The Amityville Horror: The Warrens Part 1

In Part 1 of our mini-series about famed demonologist couple Ed and Lorraine Warren, we talk about the Amityville Horror, perhaps the most notorious ghost story in American history. We’ll cover the dark history of the haunted house, the grisly DeFeo murders, and, of course, the many movies the story of the haunting inspired. But what really happened at the house in Amityville, New York? And what happens when a studio capitalizes on a real haunting? And how does My Little Pony tie into all this?
