Haunted and For Sale | M.P. Pellicer

When you see a horror movie about a cursed house, once the credits roll you sigh with relief because you live in an ordinary house. Everything changes when it comes to actually buying one, and then living in a home that's stigmatized either by murder, suicide or an actual haunting.


On occasion the first to discover that a property might be problematic is the realtor. Dana Bull arrived with an inspector at a two-family property in Salem, Massachusetts. One of the units was occupied, and the buyer needed her feedback before deciding if they should stay, or if new tenants were in order.

The Hexed House | M.P. Pellicer

It was after 1912 that the first houses were built overlooking Benedict Canyon in Beverly Hills. A spacious, Bavarian-style house was constructed at 9820 Easton Drive in 1930 for Paul Bern, an MGM executive. Why grisly death was to become a familiar visitor there remains a mystery.


Completed when Prohibition was the law of the land, the architects hid a bar behind a book case. However there would be darker secrets the house would keep as the years passed.

Black Magic Manor | M.P. Pellicer

Boleskine House sits on the southeast side of Loch Ness and has a history of death dating back to the 10th century, when according to legend it was built atop the ruins of a Scottish kirk that burnt to the ground with its congregants trapped inside. And this was only the beginning.


The building was constructed in the 1760s by Colonel Archibald Fraser of Lovat (1736-1815) as a hunting lodge at Inverfarigaig, Scotland.
