Amityville, NY - We Celebrate the Amity of Craig & Dr. Jess
from Small Town News · host Small Town News
Happy Halloween (almost), and welcome to the village of Amityville, New York, home of the infamous Amityville horror. The area was originally settled in 1653. The village of Amityville, which is part of the town of Babylon, was formally incorporated in 1894. The town is most well known as the setting of the book and movie, The Amityville Horror. The house at the center of the story was the scene of a real life murder case in the mid-70s where Ronald DeFeo, Jr. murdered all six members of his family. The movie and book detail the paranormal phenomenon experienced by the Lutz family who moved into the house after the murders. The town is also the birthplace of Alec Baldwin and De La Soul (you'll love our pronunciation of their names). There are also an inordinate number of sportsball players who were born in Amityville. We hope you enjoy our spooky little jaunt through the town of Amityville!Small Town News--whose headline is it, anyway? @SmallTownNewsImprov
