Beach side haunted house

Beach side haunted house

It’s the sort of house you might fantasize about. Three stories. A deck with an ocean view. A Laguna Beach address.

But like the house in “Amityville Horror” or umpteen other scary movies, it creeped Lori Duarte out.

She woke up screaming from nightmares. Saw things out of the corner of her eye. Heard strange noises.

“It was a pretty house,” Lori says, “but it didn’t feel that way; I would rather be in a shack.”

In November 2007, after a year and a half together, she and her husband decided to split up. And sell the house. It was on the market for the next seven months. There were no takers.

Whatever was in that house, Lori says, was keeping buyers away. She told her ex that there was a woman in town they could hire to chase away the spirits. “If you can get it to sell,” he told Lori, “do whatever the hell you want.”


Julie Belmont lives in Laguna Hills. She is an artist who works in oils and pastels and charcoal. She makes Victorian chokers. She knits scarves.

And, she says, she sees dead people.

Julie was 4 and living in Madrid when she woke one morning to find her aunt standing at the foot of her bed, wearing a gray dress and smiling kindly.  The woman told her niece she had come to say goodbye. Then she faded away.

“OK,” Julie says she remembers thinking. “I am awake.”

She went to her parents and told them what she saw. She says they didn’t flinch.

“Get your coat,” they told her.

The family went to a hospital where the aunt had been ill. The old woman passed away soon after they arrived.
