scream when she thought she encountered a ghost in her LA home.The “Scream” star, 57, recounted the horror tale on a recent episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” — and shared why she felt she had to actually sell her Laurel Canyon pad because of it.Cox stars in the upcoming Starz horror-comedy series “Shining Vale,” and host Jimmy Kimmel, 54, asked her if she ever saw a ghost herself.“I didn’t believe it at first,” she said, adding that her house once was owned by burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee, as well as singer/songwriter Carole King.The “Friends” actress then revealed that King, 80, came over to have a séance with her to banish the spirit from the property.
However, Cox was too awestruck by the Grammy-winner to pay attention to their supernatural activity. “So, Carole King came over to my house and she said there had been a divorce that was really ugly, and there was a ghost in the house,” Cox said. “And I was ‘Yeah, whatever.’ But other people who had stayed there with me — like, friends of mine — said they had an encounter with a woman who was sitting on the edge of the bed.”But Cox then revealed that the moment she actually felt scared was when a delivery man came to her door and made a spooky statement.“I was at the house one day, not being a believer.
And the doorbell rang,” she recalled. “It was a UPS guy or something, and I opened the door and he said, ‘Do you know this house is haunted?’ “And I go, ‘Yeah, why?
Why do you think that?'”That’s when the visitor pointed out a too-close-for-comfort ghostly presence. “He goes, ‘Because there is someone standing behind you,'” Cox said. “And I was like, ‘Let’s sell.'”Cox unloaded the house not long after that incident — and the rest is history.
