In a video prank published Thursday to promote the upcoming Paranormal Activity movie, a realtor hosts an open house to unsuspecting prospective buyers in San Diego, California.
What they didn’t know was that the house was the original location of the first Paranormal Activity released in 2007.
One woman asks the realtor, “Why are they moving?”
“You know what,” the realtor responds, “they didn’t say. They just decided to up and move suddenly.”
As the house-hunters tour the 2,314-square-foot home, signs of a demonic presence begin to reveal themselves.

The chandelier shakes, the microwave flashes and a painting inexplicably falls off the wall.
Eventually, the classic shattered mirror haunted house gag takes things over the top and an all-out supernatural assault sends the potential buyers shrieking and running out the door.
The film franchise’s creator Oren Peli joked in a tweet that he couldn’t be blamed for selling his house, especially with all the eerie action.
But the house is not really for sale: It was put on the market this January and purchased a month later for $760,000.
