Author of "Little Women" Haunted Cast Members Of The Movie | Mysterious Universe
According to cast members, the set of Little Women was allegedly haunted by the ghost of Louisa May Alcott. Born in 1832, Alcott was an American author who was best known for writing the novel Little Women back in 1868.
In an interview with OprahMag.com, the cast members of Little Women claimed to have felt the spirit of Alcott while filming the movie. While there have been several different movies based on the book, why was this newest version the only one to be haunted by Alcott’s ghost? It may be because this was the only version (besides a silent movie in 1918) that was filmed in Alcott’s hometown of Concord, Massachusetts.
Laura Dern, who played Marmee March in the movie, told OprahMag.com, “What’s incredible about being in Concord, is that you’ll say in this shy way, ‘I sort of feel the spirit of Louisa,’ and locals will say, ‘Oh yeah. That’s haunted. We see her all the time. She walks with the girls all the time.”
Concord is full of reminders of the Alcott family, as the Orchard House (Louisa’s childhood home) is now a museum that contains paintings done by Abigail May Alcott Nieriker. And just a mile away is the grave of the Alcotts’ third daughter, Elizabeth.
Greta Gerwig, who was the writer and director of the movie, told The Hollywood Reporter that she was “seized by the spirit of Louisa May Alcott,” and had a spiritual connection with the late author.
