Charli XCX and Emma Corrin were left terrified after being haunted by two ghosts on the set of their latest film.
The actor, 28, and the singer, 32, were filming their queer fantasy 100 Nights of Hero when they began to notice some strange happenings.
The cast and crew freaked out after noticing equipment malfunctions and strange sounds, according to the sun.
They were filming at the Grade II listed Knebworth Home, famous for being haunted by two ghosts called Spinning Jenny and 'Radiant Boy', when they felt a presence.
A source told the publication that Charli and Emma were sure there was a ghostly specter on set.
Charli XCX (pictured left) and Emma Corrin were terrified after experiencing a haunting on the set of their film 100 Nights Of Hero, with lights flickering and equipment malfunctioning.
They said: 'Charli and Emma were a little nervous during the filming of 100 Nights Of Hero because they felt like they were alone.
“But when the cameras started rolling, all kinds of weird things started happening.
“The sound recording equipment mysteriously failed and began cutting out and picking up distorted noises when no one was speaking.”
They added that the cameras were affected and the lights began to flicker, turning on and off accidentally.
The source added that when the team looked at the footage again, they found it was blurry and couldn't explain why.
The ghosts of Knebworth Home are well known and the legend of Spinning Jenny has been around for centuries.
According to the story The sound of spinning can be heard after a woman was locked in a room to keep her away from her lover, who was from a poor family, and sits in front of her spinning wheel to pass the time.
The cast and crew were scared after noticing malfunctioning equipment and strange sounds while filming at the Grade II listed Knebworth Home.
The second ghost is known as the “Radiant Child” and was first discovered in the 19th century by a family guest, Lord Castlereagh.
The companion took his own life just a few years after first encountering the creepy spirit and others who have seen him claim that he appears in front of you, running his fingers across his throat.
The cast was filming at the historic stately home Knebworth Home, which has provided the backdrop for a host of films including The King's Speech, Batman and Paddington 2.
The chilling story from the set comes after Charli was first spotted on the set of the medieval fantasy film.
The Grammy-nominated pop star looked a far cry from her ordinary self in the first images of the queer period drama based on the graphic novel by Isabel Greenberg.
Although her role has yet to be announced, Charli looked regal as she walked around the set in a floor-length crushed green velvet dress, with a matching printed robe over the top.
The eccentric outfit featured a black belt with a gold sun symbol in the middle and a large pendant necklace to complete the look.
Charli's co-star Emma was also seen filming on Monday and was seen joking around with fellow actress Maika Monroe.
Nicholas Galitzine stars in the fantasy film, a lascivious villain who arrives at his friend's house and bets that he can seduce his wife Cherry in 100 days.
Emma, as the heroine, knows the villain's plans and plots with her lover to thwart his attempts to seduce her.
Emma appeared to be having fun on set as they played a Viking horn while filming at the top of a large tower in the Hertfordshire countryside last week.
And Maika, 31, was also in good spirits and was seen laughing with her co-star between takes.
The duo were seen filming scenes for the medieval fantasy film in a mysterious building in the middle of the countryside.
Emma and Maika wore long blood red robes with billowing capes.
At one point, My Policeman star Emma, who is non-binary and uses they pronouns, held up a large horn which they blew on before handing it to Maika.
Later, Emma and the Longlegs star were blindfolded with bright red cloths and throughout the filming process the two laughed and smiled.
Cherry, played by Maika, tells a series of captivating stories to distract the villain from his cruel intentions.
Between takes, the two actors were seen laughing as they performed in front of a mysterious figure who was wearing a matching red tunic with a large round hat and was flanked by two guards dressed all in black.
100 Nights Of Hero is a feminist version of 1001 Nights, or Arabian Nights, and follows a charming houseguest played by Nicholas Galitzine.
She arrives at a remote castle and is introduced to a neglectful husband, his innocent bride Cherry (Maika Monroe), and her devoted maid Hero (Emma Corrin).
