Would you live in a house that someone died in or was murder in?

Hi, I know many people that wouldn't live in a house where someone has died in let alone someone that was murder in. I had a cousin die of cancer and he died at his home and his family said they wouldn't live in the house because they said they heard sounds at night and got the creeps so they moved out and sold the house. Myself I wouldn't have problem living in the house because my cousin wanted to die there. My cousin was only 42.


Thanks, Robert

Actually, I do live in a home that someone died in.

My family has a weekend home on the Chespeake Bay. Our next door neighbor, Nick, had no family or friends so we kind of adopted him. When he committed suicide, he left the home to us. My bedroom in the home is the same room where he killed himself.

It's a beautiful home and, while I'm sorry that he felt the need to end his life there, there is much more life than death there.

This is my 2nd house, that I know of, that I have lived in that someone died in. I have no problem with it. I may have more problems if someone was murdered in the house, though.

Yours in Christ,
Jen

I would live in the house, but if someone committed suicide there, I would probably pray over the house when I moved in. We have been given power over ALL OF THE ENEMY, and must remember that, not fearing it's power.

Maybe if someone died in a house, I could get $10,000 knocked off the price :| If someone was murdered in a house, I would definately check the neighborhood before moving in--no superstition; just good sense. I say investigate the crime and see the nature of it. But there is no creepy crawly problem with a person's body losing its function inside a structure. That's just plain nonesense. ANY house with a little bit of age is going to have a history of people dying in it--my grandfather died in my house, and I've been living here for years without torment. A person's death does not change the composition of nearby wood and sheet rock. Death is death. Wood is wood. How bout walking on a dirt road by a graveyard? :O
