Richard Pryor 'Fire' House | Country Star's Estate | HGTV 'Hunting Vintage' Home | 7 Amazing WOW! Houses

On a summer night in 1980, the comedian Richard Pryor was at the height of his fame — and high on crack cocaine. As the now-infamous tale goes, he poured cognac all over himself, lit his body on fire and jumped out the window to run down the street.

Few thought he would survive his injuries, but after a weeks-long recovery, he was back out on the road doing comedy shows — eventually cracking jokes about that fateful night.

The home where he was partying that night, at 17267 Parthenia St. in Northridge, California, is just one of the many amazing houses we saw for sale across the country this week.
