Autonomous meme-generation beacon Keanu Reeves was on Jimmy Kimmel last night, promoting his latest movie, John Wick. In the middle of the standard interview questions — what was Keanu's favorite movie to work on? (The Matrix) — Kimmel threw out the question I hope we'd all ask: Has Keanu Reeves ever seen a ghost?

The answer is yes, Keanu Reeves has seen a ghost. Maybe. When he was young, he saw what was either some kind of floating jacket, or a ghost, and who is to say which it really was? No one, except a second witness to the event whose terrified face confirmed that, yes, it was a ghost.

But Keanu's preface to the story is what ties it all together. After being asked if he'd been visited by the great beyond, he told Kimmel, "It was in New York. It was cool."
