Elvis Presley, the undisputed legend of Rock'n'Roll, had a lesser-known passion for extraterrestrial phenomena. Beyond his timeless hits and indelible influence on music, Elvis harbored a fascination for UFOs, a belief rooted in personal experiences and family stories.
According to Larry Geller, the singer’s hairstylist and close friend, Elvis had multiple UFO sightings throughout his life. Perhaps the most intriguing event that sparked this interest occurred on the day of his birth, January 8, 1935. Elvis's father, Vernon Presley, reportedly saw a mysterious blue light in the sky above their small cabin when he stepped outside to smoke a cigarette at two in the morning. Vernon Presley had a sense that something special was happening at that moment.
Larry Geller revealed that he himself witnessed strange phenomena while in Elvis's company. “Once, while driving through the desert, we saw unusual lights moving much too fast to be airplanes. We just concluded that they must be UFOs,” he recounted. Another time, while walking across Elvis's Graceland property, the singer noticed strange lights moving back and forth in a field.
Known for his deep spirituality and interest in metaphysics, Elvis had an eclectic outlook on things. “Although he never had major experiences with extraterrestrials, he certainly believed in them,” said Larry Geller. “He had his feet on the ground but his head in the stars.”
Author Michael C. Luckman, in his book "Alien Rock: The Rock'N'Roll Extraterrestrial Connection," goes even further, claiming that Elvis was contacted telepathically by two extraterrestrials when he was eight years old. According to Luckman, these extraterrestrials gave him a glimpse of his famous future, although Elvis had no idea what it meant at the time.
This mysterious and lesser-known aspect of Elvis Presley adds another layer to the legend of the King of Rock'n'Roll. While his songs and performances captivated millions of fans worldwide, his beliefs and extraterrestrial experiences reveal another side of the man behind the legend, always in search of mystery and the unknown.
