S2E8: The Amityville Hauntings | The Most Infamous Ghost Story

Join Christian and Kate as they continue the Amityville story, shifting from the 1974 murders to the 28 days that turned 112 Ocean Avenue into a global phenomenon. After George and Kathleen Lutz moved into the Long Island home in December 1975, they claimed to experience escalating disturbances, from the infamous 3:15 a.m. wake-ups and icy cold rooms to the red-eyed figure known as “Jodie.”

In this episode, we break down the Lutz family’s timeline of events, the blessing of the house, their sudden flight after less than a month, and the investigation led by Ed and Lorraine Warren. We also examine the famous photograph, the séance inside the home, and the skepticism that followed. Was Amityville truly haunted, or did fear, media, and opportunity collide to create one of the most debated paranormal cases in history?
