Daisy May Cooper has revealed she has had several encounters with ghosts and there was always a Ouija board ‘lying around’ and her brother Charlie’s house.
The pair rose to fame for starring and co-writing the BBC mokumentary style show This Country based on their real-life experiences living together.
Now they are back with the new series NightWatch which sees them spend the night in some of the UK’s scariest buildings.
Both Daisy, 39, and her brother, 36, have always had an interest in the supernatural with Charlie telling Heat magazine: ‘There was always a Ouija board lying around, and mum would have friends who were spiritual mediums.’
Daisy added: ‘I’ve had a few different encounters with ghosts – such as something pulling my duvet up from my bed, and the legs of a little boy running in my bedroom a few years ago.’
She also claimed her mother once heard a man’s voice saying ‘Honey’ which is the same of her dead dog.

Meanwhile, Charlie said their grandfather once saw a ‘peasant figure with a pickaxe’.
Daisy recently admitted This Country won’t be making a return due to her dramatic weight loss.
The series last aired in 2020 following three successful seasons and since then Daisy has undergone a dramatic health transformation and has lost ten stone.
And now the star has joked she would never be able to play Kerry again unless her character ‘had a tapeworm’.
Speaking to the Radio Times, Daisy revealed her and her brother are working on something new: ‘It’s early days but we’re working on something unscripted.
‘We can’t do This Country, though, because I’ve lost so much weight and I’ve had my lips done. We’d have to say that Kerry’s had a tapeworm and been stung by a bee.’
Daisy has been on a dramatic weight loss journey over the last two years but previously revealed she has since been flooded with messages telling her that she’s ‘no longer funny’ since changing her appearance.
Discussing her appearance, the mother-of-two told the BBC podcast How To Be In The Spotlight: ‘I’m so for body positivity but when I was at my biggest I was at my most miserable and I had a massive food addiction.’

Daisy – who split from husband Will Weston in July 2021 after nearly two years of marriage – went on: ‘I wasn’t healthy. I couldn’t breathe when I was walking up the stairs. I was so unhappy.
‘And I’ve had some messages like, “Well, now you’ve lost the weight you’re not funny any more.”
‘What the f**k? Why do women have to be f**king fat to be funny? That makes me so angry. I champion anybody. I think everybody should be happy with their body. But I wasn’t.’
Daisy May and Charlie’s NightWatch will air on BBC Two and iPlayer.
