The 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is being sold by Lauren Murdock with Equity Union and was listed for $1,174,999. The home was the setting for the 1982 supernatural horror film, which was directed by Tobe Hopper and co-produced by Steven Spielberg. TMZ was the first to report the news.

Aside from the house’s haunted past, the property has an even greater appeal – the house is now a listed building for the first time in 45 years.

The single-family home at 4267 Roxbury Street, less than an hour outside of Los Angeles in Simi Valley, California, “is the house where much of the first movie in the series was filmed,” Equity Union’s press release states. The agency insists that “this house is clean.”

“Plus, it’s much safer than building a portal to another dimension!” the ad says. “Don’t miss your chance to own this iconic piece of Hollywood history. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to live in a home with history, just without the ghosts.”

poltergeist follows the Freelings, a family of five who are terrorized by ghosts before their youngest child is kidnapped by the supernatural visitors.

The 1982 film grossed $121.7 million at the box office. Two more films followed, including Poltergeist II: The Other Side in 1986 and Poltergeist III in 1988. A remake was also released in 2015.
