Elvis Presley was one of the biggest icons in American history. He was the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, and had millions of fans wherever he went. On August 16th, 1977 Elvis was rushed to the hospital with a heart attack. The 42 year old shockingly then died shortly after reaching the hospital.
People did not want to admit the fact that their hero had died so young and suddenly. Elvis sightings started to be reported all over the place. The rumors were that Elvis had faked his own death. The reason behind this was to get away from all the fans and reporters. Another theory was that he put away major drug dealers in a top secret witness protection program and those drug dealers threatened to kill him so he went to hide.
When it was confirmed that Elvis was dead and that he was no where else disguised as someone else, his ghost started to appear. A typical ghost sighting of Elvis took place on December 20th, 1980. A truck driver decided to pick up a hitchhiker, and when he introduced himself, the man replied he was Elvis Presley. The driver didn’t believe it at first but then he realized that this was truly the king himself. He also had to be dropped off on the block where he lived. People have also reported seeing his ghost in and around the house where he lived and died which is called the Graceland.
