Nearly $4 million castle complete with replica of Batman's office for sale in Pine Township
A house unlike any other you've likely seen is for sale in Pine Township. Part of the house looks like a set straight out of the 1960s series Batman and Robin.
It's all there, from the red bat phone to the button under a Shakespeare bust to moving bookcases.
The house is in Pine Township, about 20 miles north of Pittsburgh, which has been used in Batman movies. It's for sale, with the listing price just under $4 million.
Outside, it sits on 7 acres, where among other things, you'll find a saltwater resort-style pool. Inside, you'll find everything from an elaborate movie room to a private chapel to a genuine 17th-century fireplace mantle, along with every kind of imaginable luxury living space.

Who would build something like this? KDKA-TV asked listing realtor Andrew Klima.
"The gentleman who built this place is into the fanciful, whimsical castle aesthetic," Klima said.
The owners moved, and now this incredibly unique residence is waiting for its next occupant, where they'll find 10 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms and all the other rooms that cover 23,500 square feet. Klima has sold multi-million dollar properties in New York City and is now in Pittsburgh as the lister of this property.
As for a potential buyer, Klima says, "I think it's someone who really appreciates this aesthetic, or maybe it's an out-of-towner like a guy like Mark Cuban who is familiar with Pittsburgh and just has a little extra money."
Back outside, just as spectacular as the inside, there is astroturf all around the pool area, so no need to cut grass, and the double-gated entrance sits at the end of a private cul-de-sac.
If you're interested in buying the house and you have the almost $4 million to cover the cost, you'd better act quickly because it's been listed for less than a week, and they've already had several showings. And the property taxes for this monstrosity? More than $52,000 per year.

Sick of cable? This is the one live TV streaming service I'd use to cut the cord
I cut the cord years ago. But this year, I finally tested all of the best live TV streaming services for Tom's Guide, so I could definitively say which one was the best, and possibly even ditch my current service: YouTube TV. I've been a loyal YouTube TV customer for close to five years now. It's been far superior to cable, but I will admit, I wasn't sure it was better than the other live TV services. It's tough to change, though, so I wasn't in a rush to leave. But I had to test and review all six of the current live TV streaming services, and if I found a better option, I was going to leave YouTube TV. As I started reviewing all six services, I pretty quickly eliminated three of them. DirecTV has a ton of channels, but its pricing veers close to cable territory, and I didn't love the user interface. Philo simply lacks enough channels to be worth it, even at just $28 a month. Fubo offers a ton of channels, but it misses out on a lot of the most popular ones and it has hidden fees thanks to regional sports networks (RSNs). So that left me with three options: Sling TV, which has been our top live TV streaming service for a while, Hulu with Live TV, and, of course, YouTube TV. Each had things going for them. Sling TV costs just $45.99 a month for its base plan and even its most expensive plan tops out at just $65.99. That's significantly less than YouTube TV and Hulu with Live TV, which both cost $82.99. Hulu with Live TV makes that higher price point easier to swallow, though, because it includes the streaming services Hulu, Disney Plus and ESPN Plus (all with ads) in your subscription for free. That's a $16.99 bundle normally, so we're talking about serious value. Of course, YouTube TV is no slouch. Its user interface is clean and easy to use, and it offers features like multiview and catching up with key plays. If you're a football fan, it'll even give you a discount on NFL Sunday Ticket and integrate it into your YouTube TV app. Ultimately, I'm sticking with YouTube TV and it's still the live TV streaming service I'd recommend to most people. But it was very close. YouTube TV is the live TV streaming service I recommend for most people. It features most of the popular channels you want, has a great user interface that's easy to use, and includes features like unlimited cloud DVR, three simultaneous streams, multiview, catching up with key plays and more. It's not perfect, but it's still the live TV streaming service to beat. Try it now for 21 days! Sling TV's big problem is that, while it's a great budget live TV streaming service, it can't fully replicate what you get from the full-flavored live TV services. Missing out on local channels (you can't get CBS in any market) was essentially a dealbreaker, and it didn't help that you don't get quite a few popular channels even in its highest tier plan. The lack of unlimited cloud DVR wasn't great either, but at least that's fixable by paying $5 extra a month. Hulu with Live TV is better than Sling. It has the popular channels I want (save AMC), includes unlimited cloud DVR and gives you the Disney Bundle, a value that is no joke. But it's limited to just two streams, and the user interface is not conducive to live TV viewing, even though for streaming on-demand content, it's perfectly fine. In the end, I still found YouTube TV to be the best overall live TV experience. It's not perfect — it's not as good a value as Hulu with Live TV, and it misses out on a few popular channels. But overall, it gives you all the features you'd expect from a live TV service and more and it's enjoyable to use. In the end, that's what matters the most to me, and that's why YouTube TV remains my pick for the one live TV streaming service I'd use to cut the cord. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022, and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made. Here's what he's been watching lately:

'Ghost Adventures' Star Aaron Goodwin Gets Emotional Confronting Estranged Wife as She Is Sentenced for Conspiring to Murder Him
Aaron Goodwin confronted his estranged wife Victoria Goodwin during her sentencing on June 5 He told the judge he "will never feel safe" and he fears for his life after finding out that his estranged wife conspired to have him killed Victoria was sentenced to a minimum of 36 months and a maximum of 90 months in prison after taking a plea deal in AprilAaron Goodwin confronted his estranged wife Victoria Goodwin for conspiring to murder him. The Ghost Adventures star, 49, read a statement in court as Victoria was sentenced on Thursday, June 5, detailing how he felt when he found out that she had been plotting his murder and the subsequent fear he had for his safety. 'For seven years I thought I was in [the] most loving relationship of marriage with my best friend, someone I trusted [with my] whole heart and laughed with every day. Someone who made me feel like I was so — like I was her one and only,' an emotional Goodwin told the judge, per Court TV. "Now, discovering she put a hit out to kill me more than once, got blackmailed and spent almost all our savings to keep it quiet … This has led me to fear [for] my life,' he continued, through tears. 'I've hired armed security for weeks. Not knowing [whether] it was over or not.' Aaron, who filed for divorce from Victoria in March, told the judge that ever since he found out about the plot, he has been 'looking over' his shoulder and going through therapy to understand everything that has happened. He then described the feeling as a 'heartbreak no one should go through in life," stating, "The fact that this person did all this to me with no worry, no care or love in her heart for me, I will never feel the same." "I will never feel safe or be the same because of what she did. Especially when she gets out one day," Aaron added. 'Whether she [gets] minimum or maximum time, I still won't feel safe whenever she's released. I feel like this deserves prison time." Victoria was later sentenced to a minimum of 36 months and a maximum of 90 months in prison, according to KVVU-TV. She previously accepted a plea deal in April, pleading guilty to one felony count of conspiracy to commit murder. Victoria was initially taken into custody on March 6 on charges of soliciting to commit murder and conspiring to commit murder. She allegedly conspired with convicted murderer Grant Amato, with whom she began a relationship in March 2024, after seeing him in the Paramount+ true crime docuseries, Ctrl + Alt + Desire, per a police report.

After Victoria and Amato met, she allegedly conspired to kill Aaron with her new lover's help — allegedly going as far as discussing payments for his murder. Their alleged plans were discovered when a phone Amato had been communicating with Victoria on was confiscated by prison security guards. Aaron and Victoria had been married since August 2022. Following the news of Victoria's alleged murder-for-hire plan, Aaron filed for divorce in a complaint that read, "There is no possibility of reconciliation between husband and wife.' Aaron later thanked his fans for their continued support in a March 22 Instagram post. "Thank you everyone for all the love and support through this emotionally trying time. It has really helped a lot and I appreciate you all,' he wrote. Read the original article on People
