If I could come up with that kind of money I would be all over that. Hope some person who does not know the man, buys it and does some stupid stuff with. That would suck.

I can't forget that movie, very terrifying even with less special effects. Property in Maui surely cost a lot because of its geographic location and the fact that they have amazing beach.

Now this is a very cool news. Own a piece of history to whoever owns this Maui beach house. The house should command a good price on the market.
