Simon said: "My wife Emma, my eldest son, Alfie, and I have seen a woman who’s dressed in white and crosses the landing by the stairs.

“One time, about 1.30am, I saw her go across. First I thought it was Emma coming in after a night out with her friends.

“When I rang to ask if it was her, she replied, ‘No, you’re going to tell me you’ve seen a woman crossing the landing, aren’t you? I’ve seen her, too!’

“Alfie has seen the most, though. He’s told us he’s seen a woman outside his room and what looked like the heads of children poking around the door.”

Simon lives in a six bedroom house in Cheshire and has taken part in Celebrity Help! My House is Haunted.

The Corrie star, who has three children with wife Emma, said: "We moved here in 2007, and, three years later, spooky things started happening.

“I would call myself a sceptical believer – I believe in it but I need concrete evidence to make me 100 per cent.

“I’ve always been interested in paranormal activity, though. I’ve always thought, ‘It can’t just be us here – there’s got to be something else, right?’”

Ghost hunter Barri Ghai, psychic medium Ian Lawman and paranormal researcher Jayne Harris all visit Simon's house on the programme.

“I wanted to know exactly what we’ve got here, so, hopefully, we could put the whole thing to rest and get rid of the ghosts!"
