Welcome to Really Scary Real Estate, where the property values are dropping and so are the temperatures.
Every week, host Amanda Jenee tours the most haunted homes, hotels, and downright cursed locations on the planet. We're talking murder houses with "great bones," charming fixer uppers that fixed up their previous owners, and that one suburban split level where the only thing moving in is something that never moved out. If these walls could talk, they'd probably scream.
It's true crime meets ghost story meets the world's worst open house. So grab your flashlight, ignore that cold spot in the hallway, and come tour the listings nobody wants to close on. Location, location, apparition.
New episodes every week. Bodies sold separately.
