Hugh Hefners ex who said he lasted one minute in bed is now a ghost hunter

Playboy Bunnies are usually known for their glitz and glamour – but a former lover of the late Hugh Hefner now earns a living as a ghost hunter.

Lad mag titan Hefner died in 2017 aged 91. And one of his most prominent exes was Bridget Marquardt, who famously starred in the Girls Next Door TV Series as one of his girlfriends.

The stunning blonde dated the hedonist between 2002 and 2009 and she has not been shy about publicising their Playboy Mansion romps.

Speaking about one of her first sexual encounters with him, she told the Juicy Scoop podcast: “I’d seen what everybody else was doing, so I knew that this was like a ten second thing, I mean definitely no more than a minute… It’s short.”

But her wild life of partying with the Playboy founder is a complete contrast to what she gets up today – and that’s because she is a paranormal investigator.

Bridget, 50, even describes herself as a “ghost enthusiast” to her almost half a million Instagram followers. But her obsession with the supernatural is not a recent one.

She told Nylon that her first spooky experience came when she was just a little girl who saw her dead grandad after experimenting with a Ouija board.

And even when she stayed in the Playboy Mansion she studied paranormal investigations and parapsychology – and four years ago she started her own Ghost Magnet podcast.

She also also appeared on Discovery+ show Ghost Adventures where she went to haunted locations to find out more.

On her podcast she opened up about hearing the ghost of her dead dog Winnie from inside her home in LA.

She said: “Even though I kept her groomed, her nails would still get stuck in the carpet a little bit and you’d hear it go ‘click, click, click, click' sometimes like velcro on the carpet when she walked by.

“And sometimes I think I’ll hear that and I think ‘oh it’s just the cat’ and I sit up and the cat’s asleep on the end of the bed, and I’m like ‘wait no it’s not the cat’.

“So maybe I’m getting signs but I really want something that’s concrete where I’m like ‘that’s definitely her.”

And one of Bridget’s bunny pals discussed whether they had encountered any ghosts roaming the rooms of the lavish Playboy Mansion.

Holly Maddison claimed that she once saw a ghost wearing a sports bra drifting through the mogul’s house.

She told Bridget on their Girls Next Level podcast: “The first one I had happened very early on for me, it was like right after I moved in.

“I see this girl walk out of the tanning bed room, and walk across to where the weight machines are, so I couldn’t see her.

“I didn’t know who she was, but that wasn’t unusual because when women would come out to test for Playmate or shoot different pictorials, they would be flown in from out of town, and they would stay on the grounds in the guest house.

“She didn’t look old-fashioned or anything, she looked contemporary, she was in regular workout wear, blonde hair… but I knew I didn’t recognise her.”

Holly, who also dated Hefner, said the ghost then vanished into thin air before she “tripped out” momentarily.

Bridget meanwhile said in a separate discussion that she “felt the nostalgia and the old energy” of the mansion and that sometimes the TV would change channels by itself.

But her own supernatural happenings became more apparent when she was pregnant but it is not something she fears.

She told Nylon: “I don’t know if it’s something that follows me around. My house in L.A. is almost 100 years old. There’s all kinds of voices and door opening and disembodied voices. I enjoy it, though; I like the entertainment.”

As for whether Hefner ever indulged her about her ghostly sightings, she said he was “not a believer”.

He lived in the Gothic-Tudor pad for 43 years and the property, which was built in 1927, was always rumoured to be haunted.

The man who built the home was Arthur Letts Jr – whose wife is said to have died after falling from the balcony, although this has never been confirmed.

People have theories on whether she jumped, fell or was pushed and some believe this original tale is why the infamous mansion is supposedly haunted to this day.
