First Appearance


Long Island is an island located in southeastern New York, United States, just east of Manhattan. Stretching northeast into the Atlantic Ocean, Long Island contains four counties, two of which are boroughs (Queens and Brooklyn) of New York City, and two of which (Nassau and Suffolk) are mainly suburban. Nine bridges and thirteen tunnels connect Brooklyn and Queens (and thus Long Island) to the three other boroughs of New York City. Ferries connect Suffolk County northward across Long Island Sound to the state of Connecticut. Two of New York City's major airports, La Guardia and JFK, are located on Long Island.

Amityville
Amityville is an incorporated village located in Long Island in the state of New York. It is in the Town of Babylon in Suffolk County. The town gained infamy in 1974 when, on November 13th, Ronald DeFeo, Jr. murdered his parents and four siblings with a Marlin 336C rifle in their home at 112 Ocean Avenue. In 1975, George and Kathy Lutz and Kathy's children moved into the DeFeo house, but vacated the home after only twenty-eight days claiming to have been terrorized by demonic phenomena during their brief time there. Both incidents provided the foundation for a book by Jay Anson called The Amityville Horror, which was adapted into a feature film in 1979 and yielded numerous sequels and spin-offs. The Lutz' claims of paranormal activity have long since been debunked and are largely considered to be a hoax perpetuated by George Lutz.
