00:00During the preparation for his role in the supernatural thriller The Ninth Gate, Johnny Depp delved into the occult world,
00:06participating in a chilling mirror ritual taught by a real-life practitioner of the dark arts.
00:10In the weeks that followed, Depp's nights were plagued by terrifying nightmares. He would see his reflection staring back at
00:16him, eyeless and grinning, even when he wasn't smiling.
00:19The actor could unshak the feeling that his mirror image had taken on a life of its own. The paranormal
00:24experiences didn't stop there. Depp began to sense an eerie presence watching him, as if his reflection had somehow stepped
00:30out of the mirror and into the real world.
00:32The haunting encounters became so intense that Depp halted production for several days, shaken to his core. He confided in
00:39the director, saying,
00:40I can't explain it, but something followed me out of that scene. It's like I've unleashed something I can't control.
