Actor NICOLAS CAGE's home in New Orleans, Louisiana has him so spooked he refuses to sleep there, despite paying nearly $3.5 million (GBP1.9 million) for the estate.
Cage bought the legendary LaLaurie Mansion last year (07) - reportedly the most haunted home in the historic city, constructed during the 1830s.
He says, "(It's) in the Vieux Carre - which is called the French Quarter. It's a very notorious house, it's a very famous house - meaning it's allegedly the most severely haunted house in the United States of America... that's what they tell me. So at any given moment, I have five or six ghosts surrounding the house, all looking up at this haunted temple, and I'm in there.
"We'll (my family) come over and have dinner there but nobody sleeps there. I will sleep there, I will at some point - but I'll be alone when it happens... I try not to have a narrow mind about things."
But the actor - who was aware of the legend before making the purchase - insists he's respectful of his haunting guests.
He adds: "(I've gotten) five or six requests from parapsychologists' groups to come into the house, and I won't let them in - because of respect. If there's something in there, I don't want them being exploited."

Youtube video here of The LaLaurie Mansion.  Audio is awful.  Story told by Matthew Yaddoshi of Haunted History Tours, New Orleans, August 2005.

I turned it off at 32 seconds.  My nose started to tingle and I got goosebumps on arm!  :shock:  Hehe...

I've seen ghosts!  I'll bet there are spirits, spooks & spectors in there!

Here's a very graphic YouTube video on LaLaurie Mansion here.  YIKES!

I'll bet Mr. Cage bought it for it's negative energy and for rituals.  JMO! Yeah.. I know he said he hasn't slept there.  :shock:

Oh yeah... I forgot to add this.... anyone here into really really really creepy houses and stuff like that?  Check out Quinta da Regaleria located in Portugal.  You may already know of it, of course, but it's LOADED with really strange, spooky stuff/symbols, including an initiation well!  Oh mommy..... !!!  :shock:

Thanks for the video link Sily. The history of that house is very gruesome and I can see why it is haunted. It amazes me how some people on this planet can do such gruesome things to other people. I wouldn’t want to sleep in that house either.

I'd go and stay there. I'd just tell the ghosts that I was on their side.

Okay, DreamTime, I am going to hold you to your word.  When will you be leaving? :P
