Ghosts of Hollywood Legends, Part 1

Ghost: Actress Michelle Williams, his ex-fiancé, says she has seen Ledger's spirit on two occasions. The first time, she was awakened at night by eerie noises, then realized her bedroom furniture was being moved around. She saw a shadowy figure, which she admits scared her "half to death." In the second instance, she says the apparition was much more vivid and spoke, telling her he was sorry for not being able to help raise their daughter.

Ghost: Since the accident, there have been several reports of Dean's spectral Porsche speeding along the highway in the vicinity of his tragic death. More famously, there may be a haunting "curse" attached to the car itself. It may have begun before the accident when fellow actors, including Alec Guinness, warned Dean about the car, saying they had a bad feeling about it. Many other accidents and deaths have been documented in connection with the car.

Ghost: Despite the urban legend that Elvis faked his death and is still alive, his ghost has been reported in several locations, including his former home, Graceland in Memphis (now a tourist attraction) and at the Heartbreak Hotel on Elvis Presley Blvd. near Graceland. Elvis's ghost also has been spotted at the Nashville recording studios, where he made some early records, and at the Las Vegas Hilton, where the singer performed in his later years.

Ghost: In his later years, Welles became an imposing figure, often appearing in his trademark black cape and wide-brimmed hat and puffing on a cigar. It's this figure that has been seen in his favorite restaurant, Sweet Lady Jane's in Los Angeles, sitting at the table were he usually dined. Accompanying the apparition, say the staff who have seen it, is the smell of Welles' brand of cigar and even the brandy that he enjoyed.
