???? HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE LIVED IN A REAL HAUNTED HOUSE?<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

About one-fourth of Americans (24%) believe they\u2019ve lived in a real haunted house, down from the 44% who said the same in 2021, when people spent more time at home.<\/p>\n

In this monster of a market, buyers are willing to overlook just about anything to own a home, including a few ghosts.<\/p>\n

About 58% of home buyers say they\u2019d consider purchasing a haunted home<\/strong>, according to our new survey of 1,000 Americans. In fact, nearly one-fourth of Americans (24%) believe they\u2019ve already lived in a real haunted house.<\/p>\n

Today, 69% of Americans believe in the paranormal <\/strong>\u2014 down from 76% in 2021 and 70% in 2020. Although Americans\u2019 faith in the supernatural is waning, believers\u2019 conviction stems from firsthand experience.<\/p>\n

About 60% of respondents say they\u2019ve personally experienced a supernatural event, with more than 1 in 4 people (28%) saying they\u2019ve seen a ghost <\/strong>and 1 in 7 people (14%) saying they\u2019ve seen a UFO.<\/p>\n

However, about 1 in 4 respondents (26%) say they\u2019ve experienced paranormal activity less often in the past year. It\u2019s possible that as Americans return to pre-pandemic activities, they aren\u2019t as well-positioned to observe mysterious occurrences in their homes.<\/p>\n

As Americans spend less time at home in 2022, fewer people believe they\u2019ve lived in a haunted house. Among those who have not<\/em> shared a house with ghosts, however, two-thirds (67%) believe it\u2019s possible for a home to be haunted<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Read on to discover how Americans\u2019 beliefs in the supernatural have changed and how that affects their home-buying preferences in a still-competitive market.<\/p>\n
