Beckham's Bargemon villa haunted

Beckham's Bargemon villa in Provence is haunted, per the Daily Mail.  It is exactly three years since the couple paid £1.5 million for the property after "falling in love" with it on a flying visit in 2003. Yet since then, they have not spent a single night there. (They prefer Elton's gaff in Nice).

A white-bearded apparition - allegedly the previous owner who committed suicide at the end of a crippling muscle disease - has been spotted by locals. "It was just a few months after Leslie's death that the reports of his ghost wandering around started. He would never harm anybody - he just mumbles a bit, going on about naval battles and other historical events which he was passionate about."

Posh don't like ghosts, so that's that. They only found out about the "hauntings" after the purchase, it seems.

What a bizarre story.
