00:00:00.185 --> 00:00:03.465
- Andrew Lloyd Weber once
had a ghost in his house.

2
00:00:03.465 --> 00:00:05.185
Do what you wish with that information.

3
00:00:05.185 --> 00:00:07.605
Hey, I'm Peter Scobel,
and here is an AV club.

4
00:00:07.605 --> 00:00:12.445
Newswire Theaters in London's

5
00:00:12.445 --> 00:00:14.225
West End are notoriously haunted

6
00:00:14.225 --> 00:00:16.015
and there's no shortage
of ghost sightings,

7
00:00:16.015 --> 00:00:19.565
which is why the Telegraph
asked award-winning composer

8
00:00:19.565 --> 00:00:21.085
Andrew Lloyd Weber, if any

9
00:00:21.085 --> 00:00:24.125
of the theaters he owned are
haunted, to which he responded

10
00:00:24.125 --> 00:00:25.945
by essentially saying no.

11
00:00:25.945 --> 00:00:27.235
But my house was haunted.

12
00:00:27.235 --> 00:00:30.335
Once, quote, I did have
a house in Eaton Square,

13
00:00:30.335 --> 00:00:31.705
which had a Poltergeist.

14
00:00:31.705 --> 00:00:33.685
It would do things like
take theater scripts

15
00:00:33.685 --> 00:00:36.465
and put them in a neat
pile in some obscure room.

16
00:00:36.465 --> 00:00:38.425
In the end, we had to get a priest to come

17
00:00:38.425 --> 00:00:40.265
and bless it, and it left.

18
00:00:40.265 --> 00:00:42.865
It doesn't seem to be
that pesky a poultrygeist,

19
00:00:42.865 --> 00:00:46.085
and in our opinion, probably
didn't deserve getting banished

20
00:00:46.085 --> 00:00:47.625
to another realm by a priest.

21
00:00:47.625 --> 00:00:50.085
But there you go. Andrew
Lloyd Weber apparently had a

22
00:00:50.085 --> 00:00:51.645
poultrygeist in his house, but it was

23
00:00:51.645 --> 00:00:53.545
exercised, so it's all good now.

24
00:00:53.545 --> 00:00:57.045
