"Thriller Villa" is a name given to the former home of singer Michael Jackson, located in Las Vegas, Nevada close to the strip. The Spanish Mediterranean-style house has four bedrooms, nine bathrooms and covers 27,259 square feet (2,532.4 m2). It was built in 1952 by theater developer Horst Schmidt.[1] Jackson lived there from 2007 until his death in 2009.[1] In 2022, the home was listed for sale for a asking price of $9.5 million.[1]
In late 2006, Michael returned to the United States after living in Bahrain for nearly a year. [2] He lived there with his 3 children. He moved to Vegas in an attempt to negotiate a contract for a residency on the strip.[3] The master bedroom included a sitting area and a mini-bar with a bathroom. The home also included a bar, a two-story chapel, courtyard, as well as a 2,000-square-foot (190 m2) guest house.[1] The home is now used for private events and gatherings.
