<P> On the night of March 6, 1976, the house was investigated by Ed and Lorraine Warren, a husband and wife team self - described as demonologists, together with a crew from the television station Channel 5 New York and reporter Michael Linder of WNEW - FM . During the course of the investigation Gene Campbell took a series of infrared time - lapse photographs . One of the images allegedly showed a "demonic boy" with glowing eyes who was standing at the foot of a staircase . The photograph did not emerge into the public domain until 1979, when George and Kathy Lutz and Rod Steiger appeared on The Merv Griffin Show to promote the release of the first film . 112 Ocean Avenue was also investigated by the parapsychologist Hans Holzer . The Warrens and Holzer have suggested that the house is occupied by malevolent spirits due to its history . </P> <P> George Lutz registered the phrase The Amityville Horror as a trademark in 2002 and it is referred to as The Amityville Horror TM on his official website . Lutz claimed that the film producers embellished or fabricated events portrayed in the 1979 version and the 2005 remake . He also claimed that the producers of the 2005 film did not involve his family and that they used his name without permission . </P> <P> The house known as 112 Ocean Avenue still exists but it has been renovated and the address changed in order to discourage sightseers from visiting it . The famous quarter round windows have been removed and the house today looks considerably different from its depiction in the films . The house in Toms River used as the location for the first three films has also been modified for the same reason . For the 2005 film version, the house was renamed 412 Ocean Avenue . The 2005 film remake says that the basement of the Lutz home was built in 1692, but 112 Ocean Avenue--also known as High Hopes--was built around 1924 for John and Catherine Moynahan . </P> <P> The local residents and authorities in Amityville, New York, are unhappy with the attention that The Amityville Horror brings to the town and tend to decline requests to discuss it publicly . The website of the Amityville Historical Society makes no mention of the murders by Ronald DeFeo, Jr. in 1974 or the period that the Lutz family lived at 112 Ocean Avenue . When the History Channel made its documentary about The Amityville Horror in 2000, no member of the Historical Society would discuss the matter on camera . </P>
