(OPINION) Octavia Spencer not only believes in ghosts, she has a friendship with one. The actress, 51, appeared on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” on Friday where she discussed her new movie “Encounter,” her belief in UFOs, and made the revelation that she’s joined by a spirit in her home from time to time.
Fox News stated: “I grew up watching Westerns and I bought this house, and it was owned by a guy who did Westerns and I must have been a fan of his. I think he is my protector,” Spencer said.
While some would be spooked at the thought of a spirit living among them, Spencer said the two have a pretty positive connection .”I love him because he kind of sorts out the bad people that shouldn’t be there. He runs them out.
If they stay at my place they don’t want to come back,” she said with a laugh. “And that’s how I know that they don’t belong there because if you’re a person that belongs there everybody is like, ‘Oh your place is so welcoming, it’s so great.” Watch the video below for more:
