Before he became famous, Elvis Presley moved with his extended family from Tupelo, Mississippi where he was born to Memphis, Tennessee where he would live for the rest of his short life. His ex-wife Priscilla and daughter Lisa Marie are well known around the world, but there are other close family members still other there, including one from that move who is still alive today. One of them is Billy Smith, the last surviving original Memphis Mafia member.
Billy knew Elvis incredibly personally, often being invited up to his bedroom at Graceland to hang out, watch movies and talk about all kinds of topics, especially the spiritual and paranormal.
His cousin was one of the last people to see The King alive, having played racquetball with him a few hours before he died of a heart attack on August 16, 1977.
He remembered drying Elvis’ hair for him up in the bathroom where he would perish around lunchtime that day. The star was full of hope for the future.
Billy’s sons Joey and Danny grew up at Graceland as childhood friends of Lisa Marie and knew Elvis well.
The latter had always hoped he’d grow up to be invited to become a Memphis Mafia member and bodyguard to his cousin The King, but sadly the star’s life was cut short.
What’s particularly spooky though is Danny continues to have the same strange and very emotional dream about the late music icon and it involves his parents.
In a new video on his Memphis Mafia Kid channel, he said: “I’ve had this dream on and off now many, many times and it’s the same dream. We’re actually on tour and Elvis is getting ready to do a show and he’s looking for Mom and Daddy.”

Danny has also shared how he believes Elvis’ ghost may have visited him to tell him everything is alright.
Additionally, his father Billy knew it was time to leave Graceland when he sensed that The King was calling him from upstairs in the mansion where he died.
He recalled: “I’d get dressed and I’d go out to Graceland and for some reason I always looked up at his office window because I felt like he was calling me and he was looking out the window. Oh boy that…that…got to me.”
