About this listen

This week on The Lawmas Podcast, Lauren and Lacey kick off Spooky October by asking a surprising question: if your house is haunted, do you legally have to tell buyers? Inspired by the infamous Amityville Horror case, they explore how a true crime turned ghost story ended up shaping real estate law.

Along the way, they tackle Halloween trespassing rules, self-defense and costumes (can you really carry that fake knife as Michael Myers?), and how far “defending your property” can go before the law steps in. The conversation mixes legal analysis with personal stories, from family costumes to unexplained encounters that bring both laughs and chills.

If you’ve ever wondered where the courtroom meets the supernatural, this episode has the answers.
