House of Horrors: 5 Frightening Horror Movie Homes

By
Real Estate Agent with Mississippi Magnolia

The only thing that can complete a perfect pumpkin spice latte or a warm caramel apple martini is a good ol’ fashion horror flick. As a life-long devotee to horror movies — or anything Halloween related — October is somewhat of a month-long horror-binge-a-thon for myself (and anyone else I can drag along).

So to help spread the Halloween spirit — FrontDoor has featured a few of the most iconic horror movie homes.

Friday the 13th
OK, so it isn’t actually a “house” but it is the filming location for Friday The 13th, one of the most recognizable American horror franchises. Can anyone really think about camping without imagining Jason?

Amityville Horror
Interestingly, the terrifying “eye windows” that made The Amityville Horror so scary were removed after filming. I guess since this is an actual home that someone mightactually need to sell — that may have been a smart move.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre
We all know the story of Leatherface — at least I do; he robbed me of about 40,000,000,000 hours of sleep. This was the home of the cannibalistic clan in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre film. It was later relocated and opened as a restaurant. Eat at your own risk.

Rosemary's Baby
Recently remade as a television miniseries, Rosemary’s Baby was pretty terrifying when first released in 1968. Would you put up with it for such a beautiful New York City apartment? (Kidding)

The Shining House
Finally, The Shining. I still remember Jack Nicholson’s face popping through that bathroom door when I was just a little nugget. I think this may have sparked my love of the entire genre. I would definitely stay here — you know — if I skied.

While October is my excuse for binging on gore, it’s really just an opportunity to snuggle on the couch and drink cider, chocolate, or whatever I want. So wrangle up a few old horror flicks — because they are the best — for a countdown to a fun and spooky holiday.
