I have seen some pretty scary things in my life - like my mother-in-law without makeup (just kidding). Since it’s almost Halloween, and nearly everyone has at least one ghost story they like to tell this time of year, I'd like to share the stories of 10 celebrities who have had ghostly encounters. Bring a flashlight because it's about to get spooky in here!

Taylor Momsen

This actress and musician currently stars on 'Gossip Girls', was Cindy Lou Who in the live action feature 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas', and apparently has an obsession with the macabre. Taylor Momsen had an elderly neighbor died, so she went into the woman's house to do some ghost-hunting. She claims to have snapped two photos: One of a disembodied hand on a typewriter, and another of the woman's whole body visible in a window.

Patrick Stewart

Patrick Stewart (‘Star Trek,’ ‘X-Men’) claims to have seen a ghost onstage while performing at the Haymarket Theatre in London. He and co-star Ian McKellen (‘Lord of the Rings,’ ‘X-Men’) later found out that a long-dead actor by the name of John Baldwin Buckstone supposedly inhabits the building. We had Professor X and Gandalf the Grey in the same theater and we couldn't catch the ghost?

Alyson Hannigan

She played a witch on the long running television show “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” so it’s no surprise that Alyson claims that a ghost lives with her, her husband, Alexis Denisof—who played a rogue demon hunter on the Buffy spinoff ‘Angel’—and their daughter.
