Lady Gaga holds Halloween séance

She specialises in scary looks, but Lady Gaga doesn't like being on the receiving end of a good fright herself.

The "Pokerface" hitmaker believes she is being haunted by an "annoying" ghost named Ryan, who follows her across the world wherever she tours. She is reportedly “terrified” by the ghost's constant presence.

“She’s been telling us all for months that she has a male spirit called Ryan who travels the world with her," the Daily Star quoted a member of her crew as saying. “She’s pretty terrified by this spirit, but more than anything he’s annoying her as he won’t leave her alone. He’s hasn’t been doing anything too violent or scary but she’s freaked out by his presence. She’s a very spiritual person and in tune with the spiritual world but this is a step too far, even for her.”

Apparently, the singer held a séance on Halloween to rid herself of Ryan, about whom little is known. “Lady Gaga contacted a spirit medium and organised a seance so she could communicate with him and tell him to go away. She gathered all her friends over the weekend in Belfast, Ireland, and held the seance to find out what he wants. She’s convinced she picked this up as a bad omen," the source said. “Although most of her friends were sceptical they agreed to take part.”

It has previously been revealed that Gaga, 24, has spent thousands of dollars on ghostbusters and splashed out $47,000 on state -of-the-art Electro Magnetic Field meters to detect spirits.
