Did Elvis Presley REALLY fake his death of a drug-induced heart attack in 1977 and is he still alive today?
Elvis Presley: Your toughest questions about The King and his death answered by Derek Clontz
What about that picture of a “wax dummy” in his coffin – real, or fake?
And those sightings in Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1989, 12 years after he is said to have died … what’s the deal with that?
And then there was that motorcycle accident in which he is said to have broken his leg in 1992 – true, or a fabrication?
Ask Derek Clontz, the source for over 70 of those stories – all of them world exclusives – in a tabloid career dating back to 1982, when he wrote Elvis is Alive! for GLOBE based on sightings in Canada.
The story cycle began anew with Weekly World News in 1989, with the publication of yet another Elvis is Alive! story based on Gail Giorgio’s book, Is Elvis Alive?
That was followed with Elvis Lived With Waitress from 1979 to 1982 … Elvis Spotted at Burger King in Kalamazoo … Elvis Breaks Leg in Motorcyle Crash Just Days Ago … and dozens more, including Elvis’ Tomb is Empty and Where Elvis is Really Buried based on inside information from Presley family friend and preacher, the Rev. Gene Maugham, who showed Clontz – and Clontz only – the final resting place of The King’s casket, although not even a deep-seeking sonar scan commissioned by Clontz could prove that Presley was in it.
Maugham stepped forward after psychic and metaphysician Dr. Andy Reiss determined beyond the shadow of any reasonable doubt that Elvis is not, repeat, not under the marker that bears his name in the Meditation Garden at his opulent Graceland estate in Memphis, Tennessee.
