Tell them to “get over it.”

“What a revolting development this is!”

Oopsie.

“There was no way we could ever stay here”

Give me a break.

[WV Mountain Mama]

Suck it up people.

[ca centered]

In Mexifornia those things have to be disclosed. Here they could sue the sellers pants off.

[Sans-Culotte]

I don’t think it’d bother me all that much, as long as the place was cleaned up and repainted. I don’t believe in ghosts. I would be more alarmed if the house were in a high crime area.

Superstition can get to the best of people sometimes.

[ca centered]

I don’t blame them for being upset.

My neighbor killed his children and wife and himself 10 years ago on our peaceful street in Yonkers. The house sold for a bargain because of this.

Didn’t you see Amityville Horror? GET OUT!!! :-)

"We couldn't live with someone dying in the house," she said in a telephone interview with FOXNews.com.

Oh, for heaven's sake.

Any house of any age has had somebody die in it - and be born in it. And more than you'd think have had somebody killed in them.

But what about the houses where people going through an ugly divorce fought all the time? Or depression? Or suicide? Kipling even wrote a short story about this, based on a real life experience he and his wife had with buying a haunted house, but haunted by the wraiths of the living, not the dead: The House Surgeon

This is a particularly grisly incident and recent, which makes it a bit more unnerving.

But if they're freaking about it, they should have the priest come and do the full exorcism/house blessing thing.

YOU ONLY MOVED THE HEADSTONES! YOU LEFT THE BODIES BUT YOU ONLY MOVED THE HEADSTONES!

I was about 10 years old when my Great Grandfather died. It was a small town and we packed into the house for the funeral. My little brother and me had to sleep in the bed that he died in. My Mom said something similar to “get over it’.

"There was no way we could ever stay here," Christina Johnson told the Sentinel as she stood in the master bedroom, where three of the four victims perished. "It would be like living in a morgue." Her mother, Kathy Johnson, said the family thought about staying in the home, but after finding out what had happened, they were scared to death and felt fearful whenever they were inside.

How is this family's mental instability the fault of the realtor?

Poltergeist 4?

[truthkeeper]

How ridiculous.

You read my mind. In old houses the front parlor was often used for the wake, with the body laid out for 2 days.

We sure have gotten soft.
