LONDON, May 29: The English country mansion where supermodel Claudia Schiffer and her new husband Matthew Vaughn will begin their married life is haunted, according to Britain’s Ghost Club.

The club says on its website it has written to the newly-weds to warn them to look out for any spooky extras among the famous guests in their wedding photographs when they return from honeymoon.

A young nun named Penelope, a member of the Rockwood family who owned Coldham Hall for several generations, is believed to haunt the property each summer, the club says. During her lifetime she would have visited the mansion in eastern England at that time of year on holiday from her convent.

Schiffer and Vaughn are on honeymoon in a secret location after their extremely private wedding reception at the 16-century property they bought for five million pounds ($7 million), and could not be reached for comment.

The Ghost Club, which claims to be “Britain’s oldest psychical research organisation,” says it is urging the couple to preserve Coldham Hall’s supernatural heritage and considers them “very lucky” to own such a property.
