After it is finally demolished, the Amityville Horror House unleashes a new form of terror on the unsuspecting communities of North Amityville and its neighboring village. The two towns begin to experience an onslaught of disturbing phenomena.
Missing people, putrid fungal spores festering across lawns, shadows unmoored and strange orbs glittering in the night.
Now, an unlikely group of townspeople are forced to come together and face an evil nightmare that threatens to tear all of Long Island apart.

With his latest, Ottone breathes new life into the legendary Amityville house, uncovering fresh horrors ready to invade our nightmares once again. Amanda Headlee (Till We Become Monsters) says: “Ottone amplifies the lore of the Amityville house by unleashing the home’s insidious and vile entity on the two towns. Unrelenting and gritty, Amityville Awakens is a harrowing tale of evil battling against the strength of teenage unrequited love.”, and Michael Cisco (The Divinity Student, Black Brane) says: “Amityville Awakens realizes horrors that were languishing unnoticed in plain sight since 1977. It took a talent like Robert Ottone to set them loose. Emotionally grounded, and very much the real thing.”
