AMITYVILLE: AN ORIGIN STORY

Series Premieres Sunday, April 23 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT

AMITYVILLE: AN ORIGIN STORY tells the story behind the world’s most infamous haunted house tale: the Amityville murders. The project is the first elevated look at every aspect of this wildly layered story about the heinous murder of a family of six that became eclipsed by paranormal controversy.

The 1979 blockbuster film, The Amityville Horror, inspired by the book of the same title by Jay Anson spawned an ever-expanding universe of movies, books, supernatural theories, and horror superfans. But the mass murder behind the hauntings—and its alleged ties to organized crime—left a long trail of questions that have never been fully explored.

Rooted in the dark cultural undercurrents of the 1970s, the series features firsthand accounts from witnesses, family members, and former investigators appearing on-camera for the first time. Exclusive archival footage, newly unearthed images, and stunning original photography are woven together into the most compelling and comprehensive telling of the Amityville story yet, taking viewers on a heart-pounding roller coaster ride through the mythology, factual record, and devastating human toll of this notorious meta-narrative.

Executive Produced by: Lesley Chilcott, Blaine Duncan, Brooklyn Hudson, Amanda Raymond, Rhett Bachner, and Brien Meagher
Directed and Executive Produced by: Jack Riccobono
International Distributor: MGM

“The Haunting”- April 23, 2023 at 10 P.M. ET/PT
When George & Kathy Lutz move into a suburban dream home in 1975, a cascade of terrifying, unexplainable events drives them out in just 28 days. Those closest to the terror share their truths about the story that launched The Amityville Horror sensation.
