5 Famous Musician Ghost Hauntings
2. Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley was more than a musician: he was a cultural icon. The man who was dubbed 'The King of Rock and Roll' was perhaps the most famous musical act of the 20th century.
In 1977, 'The King' was found dead in his Tennessee home. He died of a heart attack that may have been triggered by the prescription painkillers he was addicted to. Presley was 42 at the time of this death.
For years after his demise, Elvis sightings became commonplace and were frequently the subject of tabloid fodder. Moreover, there were (and still are) also some folks who claim to have encountered the legendary entertainer's ghost.
As is often the case with public figures who died tragically, there are rumors that Presley haunts the place of his death, his former home, Graceland. But Graceland isn't the only location he is said to frequent in the afterlife.
Over the course of his career, 'The King' recorded over 200 songs in RCA Studio B, which is located in Nashville, TN. Rumour has it that his spirit still frequents the establishment. According to studio employees, whenever Presley's name is mentioned, strange occurrences follow. These occurrences include things like the lights flickering on and off. Equipment in the area has also been known to mysteriously fall when his name is uttered. Yikes!
One has to wonder if Elvis is upset or if he just gets a kick out of getting the workers all riled up.
