On the market for the first time in 45 years, the iconic house from the 1982 horror film “Poltergeist” awaits a daring buyer. TV with spooky ghosts not included!
The Simi Valley, CA, residence is listed for $1,174,999. Its brush with scary movie history also made it this week’s most popular home on Realtor.com®.
The listing notes confirm its place in horror movie history: “This is the home where much of the first movie of the series was filmed, but ‘This house is clean. Seriously, it is!'”
(Warner Bros. 1982)
No exorcism is needed here.
This charming dwelling, which served as the Freeling family house, offers four bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and absolutely, positively “no ghostly antics,” the listing cheekily states.
Fans of the trailblazing supernatural flick will likely recognize the space.
Dare you to look
Step into the foyer and “immediately feel the good energy” of this well-maintained home, the listing says.
Built in 1979, the 2,373-square-foot residence includes a large living room with oversized windows, a formal dining room, and the “infamous” kitchen, which is still in its original form.
The appliances have been changed out, but otherwise, it’s the white-tiled kitchen where chairs freakishly stacked themselves.

Fun Halloween hangout?
The layout also includes a family room with a fireplace, a built-in office nook, and a half-bath. The four bedrooms, including the primary suite, are all upstairs. A three-car garage offers plentiful storage.
Set on a third of an acre, the property includes a pool and spa—and space to add a pool house or guest unit.
It’s much safer than “building a portal to another dimension,” the listing notes.
In addition to owning a piece of Hollywood history, imagine having this house around Halloween!
