Well, no one knows for sure, but many people believe in them. On the other hand - people who don't believe in the supernatural are very rigid in their views.
They refuse to accept any idea of their existence. There is no in-between. For most of us, living or staying in a haunted house is far from ideal — and some of us don't believe such a thing exists at all.
However, a surprising amount of celebrities in Hollywood are completely open to the presence of the supernatural and are not hesitant to discuss it. Celebrities have been sharing their ghost experiences for years, and some have even made a TV show out of it (like Demi Lovato).
Vanessa Hudgens recently said that she believes she can speak with the spirit world — and that's only touching the surface of what celebrities have said about their encounters with the other side over the years. Whether you believe in the supernatural or not, hearing our favorite celebrities tell their ghost stories is entertaining.
They even believe they're interacting with other famous people in some circumstances (though they died long ago). Check out this list of celebrities who claim to have experienced a supernatural experience.
Celebs can see ghosts?
Vanessa Hudgens
Vanessa Hudgens revealed she had "accepted the reality that I see things and hear things" during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show in April 2022, even confessing that she uses a spirit box to interact with the otherworldly.
"I kind of shut it down for a while because it's scary," she said. "The unknown is scary. But recently I was like, 'No, this is a gift and something that I have the ability to do, so I'm going to lean into it.'"
Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato is so certain ghosts exist that she has her own Peacock show about interacting with them - Unidentified With Demi Lovato.
Lily Collins
Lily Collins, who played Ted Bundy's ex-girlfriend in the film Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile, claimed she was visited by the ghosts of Ted's victims.
"I would go downstairs and have a cup of tea, trying to figure out why I had woken up again," she told The Guardian. "I started being woken up by flashes of images, like the aftermath of a struggle. I didn't feel scared — I felt supported. I felt like people were saying, 'We're here listening. We're here to support. Thank you for telling the story.'"
Octavia Spencer
Octavia Spencer said that she feels her home is haunted by a fellow actor during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in December 2021.
"I grew up watching Westerns and I bought this house, and it was owned by a guy who did Westerns, so I must have been a fan of his," she said. "I think he is my protector. I love him because he kind of sorts out the bad people who shouldn't be there. He runs them out."
Kristen Stewart
As Kristen Stewart told Vanity Fair in 2019, she believes in spirits and tries to interact with them.
"If I'm in a weird, small town making a movie, and I'm in a strange apartment, I will literally be like, 'No, please, I cannot deal. Anyone else, but it cannot be me.'
Who knows what ghosts are, but there is an energy that I'm really sensitive to. Not just with ghosts, but with people. People stain rooms all the time."
Keanu Reeves
Keanu Reeves told Jimmy Kimmel in 2014 that he had encountered a ghost when he was a child.
"I was living in New Jersey when I saw and felt this ghost," he said. "I remember just staring at this suit, which had no body or legs in it as it came into the room before disappearing.
It was a double-breasted suit in white, and I looked at my nanny, who was just as shocked as me. I just couldn't get back to sleep afterward, and I still see the figure in my dreams."
Helena Bonham Carter
Princess Margaret may not have been alive when Helena Bonham Carter portrayed her in The Crown, but the actress claims she was able to contact her through a psychic medium.
"She said, apparently, she was glad it was me. She said, 'You're better than the other actress' they were thinking of," she told The Guardian.
"They will not admit who it was. It was me and somebody else. That made me think maybe she is here because that is a classic Margaret thing to say.
She was really good at complimenting you and putting you down at the same time."
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga not only believes in ghosts, but she also believes they assist her in writing music, notably "Born This Way," which she credits to the late designer Alexander McQueen.
"I think he planned the whole thing," she told Harper's Bazaar UK. "Right after he died [in 2010], I wrote 'Born This Way.' I think he's up in heaven with fashion strings in his hands, marionetting away, planning this whole thing."
Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner told Vogue that she believes she has seen spirits at her mother Kris Jenner's house — albeit no word on how Kris Jenner feels about it!
"In the house my mom lives in, Kylie and I would always hear footsteps on the roof while no one was home," Kendall said. "Kylie's shower used to turn on all the time, and we never knew why. So yeah, I'm convinced it was a ghost."
Kesha
Kesha has claimed to believe in the otherworldly, and she even revealed to have had her own exorcism in an interview with Rolling Stone.
"I know it sounds like the most ridiculous story, but I went to my healer … and she told me that because of my job, I exude energy," she said.
Gigi Hadid
According to Vogue, Gigi Hadid believes her childhood house is haunted, and she and her sister Bella would even serve ghost tea.
"When we were kids, we lived in this really old house, and I was given the attic as my room," she said. "We used to hear this weird sound in the closet, and then we asked my dad, and he said this old lady used to live in the house."
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus claims she was haunted in a London apartment she stayed in, with the shower being a particularly active hotspot.
According to Miley, the temperature in the room once got hot on its own while Noah was in there, and she once saw "a little boy sitting on the sink watching me take a shower so I felt really freaked out."
Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande started experiencing negative sensations after visiting Stull Cemetery in Kansas.
"I felt this sick, overwhelming feeling of negativity over the whole car and we smelled sulfur, which is the sign of a demon, and there was a fly in the car randomly, which is another sign of a demon," she told Complex.
Matthew McConaughey
Matthew McConaughey told ScreenSlam in 2015 that the ghost of a woman named Madame Blu haunted him.
He stated, ""She wasn't that happy. It didn't seem like she was going to be much fun to hang around or have in my house, so I went ahead and stood my ground. I opened the door and said, 'You can move around all you want, but I'm not going anywhere.'"
Emma Stone
Emma Stone's ghost isn't just any ghost - it's her grandfather, whom she never got to meet when he was alive, as she revealed to David Letterman in 2014.
She expressed herself."There's a long family history with quarters. My grandfather leaves quarters. It's him. It's absolutely him."
Chloë Sevigny
Chloe Sevigny told Entertainment Weekly that she felt like spirits were present when she spent the night at Lizzie Borden's house in Massachusetts.
"I kept hearing all these weird moaning and groaning noises, but there wasn't anybody else in the house," she recalled. "It was terrifying. It was pretty early, and [my then-boyfriend] was like, 'I have to leave.'"
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson not only believes in spiritual contacts, but she also claims to be able to converse with spirits, according to her appearance on the Chatty Man show.
"I believe in energy," she said. "I believe our brains can manifest into visual things. When you see something, you are supposed to tell the energy what year it is and that they don't belong there."
