People would probably hesitate to set foot inside of a haunted property, especially on All Hallows’ Eve, however, this Halloween movie murder house in Los Angeles hasn’t seen a slasher killer in years.
Just in time for the upcoming Halloween season (and now that the September weather appears to be ending), a new real estate project has come to market. Yes, the mansion from the classic horror movie Halloween is up for sale, and if the $1.8 million (£1.4 million) asking price doesn’t put you off, you might own it.
The large property in South Pasadena, Los Angeles, was made famous in the 1978 film about murderous escaped mental patient Michael Myers.
The slasher flick notably features Jamie Lee Curtis sitting on the front porch holding a pumpkin – a scene any new owners of the house could presumably recreate with their own pumpkin.
Despite its spine-tingling backstory, the house – the estate agent says – is in an area “considered a walker’s paradise” and is made up of three separate units.
“Yes, this was a filming location for the 1978 film Halloween, as the house of Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis),” estate agent Heidi Babcock says.
“If you watch the film you’ll recognise the infamous stoop that Jamie Lee Curtis sat on, holding a pumpkin.”
In the 2021 sequel, Halloween Kills, a number of firefighters are murdered at the house.
