Tasteful friends the Los Feliz murder mansion is up for sale again

Background on the house.

I like to believe I'm not superstitious, but I could never live in a murder house.

Also, those stories of people living in closets and crawl spaces within other people's homes without their knowledge freak me out.

Occasionally, I'll hear a noise late at night when I'm alone and need to do a walk through turning on all lights and checking every room, closet, and pull back all shower curtains.

A house like that will attract weirdos. If it's not "ghosts" haunting you, the psychos will come out of the woodwork.

I can't afford it so I'll never have to worry about living there.

Strangely, it looks like there’s a giant cross in front of the house to ward off evil.

It's not so much the murders as that house is just fucking creepy. Houses do have bad energy and this one has it in spades 😬

Has this actually been done up or are those just AI renderings in the listing I wonder. It looks really decayed in the article R1 posted, if it's still like that this is pretty much a knockdown. I dont care in the slightest about it being a murder house, I'd be far more concerned about the structural issues caused by 50-60 years of neglect

What happened to the condo Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were murdered at? Is it still there?

I have lived in a haunted house and it is not worth getting a house on the cheap. They will Regret it, Big Time.

I was just about to say the reno was beautiful but then I realized it’s computer generated drawings

The house is ugly especially since Ennis House looks so incongruous next to it

I’d surround that house with some bottle (cobalt blue) trees and mirrors and brooms in front of any doors that lead to the outside. Probably burn sage inside every day. Still, I wouldn’t live there.

R8 Tell us more!

Wait - some investor bought this for 2.35 million in Dec 2020 and now - with nothing changed - wants to sell it for close to 4 million?

The AI photos are getting good - I didn't catch on it wasn't real until I read the description and the actual photos at the end.

I also could not live in a house with this KNOWN history. Lots of people die all the time at home - more than we care to admit or know - but the murder of your wife and child and then offing yourself isn't quite the same as an OD or passing away in your sleep.

Yeah, I'd be more concerned about decades of neglect than that a murder happened there.

This picture here, is that the guy who murdered everyone who just happens to show up on your widescreen at will to creep you out?

This is a complete tear down, I don’t know why any hasn’t bothered.

R6, that's a rendering for the property on Zillow. The bottom pictures are what it looks like currently. The murder house would definitely being torn down. I live in LA and a house next door was on the Native Plant tour earlier this year. I couldn't help a whispered "omg, is that ...??!?" to one of the docents. I think some of the other visitors were oblivious to anything funny about the location. Really nice couple own it. They're trying to heal the earth with native plants!

I thought that Gloria Allred’s daughter and her husband bought that house a fire years ago. The daughter is a famous lawyer , too - it is not clicking in - but they were going to update the house and live in it…. Weren’t there old stories that the Christmas Tree was still up?

Yeah - I think between the decades of not having anyone living there plus the murders plus the cost of updating everything to modern standards, it's probably best to tear it down.

I wouldn't feel weird about living in a lot where murders happened - I would about living in the same bedroom.

I love how, in the era of social media influencers and viral videos, trespassers and people committing B+E are referred to as “urban explorers.”

Ridiculous. I own a vacant house next door and when a trio of teenagers broke in to do some “exploring” I went over with a pistol and held them at gunpoint until the police arrived.

The parents were livid, and contacted me threatening to sue, for what I’m not sure. I told them to go ahead a try but if they didn’t keep their kids supervised and off of my property they might be planning funerals instead of lawsuits next time.

I find it bizarre that one family owned it for 50 years and never once lived in it. why keep it?

Didn't the LaBiancas live in Los Feliz?

actual photos

R11......i was always interested in whether "ghosts" were real....i really wish i hadnt found out. Dont mess around haunted places. And definitely Dont live in one.

I remember reading that the house had been left the way it was (untouched, basically) since the murders. People pointed to the image rescue-chick shared which shows a bunch of Christmas wrapping paper and ribbons on the coffee table (the murders happened in early December 1959).

This was disputed by some people, though, who claimed that the subsequent owners maintained the property for storage and that it hadn't actually been untouched or abandoned. Also, the Perelsons were Jewish, so it wouldn't make much sense that they'd hace any Christmas stuff (unless perhaps they were heritage-only Jews and didn't practice the religion—then, maybe, but still seems unlikely).

In any case, I can certainly see why people would assume the house had been left more or less untouched again after the murder, because all of the furniture is vintage and of the period. The whole thing is very odd.

The photographer at the link was allowed in to tour the house in 2016 before the new owners removed items. She said she was disappointed to find there was no Christmas tree or presents in the house. She did have one photo of a bow near the lid of a discarded gift box but that was all she found.

R23 They’re not real. See how easy that was?

^ Yeah, until things go bump in the night 👻

Just looking at this house sucks the life out of you. Maybe not ghosts, but certainly negative energy

The forum at Findadeath.com had/has a miles long thread about this house, spanning years. So many people were trying to get to the bottom of the history of the house, and who the (then) current owner was. There there were quite a few twists and turns along the way. This house really does have a remarkably creepy vibe about it. I was surprised when Lisa Bloom, Gloria Allred's daughter, bought it. Not so surprised to see that she did nothing with it. On the one hand it would be a bit sad to tear it down, but I think that's the only way anyone is ever going to ever make use of that property.

I was about to say that is a lot of house for that kind of money. Then when I realized most of those photos were fake it thought, WELL SHIT!

But, if it was done up like the fake images show I wouldn't have any problem living there if the price was right. I'm not the suspicious type.
