The Amityville Horror has been a classic cult novel since its first publication in 1977. Its main attraction are eerie atmosphere and a great plot - and the fact that it is based on a true story.
Jay Anson has interviewed George and Kathy Lutz (they have not had much contact in person but Anson worked after video tapes), the couple who, along with their three children, has spent a few weeks in 112 Ocean Avenue, their home - and they were forced to leave it because of strange and frightening poltergeist phenomena. The house had an unfortunate reputation anyway. Ronnie DeFeo has murdered his whole family in there. Soon after the carnage, the Lutz family moved in. They saw flies everywhere, notwithstanding it was winter, and this was just the beginning...
