As a Long Islander, NY myself, my dad used to be obsess with the Amityville Horror story.
Heck, I would be too!!!
I was in high school when the book came out. Read the book, and watched the movie. I don't think it was till a considerable time later that I heard about the family annihilation.
I'm from the Midwest, and I've always been obsessed with the Amityville house of horror.
I’m from Buffalo NY but have close family in LI so I have seen the house almost 12 times I think
Shoutout to the cemetery employee who probably really wanted to go home but let you in anyways. 🙌🏻
I really like the original Amityville Horror movie with James Brolin and Margot Kidder.
Me too. Scary!
I never saw that one I do like 2005 one
You should watch the first one with James Brolin and Margot Kidder. Way better.
I agree with you, Eric.
I believe he did it alone.
This was a horrific crime
Very scary. 😮💔😭
Unfortunately this was very poertic
Who would've helped kill someone's family
There are two primary problems with this position. The first one is the condition of Dawn's body in relation to her parents and her siblings. By the time the Medical Examiner did the autopsies everybody but Dawn was completely through rigor. Dawn was not. This means Dawn died considerably later. This was confirmed by the Medical examiner that while he admitted he did not do her autopsy, he did confirm the condition of her body. This leads to the last problem Ronald Sr DID NOT die in bed. You can tell by the position of his body he had been placed in bed. There were no signs of him being slid across the floor. I might also add that there is some doubt the bullets found in the mother's body were fired from the same firearm. The weights don't match. There might be a reasonable explanation for this, and again there might not be. I am of the opinion there were 3 people in that house alive and walking around. This crime most likely will never be solved fully. Please don't get me started on George and Kathy Lutz. In the end, I feel sorry for the current owners of that house.
There is one more point I feel is critical to articulate. I am NOT a conspiracy nutcase. I am 100% convinced Butch DeFeo lived and died where he belonged. I am 100% positive he took his Father's life as well as his sister Dawn's. I am not sure who did the other 4. About 15 years later I was in a home where a rifle was accidentally fired, the sound was loud and I felt also a bit concussive. There were two children fast asleep in the back of the house that instantly started crying and were out of bed. I remember thinking about this case that night. I may be a total idiot, but after a rifle fire's 4 times, I don't see anybody staying in bed after that. Nobody was drugged. I just can't see this happening the way the local police said it did. I do NOT believe Butch acted alone!
@@THE-michaelmyers You bring up some very good points.
Thank you!
Harmin, We love you so much. Never forget that.💙💙
Aww thanks so much katherine😊 You all mean the world to me🙌👍
Thanks for explaining why they were all found in their beds. I always wondered how no one heard the gunshots and got up to investigate. I hadn't heard he drugged them all. Interesting! That makes sense.
He said he drugged them but Ronnie was a compulsive liar, never could believe a word he said, he always changed his story. Unless it says in the autopsy, then I wouldn't believe it but would make a lot of sense.
In the autopsy reports there were no drugs/sedatives found in any of the murdered family members.
I don't know where that lie came from but, the autopsy results has always stated nothing in the family's systems were present to prevent anyone from waking up while Ronald DeFeo shot them in their beds
@@badkitty4922 Wow! Very interesting. I guess I didn't know as much about this story as I thought. Lol.
@@Erin_Coke aww, it's all good.
There's actually quite a lot of proof that there's a dark entity inhabiting that house. Even Ed and Lorraine Warren did an extensive investigation; Ed being a Church recognized Demonologist, and Lorraine a psychic/clairvoyant, with hundreds of cases in their files.
There's actually a pretty famous photo taken by Lorraine as she was walking around the house with a camera. It's of the youngest child sort of peeking out of the doorway of a bedroom, and can be seen from the upper part of the stairs leading to the second floor.
They weren’t drugged. The toxicology reports came back negative for all of them.
Rest In Peace to the Defeo Family thanks Harmon ❤
On one of my trips to NY I had my bro in law drive me to this house so I could see it in person. It was interesting to be in front of the place where this tragedy happend. Another great video Harmin.
Thanks Harmin I have heard so many versions of this story it's nice to know the real story.
RIP to the family members. Horrible crime.
☠️ I have followed this case since the 70s and this is the first I remember hearing about him calling on the life insurance..
I've never in my life heard anything about that either you are right I mean he got arrested almost immediately. So how could he of called on life insurance 🤔 dose not make sence
@@traceydanielle8463 I rewound and listen twice and it says he asked the policeman arresting him how to collect life insurance?!?
That is why I think he was not insane and also the other lies too.
The house looks similar but they changed the distinctive windows to make it look less 'sinister'
They looked like eyes
I was young but remember this happening
Glad you mentioned no sound suppressor. One wonders these days w false confessions.
Absolutely! They must have been drugged then right?? How else would none of them try to hide or escape?
@@InfamousCrimeLocations agree!
@@InfamousCrimeLocations with no muffling accessory, it's surprising that the neighbors didn't report shots fired [i've heard gun and/or rifle discharges a block or more away]
P.S. wasn't aware he died last year- thanks
I've always been so fascinated by the Amityville house, family etc.. Thank you for bringing us along 🙏
Great coverage. 🙂👍
Yay Harmin! It’s great to see your face again. I hope you are doing well. I have been on a little “online break” and missed your channel the most! Keep up the amazing content, this was a great one. Safe travels and looking forward to the next one🧳👍
🧡☠️🧡👻🧡🎃
As usual, great job! I see they changed out those iconic startups circle windows at the top!
This story will get old. Weird how no one wake up. Some say his sister was involved. Dad was a weirdo too. Enjoyed!
Harmin As Always Great Reporting Great Video 👍 I Was 7 When This Horrible Event Happened Still Haunting After Almost 50 Year's
Wow Harmon you are a rolling stone and I love seeing your travels. This is one of the most interesting cases.
Hi 😊 Harmin I totally agree with you Harmin He did it alone pure evil!!! So horrific 😭😭😭
Harmin, have you done the List family yet? I think that ii is another good one to do. Keep up the great work. Joan
That's another famous family anhialation story that in many ways is more gruesome and horrific than the Amityville case.
Great suggestion!👍👍👍
I'm surprised that no one has made a complete tour video regarding this crime. We have seen the house and resting place, but it would be interesting to see where he dumped the weapon, hid evidence like his clothing, spent cartridges etc, Brigante Buick etc. Glad you understand the facts of the case and aren't falling for the tales of a compulsive liar.
Thank you Harmon! I actually got goosebumps as you walked towards the Amityville horror house. I didn't realize that the house was still standing. So creepy, even in daylight. I wonder if it's haunted. Great job Harmon, keep up the great work! Stay safe and see you next time.
Who really knows IF there is or isn't Paranormal activity but if people actually live there they certainly have more cajones than I..
Yes thank you Harmin.
The question remains , how did no one hear the shots? RIP DeFeo family. Take care Harmon
It was an open secret that the DeFeo’s had ties to the mob. I wouldn’t have heard anything either
Yes take care Harmin.
He confessed to that, he drugged his family.
That was weird that they didn't try to escape
@@Surv1ve_Thrive NO! The Medical Examiners run toxicology, and there were no drugs found in any of those 6 bodies.
100% he killed his own family. And, he did it alone. Thanks for taking us here Harmin. I cannot imagine what the rest of their family went through. RIP to the Defeo family.
I have seen a few posts of this. This is by far the best. Thanks so much
I've always been interested in the DeFeo/Amityville haunting for some reason.
Great video, Harmin!!!
👻
One of my best girlfriends grew up right down the road from the house she was in a convent when it happened but she said she would see some of the neighborhood in church and they were creepy people according to the neighbors they really didn't like the dad or older brother but they were empathetic for the kids but they weren't allowed to stay overnight and neither was the neighborhood kids they likened the house as a war battle ground
@@lisajoyce6803 Yikes💥⚡
@@Firecracker66 yes I know she died in 2007 October 15 but I still get shivers remembering the story about them
@@lisajoyce6803 Living that close to ACTUAL Evil!... I cannot even imagine
Wow! Hey, Harmin. Thanks for doing this video. I really enjoyed this. 😊
the subject hit my horror chakra in the 1970s when it about 12y0 I read the Amityville Horror during a rain storm in New Jersey.. thank you for bringing it back up during Halloween what are you trying to scare the bejesus out of me??🎃👣👻☠️😡🧡
You know the house they used for the first movie is in Toms River
@@samanthab1923 👻💥🧡👻💥🧡 no I didn't!
He and his siblings were allegedly abused by their dad. I think it played a part in the crime. I remember seeing part of the movie on tv when I was a kid. Scared the 💩 out of me. But it led to a life long interest which is why I am here on your channel today. They purposely changed the upstairs windows.
Thank you Harmin, for another wonderful video. Great filming, great narrative, everything is just excellent as always 😊😘😀 Keep yourself safe out there, seriously...
It's gotta be weird to live next to that house or in that neighborhood knowing what happened there
Hi Harmin!!! I hope all is well. I always look forward to seeing your videos and am looking forward to more to come.
Pawsome video Harmin. We really liked it and have always been obsessed with this story. 🙀Have a great week. 🍁🧡
I just finished watching All of your clips, very interesting. Great work Harmon. Thank you
This was really good. Thank you for not going into the ghost hoax stuff and keeping it just on the actual crime.
I’ve heard the neighbors there get feisty with out of towners filming etc / I hope it went ok.😊
Here go Hollywood making money talking bout all the evil etc in the house the only evil one was ron
Bloody awesome video! Happy Halloween 🎉🥳🎃
Thank ya Harmin!☮️🌼🐝safe
Harmon, I agree with you, he did it! I've watched Amityville over and over when we had a disc player. Wish they hadn't changed the house! I also had the book. Really enjoyed your video!
Thanks for the cemetery video. Didn’t feel rushed. Appreciate the footage.
Completely credible recount! Thank you. Believe me, you are rare breed. The twists, lies of the family members, Ronnie’s victims, and sympathetic tones for the killer have been nauseating for years. So glad true crime reports are posting the truth.
Thanks Harmin! Top Guy! Fantastic channel!
Thanks! Great video as always!
Hi Harmin! Good to see you!!! I remember when The Amityville Horror book and original movie came out. It terrified me. And all my friends. I think we were in sixth grade. Great upload!! Thank you!! 😊
He definitely acted alone.
I was in tenth grade. We couldn't get enough of it. 👻👻👀👀
Hey Harmon,so good to see you and your videos,always love them and you stories. Be safe in your travels and God Bless you .
Love this video! The Amityville Horror just happens to be my favorite book!
Wow! Great job!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Crazy it’s been almost 50 years! RIP to the DeFeos. What a terrible tragedy 😢
You got yourself a new subscriber great video thanks so much for sharing it with us all
Thank you for sharing. Much appreciated 🙂👍💖
He definitely was somewhat crazy in the head, but that's no excuse for what horrible things he did to his own family. Hopefully the monster will suffer for eternity in his own personal Hell. Nice job covering the real Amityville horror 🙌🙂
Not that this is any excuse but he was also physically abused by his father....so if he was gonna kill anyione it shouldve JUST been his father not his whole family, but again he was unstable and on alot of mind altering drugs...so everything combined made him a lunatic!
Thanks so much for this upload, I'm sure the John List case is still on your "list."
oh that one freaks me out
List is another psychopath.
Excellent video Harmin.
I love your videos. Thank you ❤
Great video. Thanks Eric.
I couldn't imagine living in that house that had all those murders that took place, so tragic even though I was young when this happened, such madness happened, I'm almost positive that house has some spirits that are not at rest to this day ..
That's why the Lutzes got the house so cheap.
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for the details of this case. I’ve heard of the place and seen pictures of the bourse. But I never knew the background information of what had happened.
How could anyone want to live in that home..the energy remains.
Those 3 sided, original 3rd floor windows were just so creepy. I will never forget how those looked back when the original movie came out. Such a sad, sad story. Something about Ronald's looks reminds me of Charlie Manson.
I’m doing a project on this in school (personal choice) & I haven’t heard of it in years & here you are doing the video! That’s so cool
A good one, great presentation!!! This is one of America’s biggest tragedies.
Thank you, this was well done and I learned some new information about this famous story! RIP to the Defeo family 🙏
Congratulations on your 100,000.00 subs! 👍
It would have been interesting to see the bar and walk to the house from there.
Ohh man.. that's so true. I was running low on time between driving from the house to the cemetery etc. Sorry I couldn't film the bar
Is the bar still open and there
There's no bar anymore
Thank you harmin for this video
Hi I’ve always been into this case even read the book and saw the film in the late eighties . What a terrible tragedy take car on your travels
So sad story thanks for sharing that
Great video!!
I'm your Biggest Fan and I Love your CZcams Videos all of them
Awesome Video, the book , High Hopes: The Amityville Murders is amazing, well written!!
Thanks Harmin❤️
Thanks for posting this great video! 👍
FYI the house to your right ( at 1:45) with the white lamppost and the deer statue in the yard, is the first house that originally stood where the famous one stands now😉
Great to get the real story. Very interesting Harmin many thanks. May they all RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. I agree I think he was the one that committed these murders 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Pretty good, Marvin!
What a tragic story.
Maybe next time, try to get a boat ride to see & film the back yard, show where the boat house was, and where the kids played, etc.
And perhaps mention the Lutz family, who had bought and moved into the house afterwards, only to flee from supposed supernatural entities!
Yep you were there in the summer. Look at the green leaves on the trees. Love to see that.
Yes always wanted to visit there
Loving the beard 😍❤️
Apparently they buried the son who murdered the rest, elsewhere!
I truly think that his dad pushed him past the point and he snapped. And his drug addiction didn't help the situation. This is one of the saddest cases.
I agree. After years of mental and physical abuse, mixed in with drugs and alcohol, Ronald snapped like a rubber band.
Thank you Harmon I appreciate all your videos very sad for all the family, I agree he killed his family alone very horrific crime, Rest in Peace all the Defeo family🙏🙏👏👏
The Son did it and he did it for gain. I remember when this happened. It was national news for a while .
Been looking for your channel for awhile as I'm a subscriber to faces of the forgotten I think people are sort of fed up hearing about the apparent ghosts and stuff but U make it so much more easier to listen to
Glad you found my channel! I don't really mess around with the paranormal so you won't ever have to see it on my channel
Good job, im hoping to do my own documentary myself one day.
Harmin, you had a little blur here on your exposure, I still gave you a thumbs up baby! :-)
I saw the crime scene photos many many many years ago online. Morbid curiosity you could say, and I regret looking at them. What a terrible thing to happen to the family.
This is one of those stories that no one will never know the truth, I've seen so many documentaries and they said Ronald changed his stories so many times, you don't know what to believe. Especially about him drugging his family, and that has been proven not to be true by experts. But it's a good juicy and very sad story. Rip to the family 👪
The locals despise anyone who comes to take a peek, just like with Borley Rectory…
Good Luck....👍🤗
My dad an grandmother are buried in the same cemetery. 😢
Hello young man!
Hey there Robin! 🙋♂️ Hope you are having a good afternoon/evening. 👍
Must be the night fever! 🕺
Wow, you are in Long Island. You are all over Harmon. Lived in Long Island for several years.
Very interesting and to actually see the original house. Can't understand how people can kill especially family love from West Yorkshire UK 🇬🇧💙💚
RIP Defa0 Family. HE JUST KILLED his family
I didn't realize how batshit crazy Ronald was...
Hey harmin! ❤️
It makes you wonder if the house was haunted. Strange all was found face down & no one heard anything or got up to investigate. Then ED & Lorraine Warren said it was a very haunted house just makes you wonder. Guess we will never know the truth behind this story. Thanks for sharing this video
