On this episode of Harlots of Spooktalk, we step inside one of the most infamous homes in American history — the Amityville house once occupied by George Lutz and Kathy Lutz.

In 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered six members of his family inside 112 Ocean Avenue. Just over a year later, the Lutz family moved in — only to flee 28 days later claiming terrifying paranormal activity.

LD Pteloma breaks down the timeline of events — from the DeFeo murders to the Lutz family’s purchase of the house. Tiffany dives into the chilling claims that made headlines worldwide: unexplained cold spots, mysterious slime, swarms of flies, and a sinister presence known as “Jodie.” Karli explores the controversy that followed — allegations of hoax, psychological stress, media manipulation, and the cultural explosion sparked by The Amityville Horror and later the film adaptation, The Amityville Horror.

Was it a true haunting… or one of the most successful horror stories ever told?

Join us as we revisit the fear, the fame, and the legacy of the Amityville Horror.
