Jolie helps Pitt against evil spirits

Angelina Jolie has apparently given Brad Pitt the ashes of a bat to protect him from accidents.

The New York Daily News reports that a friend of Brad's stumbled upon a mysterious grey vial whilst opening the Seven star's glove compartment. On questioning Pitt about his find, the friend discovered that powder it contained was in fact the remains of a bat courtesy of Alexander actress Angelina Jolie.

The gift's origin is perhaps unsurprising - Jolie and former husband Billy Bob Thornton used to wear pendants containing each other's dried blood.
