Art for Tubi’s “Famously Haunted: Amityville” Highlights the Infamous House [Exclusive]

Published

Free streaming service Tubi will be celebrating the spooky season all October long with their “Terror on Tubi” lineup, which includes original shows, movies, and specials.

All month long, Tubi will offer thousands of hours of scares from streaming’s biggest free Halloween movie collection, with more than 5,000 horror and paranormal titles from which to choose.

As part of “Terror on Tubi,” the streaming service is premiering four Tubi Originals, one of which is “Famously Haunted: Amityville”, a documentary on the haunted Amityville house in Long Island. The documentary focuses on the true-crime and paranormal aspects of this case that has had many people obsessed about it for generations.

Set to premiere on October 15th, Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive look at the documentary’s art.

“When infamous Amityville killer Ronnie DeFeo died behind bars earlier this year, social media blew up with a new wave of armchair detectives obsessed with the real-life horror story. Everyone wanted to know: was DeFeo’s ‘the devil made me do it’ defense simply a ploy, or did something truly evil drive the 23-year-old to savagely shoot his parents and four siblings in cold blood inside their home nearly 50 years ago? And how was all of this connected to the ghostly hauntings that drove the new residents from the same house just one year later?

“In the Tubi two-hour documentary special, ‘Famously Haunted: Amityville’, we’ll navigate the web of true crime and paranormal that’s kept viewers tangled up in the Amityville tale for generations. Key players will come together with a new chorus of voices to unpack fan theories, re-examine key pieces of evidence, and showcase gripping archival footage –including a world-exclusive– and determine once and for all what really happened at one of America’s most famously haunted addresses.”
