Jennifer Lawrence Shares Ghostly Experiences Filming "Causeway" in New Orleans

Jennifer Lawrence, the Academy Award-winning actress known for "The Hunger Games" and "Silver Linings Playbook," revealed supernatural encounters she experienced while filming her 2022 movie "Causeway" in New Orleans.

Strange Events During Filming

On the "Las Culturistas" podcast, hosted by Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers, Lawrence described unsettling hauntings in both New Orleans and Charlotte, North Carolina, calling them "really bad." During the "Causeway" shoot in New Orleans, she moved hotels three times before finally settling in one.

The Hotel Incident

Lawrence recounted a chilling episode at the last hotel where she stayed. While lying in bed, she heard a housekeeper enter her room. When she got out from under the covers, she was told the housekeeper apologized for waking her and then left. Later, Lawrence realized her door had been deadbolted, making it impossible for anyone to have entered.

"I don't know, I just come from a world where we believe women," Lawrence said, responding to the possibility she might have been half-asleep during the incident.

Other Hauntings During the Shoot

Lawrence also remembered another eerie moment at a local house used during filming. While watching TV alone, she experienced kitchen doors repeatedly slamming open and shut for no apparent reason.
