I've been a fan of the book since it scared the crap out of me as a kid in the late 70s, and just a few years ago I even had the pleasure of going inside the actual house during a tag sale.
Although a rug from the house's "sewing room" now adorns my living room, I've yet to have anything out of the ordinary happen from it. I do get a kick out of calling it the Amityville Horror Rug.
Daniel Lutz, on the other hand probably wouldn't step two feet into my living room. As the oldest kid of the first family to move into 112 Ocean Avenue after the brutal murders, he has a lifetime of personal haunts, seemingly paranormal and deeply psychological.
In the new documentary My Amityville Horror, director Eric Walter attempts to exorcise some of Daniel's demons.
