Hmmm.  I'm not sure about that.  I would probably want more details but then again, being a visual person, that could be a mistake.    :(

I absolutely would not.  Wouldn't take a chance on something so important, my home.  Bad energy, and maybe worse, may easily be felt/experienced.

Buy it ? Yes. Live in it, probably not. Rent it out.

No.....Not if there had been a murder,i would if the person had died of natural causes.I have rented a home where a lady died of a heart attack,there was never a problem.

No Way .....

Recently in my area there was a child murdered. I'm having a terrible time trying to deal with it! I hate to turn on the news because I want no more details! I pray the little girl is at peace.

I rented a room in an old house where the Chinese cook had been murdered by the owner in 1870. The Chinese cook was obvious to me and I talked with him early in the mornings. He was not aware of being dead. Anyone in the kitchen without his permission was likely to be cut while handling a knife. He had been killed by the owner because the owner did not understand Chinese cooking and their use of fermented soybeans for flavor. The owner thought he was being poisoned by the cook and blamed every ill on the Chinese. His irrational belief grew until he shot the cook dead. He remembered the loud noise and then would go to his room to sleep. Then in the morning he would arise, as usual, to begin his day. It took a few days to convince him that he was dead, but when he knew…he saw the Light and left. 

My former wife died in our home .... God, I wish she'd contact me.

How do you know you haven't? unless it is new and you are the 1st occupants. Just because there is not a record of a murder doesn 't neccessarily mean there has not been one on the premises not in this day and age when people cut up their daughters and put them in suitcases for bringing dishonour onto their families  

No way, thanks.

Dont think i would.In fact i dont think id live anywhere where someones died.At least our house has been in the family since it was built ,so im lucky i know its history

Yes I would, if the murder was solved. 

no way in hell, if someone was murdered in the house. But, I would by a house that someone died in of natural causes. Many parties have lived in the house that my grandma died in. She was old. My next door neighbor cheerfully told me that the previous owner's 1st wife, of my house died here.

I am sensitive to the spirit world...those who have died but have not moved on...murder victims often linger until the murderer has been caught, arrested, and imprisoned.  So, maybe.  I would want more details first.  However, these homes are often less expensive then their equals in a neighborhood.

I lived in a rented house where a man had caught his wife’s lover in bed with her. The house was a terrible experience. Winds blowing down the hall, the sound of shattering glass where there was no windows. Our dog barked for no reason ... on and on. Our family was not happy during the three years we lived there. Never again.

Probably if it wasn't a really gruesome murder, or John Wayne Gayce's old house. Just a personal thing, that If it was too gruesome a scene, I don't think I'd be able to not envision it as it occured.

I wouldn't seek out a home that met that criteria.  For nearly 20 years, I lived on a 40 acre ranch where my dad's uncle had died of a heart attack while plowing the fields.  It wasn't a problem.  Kinda creepy question, don'tcha think??

It would cut down on my purchase of conversation pieces.

Depends,  but I would not automaticiiy  rule it out

YES. Poor house did not kill any one. KILLING was someoneelse's action and has nothing to do with the house. 

I would as long as I wouldn't have to take the murderer along with the house.

Don't believe in spooks.

No I couldn't, I had a friend that was murdered in her backyard, the papers called it the house of horrors, I couldn't imagine living there' hated even walking past, I wouldn't live in an old church either

yes.

 Dose The house has a history of violence ? If it was just a one time thing chances are you have nothing to worry about. If you do your homework and see if this has ever happened in the past then I would have to think twice. Most Ghost don't stay around in a other wise empty house (unless they have unfinished issues with the previous owners. But in most cases that is very unlikly . Hope this has helped you with  your question.

maybe not.

Why not? People are dying at he rate of one every second, but it all depends how long it took the authorities to find the body(s), cuz that means, it would take awhile to air out.  The County Coroner sometimes helps by spraying "Death Spray" a powerfulf deoderizer. To top it off, one might be able to get a better deal from the seller if they knew, but I wouldn't suggest killing someone, so as to put yourself in a better bagaining position.

yes, no problem

It is not only the house that can speak but also the land it is on. Sometimes people are drawn to a certain house by it's former inhabitants. Maybe this house or land is calling you to it. If you buy it and start to experience things, there are several things you can do.

No.  I once owned a house that was built on a site that a family died in... definitely no.
