Quote:The ketcham thing was in the original?See, I remember the whole indian burial ground thing, but I don\'t remember anything about ketchum in the original. The only thing I remember about Ketchum was that was one of the lame excuses people gave for the property being "haunted" which I might add was myth-busted as well as the Indian burial ground horseshit. Ketchum never tortured any indians, he was thought to have been a warlock who fled from salem, and it was all fabricated just like all the rest of the Lutz\'s nonsense. The Amityville house is said to be built on an "Indian burial ground" or a cemetery, however a 1913 record of cemeteries in the area show no cemetery on the property, and the Montaukett tribe lived miles from the location of Amityville. The house is said to be built on the site of an Indian insane asylum (to the surprise of the Montaukett tribe who never knew their ancestors had insane asylums!) I dunno, the book is good the movies are not, and the story is false.
SPOILER
I remember it being an indian burial ground or something like that in the original not indians being tortured.
