Enjoy my exploration of weird and fantastic events in history - related to horror, fantasy, literature, and just plain news of the strange.

The World Cup is over, have you gotten enough of the sport celebrities? I haven't. My favorite pair, the gruesome twosome, Dave and Victoria Beckham have put their house on the market because it is supposedly haunted.
Leslie Duck was the prior owner - he was a very happy man, well traveled and popular. And then he became very ill and took his own life in 2001. His ashes we interred on the estate...and then the rumours started to circulate. A man that looked just like Leslie was seen around the property... walking like him, speeking like him (about Naval battles!).
Apparantly, The Beckham's never heard this. But now they have, and Victoria refused to even spend one night at the house even though it's worth nearly 2.5 MILLION.
The house is near Cote D'Azur and was built in the mid 18th century.
