It seems like Cheryl fans are living for her upcoming West End debut after a clip of her hunting ghosts resurfaced online.
The Crazy Stupid Love singer, 39, is starring as Jenny in the supernatural production 2:22 A Ghost Story, a role previously fronted by Lily Allen, Giovanna Fletcher, and Laura Whitmore.
Cheryl will step into the role from January to April at the Lyric Theatre in London.
Sharing a snap of herself looking suitably terrified on Instagram, Cheryl wrote: ‘Hey!!! .. I am SO excited to be starring in the west end thriller @222aghoststory !!
‘I will be playing the role of Jenny from January – April! I went to see the show with a previous cast and LOVED IT ! It is a totally new and exciting experience for me so if you’re looking for a fun night out & some entertainment in your new year tickets are available now….whenever you’re ready 😉!! 👻 #222aghoststory.’
While superfans and fellow celebrities congratulated the former X Factor judge on her new project, others shared the iconic Ghost Hunting with Girls Aloud 2006 special.

In the brief clip a frantic Cheryl is seen shouting into the distance: ‘If you’re in here just tap the f*****g table.’
A tap is later heard, and her fellow bandmates Kimberley Walsh, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts, and the late Sarah Harding scream and run away.
One of her bandmates however weren’t too pleased about Cheryl’s remark at the time as they yelled: ‘Cheryl what the f**k did you do that for.’
As the TV special clearly proves Cheryl ain’t afraid of no ghosts, fans are excited to see her make her debut on the stage.
One person tweeted: ‘Some of you haven’t seen how perfect Cheryl casting 2:22 is after Ghost Hunting with Girls Aloud!’
‘Bringing back those ghost hunting skills,’ another added.
A third person wrote: ‘Whoever’s idea it was to take girls aloud ghost hunting and film it deserves all the awards.’

Written by Danny Robins and directed by Matthew Dunster, the show follows Jenny, who believes her new home is haunted, while her husband Sam is not having any of it.
The couple argue with their first dinner guests, old friend Lauren and her new partner Ben, as belief and scepticism clash.
