BRAVO TV Called Me- They're Doing a Story About Haunted Houses in CONNECTICUT

By
Home Stager

BRAVO TV Called me (of all people) - they're doing a story about Haunted Houses in CONNECTICUT.   The house from Amityville Horror is for sale and they're doing a show about it.  They want to know if there are any similarly noteworthy homes in Connecticut that are for sale.  I thought at first this had to be a joke (and I'm still not 100% certain that it isn't).

Apparently, They found my Active Rain blog post The Haunting in CT and the Season of Spirits  where I shared a story about a house here in Southington Connecticut that was the inspiration for the movie The Haunting in Connecticut.  (I guess I appear to be an expert on haunted houses which by they way, I am NOT).  They were hoping that house was for sale, unfortunately it isn't. 

I told them I'd do some research for them on their behalf and let them know if I could find any haunted houses in Connecticut that are for sale.  So here goes ....  If you know of any, could you please let me know!   Thanks.

P.S.  My discovered post was a result of Bob Stewart's localism challenge back in October.  Thanks Bob!

Alright, I'll take the blame :-)

Now if we can just convince Casper, The Bell Witch and the Flying Dutchman to buy houses you could be the G(h)O(st) to Agent for Goblins and Ghouls :-)

Very cool! It would be neat if you can help them find something.

Actually, the Flying Dutchman is a ghost ship........but maybe it's crew needs a place to stash their booty when they are not out pillaging and plundering

Karen that is a strange phone call, but there is nothing strange about having people contact you as a result of an ActiveRain Post.  Good luck in your search for a haunted house.

This is really cool.  I'll have to put on my thinking cap for this one.  I did some research for an out of state friend who purchased a haunted house last year, only they weren't told!! Go figure.
