"The cold--um, yes. Well, actually, the house is permeated with unspeakable evil."

For those stuck on the idea of home ownership as bliss, remember, some houses could be a tad less delightful upon better acquaintance.

Oh darn, I just spent $500,000 on this place? You mean I can't find another rental down in Cook St Village, I have to spend the rest of my days in this run-down haunted house on [...] (pick a dillapidated suburb)?

Are haunted houses as overpriced as everything else these days?

Which reminds me, I once went to see a townhouse, and after looking around, the agent said "I have something to tell you, some terrible not nice stuff happened in this house.  Really terrible not nice stuff."

Of course, even that horrible townhouse is now worth twice as much.

If only I'd been prepared for 5 years of nightmares, I could have doubled my money!
