Is the land an ancient Indian burial ground?
Unknown. When the Lutzes did research on the property, they found information at the Amityville Historical Society that the land was a place where Indians were buried. According to Hans Holzer, a curator at the Amityville Historical Society once told him the skeleton of an Indian chief was unearthed on or near the property in the early 1900’s. However, this information can no longer be found at the Historical Society. Some say it was removed shortly after Jay Anson’s book came out while others claim it was never there in the first place.
