'We Had To Get A Priest': Andrew Lloyd Webber Describes Poltergeist In His Home

This particular ghost was purportedly rather organized — and stacked Webber's theater scripts into "a neat pile" at night.

Andrew Lloyd Webber says he’s never seen a ghost — but briefly once lived with one.

The renowned composer recently sat down with The Telegraph and, as co-creator of “The Phantom of the Opera,” was naturally asked if any of the theaters he owns are haunted. Webber denied as much, before making an intriguing claim about his home in London.

“I did have a house in Eaton Square which had a poltergeist,” he told the outlet in an interview Tuesday. “It would do things like take theatre scripts and put them in a neat pile in some obscure room. In the end we had to get a priest to come and bless it, and it left.”

This purportedly organized ghost starkly contrasts a traditional poltergeist, which remain unproven but are nonetheless known for their mischief, violence and noise. The term itself translates directly from German to “rapping” or “thudding” ghost.

Webber’s home is notably situated in Belgravia, a central neighborhood developed in the 19th century by Marquess of Westminster, Robert Grosvenor. From those noble roots sprang some of the best schools and most expensive homes in the world.
