A local couple, accused of setting a series of fires in their Alexandria apartment, is due in court Tuesday for a status hearing.

Court documents revealed evidence of five separate fires.

When questioned, the couple told investigators the apartment was haunted and believed ghosts were setting the fires.

One of the fires involved a crib mattress while their infant was sleeping.
