Remember the 1982 movie Poltergeist? Of course you do, it was written by Steven Spielberg and directed by Tobe Hopper and scared the pants off us. More than 40 years later, you have the opportunity to buy the house where it took place. The four-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom house in Simi Valley comes with 2,373 of interior space. It can be yours for just $1,174,999. The home has had the same owners since before the movie was made, and they haven't substantially changed the house. Now, if you recall anything about the film, you no doubt have a distinct memory of the house being completely destroyed, with not even a pile of rubble left.
Ah, memories. But that was just movie magic. The house is real, the destruction was not. And there are no bodies buried underneath. Still, imagine living here and playing the movie for family reunions and holiday celebrations. See 49 photos at the real estate listing. Television not included. -via Boing Boing
