A New Theory on Jim Morrison’s Death: Could He Be Alive 50 Years Later?

Jim Morrison, the iconic frontman of The Doors and a member of the “27 Club,” was found dead in an apartment on July 3, 1971. Buried without an autopsy, some fans long speculated that the legendary singer faked his own death.

Since January, Apple TV+ has been streaming Before The End: Searching For Jim Morrison, a documentary series directed by Morrison fan Jeff Finn, which explores this mysterious theory. According to Syracuse.com, the series claims Morrison is still alive, living in Syracuse as a maintenance worker named Frank. Finn, who has researched Morrison for 39 years, includes an interview with Frank, who reportedly gives evasive answers about his identity. The documentary also reveals that Finn showed Frank’s photo to two of Morrison’s former girlfriends, who were moved to tears, noting a scar on Frank’s nose where Morrison had a distinctive mole.
