BUYER BEWARE! ‘AMITYVILLE HORROR’ HOUSE FOR SALE.

For just over one million dollars, you can own one of the most feared houses in all of suburbia. Located on sunny Ocean Avenue in Long Island, New York, the house in question was once occupied by the Lutz family, who described a variety of eerie goings-on in the book The Amityville Horror (which was later adapted into more than a few movies).

Oh, yeah. And before that, a gentleman murdered his family there.

Behold the actual real estate ad.

If YOU had a million dollars, would you choose a house with an (alleged) haunted history? Or would you prefer something a little less horrific?


“HAPPY PAC-MAN DAY!” FROM GOOGLE & ALIENS.

[UPDATE: A permanent Pac-link now resides at Google.com/pacman. Special thanks to FREAKAZOID for the tip.]

By now you’ve probably heard (and heard and heard) about today’s “ghost sightings” over at Google. For two days only, Google is hosting a free version of the original Pac-Man game.

Yes, behold hungry-hungry Pac-Man versus those rainbow-colored wraiths Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde!

Here are a few secrets for all of you ‘core gamers:

    To play Pac-Man, click the “INSERT COIN” button. Easy peasy. To play Ms. Pac-Man Co-Op Mode, double-click the “INSERT COIN” button, and use the W-A-S-D keys to navigate.

    Google’s Pac-Man is also compatible with iPhone OS! That means you can chomp your ghosts on the go, via iPhone, iPod Touch, and glorious iPad. Alas, the only thing missing is sound.

Of course, this wouldn’t be THE FEARSEEKER FILES without a horrific twist. So here it is: A few years back, a Pac-Man crop circle was discovered in the UK at lat: 51.4001846313, long: -0.985098004341.


A message from aliens (or hoaxers) in the UK: "You think this is a game?"

Aliens (or hoaxers) are gamers too. IS IT REAL?

HAS EVERYBODY SEEN THE NEW SPIELBERG/ABRAMS/AREA 51 TRAILER?

Playing before select screenings of IRON “MEH” 2 is a preview for the top-secret Area 51-related movie from Steven Spielberg and J.J. Abrams, he of CLOVERFIELD fame!

Watch below until the YouTube copyright cops attack, or No embed is officially available yet, so view the ginormous pristine HD version on Apple.com. Stay alert for possible subliminal, split-second images during the staticky moments. Just sayin’ is all.

SUPER 8 isn’t due in theaters until summer 2011.

Isn’t it funny how we wait so long for a summer movie to come out, and then the waiting game immediately begins anew, thanks to a killer trailer before the main event? It’s not “ha-ha” funny, of course, but more like tickle-torture funny.

WELL-ARMORED SEA CREATURE INTRODUCES SELF TO MEDIA, SCIENTISTS.

FoxNews reports a “terrifying sea critter hauled from ocean depths.”

The ocean depths beg to differ. Deep Sea News describes many errors in the Fox News report.

Surely, we all agree on one key point: Something icky scampered its way out of the ocean — and into our hearts.

AN OPEN LETTER TO MR. TIM BURTON RE: ‘MALIFICENT’

Dear Mr. Tim Burton, Sir:

If it wouldn’t trouble you terribly, please do direct MALIFICENT, the “dark” retelling of SLEEPING BEAUTY that is reportedly on your “maybe” list right now. While the idea of retelling a popular tale from the perspective of the wicked female villain is not altogether original, nobody has cast Ms. Angelina Jolie in such a tale before.

This is highly advisable.

Thank you for your time and attention.
