The ol' Creel House from Stranger Things Season 4 has hit the market for a cool $1.5 million.

The site of Vecna's lair in Hawkins and previous home of Victor and Virginia Creel and their doomed kidlets, the house is one of the most important locations in the Netflix series' fourth season. The real house is located at 906 East 2nd Avenue in Rome, Georgia, about an hour and a half from the city of Atlanta.

Built in 1882 by solicitor and attorney Colonel Hamilton Yancey, the over 5,000-square-foot house has previously been a bed and breakfast known as Claremont House, as the listing by Toles, Temple, and Wright details.

The Victorian-style house sold in 2019 for $350,000, according to Zillow. It has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, eight fireplaces, a guest house with two bedrooms and a bathroom, over an acre of land, and that all-important walk-up attic beneath that mansard roof. The whole house has been renovated, except the listing describes the attic as "more accurately described as an unfinished third floor."

In case you're wondering, real estate agents TTW are well aware of the fandom behind such a property.

"Don't be surprised if you find some residual demogorgons skulking about the property. In the event that things get too strange and even go awry, a funeral home is located nearby," the listing reads. "Time is of the essence. So if you’re thinking about running up that hill to make the deal to become the next owners of this magnificent dwelling, don’t let the grandfather clock chime even once."

Back in June, Netflix told Mashable the Stranger Things production team had gone hunting for a creepy-looking building for the Creel House, which needed to feature vertical architecture and (importantly for the story) a third-floor attic. Production designer Chris Trujillo saw in this house vibes akin to the Bates House from Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 horror classic Psycho, the streaming service said. The owners, who had only just bought the house months before Netflix got in touch, were planning to renovate, so the locations team were able to tailor the house for the exterior shots, boarding up windows and distressing the outside.

Plus the house is located less than five miles from Berry College, which Netflix used to film the scenes at the fictional Pennhurst Mental Hospital where Nancy and Robin visit Victor Creel.

We've delved into the Creel House even further, if you loved it as much as we did.
