Scott and Barbara Lloyd initially listed the house last summer for $300,000, but have since shaved $50,000 from the price.
The three-storey Victorian house in Layton was the second most-clicked home on real estate website Realtor.com.
But although the publicity has attracted curious visitors, Mr Lloyd said no serious buyers have come forward.
He told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "We're finally starting to see a little bit of motion."
The house is in a tiny village around an hour from Pittsburgh, and also only has one bathroom for its four bedrooms.
Erik Gunther, a senior editor on the real estate website, said: "Even though it's got notoriety, location still is a big deal.
The fact that a home gets a ton of publicity doesn't necessarily add up to a quick sale.
"Just because I want to gawk at something doesn't mean I want to buy it."
The foyer and dining room were featured in the film, starring Sir Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster, but the dungeon put where Buffalo Bill kept his victims was filmed on a soundstage.
Sir Anthony won an Oscar for his role as Dr Hannibal Lecter, a cannibalistic psychiatrist whose clues help rookie FBI agent Clarice Starling track down and kill Buffalo Bill. Foster also won an Oscar.
