Bill List Todville Mansion has been circulating on the internet lately when its dark history with former owner, Bill List, scared the man who is leasing it today. The shadowed past of Bill List Todville Mansion is reportedly already a decades-old Seabrook murder. However, even decades of time can't erase the fear upon the man who was supposed to lease the mansion.

The Seabrook Villa by the sea in Texas is situated inside the quaint and small gated community on Galveston Bay. Bill List Todville Mansion is the property on Todville Road and despite its big structure, it unfortunately contains the dark past of Bill List.

Bill List Todville Mansion is where Bill List, a 57-year-old business tycoon with a record of sexually molesting teenage boys, lived. History reports that Bill List Todville Mansion was built by Bill himself. The 34,000-square-foot mansion was where a crime happened one night in October 1984. Bill List Todville Mansion is where, according to history, four teenage boys who Bill allegedly molested came at the house shot Bill to death with his own gun.

Bill List Todville Mansion was then divided into 18 lots, where 13 houses now stands. 514 Villa Drive is one of these houses and is currently listed for sale at $1.5 million or for lease at $5,900 a month. Built in 2006, the two-storey house contains four-bedrooms perfect for any family, who do not know its history.

According to KHOU-TV, a would-be tenant Nir Golan, recently signed a lease. However, as he told KHOU, he signed without knowing the Bill List Todville Mansion history. Now, he tells the news station that he wouldn't move into the mansion even if the owners paid him. 

Golan said, "A lot of people say there's shadows of children. People say that they wouldn't come to my house as a guest."

It is unknown whether 514 Villa Drive is the house in Bill List Todville Mansion where List was shot to death. However, Golan is adamant that it doesn't make any difference.

The neighborhood home owners' association's former vice president Kathaleen Moyer said it was unlikely that 514 Villa Drive is the exact place where List was murdered as it's close to the water. Bill List Todville Mansion at 3300 Todville Road leans toward the other end of the property.

Moyer said Thursday, "I do sympathize with the gentleman who leased the house, but this was decades ago. It's not like it's an existing home that someone got murdered in."

Moyer and her husband was said to have lived in the community for five years. They had to move in January this year for reasons not related to the history of Bill List Todville Mansion. Moyer added, "It's a wonderful place to live. I miss living there."

A Houston Chronicle article published in Nov. 18, 1985 states that Bill List Todville Mansion is a three-story mansion divided into two wings. It has an atrium in the center and a catwalk between the wings at the second level. There's also 40-foot swimming pool at the bottom of the atrium. Other rooms in Bill List Todville Mansion includes a ballroon, game roon, dining room, kitchen and master bedroom.

On the night List was shot to death, the young men living with him in the now famous Bill List Todville Mansion reportedly decided to shoot List as they were tired of his mistreatment towards them.

Elbert Ervin "Smiley" Homan was the one who pulled the trigger. He reportedly pleaded guilty to murder and sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Bill List Todville Mansion doesn't seem to be the common denominator in List's ill-luck. Apparently, his daughter, Deborah Thornton, was also killed in a pickax murder by Karla Faye Tucker in 1983.
