The original movie "Great House" event!

The original movie "Great House" event!

 

On December 18, 1975 in Long Island, New York, near Christmas, George and Casey Luz were in a cafe discussing a house they had seen that day. In order to get better educational resources for the 4 kids, they plan to buy a school district house. This house covers an area of about 370 square meters, with beautiful scenery, complete matching, and is located in a good-quality residential area with good security, but the price is only $80,000, nearly a quarter lower than the average price of similar types of housing. The couple immediately decided to buy it. But they didn't expect this seemingly cheap house would let them flee in just over 20 days.

 

The day after moving into the new home, Casey invited a familiar Father Ralph for a blessing ceremony. The priest had just reached the second floor when he suddenly heard a man's voice shouting viciously in his ear: "Get out! The scared priest left immediately, didn't dare tell the Lutz couple, only to call a few days later to secretly advise George not to use the 2nd floor room as a bedroom. That phone call was only half said and inexplicably cut off. Later, Father Ralph had a fever for no reason and scars of unknown origin appeared on his hands.

 

For the first few days, the family lived in peace, but not long after, strange things happened one after another. On the afternoon of Dec. 26, George was repairing the car in the garage and the hood bounced off itself, breaking the windshield. Before he could react, the right door suddenly opened on its own, the wiper started to rotate irregularly, and the engine was smog. In the middle of winter, there is always a lot of itching in their bedroom for no reason. What broke him even more was that he began to suffer from severe insomnia and woke up on time at 3:15am every day.

 

In the early hours of December 28, George woke up again at 3:15 to hear the sound of heels moving outside the door. He got up and opened the door to check, and there was no one outside. Just as he was about to close the door, he suddenly noticed that the heavy cross on the wall had quietly turned upside down - he had so much effort to fix it, he couldn't flip it on his own. Early the next morning, George took a closer look at the whole house and eventually found a secret room in the basement that had been stained blood red. Almost at the same time, Casey told him in a panic that the youngest child in the family started talking to the air frequently and giving names to people who didn’t exist. George just remembered the priest's advice. On the 28th day of moving into a new home, the family of six packed up their necessities, ran away and never returned.

 

This incident caused a huge stir. As many people investigate the house's past, a murder case that happened a year ago has surfaced. In the early morning hours of November 13, 1974, a bar called Henry was about to close when a young man rushed in and shouted, "Someone shot my parents in my house, help me!" Those present recognized him as Ronald Defoe, the eldest son of the couple who lived nearby. A couple of daring drinkers accompanied him home - the same house the Lutz family later bought at 112 Ocean Avenue. The door was hidden, and the sight inside the house made the people panic instantly. Police rushed to confirm that the Defoe parents, two younger brothers and two younger sisters, all lost signs of life in their bedrooms. 6 people face down in bed, shot from the back, no trace of a struggle. The parents were shot twice, the other four were shot dead, the killer was very quick. The whole family was killed, only Ronald survived.

 

During the interview that night, Ronald admitted directly that he killed the family of six. According to the confession, at 3:15am on Nov. 13, the 24-year-old walked into the room of his parents and siblings with a .35 rifle. But this confession is filled with inexplicable doubts: first, the modus operandi is similar to that of a professional killer; second, the rifle has no silencer, the early morning shooting must have made a loud noise, he fired 8 shots, and the six dead did not have any rise or escape during the whole process. Forensics confirmed that the dead were killed in deep sleep and that there was no anesthesia in the body; third, the neighbors said they heard no gunshots that night, only the Defoe dog barking in the middle of the night; fourth, Ronald claimed to wake up in the middle of the night and heard an unknown voice pointing him to hurt his family and his body was out of control. Police and court at the time thought he was making up lies to try to get off the crime. The final court convicted Ronald of six counts of second-degree murder. On November 21, 1975 he officially served his sentence. The house that had been killed was unattended, and was eventually listed at a low price of $80,000 and was bought by the Lutz couple who wanted to leak.

 

The Lutz family's experience has been exposed and many believe they made up the story to gain attention and profit. Later, the Lutz couple and the authors co-produced a novel based on the event, which became a national bestseller, selling over 3 million copies. The 1979 film adaptation was released and the first round took $80 million. The incident also caught the attention of the Warrens, who were studying the special anomaly, who took reporters and filming teams into the house to shoot on the ground. During filming, a camera captured a mysterious boy with a look very similar to Ronald's 9-year-old brother John who was killed. The Warrens insist that no children were present at the scene.

 

Is there really an inexplicable anomaly in this house? The Cromottis bought the house in 1977 and changed the house number from 112 to 108 to avoid disturbing it. The couple lived here for 10 years and later said in an interview that nothing strange ever happened in the house except for the many people who watched novels and movies who came to disturb them. In 1987, the Cromotti and his wife sold the house to the O'Nealers, who also lived for 10 years without encountering any abnormalities. Mr. Wilson bought the house in 1997 and several owners have made different changes to the house, and the house is very different today.

 

There are also scientific explanations about the strange rumors. Researchers analyzed thousands of records of so-called home anomaly events in the New York area and found that almost all of them were concentrated in the winter months of November through March. Winter in New York is very cold, many old houses can only rely on traditional fireplaces to burn wood for heating, and if the ventilation is poor and the wood is not completely burned, carbon monoxide is produced. Carbon monoxide poisoning can cause hearing hallucinations, hallucinations, or strong fear in the body, and even cause blurry consciousness and uncontrollable limbs. Many people can't clearly recall the experience of poisoning after waking up. Some researchers believe that a variety of abnormal events in the house that year, including DeFoe's claims of "uncontrolled", may be related to excessive indoor carbon monoxide levels.

Many times, the so-called anomaly often stems from unknown scientific factors and the imagination and fear of the human heart.

A house is a residence after all, and most of the "hands" are made by the people themselves.
