If you have ever wanted to spend the night at a real crime scene, then look no further than the home and murder location of supposed ax murderer Lizzie Borden.
INSIDE THE LIZZIE BORDEN HOUSE, GUESTS CAN STAY OVERNIGHT WHERE PEOPLE WERE BRUTALLY AX MURDERED
The Historic Lizzie Borden House, located in eastern Massachusetts, is now a working bed and breakfast.
The home was purchased in May 2021, by Lance Zaal, the owner of the Lizzie Borden house and president of U.S. Ghost Adventures, Fox News Digital previously reported.
"The reason I bought the house is [that] it fit perfectly with what we do with spooky haunted tours across the United States," Zaal told Fox News Digital in an in-person interview in 2023.
"We had plans to do more with physical locations — and the Lizzie Borden house was the perfect opportunity to do that."
For those hoping to experience some sort of paranomormal activity at the location, Zaal noted that the room of Bridget Sullivan, the family's maid, has had several out-of-the-ordinary encounters, with claims of music boxes sounding off and furniture being found moved across the room without a human in sight.

The spirit-filled home was sold for $1.52 million in 2022 to Jacqueline Nuñez, the owner of WonderGroup LLC, a real estate development company, according to MassLive.

Another haunted home that inspired a classic horror film is "The Amityville Horror House," which has made a few necessary changes over the years due to the home's haunted history.
Ronald DeFeo Jr., a 23-year-old, shot and killed his parents and his siblings while they slept in their beds in 1974.
Only one year later, a new family, the Lutz family, purchased the DeFeo home, which has been known as "The Amityville Horror" house, Fox News previously wrote.

After moving into the Long Island, New York, dwelling, the family reportedly experienced supernatural phenomena and were driven from the home — as the 1977 book and 1979 movie show.
The home featured in the film was not the actual Lutz family house on Long Island, but rather a home in New Jersey that was converted to look like the New York house.
Since the Lutz returned their home to the bank in 1976, the house has gone through a series of new homeowners, one who even changed the address from 112 Ocean Ave. to 108 Ocean Ave. in an effort to deter tourists from the home, Syfy.com reported.
It's a private residence, so you cannot tour the house or seek out any sort of paranormal activity, but it has been noted that the home has not had any spooky reports since the Lutz family lived there.
