Most serial killers have an overbearing mother and absentee father, with Butch Defeo his father worked for his grandfather so they could've gotten the father to leave and financially their lives would not have changed. Also his father gave him a head injury. Many killers have head injuries in common.
People are responsible for their own actions. I do believe in psychological trauma, but are you actually sympathizing a man who killed even his young siblings?

This is the only way I can watch horror stories and serial killer videos. I'm too scared to watch all this in real motion picture although I have a knack for it. Thank you so much for the work you do. I love all the information and stories you put out.
Me and my family after coming back from mcdonalds after eating a bacon cheeseburger: 😵💀 My mom who is obsessed with huel protein shakes: Told u to eat better 😊
They brought it up because at the time many people believed the second family just made it up for fame and money so they needed more evidence for the enfield case
Yeah, I noticed the same thing, and thought it was weird. I think saying that The Conjuring 2 was inspired by Amityville is a bit of a stretch, maybe they meant the first Conjuring movie
I hate when serial killers like this try to justify themselves saying "My father hit me/was abusive". Like yeah, that's why you killed innocent children.
Yea it’s one thing to say that horrible trauma influenced someone development but we can’t just ignore horrible crimes. Seeing why people become killers is better for prevention
@@braydicus yes of course, the neighbors were also possibly in shock and couldn't hear the rifle rounds being fired off as well. Anything is possible! 😄
@@ladyj2552 its poltergeist that happened to a family that makes this haunting look kinda weak lol. look up The Haunted 1991 movie here on youtube its based on it. also google Smurl haunting.
Per Wikipedia “Historical basis. On November 13, 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed six members of his family at 112 Ocean Avenue, a large Dutch Colonial house situated in a suburban neighborhood in Amityville, on the south shore of Long Island, New York.” I’m from Long Island and have seen the house myself. I’m pretty sure I’d remember if I was in Jersey or not.
In the 70's the family across the street from my grandmother USED to have the most VIOLENT full family physical flights I have ever seen to this day. The father actually was a school teacher. He once threw a pitch fork from a second floor Deck at his 16 or so Year old son going completely through his thigh. Imagine explaining that to emergency room doctors today?
Insanity pleas are not what you think they are, you don’t get a lighter sentence, you get a different treatment, you get put into a mental facility for life and the isolation will drive you crazy
I lived around the block from this house for awhile when I was younger. I always felt bad for the people that lived there during Halloween 🎃 so many people used to drive by
0:35... I'm surprised that they have the Freedom Tower shown in this clip despite the fact that this story takes place in 1975. Or maybe showing WTC towers is still just too, painful.
I don't support Butch killing anybody, but if he had only killed his father he probably wouldn't have died in prison. That's why I don't buy that he killed everybody because he was abused. I think he killed both of his parents and all of his siblings because he wanted to be the sole heir to his parents estate. It was greed that was the true horror in Amityville.
I go to school in Farmingdale, NY, which is a town 20 minutes away from Amityville. Just earlier this night, the night of the publication of this comment, I drove over to 112 Ocean Ave to see the house for myself. It’s funny how normal everything looked. A dog was strolling on the far side of a fence (the fence that faces toward the street), and there was a huge, blow-up dragon spewing smoke from its mouth perched on top of the house as a Halloween decoration. The family that lives in the house was also casually setting up other decorations as I drove by. So weird to think that these people are so undaunted in the face of the evil that occupied that house circa 50 years ago. Almost makes the house look appealing enough to live in it myself. Almost
I saw this house out of my bedroom window, directly across the canal (Riverside Ave) for 2 years. I couldn't stop at 7-11 without giving directions to someone almost every day. It's weird how the movies portray it as almost rural and on a lake, it's a canal and probably 1/4th of an acre lot, maybe less.
A haunted house cursed by the greed, sadness, and hatred of the killer. Rest in Peace, DeFeo family, and I hope Butch recovered his sanity and regret what he did in the Purgatory...
Ugh...I can’t believe you are buying into that hocus pocus even after the facts are laid bare. I lived one town over and only the people that are lost in the magical fairy dust land of religion buy into this still.
I live 15 minutes away from this house and just driving past it give me chills. But probably I was influenced by the stories of it all. Seems to me the hauntings may be exaggerated if not completely false. Even more sad is we’re never going to truly know what happened to The DeFeo family.
St Charles cemetery in Farmingdale NY, is where they are buried. Not New Jersey. I used to work there and to pass by their graves always gave me an eerie feeling.
The timeline is pretty compact: Nov. '74: multiple homicides take place in the house Dec. '75: the Lutz family moves in Jan. '76: the Lutz family flees Sept. '77: the book gets published Summer '79: the movie hits theaters across the nation
My grandma lives blocks away from the real house. It's still very ominous looking, although the missing quarter moon windows take away from it somewhat.
The only thing that doesn't make sense in this story, is how did no one hear gunshots? Experts inspected rhe gun and said there was no evidence of it using a suppressor and that the gun which was used was notoriously loud.
I'm still wondering if dawn had something to do with it. She had gun powder on her night gown. Butch has changed his story alot over the years so you cant trust him 100% yet there is no conceivable reason for dawn to have that on her dress unless she fired a gun that night

An interesting coincidence: Jay Anson, author of "The Amityville Horror" died on March 12, 1980. Ronald DeFeo, Jr. the killer, died on March 2021.
Jay Anson also wrote another haunted house story " 666"
The real horror in this story are the people. Imagine being so abusive you turned someone into a serial killer.
he may well be in amphetamine induced psychosis while doing all it, abusive parents and heavy drug use is terrible combination for disaster
