Katherine LaNasa, star of the series The Pitt, said in a recent interview that she believes she was “haunted” by the ghost of her ex-husband, actor Dennis Hopper, following his death in 2010.
LaNasa, who was married to Hopper from 1989 to 1992, said the actor appeared to her several times after his death, initially in a disturbing manner. “I believe in ghosts. Dennis Hopper’s ghost would not leave me alone for a long time,” LaNasa told W Magazine.
In one account, she described seeing Hopper in a wheelchair, recreating a scene similar to his appearance at the Academy Awards, which left her deeply shaken. “It was super disturbing,” she said.
According to the actress, these experiences were not merely memories or ordinary dreams, but episodes she interpreted as real visits from her former husband. She claims Hopper’s presence persisted for some time, until she finally asked him to leave her alone.
LaNasa also said that after making that request, she had an unexpected experience at an art gallery displaying Hopper’s photographs. She interpreted the encounter as a kind of sign of closure, especially after seeing an image of the actor among the exhibition pieces.
At another point, the actress recalled having a dream in which Hopper told her that he was fine and no longer in pain, which she described as a feeling of a final goodbye. “And I never heard from him again,” LaNasa revealed.
Dennis Hopper, known for films such as Easy Rider and Blue Velvet, was one of Hollywood’s most iconic figures, with a career that also included directing and television work. The actor died on May 29, 2010, at the age of 74, due to complications from prostate cancer.
