Halloween Gossip
Jessica Chastain tells CBS that the home she stayed in while filming "The Huntsman: Winter's War" may have been haunted. "I really think it was haunted. We were doing a lot of night scenes and I came home at like 3.30 in the morning and I was so tired, and I had everything blacked out, all the lights. I had the one chandelier on a little bit and as I started to take my clothes off to put my pyjamas on, the light started to dim. And I thought, 'Ok, I might be having a stroke'. This is what happens, the lights slowly start to go dim. And then every light in the room, even the bedside tables, slowly started to go on - swear to God. Like I was on some alien spaceship, all white and then (click) it went pitch black. I actually said, because I was so tired, ‘Ok I acknowledge you… I understand you are here and I don’t want to kick you out but I'm just very tired so please let me sleep'. And it never happened again."

Robin’s visits were a little spooky at first, but now I look forward to these little visits from my friend. “I go to bed with questions I want to ask Robin.

The LaLaurie Mansion in New Orleans used to belong to Madame LaLaurie, a well-known 19th century socialite and serial killer.

'Then it just disappears, and I was a little kid and I thought, 'OK, that's interesting,' and I looked over at the nanny and she's like this [freak out face]. 'Is that a ghost? Or just some weird floating jacket?''
Gary Busey tells TMZ he once had an encounter with a ghost. "I had a ghost one time come out of a big plate of soup I had. It was called a soup ghost.

Dear Fonseca
My family and other parents say I'm horrible for not allowing my two children to go trick or treating. My philosophy is simple. For 364 days every year we tell kids not to accept candy from strangers, but on Halloween we tell them it's okay. I don't agree with the logic and don't allow them to go trick-or-treating for their own safety. Everyone hates me for doing this. I'm just trying to protect my kids. I replace trick or treating with a candy scavenger hunt in the house. Am I wrong for canceling Halloween?
