This House Listed for Sale in Detroit Looks Pretty Haunted

Detroit's Neighbors Wanted program is showing signs of success in turning around the city's vacant homes—some of which are more un-neighborly than others.

By all outside appearances, the house at 621 Clairmount Street would make a lovely Detroit home. It's a colonial, four-bedroom brick house just off Voigt Park near the Boston-Edison Historic District. At $19,500, it is yet another property priced for a difficult market marred by vacant homes.

Unfortunately, the House on Clairmount Street has a message for potential buyers.
