Amityville only wants locals to get it. Thank god most fans are too poor to buy it.
Most of America is too poor/too middle class to buy that house. Actually, home ownership is at record lows (over past 5 decades) due to higher housing costs and stagnant wages.
Well, we don't know who bought it yet. Maybe it was a fan (or secret fan). I'd like to think the buyer has more of passing interest in the house's history and lore. Though reports of the sale have made it to many news outlets, buyer's identity has (oddly) not been referenced anywhere. Guess news organizations don't care enough to dig any deeper than "it was sold."
The house was sold to a family with kids. The media is going to protect the family.
