My parents, like many heard about the Lutz family leaving their house and went to the property to possibly witness or see any strange occurrences. This was December 1975. They saw nothing. The family left the home completely furnished, as though they went out to the movies or something. The story made the headlines that the home was haunted. George Lutz spoke to a writer named Jay Anson. Anson recorded about 45 hours worth of material from George & Kathy Lutz. This was used for the basis of the book and eventually a movie.

Something about haunted houses always gives me pause. Mainly because it’s supposed to be
be the one place you should feel protected from the outside world. Something about the Amityville movies always made me think of my grandmother.
I’m not sure how it all started but my grandmother has this thing about blessing her families vehicles and houses. Not a priest but just her and her Spanish prayers. She has long passes away but my mom kept the tradition going and always gives me a blessed rosary to hang on my cars rear view mirror. When I was younger I would roll my eyes but now that I’m older not so much. I don’t mean to ramble on but this took me back! Total classic!-

Cool story Adelphina. Thanks for sharing about your grandmother.
I think the Amityville movies create a sense of uneasiness because theirs something sinister about the look of the house. If you go pass the house today, there aren’t any characteristics that will take you back to those haunting images during the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s.

Never seen the remake. Watch the original when you have time. It’s a creepy, eerie film with some great visuals. Thanks for the feedback Adelphina.

I spotted the songs hidden within. Yeah, I’ve been lucky being I never participated in alcohol or drugs. They were everywhere but I declined and I’m glad for it.
You’re a courageous guy for being able to go through that and come out sane. (and a great writer). I’ve known people who couldn’t do it and spiraled into oblivion. Good on you, Damian.

Oh, I spiraled into oblivion brother. But somehow managed to crawl out of the abyss. I was lucky, not everyone finds the way out. Appreciate you.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It is a reward to get second chance, but it was important for me to understand why and how I became so addicted in the first place. I understand me better now, I’ve even slowly started to like myself a little. lol. That’s my true transformation my friend. Appreciate you.

My best friend from middle school has been sober for over 17 years. I’m so proud of her.
It took her pound of flesh though. Completely different person when drunk. Mean, violent, and in all honesty sometimes sad.
No one wakes up in the morning and says I want to be an alcoholic. The struggle was real and I am so thankful she got sober.
Hang in there and tell the voices to shut the hell up. You got this. One day at a time.-

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adel. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Indeed, no one wakes up wanting to be an alcoholic. Sometimes the pound of flesh doesn’t come all at once anyhow, the older I get the effects show up more mentally and physically. As I’ve said many times, “No one comes out of addiction unscathed.” I was a different person as well, it brought out my bad qualities. Glad your friend got clean, one day at a time. Appreciate you.

I’ve always felt that if you’re still going…even limping…you’re not broken. You’re fractured. Those fractures heal with aches same as breaks, we both know that. You are fierce in your approach to truth, my friend

When it comes to the heart matters it is always difficult, very difficult to separate the feelings from the mind and make sense of everything… Unfortunately, sometimes we learn in the hard and painful way, and sometimes we need years to completely get over it and grow, the pain is real here, well written my friend.

hello lovely Fia he told me last night after I posted my poem he said he knows I am capable of this mischief but he prefers my softer side…I asked him further about his varied sides and he says it’s all in what side I provoke will I get from him thank you for reading and commenting ❤️

Crimsin, both tender and fiery this poem is. He tries to elicit your soft side but his true nature brings out the lioness. Great poem as I have come to expect from you.

I do not remember when I found out Amityville was in Long Island New York. But the first thing I thought of was the house created on top of a burial ground. That movie I’ve had seen twice
