Ashley Tisdale endured a spooky experience on a recent trip to New Zealand.

The actress, who reprises her role as Sharpay Evans in High School Musical 3: Senior Year, revealed she felt an unearthly presence in her hotel room.

She said: "I thought my hotel room was haunted. Lights would go on and off and I'd hear things being thrown around the room. I could tell something was there."

However, Tisdale, who was in the the country shooting a new movie, has offered her own rational explanation of events. "I like to believe maybe it was just electrical problems," she added.
