"I was quite spooked at times."We heard lots of banging and there was definitely a strange feeling in certain rooms. Some of the bathrooms there reminded me of a crypt they felt so spooky."Hunter, who was once married to British rocker Rod Stewart with whom she has two children, Renee, 14, and Liam, 12, was born and raised in New Zealand before moving to the US to pursue a modelling career.The beautiful blonde, who bought the six-bedroom mansion after selling the home she once shared with Stewart, added: "I did some research and apparently it was the spirit of a woman who was tortured and murdered.
