Report: Ghost of Prince Rogers Nelson Haunts Paisley Park MansionOctober 6, 2016 Paisley Park Studios singer Prince Rogers Nelson home and recording studio, opened to the public but only for three days. It was a test to see if the place meets local standards for traffic, parking and environmental degradation. People who've seen it get a strange sense the singer knew it was about to open, and prepared Prince's paisley palace to be opened to the public. "Even his little red corvette is still there," mused one reporter, from ET Online. "He had a vision, and he finished it." Prince's Sexually ambiguous symbol was very visible in the foyer as one entered. A bedroom is bathed in purple light. Prince would have loved it. He expressed several times to his sister his desire to invite the public into the building after his death, which of course occurred much earlier than anyone expected. The singer was only 56 when he died on April 21, 2016, in an elevator at the Paisley Park studio which doubled as his residence. In life, Prince had many fans and no doubt deserved many more. But to be honest many people found something creepy about the diminutive singer when he was alive. Since his death, staff have whispered that the singers spirit still inhabits Paisley Park. There have been late night sightings and unexplainable noises. And after all, what did The Artist mean when he wrote these immortal words? Was it some sort of prediction or precognition?
Dearly beloved, We are gathered here today To get through this thing called life. Electric word life. It means forever and that's a mighty long time But I'm here to tell you, There's something else. The afterworld! A world of never ending happiness You can always see the sun, day or night
Where else would Prince, the dreamer of so many dreams, want to haunt? The studio was designed by architecture firm BOTO Design Inc, of Santa Monica, and was completed in 1988. It contains two live music venues used as rehearsal spaces.
After the Paisley Park record label folded in 1994, Prince continued to live and record at Paisley Park Studios. Prince's intention before his death was to establish Paisley Park as a public venue. Elvis Presley's former home, Graceland, is a major Tennessee tourist attraction. On August 24, 2016, it was announced that Paisley Park would be turned into a museum open to the public. Tours of the Paisley Park Museum are set to start next month, local zoning willing. And local authorities will probably go along with it, since the studio will be a major draw for it's rural/suburban Chanhassen, MN surroundings. Graceland Holdings, the company that has managed Elvis Presley's Graceland since 1982, is set to organize the tours of Paisley Park. People who've seen it get a strange sense the singer knew it was about to open, and prepared himself for the after world .

Wow ingenious! why hadn't i thought of that! [Edited 10/7/16 6:12am] The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!
If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days... | |

Can you book Southwest Airlines? If you cancel before the flight (maybe there's a short time limit before, but it can be day of), they issue you a voucher for another Southwest flight. So at least you wouldn't completely lose the money. They fly into MSP. | |

I'd love to visit PP on Halloween night someday. My imagination will run wild thinking of Prince's ghost lurking in every corner of PP. "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."

It's actually kind of comforting. Prince is a super nice and beautiful spirit. | |

Where are the first person reports from people that toured Paisley on October 6th? I will tour The Park on October 14th at 11:30 AM. I guess that photo I saw on the Chanhassen Villager calling it a sneak peak must be from the sound stage area.

what would be cool is a holagram of him walking around Paisley Park....that would really be effective or hanging out in one of the rooms and saying hello as you enter the room. Can you imagine that? [Edited 10/7/16 12:28pm] [Edited 10/10/16 13:43pm] fan for life | |

I was watching the Girls and Boys music video last nite and Prince said, "Boo!" at the end of the video and walked away while Jerome Benton was cracking up about it. It would b great to see that video playing in the Parade room. Made me laughed watching that video and brought tears to my eyes as well. "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."

Unfortunately, EPE is incompetent | |

Paisley Park is evolving and i'm glad it has experienced management. i do have confidence that the management company will eventually sort out things out and run Paisley Park in such a fashion that it has a fighting chance to survive well into the future.

[Edited 10/16/16 12:48pm] PS it would be much easier to maintain confidence in Elvis Presley Enterprises if only that company would REFUND the tickets it cannot honor. The delays in this regard don't help at all | |
