If anyone is interested in legal cases, and ghosts -
STAMBOVSKY v. ACKLEY (1991)
(169 AD 2d 254, 572 NYS 2d 672)
Stambovsky bought a home from Ackley (owner, and her realty - Ellis realtors) and was disappointed to find out later (after purchase) that the home had a phantasmal reputation (haunted). Stambovsky argued he should have been told in advance of such conditions and because he was not, Ackley had violated vendor/purchaser conditions of contract.
ONLY case I know where a COURT determined that a house is, as a matter of law, haunted.
It is, by the way, for anyone interested - located in the Village of Nyack, New York. The home is a Victorian style and is located on a river. May be a cheap buy today. I have no idea of what has become of this house - just the situation between 1977 and 1993.
The homes along the river are quite massive. The address is 1 LaVeta Place.
There is a book on the subject: Sir George, The Ghost of Nyack by Bill Merrill & Glenn Johnson (Deer Publishing, Beaverton, OR).

A more controversial story -
- occured at 112 Ocean Avenue, Amityville, New York in 1975. It instigated several lawsuits and many movies - and the house is still there although the address may or may not have been changed.
