Elvis Presley's ghost is said to be haunting Graceland decades after his death.

Forty-five years ago, Presley was found dead inside his Graceland's bathroom. The home remains the same as how he left it when he passed away, but his ghost reportedly roams the area these days.

In an interview with Danny Smith for his Memphis Mafia Kid YouTube channel, Presley's cousin Billy Smith recalled the times he experienced ghost sightings inside Graceland. After staying in the house after the singer's death, he received a sign from Presley's ghost that he needed to move out of the mansion already.

Per Smith, the King of Rock and Roll had been calling him from upstairs where he died in 1977.

"I did. In fact, I guess that was the biggest reason I left Graceland. Got to a point where I'd go to sleep, it'd be early in the morning and I would hear him calling me. And I even got up and got Jo up too. She used to wake up too sometimes close to the same time," he said.


He recalled feeling something strange when he stood near the front of Graceland and saw the windows upstairs.

But when they brought back Presley's casket into Graceland and buried it there, he decided to leave the home for good.

This resonated with what Priscilla Presley repeatedly said. As quoted by Express, she reportedly felt her ex-husband's presence at the mansion.

Smith's son Billy also recalled a hair-raising paranormal encounter.

In a new video, Danny recalled sitting in the man cave while listening to Hank Williams Jr.'s songs. The tracks were on the first CD, while the second had sixties classics.

Presley's songs, meanwhile, were in the CD on the third slot.

Instead of playing the second CD, the player skipped to Presley's CD instead.

Presley died in 1977 before his supposed August 17 concert in Maine's Cumberland County Civic Center. Ginger Allen, his then-fiancee, found him dead inside Graceland's bathroom.

Doctors said he died of a heart attack that was likely worsened by his addiction to prescription barbiturates. The medications he took the night before his death also contributed to the cause.

In total, he took three packages of pills and painkillers before suffering extreme constipation.
