He ain’t nothing but a hound dog..
There may be some who say Elvis still lives, but others admit the truth: The once amazing star of music lore is long gone. But is his spirit?
That is what a paranormal team is looking in to right now.. According to rumor, Elvis Presley’s ghostly spirit may be frequenting the location where the 1960 movie FLAMING STAR was filmed. He was in that film.. It’s not the Buckhorn Motel at 5900 East Main Street in Mesa. This weekend, with this new story, it’s getting a ton of attention…
The Arizona Paranormal Investigations team will conduct a session research at the site.. (What better time of year than October to do that, of course). But this time, the public is invited to attend the 6pm to 9pm ‘investigation’ at the Buckhorn.. persons are being invited by the Mesa Historical Museum–as it is a fundraiser.
Don’t get me wrong. I am sure folks are “all shook up” about the chances that Elvis has not left the building–and I mean absolutely no offense to the Mesa historical group–but the chances of finding anything except a public relations event from this is impossible. It’s meant to be a fundraiser. It’s not meant, in spirit, to find a spirit. That is at least my humble opinion.
As a matter of fact, as the East Valley TRIBUNE reported on this, no one is quite sure when Elvis was EVEN IN THE BUILDING! See this:
“We don’t know exactly when he stayed there, but we’re trying to find out,” said Lisa Anderson, executive director of the Mesa Historical Museum. “But there’s evidence that Elvis likely stayed here at some point; we’re just trying to find out exactly when. We’re going through ledgers to see when he would’ve checked in, but there’s also the possibility that he could’ve checked in under an assumed name.”
So we have a fundraiser, an inability to know when Elvis was even there, and a public ‘investigation’. Ghost hunting can be fun.. but in this situation I can’t help but thinking it’s ALL FUN.
Elvis may be in the building. I doubt we will know after October 20 if he is.
