Who better than the knowledgeable Miguel Conner to rip the lid off the esoteric roots of
these modern mysteries of Rock and its King? There have been tens of thousands of books
written about Elvis and his lasting magic, but none that truly cut to the core of the King’s
enduring appeal like this one!

Chris KnowlesAuthor of The Secret History of Rock ‘n’ Roll

This kind of book shakes one to the core and gets one to see that things are not what they seem to be, especially with the King of rock ’n’ roll. Everything we thought we knew, we didn’t. The truth is way, way stranger.

Jeffrey J. KripalAuthor of How to Think Impossibly and Professor of Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University

Miguel knows how to peer into overlooked corners, unearth vital references, and follow trails of
meaning that other historians are unaware even exist. In plumbing Elvis’s spiritual search, the
author uncovers all of our own and finally discovers why Elvis means so much.

AMERICA’S MAGICIAN

Elvis Presley, the most successful solo artist in history and an emblematic cultural figure of the Western world, has been widely perceived as a conservative Southerner Christian. However, the truth about the man has been missed.

Elvis was a profound mystic, occultist, and shaman. Beginning with the unusual circumstances of his birth—including his stillborn twin brother, Jesse—Conner traces the diverse thread of mysticism that runs through Elvis Presley’s life, drawing on firsthand accounts from the people closest to him, including his wife, Priscilla, friends and family, the Memphis Mafia, and his spiritual advisors.

Elvis studied seminal nineteenth- and twentieth-century occultists, including H. P. Blavatsky, Manly P. Hall, G. I. Gurdjieff, and P. D. Ouspensky, and was a devotee of Indian yogi Paramahansa Yogananda. Conner argues that Elvis was well-versed in esoteric practices including sex magic, meditation, astrology, and numerology and had a deep familiarity with Kabbalah, Gnosticism, Theosophy, and Eastern traditions. He also reveals how Elvis was a natural healer, telekinetic, psychic, and astral traveler who had significant mystical experiences and UFO encounters. Looking at the conspiratorial and paranormal aspects of Elvis’s life, the author explores the “Elvis visitations” that have occurred since the King’s ostensible death and the general high weirdness of his life. As Conner convincingly argues, Elvis was not just a one-of-a-kind rock-and-roller. He was the greatest magician America ever produced and a key player in transforming Western culture forever.

The public never knew the complexity of Elvis, who spent seven years with members of the Memphis Mafia. If you want a sneak peek behind the cape, you must step inside this book. Once again, Elvis doesn’t disappoint his audience.

This is the best book about Elvis I have ever read. Enchanting, touching, and profoundly illuminating, The Occult Elvis comes closer than any other book to capturing the magic and mystery of this elusive genius.
