Katherine LaNasa shared that her ex-husband Dennis Hopper’s ghost came to her several times after his 2010 death at age 74.

While confessing to W Magazine in an interview published on Tuesday, that she does in fact believe in ghosts, “The Pitt” star explained, “The ghost of Dennis Hopper would not leave me alone for a really long time.”

The exes were married from 1989 to 1992 but were split up for a “very long time” when Hopper visited LaNasa, 59.

“I was the last wife that he’d been with that he wasn’t currently divorcing, so I think that level of intimacy when you’re dying is maybe only something you can do with a partner?”

LaNasa elaborated on the “scary” way Hopper visited her for the first time, detailing, “He came one time looking like when he was at the Academy Awards.”

The “Speed” actor was in a wheelchair and fell down which was “super upsetting” for the “Two and a Half Men” actress.

Hopper would also “come over” LaNasa in a sweat, to which she asked him to leave her alone.

She claimed the ghost of Hopper obliged.

“Then I felt really weird about it,” she continued. “And then the day that I told someone how weird I felt about it, I walked home an odd way and ran into a gallery that had all of his photographs up, and a photograph of him in the very back of the gallery with a fedora on winking at the camera.”

For LaNasa, she took the image as a sign of Hopper letting her go.

However, the late star visited his ex one more time in a dream.

The former flames were “in a cafeteria in Greece” and Hopper let LaNasa know he was okay.

The “Big Love” star never heard from him again.

After LaNasa and Hopper — who shared son Henry, 35 — divorced in the early 90s, the latter tied the knot with actress Victoria Duffy in 1996.

The duo was married for 14 years before the “Easy Rider” star filed for divorce — five months before he passed from complications of prostate cancer.

For her part, LaNasa re-married actor French Stewart in 1998. The two divorced in 2009.

In 2012, the HBO star tied the knot for the third time with her current husband, “Melrose Place” star Grant Show.

The couple welcomed daughter Eloise, now 12, in 2014.

LaNasa and Show, 64 — who was previously married to Pollyanna McIntosh from 2004-2011 — are still going strong almost 14 years later.

In April, the actress shared the cheeky reason why her other half could never join her on “The Pitt.”

“He’s too handsome for the show,” LaNasa, who stars as nurse Dana Evans, told People at the time

“Maybe he can play some d–k surgeon or something,” she teased.

Despite Show’s uncertain future on the medical drama, he did work alongside his wife on HBO’s “Big Love” in 2006, where they first met.

Show and LaNasa also starred together on the drama “Satisfaction,” the comedy-drama “Devious Maids” and “Dynasty.”

“He was still kind of a wild man when I met him,” the actress recalled about meeting the actor. “I was like, ‘I’m not quite sure about this guy.’ I was really attracted to him, but I was in no mood for any trouble at that age. I was in my early 40s.”

LaNasa praised Show for winning her over.

“He’s such a great guy and great husband, great dad, and I’m so glad I’m with him,” she gushed.
