Ghostface Photobombs Real Estate Listing Making The Internet Scream Halloween Special #scream #halloween #realestate #realtor #ghostface
Welcome to our Halloween Special
What do you do when you have a listing in a neighborhood that isn’t getting a lot of
Traffic?
It’s easy, just scare potential buyers.
That is exactly what James Pyle, a real estate agent in Lansing Michigan did to get
His listing a little extra attention, and boy did it ever get attention.
James decided to put on his Halloween custom, the Ghostface costume from the horror movie
Scream, to be exact and have little fun with his listing photos.
So when he posted his listing photos in added a few that had a little extra kick to them.
Included in his listing photos were Ghostface carving a pumpkin in the kitchen, raking leaves
In the yard, walking through a bedroom door complete with knife and my personal favorite,
hiding behind the curtains in the living room.
So, did he get that extra attention he wanted, boy did he. James said listings in that area
Get around 100 or so views so he hoped the crazy photos Would help him get an extra
500 to 1000 views but
it did a little better than that.
Within four days he had over a million views on Zillow and when the Today show invited him
On the show it was estimated with all social media sources factored in, the listing
Surpassed 5 million hits.
Not everyone was thrilled that Ghostface photobombed his listing as feedback from one
Local agent advised him to be more professional and grow with “F” up.
The sellers however, how approved the photos before they were taken, were thrilled with
It and that her family had a really good time with it too.
James said he is enjoying his 2 minutes of fame. When asked why he did it, he said he needed to do
Something extra. There’s nothing Wrong with the neighborhood or area
Its just not one of those neighborhoods that everyone is dying
To get into
He said the pun was not intended but I will let you make the call.
