(#20) It Follows
In It Follows, a sinister paranormal plague passes from person to person through intercourse, dooming the last in line with ghostly stalkers intent on catching and slaying them. At the beginning of the movie, Jay (Maika Monroe) is strapped into a wheelchair and pushed through an abandoned building by her one-night-stand (Jake Weary). Director David Robert Mitchell filmed the scene at the abandoned Packard Automotive Plant at 5815 Concord St. in Detroit, MI.
Previously a booming automotive headquarters, the building is now desolate and abandoned. Adventurous moviegoers should note that the Packard Plant is not open to the public and trying to enter is not legal.

(#2) Jaws
- Film
Amity Island isn't any more real than the gigantic great white that held its beaches hostage one summer in 1975. But fans can visit Sylvia State Beach at 180 Beach Road in Massachusetts where the first summer blockbuster was filmed.
Though damaged by erosion in the 1990s, the two-mile stretch of beach and ocean is rebuilt and ready for Jaws aficionados to bask on its sand or brave its waters.

(#12) The Amityville Horror
- Film
Ronald DeFeo Jr. took the lives of his entire family at a home in Amityville, Long Island, one year before the Lutz family purchased it in December 1975. The Lutz family claimed that odd occurrences plagued their residency, at 112 Ocean Ave., leading to a movie version of their story in 1979, along with sequels and remakes.
The home itself, abandoned by the Lutz family after only 28 days, still exists at the same location - with a changed house number; it's now 108 Ocean Ave. According to Gizmodo, the family that purchased the house in 1977 lived there for a decade didn't encounter any odd phenomena.
According to Zillow, the renovated home last sold for $605,000 in 2017. Over the years, two windows that apparently resembled eyes were removed.

(#4) The Silence of the Lambs
- Film
Known for its part in the terrifying climax of the Oscar-winning film The Silence of the Lambs, Buffalo Bill's plain Pennsylvania house stood in stark contrast to the horrors happening within it. The house still stands at 8 Circle St., Perryopolis, PA.
It sold for $195,000 in 2016 and looks nothing like the virulent mess it was in the movie. The restored Queen Anne private home, built in 1910, is plain but charming, and still serves as a backdrop for fan photos.

(#10) Psycho
- Film
The final resting place of Norman Bates's mother in Psycho was never real, erected only on a movie lot for filming in 1960. The house is a now a part of the Universal Studio Tour available to patrons of the movie company's Hollywood theme park.
Both the house and the Bates Motel exist only as facades on the movie lot.

(#15) The Ring
- Film
Featured in the cursed tape put together by Samara (Deveigh Chase) and figuring prominently in the investigation performed by Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts), the Moesko Island Lighthouse plays a crucial role in 2002's The Ring. Alas, Moesko Island is not real, so director Gore Verbinski settled for Yaquina Head Lighthouse in Newport, OR.
The 93-foot-tall tower, built in 1872, is Oregon's tallest lighthouse. The structure is open to the public.
