Father's Ghost Once Visited Drew Barrymore

Darpan News Desk IANS, 07 Nov, 2015 01:49 PM
    Actress Drew Barrymore says she was once visited by the ghost of her father, John Barrymore.
     
    The 40-year-old actress claims she felt her father's presence during "a very unique moment" shortly before scattering his ashes at the Joshua Tree National Park in California, reports femalfirst.co.uk.
     
    "We put his ashes at Joshua Tree. He loved Joshua Tree and I had spent a lot of time with him there whenever I visited. So we took his ashes there and I went to this little motel and I was sleeping until we were all going to wake up and spread the ashes.
     
    And I felt a thing and I sat up in my bed and the doorknob of my room opened and the door just opened. And I just sat up in bed and I was like, 'Dad?', Barrymore said on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show".
     
    "It was a moment where you can have hope about anything being possible, and it was a very unique moment,” she added.
