The synopsis I gave pretty much describes the entire book. Instead, I’m going to give my thoughts on the book and then talk about the “real” story. Since this book is supposedly based on a true story, I am not going to divide my review into non-spoiler and spoiler section. There, the Lutz family experiences a paranormal haunting. murdered his entire family the year before. Synopsis: This book follows the “real” life experiences of the Lutz family, who move into a house in Amityville, Long Island, New York in 1975. I mean, really? This is what constitutes true crime? However, I do love true crime books and I was amazed when I was browsing through my local library to see this book, a cult classic, in the true crime section. I enjoy some horror movies, but I can probably list all the horror books I’ve read on one hand. This is the book that inspired a sometimes mediocre, sometimes interesting horror movie franchise, none of which I have actually seen.
