I don't mind places where people died, hence no real issue with a murder house. I don't like places where corpses are pumped full of chemicals, dressed up like dolls, painted with makeup, viewed like a museum exhibit, etc. They smell funny and are just places where weird shit takes place on the regular.

My wife would actively push to buy that kind of house. I could make my peace with it. Places that used to be funeral homes though - no way, I wouldn't do it, they creep me out.
What's the difference?

what bothers you more, the idea that someone suffered there, or that its investment value is affected by others' distaste?Um the former obviously. odd question.
um absolutely not inferable from your OP, which is why i asked. Now regretting it.
the financial hit would already have occurred if i were to buy it, so it is illogical to ask that question.

This funeral director was dumping body parts yards from my house.

The cemetery in question was right behind my house. Silly thing was this guy continued to thrive after admitting he did it. Haines City originated as one of those towns that sprouted up after the emancipation proclamation during the Jim Crow era. Places where black communities thrived in terms of politics and business. However, they are largely out of date and never evolved. Instead becoming equivalent to most small town political machines where the same corrupt individuals get reelected and throw scraps to key figures in the community in exchange for their support. When Orlando Suburbs extended to Haines City, they saw windfall tax revenues and directed it to older constituencies who didn't contribute significantly to the windfall.
This guy is an example of that corrupt community that accepted corrupt behavior in exchange for having their people in power.

Next question. Would you murder somebody for a house, inside the same house?

The funeral home my wife poked around in was in foreclosure because the funeral director had a gambling problem, didn't have the money to actually deal with the bodies, so was parking them in a storage facility out in the suburbs. His behavior was not accepted once it was discovered.

The funeral industry consistently rates among the top in corruption.

Why wouldn't you?
Ghosts are a figment of the imagination.
I would buy a murder house.
How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

Not ghosts, but it would be just weird stepping into the living room and always being like this is where the former occupants was stabbed in the heart.
