‘Ghostbusters’ star Dan Aykroyd<\/a> was haunted by \u201cthree S-shaped spirits\u201d which made him flee his family\u2019s farmhouse in terror.<\/p>\n

Dan Aykroyd recalls being haunted at family farmhouse<\/p>\n

The 71-year-old actor\u2019s family held seances at the property in Ontario for generations as his great-grandfather was a renowned spiritualist, his telephone engineer grandfather investigated the possibility of contacting the dead via radio technology and his father Samuel Aykroyd published books on the history of the supernatural.<\/p>\n

Dan was inspired to create the 1984 comedy \u2013 which is getting another sequel ‘Frozen Empire’ this year \u2013 from his visits to the house, but one stay left him and a friend running in pure fear.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Empire magazine, he recalled: \u201cThat farmhouse was where I originated the idea for ‘Ghostbusters’, reading my father\u2019s American Psychical Research journals. Many years ago, a friend and I went upstairs there and saw three S-shaped spirits following one another across the landing. Energies of once-living humans, come back to intrude! We ran right out of there!\u201d<\/p>\n

As well as seeing ghosts, Aykroyd also believes objects can be possessed by both good and evil spirits and he claims his late friend Michael Jackson \u2013 whose ‘Liberian Girl’ video he starred in back in 1989 \u2013 told him he once own a haunted cabinet.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: \u201cSome objects can carry spirits. Michael Jackson spoke of a cabinet he bought in Germany that was possessed. There was stuff going on in there. He had to get rid of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nSharing his own experience of a moving object in the former home he shared with his wife Donna Dixon, he added: \u201cA while back, at our old house, I was falling asleep one night and suddenly I heard a clinking sound and saw Donna\u2019s bracelet and earrings doing a dust-devil whirlwind dance on the bedside table. But that wasn\u2019t necessarily a spirit manipulating them; it was probably due to my own residual psychokinetic energy. Beverly D\u2019Angelo lives in that house now, and she says there\u2019s still stuff going on in there.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
