Sept. 15 2011, Published 3:47 p.m. ET
Fudgesicles are no laughing matter. Just ask Nicolas Cage who told reporters at the Toronto Film Festival about his home intrusion story which sounds downright creepy! Filming the thriller Trespass, a movie about home invasion, wasn't too far off since he had a real life encounter with a naked man wearing his leather jacket eating the frozen treat!
According to Reuters, he explained, "It was two in the morning. I was living in Orange County at the time and was asleep with my wife. My two-year old at the time was in another room. I opened my eyes and there was a naked man wearing my leather jacket eating a Fudgesicle in front of my bed."

Nicolas added, "I know it sounds funny...but it was horrifying."
So, how exactly did that bizarre confrontation end? The actor talked the man out of his house and then the cops arrived. Clearly the man had mental problems and Nicolas didn't press charges but the whole experience was enough for Nicolas to indicate he couldn't stay in the house after that incident.
