House From Slasher ‘Halloween’ Lists for $1.8 Million

A California house featured in the 1978 slasher film “Halloween” has hit the market for $1.8 million.

The South Pasadena house was used as the fictional Haddonfield, Illinois, home of teenager Laurie Strode—played by Jamie Lee Curtis—in the horror classic, according to Heidi T. Babcock and Andrea Marcum-Valentine at EXP of Greater Los Angeles, who listed the property last week.

Fans will recognise the stoop where Curtis sat in the first “Halloween” movie, holding a pumpkin, the agents noted. Based on the story of Michael Myers and his murderous exploits, the film was one of the first big breaks in Curtis’s career and the franchise went on to include 12 titles. “Halloween Ends,” also starring Curtis, was released last year.

The home was built in 1906, with additions from 1948. It’s been in the same family for generations, according to Babcock, and is now a “legal triplex,” giving the buyer rental opportunities.

There are two one-bedroom, one-bathroom units, plus a two-bedroom apartment—all of which are currently unoccupied. They each have “picturesque windows and lovely views of the surrounding trees and neighbourhood,” and there’s a shared backyard, the listing said.

Outside, there’s an avocado tree planted by the sellers’ grandfather in the 1940s, according to the listing. They were not available for comment, and Mansion Global could not determine exactly when the home last traded or for how much.

The property is located in the historic Mission West neighbourhood of South Pasadena, an area known for its walkability, Babcock said. Shops, restaurants, a farmer’s market and the library are all within a short walk, and a LA Metro station is three blocks away.

TMZ first reported the listing.
