Editor's note: This article was originally published on April 14, 2023. It has since been updated. The idea of a doppelganger has fascinated people for centuries and it has been explored in various forms of media, including literature, film and television.

Jenny Stevenson told TODAY, "Our children were starting to argue in the backseat, so I found a little cottage for us to stay overnight."

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980).
