Khloe Kardashian Shares Son Tatum’s Spiritual Bond With Her Late Dad

by

Khloe Kardashianis keeping up with the spirit realm.  

Khloé Kardashian recently shared a touching story about her son, Tatum. The three-year-old, whose father is Tristan Thompson, learned a special word that reminded him of his late grandfather, Robert Kardashian Sr.

On the December 18th episode of The Kardashians, Khloe, 41, recalled a sweet moment when her child accidentally called Kris Jenner “honey”—a term her late husband used to affectionately refer to her.

Oh my god, you guys, I was totally listening to what Tatum said, and she was like, she wants to call Kris ‘honey’! Can you believe it?! And Kylie was just as shocked as I was, she turned to Kris and was like, ‘Wait, Tatum actually calls you that?’ I’m seriously losing it right now, it’s the cutest thing ever!

The 71-year-old nodded her head and clarified, “That’s what Robert used to call me.” 

Khloe was surprised by what Tatum shared, because no one had ever told him about Robert—her father, who passed away in 2003 at 59 from esophageal cancer—or the sweet nickname Robert had. However, Kris says Tatum has felt a connection to his grandfather for a while now.

She explained that he called her ‘Honey’ and then told her a story. He described Robert, saying he was very funny and had been crying. She asked, ‘Was Grandpa crying? Why?’ And Tatum replied, ‘Because he loves you,’ while pointing at her face.

Kris Jenner, founder of Kris Jenner Beauty, shared that her young child occasionally says goodnight to his grandfather. This comes after her divorce from the child’s father, an attorney, which happened in 1991 following a 13-year marriage.

She described how a three-year-old was talking about conversations with his grandfather, a man he’d never actually met. She found it remarkable that he claimed to see his grandfather, even though no one else could. She noted it was a curious situation.

Khloe, who is also a mom to 7-year-old True with Tristan, says she hasn’t dreamed about her dad in years, but she’s experienced some strange happenings. She recently claimed a ghost in her former lake house actually touched her hair.

Let me tell you, I’m a huge believer in creating a safe and comfortable sleep environment, and this story really highlights why! A while back, I was woken up by a noise – it sounded like someone walking down the hallway between my room and my daughter True’s. I immediately called out to her, but then checked the baby monitor and she was still sound asleep! It was so strange, and honestly, a little spooky. Ever since that night, I’ve always slept with a light on. It just gives me peace of mind!

She finally drifted off to sleep, forgetting the earlier noise, but a gentle breeze on her face woke her up.

Oh my god, she said it felt like a tiny hand! I can just feel her panic when she describes closing her eyes, desperately wishing it wasn’t real, just repeating ‘Please don’t be there’ over and over. And then…nothing! Can you imagine the relief, quickly followed by being totally freaked out? It’s just… chilling! I’ve replayed that part of the interview a million times, honestly. It’s the detail about the small hand that gets me every time.

The Kardashians star wasn’t interested in keeping up with this eerie experience.

 

Khloe Kardashian says she and her daughter, True Thompson, were bothered by a ghost – she thinks it was a young girl – when they were living in a rented house.

 

Khloe described a frightening experience on her podcast, Khloe in Wonder Land, recalling that the ghostly figure stroked her hair. She said it was so terrifying that she hasn’t been able to sleep in the dark since, as she shared in December 2025.

 

I was asleep at the rental house in the Oaks,” she remembered. “There’s a hallway connecting True’s room to mine. True was still in a crib, and she always stayed put, so I heard footsteps. I called out, ‘True?’ but when I checked the baby monitor, she was still sleeping. It was strange, so I just went back to sleep—it was the middle of the night, after all—and closed my eyes.

 

Khloe said she could feel a small hand on her face whiel she was in her bed.

 

I’ll never forget it. I actually closed my eyes and just kept repeating, ‘Please don’t be there, please don’t be there,’ hoping whatever I was fearing wasn’t real. When I finally looked, there was absolutely nothing. I was completely terrified!

The one where Courteney Cox shares a ghost story.

 

The Friends actress shared with Howard Stern that a delivery person rang her bell and let her know someone unexpected had arrived.

 

Courteney recounted a couple of spooky experiences. The first happened after she answered the door for a delivery. The person then casually mentioned the house was haunted, claiming someone was standing behind her, which understandably startled her.

She also had a frightening experience in London shortly after arriving. Despite being jet-lagged and unable to sleep, she closed her eyes and began seeing scary, old faces. She tried to make them stop, and then realized they resembled family members like her mother, father, and aunt. She also noticed lights flickering and a plant moving.

She woke her partner, Johnny McDaid, to tell him she was seeing spirits, but he insisted she was still asleep and that there were no ghosts. Courteney was certain she was awake, but ultimately, she simply asked the spirits to leave and not return, and they didn’t.

Demi Lovato believes her childhood home in Texas is haunted. She remembers a time when she was a little girl, talking to someone her mother couldn’t see. Demi told her mom she was speaking with a girl named Emily in a picture frame, and her sister later had a similar experience, claiming a girl lived in the closet.

Demi also recalls predicting strange occurrences to her friends. She’d tell them something would happen, and it usually did—once, a friend texted that the house felt haunted and received multiple replies saying “definitely,” even though he only sent the message once.

Another time, Demi’s uncle saw a balloon float down the stairs and turn a corner, seemingly on its own. These experiences have convinced Demi that her childhood home is genuinely haunted.

Joey King experienced a genuinely scary situation while filming The Conjuring as a child, separate from the movie’s scares. She began developing unexplained bruises on her body, appearing on her stomach and chest. The makeup artists initially thought she was playfully taking their fake bruises. However, King insisted the bruises were real. A doctor’s visit revealed she had a rare blood-thinning condition called ITP, causing a mysterious drop in her red platelet count. This had never happened before and hasn’t recurred since, with no family history of the condition. As a result, King had to visit the hospital twice a day during filming. Strangely, when she returned home, her platelet levels were normal, and she’s never had any further issues with the disorder.

Ariana Grande shared a spooky story about a frightening experience she had in Kansas City back in 2013. She told Complex magazine about visiting a supposedly haunted castle and then wanting to go to Stull Cemetery, which is rumored to be one of the gateways to hell. While driving, she and her companions felt a heavy, negative energy, smelled sulfur, and noticed a random fly in the car – all signs, according to legend, of a demonic presence. Ariana said she immediately asked to leave, apologizing for disturbing whatever was there. She even took a photo, which later revealed three clear, demonic faces. Strangely, when she tried to send the picture to her manager, the file size was exactly 666 megabytes, preventing it from being sent.

Ariana also recounted another unsettling incident where she saw a large black cloud beside her bed. She called for help, and someone advised her to tell it to go away, but she worried that would make it worse. Instead, she decided to remain calm and not react, believing it fed on fear. She watched the cloud move to the front of her bed, then fell asleep on the phone, and when she woke up, it was gone.

Octavia Spencer says she’s perfectly comfortable sharing her home with a ghost. She explained on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that she bought the house from someone who worked on Western films – a genre she enjoyed growing up. She believes the spirit of the former owner now protects her, effectively scaring away unwanted visitors. According to Spencer, people who don’t belong in her home quickly decide they don’t want to return, while those who are welcome feel comfortable and at ease. While she affectionately refers to her ghost as ‘shady’ – sometimes closing doors or turning off lights when she’s away – she’s clear about one thing: she doesn’t want any other spirits joining the party. She’s happy with her ghost and wants to maintain that one-on-one relationship, even establishing boundaries to ensure she isn’t haunted despite their cohabitation.

Jennifer Aniston experienced some spooky occurrences in a former Los Angeles home, though she didn’t consider the presence a friendly one. She told James Corden on The Late Late Show that appliances would turn on by themselves – the dishwasher, coffee maker, and stereo would suddenly start at full volume – which she found terrifying.

To address the issue, she hired a specialist to cleanse the house of the spirit. During the process, a dish cracked in the first corner the specialist approached, and a heavy ashtray from 1975 also shattered. The specialist then asked Jennifer to leave so she could communicate with the spirit.

Surprisingly, the spirit’s complaint wasn’t about Jennifer, but about her roommate! Jennifer admitted she moved out but never told her roommate the reason, not wanting to say, “It doesn’t like you.”

I’m a huge believer in the paranormal, and Miley Cyrus’ story completely resonates with me. She shared this incredible experience about a spirit that seemed to attach itself to her after a really tough time. You see, a friend of hers gifted her a ton of Elvis memorabilia after their parent passed away. Sadly, her Malibu home burned down in 2018, destroying everything. After that, things got… strange. She started sensing the presence of her friend’s mom in her L.A. house, almost like the fire had ‘released’ her.

Apparently, this spirit would hang out in the guest room, and Miley could actually smell cigarette smoke, even though no one was smoking! Her dogs would go absolutely crazy whenever the presence was near, barking and getting really agitated. She even said just a couple of nights ago she saw what she believes was her friend’s mom sitting on the couch, playfully teasing her dogs – something she apparently did a lot when she was alive. It was so real to Miley that she ended up taking the photo of her friend’s mom down. It’s a chilling story, but honestly, it just reinforces my belief that spirits can linger, especially when connected to meaningful objects or places.

Keanu Reeves shared a spooky story about something he saw as a young child. When he was around 6 or 7 years old, living in New York, he witnessed a strange sight in his apartment. He described seeing just a jacket waving back and forth through a doorway – no head, body, or legs attached! He recounted the experience on Jimmy Kimmel Live, saying he didn’t think much of it at the time, but his nanny was terrified. Reeves remembers looking over and seeing his nanny with her jaw dropped, which made him realize it wasn’t just his imagination. He thought it was ‘cool’!

Vanessa Hudgens isn’t trying to avoid or get rid of any ghostly encounters. In fact, she seems to welcome her ability to connect with the spiritual world. She explained on The Kelly Clarkson Show in 2022 that she acknowledges she both sees and hears things.

One memorable experience happened when she was eight years old with a pull-along duck toy. She recalls it moving alongside her on its own while she was walking.

Now, Vanessa is actively exploring this ability. She admitted to Kelly Clarkson that she used to be frightened and suppress these experiences because the unknown can be scary. However, she’s now embracing it as a gift and recently participated in her first official paranormal investigation, complete with equipment.

Actor Hugh Grant shared a spooky story about his son. Back in 2016, he noticed his son would often stare at a corner of his room. Other people, like family and nannies, began to see something there too, asking who the little boy in the corner was.

Grant, despite being a rational person, decided to call a ghostbuster. The ghostbuster visited their home and immediately felt a strong presence in his son’s room, with her equipment going haywire. She performed a cleansing ritual, burning sage and playing an instrument, claiming to have removed any spirits.

However, the next morning, Grant’s son reported seeing a little boy at his window. This led Grant to believe the house was truly haunted and that they needed to move.

 

Okay, so you HAVE to hear this story about Brian Cox! It still gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. He was in Edinburgh, just trying to get some sleep, and he said he suddenly heard this rocking sound. He looked up, and his chair… it just started moving! Seriously, rocking across the floor, right in front of his bed. Can you imagine?! He was totally freaked out, dove under the covers, and even swore a little – he thought it was awful! He did manage to fall asleep eventually, but the next morning? The chair was still there, and the floor was covered in scratch marks! Like something had been dragging it around. It’s just… so creepy! I’ve been obsessed ever since he told this story – it’s amazing!
