LEGALLY HAUNTED: The Nyack Ruling And The Buyers Who'd Move In Anyway | #WeirdDarkNEWS
Weird Darkness: Paranormal & True Crime StoriesShow Notes
In 1991 a New York appeals court ruled a house in Nyack haunted as a matter of law, and a survey posted on October 12th says more than half of Americans could be talked into buying a house they knew was haunted. Of the four states said to have laws on it, only two mention the paranormal in a statute, and in both of them the seller doesn't have to bring it up.
