Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

PETA is at it again
Quote:
The owners of the home made famous by the 1979 movie "The Amityville Horror" meticulously swapped its Hollywood look, at left, for a more modern approach, shown below.
But PETA isn't having any of that. The animal rights organization, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, would like to lease the house while it's for sale for $1.15 million for its own "Amityville Slaughterhouse of Horrors."
The haunted-house style exhibit "would graphically depict the horrors that animals who are raised and killed for meat, milk, and eggs must endure on factory farms and in slaughterhouses," according to a news release from PETA.

Look at the suckers out there.... they want to pay 1.15 MILLION to rent a house why it is on the market to be sold. Bet all those folks that donated didnt know their money was going towards rent.

Just saying PETA puts a bad taste in my mouth :-/
My little brother had a little "seminar" one time by a PETA thumper at school and it made him become a "vegetarian" at age 6. Little did he know hamburgers came from a cow as well :-p so he wouldn't eat any meat besides hamburgers. Now he is older and realizes that PETA is dumb, but come on... trying to lie to little kids to make them try to help your unworthy cause... pathetic...

WTH? There's a big difference between a Hollywood guts n gore haunted house and a PETA guts n gore haunted house - like reality!
Perhaps PETA might want to reconsider and use the location for THEIR OWN horror exhibit.
http://www.petakillsanimals.com/down...llsAnimals.pdf
According to the 2009 Virginia Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services report (linked above) submitted by Daniel A Kovice, DMH, MPH - PETA Staff Veterinarian for PETA Animal Control & Health, PETA has plenty to draw upon for it's own graphic depiction at the Amityville location. Freakin' hypocrites.

I think this is really hilarious. I'd make them sign a contract agreeing to leave the house in the same condition they found it in, and let them do it. I mean, seriously, it's 1.15 MILLION dollars...just for a lease?
They should auction that place off on Ebay afterward. I mean, Amityville was a hoax, but the house is worth a fortune to a fan. I've always thought the present owners were being very foolish about the whole thing--that place is a gold mine.
If it were mine, I'd turn it into a bed and breakfast. ^_^
