Stay at the ‘Scream’ house for $5 on Airbnb with Ghostface — if you dare
This stay will be a scream.
Stu Macher’s house chilled horror fans in the 1996 thriller “Scream,” and it’s now just $5 to rent on Airbnb for three nights only.
On Oct. 27, 29 and 31, the house will welcome up to four guests who will get the real “Scream” experience — hopefully sans death.
The home is set up with a “dedicated phone line” to reach Ghostface, and guests will get a virtual greeting from “Scream” actor David Arquette playing his role as Deputy Dewey at check-in.
The $2.8 million mansion with straight grain wood detailing is not in the fictional horror town of Woodsboro — in reality, it’s at the end of a lane in a 298-acre wedding venue in Tomales, California.
As guests approach the 4,900-square-foot mansion, a Ghostface-patterned stained glass window sets the mood.

AirbnbA more subtle stained glass window appears over the front door in the movie, but was removed after production. This spookier version was specially installed for this promotion, timed to the 25th anniversary of “Scream.”
Inside, a grand foyer leads to four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a library, three fireplaces and two wood stoves, according to Realtor.com.
Airbnb promises that the house has knife marks on the doors and the same harrowing three-car garage where Tatum Riley, played by Rose McGowan, is killed in the movie.

AirbnbAside from the fictional deaths of Tatum Riley and Kenny Jones, the house has seen two actual deaths — those of the original owners, Jack and Carolyn MacPhail. The couple died in 1991 shortly after the house was built, according to reports.
The house is crammed with ’90s nostalgia, including VHS tapes of the four “Scream” movies and ’90s snack favorites like Jiffy Pop, according to Airbnb.
AirbnbGuests will leave with “Scream” memorabilia including a DVD bundle, Woodsboro High gear and posters advertising the 2022 “Scream” remake, which will reportedly include Courteney Cox and David Arquette.
The booking will go live on Tuesday, Oct. 12.
Canadian model Heather Marks, known for her doll-like “elven” features, has put her East Village pad back on the market for $1.67 million — down from its original $1.74 million ask in 2019.
Located at 425 E. 13th St., it has 1,047 square feet, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a home office/convertible third bedroom along with a 150-square-foot terrace.
The loft boasts floor-to-ceiling windows, high ceilings, a washer/dryer, new hardwood floors and lots of storage space.
There’s also an open chef’s kitchen that flows into a living/entertaining area.
The main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom.
The eight-story building, launched in 2008, comes with a 50-foot rooftop pool, cabanas and outdoor barbecues, along with a gym, doorman, concierge and live-in super.
The monthly maintenance fee is a relatively high $1,934. Past residents include Olympic snowboarder Shaun White, and “Boardwalk Empire” actress Kelly Macdonald.
Marks, who is moving to Los Angeles, bought her downtown digs in 2008 for $1.37 million.
The listing brokers are Jared Barnett and Augusto Bittencourt of Compass.
Forget Miami and Palm Beach! Activist investor Gregg Hymowitz, known for his mega-deals with hedge funders like Bill Ackman and Daniel Loeb, and his wife Marcella bought some land from Bruce Willis to build a house in Parrot Cay, a 1,000-acre private island and resort in Turks and Caicos.
The $6 million transaction is for five oceanfront acres in an exclusive development with a COMO hotel, owned by Singaporean hotelier Christina Ong.
The development includes private estates with owners like Keith Richards and Donna Karan — both of whom have opted to put their homes up for rent through the COMO rental program.
Willis was asking $6.9 million for the land, which was part of a larger compound that he sold in 2019 for $27 million.
That property, which had been asking $33 million, included a five-bedroom home and two guest houses — along with a pirate ship playground, four pools and a beachfront yoga pavilion.
It’s where Willis married Emma Heming in 2009 and where the couple renewed their vows in 2019. Hymowitz, we hear, plans to build a traditional compound to fit in with the ‘hood — lots of dark wood and Asian, “Bali-style” influences.
Hymowitz’s planned compound will feature a five-bedroom home and some guest homes for his brood, which include six children ranging in age from 27 to 15 months.
There are no cars on the island, just golf carts — and it’s just a 3½-hour flight, plus a brief boat ride away from Manhattan.
Sources close to Hymowitz say the financier finds the laid-back private island lifestyle vibe far more appealing than the Miami/Palm Beach circuit.
The listing brokers for the oceanfront lot were Sotheby’s Nina Siegenthaler and Joe Zahm.
You’ll have no troubling turning on this faucet.
A nude Adam in the Garden of Eden is muraled on the walls of this Wisconsin kitchen — and the 3D art uses a working faucet in place of his manhood.
“I introduced themes and images of ‘stories’ growing up and mixed them with the beauty and color of nature and the human form to create a kaleidoscope of happiness, humanity and life,” the artist Jeff Seymour told Jam Press.
The kitchen also has a rounded sunflower headboard recycled into a kitchen counter, a butcher block from a church renovation and a bowling alley used as the bar. Wood and metal pieces from a bin during the building’s construction are used throughout.
“I love this! It’s so fun and colourful! That painting over the sink cracked me up! I’d keep it as is and have everybody over haha!” one person commented when pictures were posted on social media.
The rest of the 2,200-square-foot space is just as colorful, painted with trees, flowers and leaves.
“The walls are 3D plastered and painted. The lightweight concrete floors are hand stamped with leaf shapes hand-cut from the cabinet boxes for my unit and then stained. They intend to represent trees, leaves and reflections in a pattern that suggests ornate carpet,” said Seymour.
The dining room has a giant sunflower with green, blue, red and yellow-painted floors. The office has trees on the wall and a blue cloudy sky ceiling mural.
One of the two bedrooms has an ocean-themed mural with fish and plants, while the other has boldly colored stripes and fruit painted on the ceiling.
There are two-and-a-half bathrooms, one of which has a second, more modest Adam mural with a sunflower covering, photos show.
The artist, Jeff Seymour, is an artist and developer. He developed the building in 2008 as an artist collective, but this, his personal condo, is one of the only units with his murals.
It became a local art crawl destination, according to Waukesha art crawl pamphlets.
“I built these condos in 2008 to help anchor artists/entrepreneurs… Ownership allows these artists to share in the successes they create by getting involved in the positive change they often incite,” said Seymour.
Jam Press/JT SeymourIt seems the seller is betting his murals add value to the condo, which is asking $183 per square foot. In the nine-unit building, two other condos have sold in the past two years, going for between $129 and $177 per square foot.
“Rare to find a home and office as entertaining to look at and experience as it is a great place to entertain,” says the listing, which describes the home as “if Van Gogh and Dr. Seuss had a treehouse.”
The first floor is a commercial space, which can be used as an office, store or studio. It has two decks, a one-car garage, an outdoor parking space. The exterior has red brick walls with green and red tiles.
“My interior design strives to counter the building density and hard surfaces of Downtown living which I really enjoy,” Jeff told Jam Press.
Jeff Scrima with Tenderland Real Estate LLC has the listing.
It’s $2.2 million for Dallas Cowboys No. 22’s old digs.
The NFL’s all-time leading rusher, Emmitt Smith, listed his 10,800-square-foot Dallas mansion Monday — complete with an NFL-themed billiards room.
“I built this home in 1995 with the idea of starting a family here one day,” the NFL Hall of Famer told The Post. The father of three is selling it amid his divorce from longtime wife Patricia Southall.
“Over the years, it has been the perfect place to gather and host friends and family,” added Smith.
The buyer will even get a dinner with Smith, said a Douglas Elliman representative.
The former Cowboy’s mansion has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, four half-bathrooms, two offices, a 22-seat dining room and two living rooms.
The NFL-themed billiards room — decked out with a lighted tray ceiling, an oculus window and carpeting emblazoned with the league logo — is just one of the football star’s remaining marks on the home, which is filled with sports jerseys and other paraphernalia, pictures show.
The billiards room leads to an 11-seat projector-based media room with red-velvet chairs and a cloud-filled blue-sky mural painted on the ceiling.

“I’m excited for the next owner to continue the tradition by creating their own memories here,” Smith told The Post. He and his wife announced their separation in July 2020, saying they would “continue to move forward with love and compassion for one another, as co-parents and friends.”

The latest and greatest slice of the city, Manhattan West, is officially open for business with a private kick-off party happening tonight.
“Manhattan West, a project decades in the making, weaves together the diverse communities of Manhattan’s West Side and provides New Yorkers with a tremendous amount of new experiences, restaurants, cultural programming, public space, arts and entertainment,” Laura Montross, Brookfield’s director of communications, told The Post.
The mega-project’s developer, Brookfield, bought its first parcel for the project in 1985 and acquired the remainder over the next 19 years while the 2005 Hudson Yards rezoning allowed the development to go forward.
Tonight’s shindig will include bites of food and cocktails from Manhattan West’s many restaurants as well as music by Questlove and The Roots. The 7.5 million-square-foot, amenity-stuffed oasis includes 200,000 square feet of food haunts, public art and experiential retail set around 2.5 acres of open space.
The sprawling 8-acre city-within-a-city has also created critical pedestrian connectivity between Madison Square Garden, Penn Station, the new Moynihan Train Hall, the other towers of Hudson Yards and the overhead High Line that also links visitors to Chelsea and the Meatpacking District.
“The guests are the people who made this project possible from the local community, real estate industry, restaurants, artists, tenants and investors,” Montross said.
Here’s what’s inside:
Framed by two glass walled towers — the now open 67-story office building at One Manhattan West and the still-under-construction Two Manhattan West — development is located between Ninth and Tenth avenues and West 30th and 33rd streets.
One Manhattan, a 2.1 million-square-foot tower located on the north side of the walkway, is already home to Accenture, EY, the law firms Skadden and McKool Smith plus the global investment firm Pharo and the NHL — which will also have a store and a hand in running the seasonal skating rink.
Its western side is adjacent to a 1913-era, 13-story boutique office building, the Lofts, which houses the workplace provider Spaces and other small companies. The 202,000-square-foot building has a block of 100,000 square feet available on the higher floors that includes a private penthouse terrace and its own entrance with rent upon request.
Further west, the now-open luxury boutique Pendry hotel on West 33rd Street is the brainchild of Alan Fuerstman and son Michael who are the visionaries behind the Montage Hotels & Resorts, which includes the Pendry brand.
This, their first city hotel, brings a calming cream and brown palette to the area, plus fireplaces, an intimate cocktail lounge and private whiskey bar terrace. Many of its 880-square-foot multi-room suites are already spoken for on the weekends, even with a tab running as much as $2,600 per night on its upper floors.
The south side of the plaza includes the 1.75 million-square-foot Two Manhattan where the law firm Cravath Swaine & Moore will occupy 481,000 square feet as the anchor tenant. The availabilities include floors 6 through 29, plus 38 through 58.
“These are incredibly attractive blocks [of space],” said Montross of the building that will open in 2023. “We have serious interest in excess of 1.5 million square feet.” Asking rents are available upon request.
To its west are the adjacent luxury rentals of The Eugene — also known as 3 Manhattan West — which include 675 market-rate and 159 affordable units inside a contemporary, 62-story tower with interiors by Roman and Williams.
Brookfield has included here a staggering 55,000 square feet of amenities including billiards, a gaming arcade, a golf simulator, LA PALESTRA Wellness & Fitness Center, a roof deck with a piano and poker lounge, a children’s playroom, a rock-climbing wall and a regulation-sized basketball court — after all, it is just two blocks from the Knicks’ home base at Madison Square Garden.
The dozen available units include the cheapest studio that will set you back $4,120 per month while a one-bedroom corner goes for $6,415 per month and a corner two-bedroom with two baths can be had for $7,930 per month. Rents vary depending on the flexible number of months that are leased
The Tenth Avenue facing building, known as 5 Manhattan West, has newly angled glass walls and former industrial turned office floorplates of 100,000 square feet — some of the largest in the city — with tech tenants such as Amazon.
This building has both outdoor and indoor passages (and an elevator) that snake around and through a new Whole Foods onto Tenth Avenue plus dining terraces that will, by early 2023, link directly onto a new spur of the High Line at West 31st Street.
“The land slopes down from Ninth Avenue to the Hudson River but the second floor of Five Manhattan West exactly matches the height of the High Line,” Montross explained of its fortunate connectivity.
The architects of SOM — who designed the master plan for Manhattan West along with all the new buildings — set back the tall towers and brought them down to earth by utilizing undulating and curving terraces along with plenty of street retailers, restaurants and outdoor seating.
In the winter, the large central circle will be taken over by a regulation ice rink that will be operated by Brookfield with its office and retail tenant, the National Hockey League.
For now, a very high scaffold decorated with lighted pouffes of silk fabric protects walkers and viewers of the giant lemons and flowers of Citrovia, an art installation that is scheduled to last another year or more. Although the scaffold set between the two towers is also destined for the recycling bin, Brookfield may have to rethink and replace it with something permanent as it now protects diners and strollers from sun, rain and the coming snow.
Montross says, “The retailers were chosen with everyday needs plus health and wellness in mind.”
The stores range from the large Peloton store and studio where its live classes are filmed; to the natural wellness solutions from Therabody; the wrinkle wreckers of Peachy; OPR Eyewear; the casual clothes of Public Rec; the family-owned men’s clothing of Rothman’s NYC; the curated offerings of New Stand plus the newest incarnation of the NHL Store.
Three coffee outlets include the Black Fox on West 33rd Street, Bluestone Lane in the base of the Eugene on West 31st Street and a Starbucks with a pickup window along the main plaza walkway.
Restaurants are plentiful and designed to make your mouth water while not hijacking your wallet. In the base of Five Manhattan West, the 40,000-square-foot Citizens food hall by Sam Nazarian’s C3 will include grab-and-go plus pastries, cocktails and two full-service restaurants: the Asian-inspired Katsuya by chef Katsuya Uechi and a Mediterranean concept with “Spanish flare” dubbed Casa Dani from chef Dani Garcia.
Quality Branded will open another Mediterranean café, Zou Zou’s, on the northwest corner of the main plaza which is connected to the base of the Pendry hotel. Opening soon, it will include ground level dining and an indoor-outdoor bar on a fourth floor terrace overlooking the plaza.
Zou Zou’s will open a fourth-floor indoor-outdoor bar above.
Zou Zou’s is also supplying all the food at the Pendry with its 23rd floor hosting another bar that will open in the spring.
Next door on the plaza, chef Richard Kuo’s Asian-inspired Hidden Leaf has its own bar on the plaza with another bar and restaurant on the second floor.
To the east of Hidden Leaf is the entrance to the 10,000-square-foot Midnight Theater, a 160-seat venue set on the second floor that will present dinner along with a rotation of comedy, magic, music and theatrical programs.
Danny Meyer’s Union Hospitality Group holds down the southwest corner of the plaza with Daily Provisions which opens on Wednesday for healthy everyday fare and a contemporary Italian menu at Ci Siamo, which also has an upper-floor dining terrace.
“We are incredibly proud to introduce New Yorkers to Manhattan West and contribute to this city’s boundless vibrancy,” Montross said.
