Please feel free to add any of the loonier theories and rumours that always entertain us about Jim's death and his life after 1971. THE GHOST OF JIM MORRISON As its Xmas we will once again feature Brett Meisner and his truly idiotic assertion that for no sensible reason Jim appeared as a ghost for a photo in Pere Lachaise, allegedly taken by Tom Petty, dressed in the finery of his most hated incarnation...... To this day Brett still maintains this clumsy bit of Photoshop doodling is in fact a true representation. He recently featured in Living TVs documentary on Jim's Ghoast in the Dead Famous series. Even more amazing is there are Doors fans that fall for it.... www.rockandrollbadboy.com/morrison.htmlBit of an odd stance for a ghost to take up dontcha think.....?

The 'Death' of Jim Morrison
Rumors, Myths and Urban Legends Surrounding the 'Death' of Jim Morrison by Thomas Lyttle Reprinted from SECRET AND SUPPRESSED: BANNED IDEAS AND HIDDEN HISTORY
So much has been written and speculated upon surrounding Jim Morrison's life, death and after-death that it is no longer enough to address just the facts. One must now also address the self-perpetuating mythos that has developed and enveloped the facts.
In the late nineteen sixties, Doors' singer Jim Morrison founded a publishing company named Zeppelin Publishing Company with the help of the legal department of Warner Brothers Pictures and Atlantic Records. According to promotions for Zeppelin, "Jim wanted to get his hands on the trademark 'Zeppelin' before Led Zeppelin did. He did this while everyone in America knew who the Doors were, but before the other rock group was well known..." Zeppelin Publishing Company was chartered and put into hibernation for later resurrection.
On July 3, 1971, rock and roll wunderkind James Douglas Morrison was supposedly, reportedly, found dead in a Paris, France apartment he had sub-leased as a writer's studio. His 'wife', Pamela Courson, was the first to discover the body in the bathroom. Jim lay in the bathtub, naked and half-submerged. At first she thought that "Jim was pretending", noticing that he had "recently shaved".
What immediately followed was a series of bizarre and convoluted events, probable conspiracies, strange coincidences and surreal news reports surrounding the death of James Douglas Morrison. Following the death there was a three day news blackout. This was reported on and questioned widely in the media, including articles in The Berkeley Barb, Esquire, the LA Free Press, Sounds, The Baltimore Morning Sun, and many others. Robert Hillburn writing at that time in The LA Times, called his obituary of Morrison "Why Morrison Death News Delay??" igniting a spark that has yet to smolder.
The blackout prevented Morrison's close friends from getting at the principals and witnesses -- and the corpse -- for close inspection. Even Jim's parents and his in-laws were prevented from seeing the corpse.
Pamela had called a local French medical examiner -- Dr. Max Vasille -- to take charge upon finding her husband's body. Dr. Vasille listed the cause of death as "heart failure". Several people viewed the sealed coffin, including Doors manager Bill Siddons, who apparently chose not to view the corpse. Siddons official statement to the press was that "Jim Morrison died of natural causes" and that "the death was peaceful".
Although Jim's death was listed officially as "heart failure", his personal physician, Dr. Derwin, stated to the press that "Jim Morrison was in excellent health before travelling to Paris".
This has recently been complicated by "Queen Mu" writing in the avant garde magazine Mondo 2000 (Summer, 1991). Apparently Mondo 2000 surfaced a rare medical file regarding Jim Morrison's various sexual diseases, and the treatments he was undergoing for them. There was mention of "cancer of the penis...". Queen Mu reports:
"... Hey! No one wants to be expunged from the Book of Life. How many medical workers at UCLA knew that Jim Morrison was being treated for gonorrhea in the Fall of 1970? Knew of the biopsy that confirmed adenoma of the penile urethra -- often consequence to repeated gonorrhea? This is a particularly swift form of cancer whose only alternative may have been radical castration..." -- Queen Mu, pp. 131
No autopsy was performed on Jim Morrison's corpse, as is the usual custom in unusual or suspect deaths in France. Had friends been able to at least see the corpse this might have been done.
According to several reports, a Morrison confidant Alan Ronay alos helped maintain the blackout surrounding the death. Jim Morrison's body was quickly whisked away to be buried at Pere Lachaise. Pere Lachaise is a national French monument and notables like Balzac, Edith Piaf, Moliere, Oscar Wilde and other French countrymen are buried there. Regarding Pere Lachaise: Jim had handpicked the gravesite on several occasions for his impending 'burial'. He had visited the site as late as three days before his 'death'. This is reported in Break On Through and other Morrison biographies.
The media at once showed suspicion regarding Morrison's grave due to the fact that foreigners are rarely buried in a national French monument. Reports like those in the Baltimore Morning Sun questioned how he might have cajoled his way into the cemetary to be buried.
Upon viewing the Pere Lachaise grave site, Doors drummer John Densmore stated: "... the grave is too short!" Doors manager Bill Siddons, when asked about Pere Lachaise, stated: "... how it happened is still not clear to me". He was quoted in Bam!, a rock magazine back in 1981 regarding the controversy. At any rate, Morrison's grave at Pere Lachaise remained unmarked for several months, adding and maintaining a further cloak around the corpse and the evidence.
Only two people saw Jim Morrison's dead body -- his wife Pamela and Dr. Vasille. Dr. Vasille has repeatedly denied interviews and will not answer questions, and Pamela is dead.
The Occult Connection
Besides the "facts" as laid out in countless books, films, interviews and press reports, there exists also a wild and surreal assortment of rumors regarding "what really took place". Many of these rumors center in on the occult, black and white magick, Voudoo, magical Christianity and assorted mystical strangenesses.
In J. Prochniky's biography of Morrison, Break On Through, there is this description of Morrison-based occult rumors:
"... even more incredible were theories that Morrison had somehow been "murdered" through "supernatural means". While Jim was fascinated with the occult, it is quite an assumption that a jealous rival or jilted lover could cause his death in a Paris bathtub by stabbing a Voodoo doll or melting down a Doors album while chanting a curse."
"... Another supernatural-based theory is that Morrison's body had been driven to great extremes by the spirit of the shaman he believed had entered his body as a child on that New Mexico highway. When this spirit or a demon its talents to influence the world, it abandoned Jim and left him a physically wasted and mentally exhausted man who felt betrayed with no desire to go on..." -- Riordan and Prochniky, pp. 466
Another occult theory exists in No One Hear Gets Out Alive by Sugarman and Hopkins. Regarding Jim's death they state:
"... Other theories abounded in Jim's close circle of friends. One had him killed when someone plucked out his eyes with a knife ("to free his soul", as the story had it). Another had a spurned mistress killing him long distance from New York by Witchcraft..." -- Sugarman and Hopkins, pp. 372
Anthropologist Allison Bailey Kennedy even went so far as to tie Morrison in with Orphic mystery cults and the initiatory uses of various spider venoms, which release the "deuende in Gypsy tradition -- the dark soul that burn incandescently like a cicada, immolating itself in fiery passion."
Jim Morrison many times claimed connections to the occult and specifically Voodoo or Voudun philosophy and magick. It was a part of his "path". The moniker "Mr. Mojo Risin'" was an anagram -- a rearrangement of the letters in Jim Morrison. Mojo is a religious term describing shamanic "power icon" or affiliation. The African root Mo refers to the dark or darkness. Mojo is a specific African/Voodoun/Obeah traditional term.
"I think that there are whole regions of images and feelings that are rarely given outlet in daily life... when they do come out, they can take perverse forms" said Morrison circa 1968. He goes on to say that "the shaman is the healer, like the Witch-doctor." Morrison reiterates elsewhere that "we must not forget that the snake or the lizard is identified with the unconscious and the forces of evil..." So says the legendary "Lizard King". "The Lizard King" was one of Jim Morrison's occult code names. He was also called "The Exterminating Angel" in occult circles, according to film critic Gene Youngblood and others.

The 'Death' of Jim Morrison 2
In No One Here Gets Out Alive authors Hopkins and Sugarman recount Morrison drinking blood with Witch-initiate Ingrid Thompson. In certain occult traditions, the use of blood combined with certain sexual acts is reginmen, part of a hidden technology for spell casting. This is especially so in the Tantric Vama Marg (left-handed) rites. It is also a part of Western ritual magic, used in groups like La Couleuvre Noir, the Ordo Templi Orientis, Les Ophitis and others, although it is more uncommon than common in occult work. This sort of sorcery is also used in Voodoo/Voudun Petro rites to summon different Loas (gods and goddesses).
Speaking of the Tantra Vama Marg and the Voodoo Petro, there is this description of death mythology pertinent to Jim Morrison's occult beliefs and possibly his practices. At the very least he would have known of these ideas:
"...but the human form is no means just an empty vessal for the Gods... Rather it is a critical locus where a number of sacred forces may converge. The players are the basic components of man: the z'etiole, the gros bon ange and the ti bon ange, as well as the n'ame of the corpse cadaver. The latter is the body itself, the flesh and the blood. The n'ame is the gift from God and the spirit of the flesh that allows each cell in the body to function. It is the residual presence of the n'ame for example, that gives form to the corpse long after the clinical "death" of the body. The n'ame, upon the "death" of the body begins to pass slowly into the organisms of the soil... A process that takes 18 months to complete..." -- Davis, pp. 99
Remember, Jim Morrison's grave at Pere Lachait remained unmarked for several months so that no one might disturb the corpse and the surrounding site. The whole event from day one was part of a blackout, remember.
According to Tibetan tradtion, something similar is believed to exist so far as naming the componants of the soul and the body. The Vama Marg and especially the Bardo Thodol (the Tibetan Book of the Dead) relate specific death myths concerning what occurs right after someone dies. Writing in Psychedelic Monographs and Essays {out of print 11-06-99}, psychiatrist Dr. Rick Strassman shows that: "... Another model of birth and death, and transformation in which the 49 day interval appears is in the Bardo Thodol... This is the time when the life forces of the deceased -- the energetic tendencies accumulated during "life", "decide on" or gravitate towards or coalesce around the next incarnate form..." -- Strassman, pp. 182
Rock writer Greg Shaw, writing in Bam! and Mojo Navigator interpreted Morrison's song The End along these lines also, stating that each line in the song is a direct quote from the Bardo Thodol. It all "makes perfect sense, if one is familiar with the mystical background," said Shaw.
What are the implications for these ideas in light of the supposed "death" of Jim Morrison? At clinical death, according to the above, the person actually splits up into his or her true parts, formerly connected into a whole being.
According to occult lore, it is possible to ensnare or trap parts of the personality or spirit during this transition. Wade Davis, author of The Serpent and the Rainbow and Passage of Darkness: The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombie, has this to say:
"During initiation, for example the ti bon ange may be extracted from the body and housed in a clay jar called a canari. A canari is a clay jar that has been placed at the inner sanctuary of the hounfour (ritual house)."
"... During the stages directly following the physical death and the first stages of after-death the ti bon ange is extremely vulnerable... Only when it is liberated from the flesh... is it relatively safe..." -- Davis, pp. 102
Is it Jim Morrison's ti bon ange that is at the root of all these occult rumors? Was it his ti bon ange that was bought, sold and then collected on that fateful day in Paris when he "died"...?
That canari has a name. It is called Zeppelin Publishing Company. And the bokor, or Voodoo high priest who cajoled Morrison's ti bon ange into the canari? He runs a company called the B of A Company (or B of A Communications), formerly of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and now of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He owns an active passport and IDs under the name of James Douglas Morrison and claims to actually be the no-so-dead rock star!
Apparitions and Appearances After the "Death"
In the first two years after Jim Morrison's "death" in Paris, many sightings of the rock star were reported. These sightings range from the totally spurious and ridiculous to the reliable and very hard to shake.
The LA Free Press and several wire service reports described someone in 1973 appearing on several occasions in San Francisco. There Morrison was involved with business and banking transactions with the Bank of America of San Francisco. The employee that handled the transactions, Walt Fleischer, confirmed that someone resembling Morrison and using that name was indeed doing business at the Bank of America. He did add that he "was far from sure that this was the 'dead' artist" as Morrison showed no identification. Could this be because a photo ID was already on file at the bank, with the name James Douglas Morrison? Yes, it is still on file.
According to authors Riordan and Prochniky, Morrison was also seen on several occasions hanging out in "unpleasant places" in Los Angeles and wearing Morrison's leather garb, all in black. This was over a period of two years right after the Paris "death". I researched this a bit further and found out that the "unpleasant places" meant notorious gay leather bars, and the underground gay community in Los Angeles.
There were also many rumors that Morrison was also appearing regularly in Louisiana and had made several radio interviews. Again, Prochniky and Riordan reveal that:
"... At an obscure radio station in the Midwest Jim supposedly showed up in the dead of night and did a lengthy interview that explained it all... After the interview he vanished into the darkness again. As you might buess, no recordings of the interview exist and no reliable source remembers hearing the broadcast..."
An LP record called Phantom's Divine Comedy was released also in 1974. This was rumored to be Jim Morrison singing with an anonymous band with the names of "drummer X, bassist Y, and keyboardist Z". The music reportedly resembled Jim Morrison's sound quite well. All this again added and sparked the rumor mills, and stirred public fascination.

The 'Death' of Jim Morrison 3
However, in a 1992 press released from the Zeppelin group, it is revealed that Morrison pal Iggy Pop was actually doing all the singing and helping the "hoax" along. This added more fuel as to how many people were actually involved in maintaining his "death hoax". Up until the 1992 press release, the record company that had released Phantom had refused to divulge the names on the LP, or the singer's name -- which was indeed Iggy Pop.
Regarding all these rumors, Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek stated: "If there was one guy that would have been capable of staging his own death -- getting a phony death certificate and paying off some French doctor... And putting a hundred and fifty pound sack of sand into a coffin and splitting to some point on this planet -- Africa, who knows where -- it is Jim Morrison who would have been able to pull it off."
Jim Morrison's best friend Tom Baker, writing in High Times (June, 1981) had this to say: "I was very tempted to believe the rumors that Jim had faked his own death."
A group of fans actually went so far as to try to get Morrison's dental records, apparently to try to get permission to dig up his body and match the records to the remains. This was immediately blocked both by Morrison's parents and their attorneys -- at least for the time being.
It is known that Jim Morrison had repeatedly planted the seeds which would lead to this sort of speculation -- that he had somehow faked his own death and dropped out into a new identity. At the Fillmore in San Francisco in 1967, Jim started suggesting that he should pull a "death stunt" to bring national press attention onto the band. This was when he came up with the "Mr. Mojo Risin'" anagram which would be used after he "split to Africa" and wished to secretly contact friends.
Morrison also told Danny Sugarman and Jerry Hopkins on more than one occasion that he could see himself "radically changing careers, reappearing as a suited and neck-tied businessman." Jack Holzman's assistant Steve Harris even remembers Jim Morrison asking what might happen if he were to suddenly "die"... how might it affect business, record sales, the press, and would people believe it? With confidant Mary Francis Werebelow Jim "entertained long conversations about how the Disciples had stolen the body of Christ from the crypt, jokingly calling it the "Easter heist," etc."
In a Rolling Stone article for September 17, 1981, author Jerry Hopkins recounts many other Morrison sightings:
"The first one I remember was a beaut... He surfaced in San Francisco shortly after Morrison's death and began cashing checks in Morrison's name. He was not writing bad checks, mind you; it was his money he was spending. It was just that he was dressed as Jim would in his 'leather period', and that he told everyone that he was indeed the 'dead singer'.
"The telephone operator asked: 'will you accept a long distance collect call from Jim Morrison?' It was an interesting conversation..."
"Our conversations were unsettling. He told me to go to Paris and dig up the corpse, but that you would need permission from '12 Catholic Bishops' to do it... A visit to his home was more jarring. There at the end of one room was a Morrison 'shrine', converted with posters, flowers, religious icons -- the works!" -- Sugarman, pp. 33
Years later, I actually got the chance to visit and interview the shrine's owner, who claimed to be Jim Morrison. He told me matter-of-factly details about Hopkins, as well as that other reporters had actually burglarized the shrine in an attempt to get a scoop.
Another surreal sighting involved "Donny" of Baton Rouge, Lousiana. He described Jim Morrison at Morrison's home in 1978. Donny told his friend "Larry" about it, as Larry was trying to break in to the world of rock and roll:
"I remember Larry telling me about the whole wall of one room lined with books all across it. Every one of the books were about Satan, or had something to do with him. He also told me about a large chair that looked like a throne, on which this man sat and watched over his nude children running around... I guess that you can probably guess who that kinky old weird man was -- Jim Morrison, The Lizard King!" -- Sugarman, pp. 33
Another person named Rhea (the Greek goddess of fertility) claimed she was living with Jim Morrison in 1979 with their son "Jesse Blue James". She matter-of-factly claimed that Morrison had "evolved into a state of pure energy... And can materialize and dematerilize at will." She and Jim were also in direct telepathic communication and in "electromagnetic synch".
The Intelligence Connection and JM2
Rock icon Jim Morrison's father was an admiral in the United States Navy, privy to intelligence and counterintelligence information. His name is Steven Morrison. During the first few years surround Jim Morrison's "death" a number of interesting articles surfaced. These cited references showing various intelligence interests either in Morrison's underground activity; his "death" or that intelligence had even masterminded Morrison's death itself! One of the more explicit appeared in the Scandinavian magazine Dagblatte. This article detailed French intelligence efforts to assassinate Jim Morrison in Paris. Author Bernard Wolfe writing The Real Life Death of Jim Morrison for Esquire (June 1972) related the story of:

The 'Death' of Jim Morrison 4
"Sherry, a Pasadena girl who knew Morrison well: "...I couldn't make sense out of the stories in the papers. Suppose he had a heart attack exactly as they reported, is that what he died of? My God, you might as well say that Ernest Hemingway died of "extensive brain damage". If you want to know the cause of Jim's death -- not just the physiology of it -- ask what triggered his heart to stop... And whose finger was on the trigger." -- Wolfe, pp. 106
In the first few years after Morrison's "death" the owner of B of A Communications, named James Douglas Morrison, claimed to be operating as an intelligence agent for a number of domestic and international groups including the CIA, NSA, Interpol, Swedish Inteligence and others. There are also connections between James Douglas Morrison and various occult groups with probable intelligence connections. [Author's note: from here on the B of A Morrison will be referred to as JM2].
The enclosed plates show several documents implicating him in intelligence circles. JM2 also claims to be the "dead" rock star and former singer for The Doors. The new JM2 dropped the old JM1 rock and roll identity to become a "James Bond" wearing the suit and tie that Morrison predicted when he was with The Doors.
This author has in fact seen what appear to be stacks of official-looking documents and letters between the CIA, various government agencies, national news groups like CNN and NBC and JM2, involving what looked like personal meetings, projects and ephemera. Of special interest is that when I viewed parts of the files, all the reports had a paper-thin metallic band affixed to them with colored UPC bar codes. There is no way for me to authenticate the claims of JM2, but everything looked extremely offical and very elaborate.
From about 1972 through 1992 JM2 has left a surreal trail of paper and appearances all over the world. These include letters to and from Louisiana Governor Edwin Edwards and CIA Director William Colby, through the Washington, DC law firm of Colby, Miller and Hanes.
A courtroom transcript which I have seen implicates the FBI and CIA in several coverups regarding JM2's intelligence career. These show that there seems to be a sytematic destruction of files relating to JM2's spy activities. An enclosed plate also shows JM2's Swedish Intelligence ID card, obtained from the FBI through the Freedom of Information Act. Unfortunately the only copy I have is obscured in the facial area, but the ID numbers are intact. Also in my possession are files concerning JM2's rogue financial activities with the Bank of America, and news reports regarding lawsuits by and against JM2 for bank fraud and espionage, which he claims was done under intelligence auspices as part of financial experiments to destabilize foreign currencies and exchange rates.
There also appear to be hundreds if not thousands of miscellaneous files -- both classified and declassified -- regarding one James Douglas Morrison, dated after his "death" in 1971. These also refer to "WBC", a nom de plume of JM2. These look like real letters, documents, and court transcripts involving intelligence circles. These involve the CIA, Danish intelligence, and others. There is also an active passport and banking IDs under the name James Douglas Morrison.
Is this all for real or is this an elaborate hoax? It is not the scope of this work to determine the truth -- or lack of truth -- or the consequences of such activities. The important thing to note for the sake of this study is that someone or some group are actively pursuing and setting up a mass "urban legend" regarding James Morrison. They are painstakingly documenting it also. Whether this is a hoax or not is not as important as the fact that a lot of official-looking information is being generated surrounding the myth and legendry of Jim Morrison, his life and his supposed "death".
Just why might this be?
Multiple Morrisons
Like the "multiple Oswald" theories of Kennedy assassination buffs, there also exist rumors and urban legends describing the "multiple Morrison" theory.
The idea that Jim Morrison was in fact several different people and actors, or intelligence agents has been going on for some time. Besides the "Morrison" singing on the Phantom (now shown to be Iggy Pop) there also exist rumors that a Louisiana banker as well as Richard Tanguay -- a close friend of Mick Jagger -- perpetuated the hoax. Even High Times ran and old news story about someone claiming to be Jim Morrison (post 1971) running for governor of Louisiana! Supposedly Richard Tanguay (related to vaudeville legend Eva Tanguay) took the Morrison persona on, on several occasions, and even sang with The Doors when they toured Europe with the Rolling Stones. Is this possible?
In fact JM2 has claimed publicly that there have been numerous James Douglas Morrisons, and that they all knew one another and met from time to time to work it all out. The impersonations were part of CIA sociological experiments like Artichoke or MK-ULTRA.
It is impossible to substantiate wild stories like this. But the fact that there are people and groups out there making these claims in a big way and perpetuating "urban legends" about Jim Morrison is a curiosity in itself... And funny, in a dark sort of way. by Thomas Lyttle

Jim Morrison's Corpse Faces Rape Charge By Johnny Dupe Oct 31, 2003, 09:30 Paris, France - A California woman in Paris to visit the grave of Jim Morrison has filed charges against the deceased singer, accusing him of rape. Morrison is being held in a Paris jail awaiting an upcoming court battle which should cause a media frenzy. 53-year-old Martha Siedel, who's name is being kept confidential, claims Morrison forced her to perform various sex acts on him while he "played dead". Martha Siedel's attorney, Matthew Gates, made a brief statement to the press today. "Being dead for 30 years does NOT let a person off the hook when it comes to the law. Even a rotting 60's rock star is accountable for his actions, regardless if he's an alledged corpse with no visible penis." Renowned lawyer Johnnie Cochran will once again take on the challenge of defending a celebrity. When asked whether being a charismatic rock star was an advantage or disadvantage in this case, he responded, "Are you high on crack? The man's DEAD!" "My client has no pulse," continued Cochran. "Man with no pulse got no place being put on trial. Hell, the man has no FACE. He's got no face and they've got no case. Lemme tell you, my man Morrison just didn't do it. When you dead, you don't get head!" GlossyNews.com 2003 For a 60-year-old corpse of a drug-bloated hippy rock star, Morrison appeared surprisingly in shape. However, he did not respond to reporters questions regarding his sexual health.

Jim Morrison's Leg "I stole Oscar Wilde's cock you know?" said Jamie. "No you didn't," I said. "You just told me you'd never done this before." "I haven't. But you know that massive statue of an angel?" My shoulders ached as the spade pushed into the ground once more. It only took a month of working in the Pere Lachaise to get this far. Paris' most famous cemetery, the resting place of such luminaries as Edith Piaf and Oscar Wilde had eagerly taken me on. In fact such an impression had been made I felt confident my employers would forgive the minor indiscretion currently being perpetrated. I put down the spade as I reached softer soil, took off my cap, wiped the sweat from my brow and tossed the useless garment onto the tombstone of the grave I was digging up. "Please tell me that you didn't reduce one of history's finest literary minds to the level of a nob gag…" I trailed off, knowing only too well where this conversation was going. "That's right! I got in here, chiseled it off and two days later I sold it on eBay." Jamie took another swig from the bottle of wine that seemed to permanently reside in his overall pocket. The Pere Lachaise stretched out around us like an orchestra, the arrondissement's cutting through the pit with great sweeps separating the violinist from the cellist and the famous from the infamous. "Shut up and keep digging," I launched the shovel into the earth and with a crack that echoed in the purple night I struck a rock. The handle sheared, leaving it half in my hand and half wedged into the ground, jutting out like some sort of warning to passing vampires. "Ah shit!" Jamie started laughing. "For God's sake shut up. I'm going to have to go and get another one now." "At this time of night?" "Yes. At this time of night. Listen, I'll go to the gatehouse and grab one from the gardener's supplies. I'm sure I've got the keys in my bag." Hauling myself out of the pit we had created, the loose soil around the edges crumbling back down and making more work for us, I stared for a moment at Jamie down there as he continued digging before scrabbling in my holdall. "Keep at it, I'll be back as soon as I can." Walking away, the sound of Jamie whistling some tuneless dirge he had picked up in the café down the street when we met earlier grated. The notes hung in the air like my breath. Staring too long at middle-C, I stumbled forward, tripping on something hard underfoot. The world rushed towards me but I reached out and stopped myself at the last moment. With a clatter the contents of my top pocket spilled onto the ground. I got up, reached forward and scooped the decrepit old harmonica into my cold hand. I remembered it had been silver once but the corroded turd that squatted in my palm was nothing more than a tarnished reminder of my father's wasted life. My father; the dreamer, the failed musician, the man who had tried out for The Doors but had been told in no uncertain terms by Jim Morrison himself that he was next to useless. I had taken it from my father's house the day of his funeral. The door to the gatehouse was typical of everything about the Pere Lachaise, it was grandiose whilst managing somehow to look ramshackle. I turned the key and the familiar grinding of the gears I had heard every morning since starting work here rang out. I tried to slip inside, hiding behind my shadow but the door had other ideas, crying out into the night, it's ancient wood creaking with resentment. It was surprisingly cold inside, my feet crunched across the flagstones as I moved swiftly through the building. It didn't take me long to locate a new spade but as I was about to make my way back downstairs a noise stopped me in my tracks. The door downstairs, the one I had carefully locked behind me was screeching again, the rusted hinges echoing throughout the gatehouse. I stood, panting like a winded saxophonist, staring at the light that had blinked into life from downstairs. It couldn't be Jamie, he didn't have a key. My ears burned hot as the blood rushed to them and turned the footsteps that echoed from downstairs into a pounding drum in my head. I had to hide. They couldn't find me. Not now. It wasn't supposed to happen this way. I moved quickly and silently as the footsteps downstairs were joined by a man's voice. It was definitely getting louder, moving upstairs towards me. A second later and I was in the tool cupboard, hastily pulling the door closed behind me and trying not to knock over the spades and hoes inside. My breath had quickened its tempo, moving to staccato, the vapour more obvious in the moonlit room. I pushed myself further back into the cupboard, clutching the harmonica hard in my hand. The door to the room swung open and the light flicked on as the velvet walls of my hiding place began to close in. * "Of course I'll help you," Jamie had said at the top of his voice. "Please shhhhh," I gestured to all the other people in the café.<br> "They're all fucking French - no-one understands a word we're saying. Do you?" he stood up and addressed the café as a whole, squinting at the sun dancing in through the bay windows. "Does anyone here speak English?" One or two hands went up, some words were muttered and then a more were tentatively pushed into the air. After a few seconds the café wasn’t visible for raised hands. "Ah. Okay then let's go. So what was it that you wanted to tell me that was so secret anyway?" Jamie may have been lacking a lot of traits but dependability certainly wasn't one of them and it was this something I was relying on for the task I was about to sign him up for. "You see Jamie," I said as the door of the café shut behind us. "They've always been the same if you ask me," he interrupted.

"There's this thing I've been thinking about doing."
"All eating their fucking croissants and being so bloody aloof."
"I think it's the only way I can start to move forward as a musician."
"Music? Don't talk to me about music - all they bloody listen to is that sodding Edith Piaf…"
"Well not just as a musician as a person as well."
"I tell you what Dan if I ever get the chance I'm gonna take a piss on that woman's grave."
"I'm sure that will help," I snapped. "Now listen I need your help."
And so I told him. I mean I glossed over some of it. Made it sound like the sort of student prank we used to play but for the most part I told him the truth. How I wanted to go to the Pere Lachaise and pay the late Jim Morrison a visit. How I wanted to take his femur and have it made into a trumpet.
"You are a good trumpet player," Jamie nodded in agreement.
"It's a Tibetan thing. Apparently their sound is so deep it has a resonance you just can't imagine."
"I can imagine."
"No, it’s not just that."
There was a pause and we looked at each other for a moment.
"It’s your Dad isn't it?"
I nodded.
"Anything to get one over on these Frenchies mate," he said.
"Jamie, you've lived here for eight years and your fiancée is French. Please shut up."

Back in the incendiary void of the cupboard things weren't going quite so well. We didn't have a contingency plan for getting caught.
"Yeah, I told you," said Gerry, one of my co-workers. "I've just got to find my house keys and then I'll pick you up."
Footsteps clattered by, circling the room, with Gerry occasionally pausing to rummage in a bag or box. I tried to crane my neck, to see if the light that was breaking in illuminated any keys around me.
"No sweetie, I really mean it. Of course I'm not with another woman, that's ridiculous."
It was only a matter of seconds before he would be discovered. If only I hadn't hidden in the cupboard. At least then I could have got away with pretending I had fallen asleep.
"I'll be right over as soon as I - aha!"
I waited, not daring to breath, to move or even blink. I stared at the crack in the door.
"Yes. Oui. Oui. C'est ça ma petite lapin."
The light went out, the door shut and I exhaled.
*
"Where the hell have you been?"
I waved the new spade at him and he waved his wine at me in return.
"I decided to stop."
"What?" I shouted. "We haven't got time for you to stop!"
"Calm down. I had to stop for two reasons. Firstly because I needed a piss."
"Oh you didn't," I asked, scared of the response but knowing it all the same. "Please tell me you didn't…"
"I did," he grinned. "I pissed on Edith Piaf's grave!"
"Jamie! Do you have any idea how disrespectful that is?"
"And secondly, cos I think we're nearly there."
"Shit! Are you serious?"
I scrambled into the grave, shovel in hand and started digging. Within a matter of minutes my spade met with wooden resistance.
"This is it," I whispered to Jamie who was hovering over the grave-mouth.
Soon we had cleared the top of the casket and the plaque, although tarnished, bore the Lizard King's name.
The crowbar slid easily into my hands as I braced myself against the grave's sides and began levering at the head of the coffin. My hands felt clammy as the wood cracked and splintered, giving way easily to the pressure.
"This is it! This really is it!"
"Open the bloody coffin already and let's get out of here," said Jamie. "Someone's bound to come along eventually you know."
The lid crackled open, gasses hissing out as the seal that had been made decades earlier was broken.
"Well? Have you got it?"
I hoisted the lid to one side.
"Jamie," I said. "I think we have a problem."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, it seems he's escaped."
"Shit, you mean someone has beaten us to it?" Jamie passed me a torch and I shone it into the vacant coffin.
"No, I mean that I don't think he was ever…"
I trailed off as the torch glanced upon a small white piece of paper lying halfway down the length of the coffin. Reaching out, I picked it up. It was a business card. On it was printed an address in Paris and three words.
James Douglas Morrison.
It was over and I knew it. The flashlight performed a brief diminuendo over the empty casket as I gathered together what little evidence was left. I put the business card in my pocket and as the pair of us walked away I took out the harmonica, staring at its rust-encrusted reeds in the pre-dawn light.
I wiped it on my sleeve and then, after a moment put it to my lips and exhaled, inhaled, exhaled. It sounded awful but it reminded me of a Bob Dylan song I couldn't remember the name of.
"Sounds like Chas and Dave that," said Jamie. "I miss Chas and Dave." Adam Maxwell 2004

A conversation with Mr Mojo from beyond the grave...
Psychic Carmen Rogers has a unique insight on the views of James Douglas Morrison as she was able to chat with him in a London Hotel during the summer of 1991 about life, love and such mundane matters as Oliver Stone’s Doors masterpiece for Select Magazine. Claiming never to have heard of the deceased singer and with one hand holding a fag and the other a picture of The Lizard King just before he died the conversation went something like this…….
Fans believe the new headstone to be six feet away from where he is actually buried. (Select) “It’s certainly not where it was. The physical body has been shifted. They’ve not dug him up but the headstone is in the wrong place.” (Carmen) So keeping vigil at the grave is pointless? “He’s not there! There were only a few there when he was buried. He seems a bit miffed at that. It seemed to have been done hurriedly.
He died in the dark. He’d been to a party and there was a row so he’d gone home in a very depressed state because he was dropping out of the scene ...his voice going or business troubles within the band. He’d a store of drugs available he had also been drinking. I wouldn’t call it a designer drug but it was something readily available at the time. He had taken both. ” Does he have any reservations about drug taking rock stars? “I immediately sense him saying ‘It’s a mugs game’. He was suffering from bad headaches at the time possibly the start of a brain tumour. I sense he wasn’t a usual drug taker so people were surprised he died like that. You wouldn’t see him bombed out of his head when working! I feel he took the drugs on the quiet to get rid of the pain and get some sleep. He went too far”. Is he a worthy target for youth worship then? “No! They get the wrong idea about what is worthwhile. He didn’t expect to be offering anything of note to young people today. He had some worthy lyrics but as a person he’d come to realise he had feet of clay.”<br>Has he a view on the movie? “He’s not sure about the film. He feels it’s not showing him warts and all. They may have omitted something relating to his marriage. It’s not portrayed as it was. He had been contemplating a second marriage which was not brought out in the film. The film romanticised him and he really was not an easy person to get on with.”<br>Has he guided Oliver Stone in the making of the movie? “He’s been interested. Oliver Stone has been very sensitive toward him. He was such a megalomaniac it seems strange he would want a ‘warts and all’ kind of movie! “He should be shown as he was otherwise he feels you won’t see how great he was. He felt the music was great, you can’t create that if you're just a romantic.” One things many fans would like to know would have to be is he happy? “He’s got a lot of things to work out. He wants to try to help those people whom he hurt, to even things up to the best of his ability. He hurt members of the band on occasion physically. He regrets the influence he had on those around him, that he hurt them because they couldn’t give him all he wanted. He could have treated them better.”<br>What is his view of the current music scene? “He’s interested in the bit between rock and heavy metal where rock is coming up with a difference the combination of rock and dance.”<br>Does he like The Stone Roses? “ He likes the experimentation going on there.” Is it frustrating where he is? “ It can be, particularly when he’s trying to get his ideas through. Someone was helping him with his lyrics and his poetry. He’s trying to inspire someone now it may be there’s someone reminiscent of his particular style. If this does show up (Bono the jigs up!! ED.) you’ll know he’s influencing this person in a particular way. How did he feel about being the soundtrack to events such as Vietnam which culminated in ‘The End’ being used for the Coppola film ‘Apocalypse Now’. “He admits now that he was jumping onto the bandwagon a little. As part of the 60’s generation it was the ‘thing to do’ at the time.” Many Doors fans would love to know whether he hangs out with other dead rock stars? “He and Elvis do link up from time to time.. One can make music in the next sphere with energy. When you’re playing a guitar it’s the vibration of the acoustics that make the sound and the same applies there. They're experimenting with sound and light. Jim only seemed a disturbed personality because that was the nature of the business then. If you didn’t appear to be a nutter you didn’t get anywhere (which explains nicely why Ken Dodd did so well in the 60’s ED) a lot of it was hype. He may have appeared to be a megalomaniac but he was just the one who said what he was going to do and to hell with anyone else.”<br>What does Jim look like there? “Once you lose your physical body you still have your mind and things become a lot clearer when not bogged down by physical problems. You exist in the etheric body which has the same shape as in life. You’ll probably look younger. He is looking how he remembers himself best. He initially was a nice lad until he got caught up in the music business.”<br>Is he pleased we are doing this? “He said this is as good a time as any.”<br>(The week of the movies release in the UK. ED) Has he a message for the other Doors? “Keep them closed!”. Thanks both of you for your time ! No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn…..

MIND CONTROL IN THE FIELD OF ART by Per Sewen - Illuminati News
Hollywood and the music industry are big mind control centers, used by the Illuminati to influence us in the ways that suit their goals. We have seen many great artists come and go through the years and as we think about it, they have influenced us quite a lot in different ways. We all have our favorites, who many of us "look up to" and admire. They are a big part of the childrens and teenagers lives. I have covered parts of the Hollywood business in other articles, but just as interesting is the music industry.
In the book by Fritz Springmeier and Cisco Wheeler, The Illuminati Formula Used to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Controlled Slave, the music industry (and the Country music in special) is loaded with artists who work as mind control programmers and many of them are mind control slaves with split personalities. They mention among many others Kris Kristofferson, Jerry Lee Lewis and Willie Nelson as being programmers, working for the Illuminati. And many artists are themselves programmed to be able to act in a way the Illuminati wants, to "spread the message".
The rock industry programming started with Elvis Presley, who very likely was a programmed slave and who's programmer was his manager, Col. Tom Parker. The below excerpt is from the above book by Springmeier/Wheeler, chapter 12:
"Many of the movies and shows use Monarch slaves as actors & performers: such as Rosanne Barr, Bette Mittler, Marilyn Monroe, Loretta Lynn, Crystal Gayle and possibly Wayne Newton (a child singing protege, who never wrote a check for himself in his life). They also use lots of slave handlers such as Frank Sinatra, Peter Lawford, & Bob Hope. And occasionally they use programmers such as Anton LaVey, Jerry Lee Lewis. Cisco, the co-author of this book, while in the Illuminati, was given repeated reason to believe that Elvis Presley was also a Multiple programmed by the Illuminati. We know that at times he went by code names, one which is publicly known was John Burrows. His group, called the Memphis Mafia, have talked about his ability to go into altered states of consciousness, even seem dead. Recently, another Illuminati slave, also stated that Elvis was an Illuminati slave. Cisco points out that Elvis’ twin brother was dead at his birth, and that Elvis knew that this gave him double spiritual power (according to Illuminati beliefs). The Illuminati will often kill a twin, so that the other will get the power of two souls. From what we understand, Elvis Presley’s handler/programmer was a Col. Tom Parker. Elvis belonged to a team of 4 Illuminati men. Elvis is publicly known to have studied yoga, numerology, drugs, and received some new age spiritual training in an academy overlooking Pasadena, CA. He was an active member in the Theosophical Society. After Elvis Presley supposedly died, the Sun International Corp. came out with an Elvis Presley album called Orion, with the winged-sun-disk on its cover. The winged-sun-disk is an important Egyptian magical symbol used by the OTO, Theosophical Society etc. Mae Boren Axton, known as the Grand Dame of Nashville, played a pivotal role in Elvis Presley’s life. Elvis & the Beatles were chosen by the Illuminati to introduce rock music to the United States. There is no doubt about Elvis’ and the Beatles’ musical talent. Elvis’ close friend Wayne Newton is highly suspected as also being a slave. Elvis worked with Burt Reynolds and Jerry Lee Lewis who also connect in with the Illuminati’s mind-control operations. The authors are puzzled why Elvis’ grave, which had millions of dollars spent on its security, has his name misspelled? We are also puzzled why Elvis, who repeatedly stated he wanted to be buried beside his mother, is buried beside his father, who he privately stated wasn’t even his real father. Why has no one ever tried to collect insurance on Elvis’ death? Once again, it seems, the front stories that the public hears are full of inconsistencies. We believe that some people in the Illuminati know the true story about Elvis Presley. For sure Elvis’ mysterious mind-control programmer/handler Col. Tom Parker would know."
In Monarch Programming, the use of mirrors is a basic important tool for to make split multiple personalities. The mental mirrors, which are programmed into the victim, create thousands of alters (artificial personalities), which then can be programmed in whatever way the Illuminati programmer wants. Here are some more excerpts from the same book with regards to mirrors:
"The child must learn to match identical items very early--even before they can speak. This is so they will be able to build mirror images into their mind. All the senses are trained for building the mirror images; for instance such as silks and cottons can be used for the sense of touch" Chapter 1 page 12.
"The elements that make up who a person is--i.e. personality elements such as memories, are fractured. These fragments have in turn often been built up into full-blown personalities with all the elements of full-blown personalities. There is no "real" person, just as if you smash a mirror into a thousand pieces, there is no single piece that is the "real" original mirror but rather simply fragments that can in turn operate as mirrors. However, there is still a primal self. Early splits are led to believe they are the core" Chapter 1 page 28.
"Children are set in front of circus mirrors that make them taller or smaller for programming. They are set in front of mirrors which duplicate their image." Chapter 4 page 64.
"pg. 90 Book 3 Ozma of Oz, "Princess Langwidere's sitting-room was panelled with great mirrors, which reached from the ceiling to the floor; also the ceiling was composed of mirrors, and the floor was of polished silver that reflected every object upon it. So when Langwidere sat in her easy chair and played soft melodies upon her mandolin, her form was mirrored hundreds of times, in walls, and ceilings and floor, and whichever way..." This is the mirror programming that has been done to so many victims! Chapter 5 page 112.
"Mirrors, and lots of them, are important in occult programming because they make images. They create so many internal images one doesn’t know which way to go " Chapter 10.

"The following format the words in italic are direct quotes from Lena Pepitone’s book which is entitled Marilyn Monroe Confidential An Intimate Personal Account, NY: Simon & Schuster, 1979.
7 p.16- "Floor-to-ceiling mirrors were everywhere. Even the dining alcove at the rear of the living room had a table with a mirrored top. All these mirrors didn ‘t cheer things up." In programming Monarch slaves, mirrors are used a great deal. Within the Monarch slave’s mind, countless mirror images are made. The slave sees thousands of mirrors everywhere in their mind. Because Marilyn was so stripped of any personal identity, she decorated her house as her mind looked on the inside--full of mirrors. Although other Monarchs may have some desires to decorate with mirrors, Marilyn is the most extreme case I know of filling one’s house full of mirrors" Chapter 12.
With regards to this, it's interesting to read the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix, especially from a song called "Room full of mirrors". The lyrics go:
"I USED TO LIVE IN A ROOM FULL OF MIRRORS ALL I COULD SEE WAS ME WELL I TOOK MY SPIRIT AND I CRASHED MY MIRRORS NOW THE WHOLE WORLD IS HERE FOR ME TO SEE I'VE GOT A WHOLE WORLD THAT'S HERE FOR ME TO SEE NOW I'M SEARCHING FOR MY LOVE TO BE
BROKEN GLASS WAS FALLING IN MY BRAIN CUTTIN' AND SCREAMIN' AND CRYING IN MY HEAD BROKEN GLASS WAS FALLING IN MY BRAIN IT USED TO FALL ON MY DREAMS AND CUT ME IN MY BED IT USED TO FALL ON MY DREAMS AND CUT ME IN MY BED I SAID MAKING LOVE WAS STRANGE IN MY BED" Many rock musicians died around the same time: Brian Jones (Rolling Stones) who drowned in his pool(!); Mama Cass (The Mamas and the Papas); Jimi Hendrix; Janis Joplin; Jim Morrison (The Doors) and more. Cause of death was often overdosing drugs or as with the case of Jim Morrison, he died from heart failure in his bath tub(!). The story goes that Jim Morrison was involved in Project Monarch as well, due to Fritz Springmeier.
I once read a biography on Jimi Hendrix, where it said that he didn't want to take the drugs, but was forced to do so by his manager(!). He soon became addicted. Drugs are heavily used in mind control. Seems like a common denominator that the artists are controlled and maybe programmed by their managers to create a certain effect upon the society. When Hendrix and Joplin were dead, Jim Morrison's manager told him that he, Jim, probably was the next in line ...
Then Jim Morrison left the Doors and moved to France - maybe trying to escape from the insanity around him. But most likely, the Illuminati followed him and eliminated him. Could it have been a ritual murder? Was Jim more valuable to the Illuminati dead than alive? It seems like Jim had withdrawn from his band on the top of his career, probably to the dislike of his "superiors". Was he ritually murdered so he could live on as a myth? His girlfriend at the time was very confused after Jim's death (she was a heroinist as well) and some researchers suspect that she killed him. Was she programmed to do so? Her reactions after Jim's death to her own death a few years later is suspiciously similar to this of a Monarch slave. Her death is suspicious as well and may not have been "natural". Did she start remembering???
Bob Dylan, one of our most admired song composers and poets, is tightly connected to Kris Kristofferson, who is a programmer with regards to Cisco Wheeler and Fritz Springmeier. In the 80's he also, after had become a Christian, was closely related to Billy Graham, who is a programmer as well and a 33rd degree Mason. Dylan's friends and associates have often witnessed how he shifts from one personality to another, though I have seen no data on him being a victim of mind control. If you as a reader have more data on Dylan, please e-mail me on truthseeker@post.netlink.se .
It is possible that those musicians became dangerous to the Illuminati and therefore were killed. If they don't serve the purpose, they are useless to them and potentially dangerous, as they may reveal the secrets if they start to remember ...
It's also known, thanks to former Illuminati programmed slaves who have succeeded to escape, that the Illuminati can pick a child, check for his/her talents, use that part for programming and create geniuses. This is by the way NASA works. Their computer programs are so extremely advanced and difficult to learn, that the computer programmers and users must have a photographic memory to be able to remember the programs. This is done by scarring the brain stem of the victim, an action which is known to create photographic memory - IF the operation is successful, otherwise the victim may die. Those people, who have had their brain stem scarred, are then taught by NASA how to control the computers.
There are also other methods to create geniuses out of talents, and the Programmers use them all the time within the arts, military, science etc.
Another typical thing, which is related to fine arts. A few years ago there was a documentary in Swedish Television about a famous young New York "painter", who sat bragging over glasses of whiskey about his art. Then he showed the viewers his gallery. Well in there, you could see about twenty painters creating HIS paintings(!). He looked at the finished ones and accepted them. Then he put HIS signature on the paintings, though he never himself created anything on it. Later he sold one of them for around $800.000. The real painters, who had created his work were nothing more than slave labour and had a lousy pay.
This is an effect of the OTO-connected Andy Warholl, who finally destroyed fine art in the 60's with his so called pop-art. He said in an interview that "fine art (painting) is dead - this is the art of the New Era" (refering to his own art). He was a big puppet for the Illuminati Elite. By degrading the art they also degrade the human population.
Picasso once said something to the effect that to be able to create a good "alternative" artform, you basically must be an exellent painter in a traditional way. He was sooo right, and if you look at his early works, you can see he was excellent in traditional painting. But his wise words seem to be forgotten and buried, unfortunately ...
The Illuminati Elite has a total understanding of the brain, and it's scary to know what they are able to do and ARE doing ...

Doors Fans Stay at Jim's Fans flock to Morrison's L.A. apartment Jim Morrison may have died nearly thirty-five years ago, but now you can stay at his place any time you like. The owner of the Los Angeles apartment where the Doors singer lived with longtime girlfriend Pamela Courson before moving to Paris in 1971 (where he would be found dead later that year) is allowing fans to relive a piece of rock history for $200 a night, or $1000 for a week.
When Cheri Woods purchased the six-unit apartment complex at 8216 Norton Avenue (the address listed on Morrison's death certificate), her broker mentioned that a famous rock star had lived there, but she didn't learn who that was until after taking possession. Woods, an infamous madam to Hollywood celebrities in the Eighties who has spent time on death row, wasn't a Doors fan herself, but thought Morrison was "cute." However, when fans came knocking to catch a glimpse of the Lizard King's old digs, she decided to capitalize on her good fortune. In addition to booking rooms, she also sells "Doors dirt" (Ziploc bags of soil from the rear of the property) through her Web site (cheriwoods.com).
"A lot of fans come," says Woods' daughter, Tiana. "Some crazy ones." Woods installed a fence with an electric gate around the property to keep out the (non-paying) curious. A warning sign is mounted on the front of the building, while another declares this to be the "Last U.S. home of Jim Morrison." Fans who don't want to stay overnight can shell out $9.95 for self-guided tours. They get access to the room, past a small, locked gate and a concrete lizard and up a flight of stairs.
The "Welcome" mat outside the front door features ladybugs and butterflies, while inside are well-worn hardwood floors (Jim walked here!). Doors posters hang in both the living room and the dining room, and a curtain of beads separates the kitchen from the dining room.
Inside the kitchen are a decades-old refrigerator and stove, most likely the very same ones that were there in Morrison's day, while the living room is furnished with a black leather sofa recliner and a mini-stereo loaded with Doors music. The master bedroom has tan, sponged walls and a wrought-iron bed, while the smaller, second bedroom has a tiny bed and walls that have been sponged green. Not exactly rock-star grandeur.
Woods and her daughter play Doors music when people show up to take the tour. And guests who rent the room can sign the guestbook and record their experiences. "Unreal," one recent visitor writes. "No words can describe this. Taking the same steps as Jim. 3:15 a.m. and I'm tanked."
In 1971, Morrison gave Rolling Stone his final U.S. interview at the complex. "I think there's a certain moment when you're right in time with your audience, and then you both grow out of it and you both have to realize it," Morrison told Rolling Stone. "It's not that you've outgrown your audience; it has to go on to something else."
While Woods' clientele is composed of people who want to visit Morrison's last U.S. stop before his untimely death, Woods herself believes the rocker is still among us. She is convinced that he faked his death -- with the help of the FBI -- and is alive and well.

Jim Morrison faked his own death The conspiracy theorists who insist Doors frontman Jim Morrison is still alive and kickin' it up somewhere in Mexico have plenty to fuel their suspicions. For starters, only Morrison's wife Pamela and French physician Dr. Vasille saw the corpse after the rock star was found dead in his bathtub on July 3, 1971. And if the ensuing media blackout, the lack of an autopsy (customary for all suspect deaths in France) and Morrison's many occult connections weren't enough, the singer apparently visited his grave sight only three days before his untimely death.
