The house from American Horror Story is up for sale
By James Brady RyanDecember 13th, 2011, 3:30 pmComments (6)Are you looking for a stylish mansion in L.A. featuring a ballroom, Tiffany glass windows, and a built-in sense of unrelenting, crazy-ass terror? Well, you're in luck! Because the so-called "Murder House" from American Horror Story is up for sale! (It's also got a recording studio, so that's cool. Except anything recorded there just comes out as blood-curdling screams and the haunting sound of children's laughter. I'm pretty sure Ke$ha used it for her last album.)
Here's the listing, courtesy of Rodeo Realty:
TIFFANY STAINED GLASS WINDOWS, TIFFANY LIGHT FIXTURES, TIFFANY LEADED-GLASS DISPLAY CASES AND A MUSEUM-QUALITY SET OF TIFFANY GLASS DOORS ADORN THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND RESIDENCE. ADDITIONAL FEATURES INCLUDE RICH WOOD PANELING, WOOD FLOORS, 6 VINTAGE TILE FIREPLACES, BEAMED CEILINGS AND COUNTLESS OTHER ORIGINAL DETAILS. FORMAL DINING ROOM WITH ANTIQUE GOLD AND SILVER LEAF HAND-PAINTED CEILINGS. LARGE SOLARIUM OVERLOOKING THE BEAUTIFUL, PRIVATE GROUNDS. BREATHTAKING IN EVERY RESPECT, THIS RESIDENCE EVOKES THE QUALITY AND GRANDEUR OF A BYGONE ERA AND REPRESENTS A ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION OPPORTUNITY.
And all you need to make this stunning piece of architecture yours is 4.5 million dollars! I know that sounds expensive, but if you break it down that comes out to about 180 thousand bucks per ghost, which is kind of a great deal given the current ghost bubble that shows no signs of popping anytime soon! But, full disclosure: the house has had a termite problem in the past. Also, you will almost certainly be sexually assaulted by a dead person wearing a gimp suit. Great schools in the area, though.

The ultimate piece of television kitsch. I'm deeply envious of the rich nerd that gets their hands on this house.
Are you sure this isn't a joke? How could the house be up for sale if the show's still filming? And it's being sold by an Armenian guy (cf the show?)
And turned into apartments!
So ... what about the neighbors? Jessica Lange seems like a cool person just don't, uhhh, eat any baked goods she brings over.
4.5 Million? The listing clearly says 17 million.
What a rip off it was 4.5 and now they raised it to 17 mil get a clue people it was only on one season. Con artist rip off real estate agents who raises a house that much? bad luck yo you for trying to rip people off
