A stalking case involving Ghost frontman Tobias Forge is currently under investigation by police, according to Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.
A woman in her 40s has been charged with harassment after allegedly sending Forge a series of lengthy texts, physical letters, and even a package including a cell phone between July and October of 2025. Forge later turned that phone over to the police.
Forge is unfortunately no stranger to stalking. This case, however, marked something different for him. He said in a preliminary investigation report, “I feel quite reserved around people trying to contact me, but over the years I’ve had about a dozen stalkers. However, no one has done anything as invasive and downright threatening as sending a mobile phone. It wouldn’t have been so good if I lived at a secret address, for example. With that phone, I reached my limit.”
The woman also sent several payment requests of 5,000 kronor, approximately $530, to Forge over that same timespan.
She claims to have met Forge 18 years ago. Per her claims, they have been in contact every day via messaging apps and have been engaged since September of 2025. Forge disputes these claims, insisting he never met this person. This is also not the only case of this sort this woman has been involved in, as she faces other similar accusations from other individuals.
Forge said, “I don’t want to make her life worse,” he said. “I just want her to leave me alone and not hurt anyone else.”
