Johnny Depp won’t reveal if his 1800s estate in England is haunted – but he admits being scared out of his wits by ghosts at a creepy old Nevada mansion.
RadarOnline.com can reveal the 61-year-old actor’s hair-raising moment came during a stay in the famed Mackay Mansion in the Old West mining boomtown of Virginia City, where locals insisted the joint was haunted — and one night, he awoke to see two ghosts!
A source explained: “Johnny says he was sound asleep when something woke him.
“He wasn’t sure if he heard a voice or a sound … but standing at the end of his bed were two young girls” who reminded him of the kids in the film adaptation of Stephen King ’s book The Shining “and they scared the heck out of him.”
The ghostly girls didn’t speak but stared at him before slowly dissolving. The following day when he told the manager, the guy wasn’t surprised. Our source continued: “He said the girls had been seen before. “They were believed to have been Emma and Lily, the daughters of a staff member.”
The Mackay Mansion’s proprietor said: “Various guests reported seeing two thieves, who were shot trying to rob the onetime owner’s safe of gold bars and silver, a servant woman roaming the second-floor hallway, and an old colonel who is usually seen in the kitchen.”
The Pirates of the Caribbean star was shocked to see the two girls, who are blamed for repeatedly messing up a bed in an empty upstairs room.
Our source also spilled: “Johnny says he doesn’t scare easily but it was certainly ‘unsettling.’”

Doesn’t look like they rent rooms anymore. Maybe a special occasion because there was a lack of rooms in town when they were filming a movie there.
