Did Kevin Bacon Invest In a Haunted House?
As reported by Entertainment Weekly,Kevin Baconmentioned that he acquired his rustic farmland as far back as 1983. However, the purchase of the adjoining land came with a unique condition: Bacon had to strike a deal with the owner to demolish a house situated there. The previous landowner had a firm belief that the house was plagued by the supernatural.
Bacon saidEW:
“I bought a piece of land and the owner of it did not want me to own the house present in it. The owner believed that the house was haunted and I’d get possessed by it and might do some serious damage.”
Kevin Bacon shared that he engaged in multiple negotiations, making several visits to the house until he finally struck a deal with the owner. Their agreement entailed demolishing the house within a month of Kevin’s purchase.
Furthermore, he recounted how the property’s owner held a belief that the house was haunted due to a historical account from the 1700s. Allegedly, Native Americans had been tragically killed on the premises by colonial soldiers. Kevin added humorously, “The owner had Ghostbusters there. It was a whole thing.“
In his closing remarks, Kevin Bacon emphasized that he hadn’t personally witnessed any paranormal occurrences since acquiring the property.

Kevin Bacon Lost a Huge Sum In the Ponzi Scheme
Bernie Madoff, a former chairman of the Nasdaq stock market and a prominent figure on Wall Street, primarily collaborated with charitable organizations and celebrities, guiding them toward high-return investment opportunities. What remained concealed from most, though, was Madoff’s involvement in a Ponzi scheme, which operated by using funds from new investors to settle obligations to earlier investors in a methodical manner.
The facade unraveled in 2008 when the truth emerged, driven by investors seeking to retrieve their funds amidst the recession. Madoff found himself in a predicament, as he had to fulfill these requests with funds he neither possessed nor could obtain. Over several years, clients had been deceived into believing that their investments held substantial value, a stark contrast to the harsh reality.
Bernie Madoff’s fraudulent activities took a heavy toll on numerous celebrities, including Jeffrey Katzenberg, one of the co-founders of DreamWorks Pictures alongside Steven Spielberg. It’s estimated that Bacon’s losses as a result of Madoff’s Ponzi scheme ranged from a staggering $30 million to as much as $100 million. This financial hit had a profound impact on Bacon’s net worth, which saw a significant decline, with estimates placing it at approximately $45 million as of 2021.
