify one particular family for a few weeks and then leave everyone else alone for the next 45 years?
@@matthewwhite8882 Shocking fact:The Shinnecock Indians talked about the house’s area being invested with evil inhuman spirits.
@@ANT96-x8d Ooh, spooky. Then it must be real, right??? Why not address the question that I asked, why would the evil spirits choose to terrorize one family who lived there for a few weeks and then completely leave everyone else who has lived there alone?
@@matthewwhite8882 That’s probably part of the mystery
I got the book for xmas, what was my mother thinking!! the story sacred the shit out of me.
What book ?
the Amityville book of the Lutz's stay in the house. they were only there for 28 days. a few years later, they admitted the story was made up.
They never admitted their own true story was made up. You are confusing something. They told the book and movies had too many things in them which didn´t happen to them. So of course the book and movies were made up, which they admitted. But not the story they told.
I believe there are hauntings but the other owners claim nothing ever happened. I remember the lutz' admitted it was a hoax.
lianne mettam
If you remember they admitted it, I´d like to see the source of your information, because I haven´t read or seen it anywhere yet. Even though I´ve done a lot of research about this case.
It can easily be explained why other owners never had something happening to them. You just have to know more about hauntings in order to answer that question. It´s never guaranteed that everyone being in a haunted place will notice anything haunted. But I´ll explain more if you want to.
My favourite movie and one of my favourite ghost stories.
I find it so funny/ironic that the commercial break they took after this segment was for Koolaid. hehe
What do you think was "ironic" about it?
@@east1128 cult guy having his whole tribe drink fruit punch to suicide in mass death
Hartman is being a very logical here, but when it's about the world's most famous haunted house case it's funny to hear him ask
"Did you have a plumber come in?''
''Did you invite any contractor just to say 'hey, what's wrong with the toilets?'"
I think the Lutz' are whacko. HOWEVER, why would they go through all this trouble only to leave 28 days later? Also, the house is 90 years old, what happened to the families besides the Defeo's before 1974?
Thomas Tyrrell
The Lutz were heavy into the occult
Thanks for the update. I was curious myself. I appreciate it !!!!!!!
From Wikipedia-
"Eventually George and Kathy divorced. George and his youngest step-son Christopher clashed during Chris's teenage years. In 2003, Christopher, whose last name is now Quaratino, told the public that much of The Amityville Horror is fiction. George sued him over it and the two entered legal battles. Chris continues to state that the house was and is haunted but George made up many of the events.
An alarming amount of people claim this to be fake. But exactly how're you suppose to know that? Did you ever step into the house?
I honestly think this paranormal activity could be real. I mean, I have no idea how to conjure spirits or make them pissed off. Its not a subject I explore.
One could also say that their minds were playing tricks because they are aware that a mass murder happened 13 months before they were standing in the same rooms where the crime scenes happened. Honestly, it could be, but I'm not sure that's what happened.
Another thing to look at is maybe the people who don't believe this family are the ones who watched that Amityville movie, which we all know is highly exaggerated.
If you really think about it, if they really did make this story up, then why did they leave ALL of their belongings? That's sacrificing a lot just to make up a ghost story, and I don't think they, or you, would do such a thing. If there was a ghost in MY house, I'd leave my stuff, grab my pets, mother and sisters, and high tail it out of the house before you could say "Ghostbusters".
It isn't phisically proven that there's some sort of dimension full of wandering spirits with unfinished business. But really stop and think about this. What if humans weren't meant to phisically see the dead? Could it cause too much confusion and paranoia for our mortal minds?
It may take years for us to find out the true mysteries of ghosts. Or never. But as these people claim, that this Amityville estate is actually haunted, maybe it would be best that we believe the six's souls are still wandering the property so they'll forever be remembered for their unfair and unpredictable deaths.
I think it's fake but I don't know for sure if it's fake because like you said I never been in that house. But there is no concrete proof that any of this is true and any so called proof that they had for something being paranormal has been debunked
that Lutz guy is scarier looking than anything in the shitty movies his story spawned, his breadknife isn't far behind him.
ikr, its a really nice house on the water, now it was just sold for 1.3 million dollers and if it wasnt famous about 800,000 still, i live 15 minutes away from it and they left all of the personal belongings there, they woulsnt do that if they werent drivin out
Amityville Horror movie scared me to death as a kid. James Brolin was fine!😍
I can tell anyone who doesn't believe in ghosts that they are real. when I was 6 years old me and my father both seen a ghost, just 2 years before my family moved in a 17 year old boy killed his foster brother in the house and also committed 2 other murders off the property. The bedroom I slept in was haunted so one night I went into my parent room scared and when I turned around I saw a black figure in their closet. When I woke my father he seen it to, even 23 years later I have never forgotten
They also could want to talk about it because it made them feel like they were'nt alone.Talking about issues in ones life often helps you deal with it better.
What a creepy combination Good Moring America and Amityville Horror...Always great to wake up to!!!
I don't know that I've ever seen anyone as soft-spoken as Kathleen Lutz.. it's almost like she's whispering.
I was never sure whether or not to believe the Lutz family. However... it is not every day that a family leaves out the front door with only the shirts on their backs and NEVER comes back. That, in itself, says plenty.
I do believe that they experienced unusual occurrences. But the book really was a money-maker. Don't get me wrong, it was a great book. But probably an embellishment of facts that were told by the Lutz family.
Either way, RIP to both George and Kathy, who have died over a decade ago.
The fellow shutting the door on the station wagon in the original movie, looked like the real George Lutz
this video rocks. I saw the original Amityville Horror in the theatre when I was 11 years old - scary stuff, cool.
Love James Brolin, he was so sexy as George Lutz, Lol.
Damn... James Brolin was a sexy man! Wow! 😍 And I'm glad the Lutz's stood firm against the skeptics. Just because you might not have seen or experienced something, doesn't mean it's not real. Unless you've walked in those folks shoes, you have no right to condemn them or claim they're liars. There's tons of evidence to the contrary. Also, movies are always elaborated or exaggerated from the original or true story. Just look at how they changed Harry Potter books to movies. They kept as much of the original yet had to change or discard parts for the movies. That's the ways Hollywood is. We ALL know that. So cut these poor people some slack. I give them kuddos for having the courage to step forward, knowing they would be attacked & questioned & almost vilified at times. It also took great courage to stay in that house as long as they did. They obviously sunk all their money into that house & I understand the notion of not leaving cuz it's your dream home & you worked long hard years to be able to afford it. You don't just up & walk away. They ultimately did & that's why I believe them. I just don't believe every minute of the movies bcs it's just that.... A movie. I'm sure the real life was more frightening for them to cope with cuz it was their day to day reality. Unnerving I'm sure.
Neither Hartman or Brolin believes these two.
😔😔😔
imagine playing the Ouija board in that house.
supposedly, they really were messing around with a Ouija board days and weeks before the shootings .. the two daughters.
I noticed in the '79 movie that the coroner looked like the real George Lutz
Other DIMENSIONS ARE REAL!!
This isn't about other dimensions this is about evil and demonic spirits, evil forces; evil trying to win out as it had already once before in the house.
@Daniel Vargo: *Yes you're right! It is real. I truly believe that as well.*
I believe something bad happened to this family, i mean they fled the house & left all of their possessions & never went back for them! When they had a psychic come she said George didn't even wanna step on the property. I know the movie was greatly exaggerated George Lutz even tried to sue the company (paramount I think). That's to be expected in Hollywood though. Idk that I believe EVERYTHING but I do believe they were haunted. As for the other families it could be George & Kathy were either more open or did dabble in things they shouldn't have. Only they know the truth!
i agree
Bs... They returned a week later and had a garage sale... Kathys son from a previous marriage who was 7 at the time says all their statements are fiction and NOTHING paranormal ever happened in the house

I read the book and watched the two film adaptations (1979 and 2005). Truth or lie, I like the story.
Both Jay Anson, author of "The Amityville Horror" and Ronald J. DeFeo, Jr. both died on March 12, Anson in 1980, DeFeo, in 2021.
I love when he asks James Brolin if he believes their story. You know damn well he doesn't believe them but he does a good job to avoid answering it.
How do you know
@@angela3403 I saw another interview with him and he says he finds their story hard to believe. Margot Kidder doesn't believe it either
I wonder what George Lutz thought of the "bitch slap the wife" scene in the movie?
😔😔😔
Just got back from 108 ocean dr, amityville. Fascinating home. They changed address now. Its no longer 112. You can walk by and take pictures but pictures get white haze to them.
The guy closing the door on the coroner's car looked like the real George Lutz in the movie.
Has anyone else had a problem in that house? That’s one way to know if this is all bullshit.
One of the problems I have is that there are some very real questions that need answering about the Defeo murders, such as how those shots could be fired by one person yet none of the victims showed any signs of reacting, they were all found face down just as they were when they were sleeping.
Theres been a few families move into the Amityville house and they ALL have said theres been NO paranormal activity WHAT SO EVER! the Lutz did this bs for the $$
Yeah, the Defoes did.
In the book, the Lutzes claim that on Jan.1st, 1976, Jody' tracks could be seen in the snow. When researched, there was no snow in Amityville on that day. Also, they also claim to have called the cops when the front door was torn off its hinges. According to police reports, the police never visited 112 ocean avenue when the Lutzes lived there.
Don't be such a hardcore rationalist! Everything can't be explained by a slide rule!
That was the novel, which George said was inaccurate.
@@novelist99 there are also discrepancies In the hardcover and paper back
The thing is, at least if even george was lying, he didn't go along with the movie, which proves more he is not lying.
+christopher dunn That's an interesting point. I was ready to call him a liar but I hadn't thought of that.
+Jack Torrance Well lets put it this way i havent had to deal with something like this before running for your lives sort of deal. But i have seen ghost's, felt them,seen things move on there own, and its real whether anyone wants to believe it or not i don't care. I know what is real and what is fake.But the fake can happen way more than the real that's for sure.
christopher dunn I'm not gonna claim I know what can exist and what can't. I've never experienced it, but I'm not going to call anyone a liar. Spooky stuff.
+Jack Torrance Oh ya for sure i wouldnt expect anything less. If you don't experience it why would anyone believe in such a thing. The thing i can't believe is some of these ghost shows and how there attacked and showing demons and stuff i find hard to believe.There are angry spirts, but there is no devil or demons. Load of crap religion made that shit up as a scare tactic.
Well, it is true that they can attack you. For example, they can scratch you. You can call those entities whatever you want. They just used the word "demons". But I have no idea where those entities come from and what their actual motives are. Yeah, spreading negative energy and drawing the positive energy from their surroundings and people. But I don´t know why.
I believe them why would a family move into a house and 28 days leave
@Therin Chilnsford Because there was ever any guarantee that was going to happen??? Please! Talk about far fetched that THAT would ever be someone's scheme to get out of paying their mortgage.
Lone Wolf I think based on what’s written in the book would be why they stayed the full 28 days. Did you actually read it? Guess not.
well, they knew about the murders when they moved in. they told these scary stories to willliam weber, who just happened to be the attorney of ronnie defeo. which then means weber could plead insanity for ronnie murdering his family. demons made him do it. lots of money for everyone involved. but there were a lot of people mentioned in the book who wanted their names removed. thus the second edition is much different.
Lone Wolf well, there again would be if you read the book, which I did several times growing up. I loved how the book had maps, full layout of the house, Missy’s drawing of Jody . . . Etc. There was a lot of obsessive, insane behavior that they were exhibiting, almost as if they were experiencing dementia. George Lutz going out to the boathouse obsessively and staying cold in front of the fire and constantly keeping it roaring. It was a good read regardless of truth. The biggest asset to the whole thing is the house itself. You can’t just pick a more perfect demonic haunted house than that place.
@@TheIndependentLens yeah, a good horror story. made some people a few bucks. the lutz family worked with ronnie defeo's attorney, william weber, to make a story saying the house was possessed by demons. and of course, the demons made ronnie do what he did. and later the lutz family was so scared they moved out. did you read the first or second publishing of the book? the second one was a lot different, because all the people 'involved' wanted their names removed from the book.
The Movie, Just Like The Book, Speaks For Itself. A Room Not Noted On Any Blueprints, Was Discovered. An Unknown Force Rips The Door Off Its Hinges, From The Inside. UNEXPLAINABLE.
Does anyone else see a resemblance between Kathy Lutz and Louise DiFeo?
And the resemblance between George Lutz and Ronald DeFeo Jr.
Zoroaster but That’s probably not a paranormal thing. If they live in a house and know that people were murdered there, You are prone to nightmares about it
Yes I did.. m amazed
They were in debt up to their eyeballs, that's why they left. You're right about the crazy part though... Check out my other comment right below this one.
Notice at 7:23 George and Kathy Lutz completely ignore the question that the new owners say there is nothing paranormal about the home!
The "heating bills" would be astronomical; that's scary enough!
Was James brolin asleep on the couch next to them?
I believe he might have been, seems like he wanted nothing to do those people, he was just promoting a movie he did
I believe them!
I believe them 100%
The thing with polygraphs is that can easily be beaten, even if you never learned how. If you tell a story about something that happened you enough times, you'll start to believe it and the polygraph will register you're telling the truth, even if the real truth is something different. Especially when your story is out there on the world stage; you're completely committed to the story at that point.
Polygraphs are worthless. They are inadmissible in courts.
His stepson recently said that george Lutz delved in the occult
@trha2222
In court🤣funny guy
hard to say. the kids didn't like george very much.
I believe them. At the same time i find it very strange how every resident who ever resided at the house after the DeFeo’s and the Lutzes, all refuse to believe that the house was ever haunted.
Surely somebody else would encounter some sort of paranormal activity if that was the case.
I think because George and Kathy we're into transitional meditation and I've also heard one of the sons say George was also into / interested in the occult so that may have made them more vulnerable to it.
@@aprilcitygirltocountrywife2595or they lied about it
Those other residents aren't telling the truth.

Ronnie DeFeo did not make up stories about the house being possessed except for one interview he did with Hans Holzer (and that was AFTER the Lutzes went public with their story). Ronnie later recanted explaining he just told Holzer what he wanted to hear (as Ronnie had a financial interest in Holzer's book project).
So Ronnie tried to capitalize on the Lutzes' story, not the other way around (and it only happened during that one interview with Holzer).
Wow, I knew that Kathy Lutz had dies a while ago, but I didn't know that George died. When did he die? Their kids must be horrified. Since they died so young, do you guys think it had something to do with the house in Amityville? Like maybe a curse got them? Or do you guys think it is just coincidence?
I've just been watching the "For God's Sake Get Out!" doc on my Amityville DVD and James Brolin contradicts what he says there. He said that he thought George was a good salesman and that he felt he schooled the children to lie about it. How two faced can someone be!
What do others think of Brolin's later contradiction?
Oh and I'm a firm believer in what the Lutz family said. I've faced a lot of sceptics and not has said provided anything concrete about why they think it was fabricated.
I thought he came off as a phone and a jerk after that. The sons didn't get along with George as teenagers and after George and Kathy divorced they still backed up the story although they said they thought it might have had something to do with George's interest and dabbling in the occult.
It is very simple, you are sat next to the guy (George) on live TV. Of course you are not going to say how you really feel.
I read the book aged 11/12. Very creepy.But now I am 36 I might just crack up laughing.
Jamie W don’t laugh I’m going through some crazy stuff it’s
ReAl n so true the family tries to hide it. I say run
Thank you🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Totally couldn’t afford the mortgage and they got creative,but nobody else who’s owned it has experienced a thing .
This aired 2 days b4 my parents got married!
+Cathy Lemke I remember that day like yesterday. I waited to see them, and they were on way at the end of the show.
+MrRJMGREEN isn't tht irritating?! It's always the ones you're eagerly waiting for that are on at the very end! Lol that drives me nuts lol
Cathy Lemke Yes, I had to sit through all that crap to get to the good stuff. :)
+MrRJMGREEN lol
spoooooooooooooooky😱
I want him to at least stay in that house for 5 weeks. I can already see him trying to leave.
I thought reporters were supposed to be impartial and open-minded, but Hartman seems like he already made up his mind, not to mention he was rude. Joan Lunden should've interviewed them.
The first conjuring movie was based on the Perron family haunting. Conjuring 2 happen in England . Smurl case was in the 1980s. The Enity was one of the craziest cases not a hoax that happen to a single mother who her sons saw a entity attack her and even manifested itself more then one time . Looked very similar to the Smurl case entity that haunted Janet Smurl.
I’ve seen the entity that haunts that house .
No one can experience what another person has even if we do or don't believe them. The Lutz family certainly put their integrity out into the world and faced mass unpopularity as a result - In those days that would have been horrific with the media exposure invasions, so can't see what they would have gotten out of it? - Yes, money talks, but in those days it would have come in drips of coins and not an instant win due to archaic banking systems.
I find it interesting that the set they use for GMA here is not sterile looking and the sound is so good. I liked the show as a kid then, but you cannot pay me to watch the show now!!! It's horrible! The fakeness of the humans and the set is so gross.
If u people think it's fake move into the house and u will see
When did you live there?
The family (Cromarties) after the Lutzs had a son die of a drug overdose while in the house. A family later living in the house had their son die in the World Trade Center on 9-11. Whether these guys were living in the house at the time of their deaths, I don't know.
thank you for posting this vid!
I lived in a 100 year old San Fernando house. My bedroom was in the attic and a disembodied hand tried to pull me thru the wall. I was 5 and my siblings are witness to that and me falling down the stairs- hitting only 2 stairs out of 45 and landing on the bottom as if someone carried me. My mom told me that I used to speak to a little girl around the house that only I saw. She thought that it was my imaginary friend-but then she was doing dishes in the kitchen and saw the girl...ghost girl.
Pathetic attempt for attention
The priest was invited over to bless the house on moving day. It was just a sort of tradition. Nothing to do with demons or a haunting. They didn't realize the house was haunted at the time.
No they didn't, but before they purchased the property the real estate agent informed them of the murders. I would want my house blessed too, just some spiritual cleaning before I rest my arse on the sofa.
Yes, someone lives in the house now....it is for sale for almost 1 million. Due to divorce...hmmm
Yeah man, with divorce rates at around 50%, that's gotta be the reason.
Dumbass.
This interview was just terrible! Mr. Hartman made the Lutzes look like liars. ~He didn't ask them about the pig in the window, or the house blessing by their parish priest or when George was possessed or when the front door blew off its hinges, or the photo taken upstairs of the little boy ghost. ~ How disappointing!
for those people who doubts them, why don't you live in that amityville house and see for yourself if they are telling a lie..
People have and they reported nothing untoward.
The book is the real deal. The movie was hollywood. It was nothing like the book. I hate the movie, but loved the book!
They moved into a beautiful house, that had a pool, a boathouse, in a beautiful area, at not down price, ''there was no ''reason'' to want to move out after 28 days other than something frighting them to death, the defeo man a year earlier said he suffered strange things before he shot his entire family at 0315 hours - ''sounds like ''something affected him'' and then the Lutz man who repeatedly would wake at 0315 hours too - what IF they hadnt' moved out when they did? would the lutz man have been the next defo?? that house had something ''bad in it'' ................100 % per cent beleive them) what a horrible thing to experience.....
@Pop-Actor (Rick) 😮😮😮
George and Kathy also practiced TM which is a deep form of meditation. That shit can open doors in a highly charged environment
trha2222 transcendental meditation
The interviewer is so disrespectful. Clearly doesn’t trust them . Why is he interviewing them
