AceShowbiz - New "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast member Jennifer Tilly has captivated her costars with her tale of a haunting in her Malibu beach house. Tilly revealed that she hasn't visited the house in years due to a friendly but persistent ghost.

"I have a ghost," Tilly told her castmates Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke on an after-show segment. "He's mad because we don't stay there very often, so he thinks he has the run of the house."

Tilly explained that she had an eerie experience when she and her friends visited the house for a weekend. "I was washing up the dishes, and suddenly I heard a loud knock on the door," she said. "I was alone, and all the hair on my arms and scalp stood up."

Tilly opened the door, but there was no one there. She believes the ghost may have changed the lock, as it sounded like something had been tampered with. Despite trying to ward off the ghostly presence by painting the door red, it seems the ghost remains.

"He thinks he lives there, and I'm disrupting his house," Tilly said. "I haven't been to my beach house for about five or six years because of him."

Tilly's fellow cast members found her story hilarious, but she insists that it's a genuine experience. She also shared that she had previously discussed the ghost with Bravo cameras during filming of the show.

Jennifer Tilly, known for her role as Tiffany in the "Child's Play" horror franchise, joined the "Real Housewives" cast in April. While her most recent on-screen role as Chucky in the Syfy/USA series ended after three seasons, Tilly hinted that the doll could make a return.
