Would you live in a haunted house

[chic]

Would you live in a haunted house or any house where you've learned someone was murdered? Realtors have to tell you this.

Me = No. I'm sensitive to ghosts or the spirits of those who have died so I wouldn't live in places like this. There would be too much activity for me and I don't think I would ever be able to relax.

Since I don't believe in haunted houses, I could live in one known to be spooked.

 

[Devi]

Nope.

Since I don't believe in haunted houses, I could live in one known to be spooked.

But could you live in a house where a murder was committed? See this is an important part of the question because many don't believe in haunted houses. You're not alone in that.

 

[ohioboy]

Depends on the house, lizzie borden's is out, such as that. Oh I could, but since I don't have to, I pass.

If it was haunted by Helen Mirren, I'd risk it.

 

[terry123]

No.

 

[Pepper]

Maybe. Maybe not. Not if there's still blood on the floor.

 

[ohioboy]

Maybe. Maybe not. Not if there's still blood on the floor.

Dried blood or fresh blood?

 

[Chet]

Maybe. If it drove down the selling price it might be worth it. It depends on what room the murder was committed in too. Any house like mine had previous residents unless it's new. I sometimes wonder what their life was like when they were here.

 

[Pepper]

Dried blood or fresh blood?

Either one will fit the description!

 

[Jeweltea]

No, I wouldn't. I don't really believe in haunted houses but we rented an old Victorian once. I was reading a Stephen King book alone there one night. I believed in haunted houses that night. I could never live in a house if I knew someone was murdered there.

Me neither.

Lizzie Borden's old home is a bed and breakfast now and people can and do sleep over there. I still pass on that even though it is close by.

particularly as she's not Dead....

Someone died in this house before we moved in.. but they'd only been here a couple of years before the old guy died, and his disabled wife was taken off to live somewhere else.. so I doubt he'd want to come and haunt it..

..in answer to your question Chic..I wouldn't choose to live in a haunted house...

 

[JonDouglas]

Probably, depending on the house and neighborhood.

 

[win231]

I already do.

 

[Pinky]

We used to.

 

[Jules]

We used to.

Did they bother you?

 

[Pinky]

Did they bother you?

Our dog sensed him, and he frightened my 2 young nephews by appearing to them.
I always sensed a presence, but it didn't bother me.

When my parents‘ house was being built, a worker died there. They were informed of this before buying. It wasn’t haunted.

It has become normal for someone to return to their home to die peacefully. Will it be haunted? Will it be a negative in purchasing. I know people who won’t buy there.

If it was a gang murder, I‘d have to be confident that they knew that nobody they were after was still there.

Unless it’s a gruesome scene, I’d consider it for the right location and price. I don’t believe in a place being haunted. Guess I could always be convinced otherwise.

 

[Aunt Marg]

No way, not a chance, absolutely not, out of the question, forget it, totally off the table.

 

[fuzzybuddy]

If you are talking about a house that's "haunted" with supposed ghosts-it wouldn't bother me. But if the place was the scene of mass killings and murders, I don't think so. I think it would be hard to sing "Happy Birthdays, or carry on pleasant things" in a place with that kind of history. Never mind the resale value.

My parents home was what you would call active. Mom would call the priest often to bless the house. Where I live now is clean. The one at my parent's place scared me a couple times, once by shaking the bed, and when I wouldn't respond it grabbed and shook the covers. I didn't like it at all because it gave off a malevolent vibe.
