"The Silence of the Lambs" won five Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. Anthony Hopkins played Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a crazed, cannibalistic psychiatrist whose macabre clues help Clarice Starling, the rookie FBI agent played by Jodie Foster, track down and kill Buffalo Bill in his home.

The house used in the movie “The Silence of the Lambs“ is a four-bedroom, one bathroom Victorian house set on a 1.76-acre lot in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, has hit the market for the cool price of $300,000.

In an interview with the Pittsburgh Tribune Review, homeowners Scott and Barbara Lloyd explain that the foyer and dining room were utilized during the 1990 Lambs shoot. "They were looking for a home in which you entered the front door and had a straight line through... They wanted it to look like a spider web, with Buffalo Bill drawing Jodie Foster into the foyer, into the kitchen, then into the basement."
