John Lennon’s death shocked the world — but for some, it seems his spirit never left. In this episode of Ghostly, we explore reports that Lennon’s ghost still lingers at the Dakota Apartments in New York City, where he was tragically murdered in 1980. From glowing apparitions in the archway to the sound of phantom piano music, believers claim Lennon continues to send messages of peace from beyond the grave.

Pat and Rebecca dig into the evidence, including sightings by Dakota residents, Yoko Ono’s own experiences, and even a few mysterious recording studio stories from Paul McCartney. Could these encounters mean Lennon is still trying to communicate—or are they simply echoes of grief, memory, and fame?
