The Walrus Was Paul: The Great Beatle Death Clues

â€œPaul is dead.â€

It was the late 1960s, the Beatles hadnâ€™t toured since 1966, and some truly bizarre indications began appearing, pointing to the unthinkable: Paul McCartney had been killed in a car accident and replaced by a look-alike. The Walrus Was Paul unearths every single clue from one of rock â€™nâ€™ rollâ€™s most enduring puzzles and takes you on a magical mystery tour of baffling, yet fascinating, hints for solving this mystery.

Test your â€œPaul is deadâ€ trivia knowledge. Did you find and answer the following clues on the front cover?

To what song does the title, The Walrus Was Paul, refer?
-â€œI Am the Walrus,â€ which appeared on the clue-filled album Magical Mystery Tour.

There is an egg in Paulâ€™s eye. Why?
-In the song â€œI Am the Walrus,â€ John Lennon sings, â€œI am the eggman...I am the walrusâ€â€”and later, in the song â€œGlass Onion,â€ we find out that, in fact, â€œthe walrus was Paul.â€

To what album (and richest source of â€œPaul is deadâ€ clues) do the red, Victorian-style design elements on the front refer?
-Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Why is the image of Paul McCartney on the cover blurry? Are there distinguishing characteristics that might lead you to conclude something is awry?
-Many photographs of Paul in these questionable years were blurry, and Paul had a mustache, which allegedly concealed the fact that this was not Paul and the plastic-surgery scars were being hidden from his curious public.

The anagram on the bottom of the cover refers to a Greek island where John Lennon had what planned?
-The island Leso is the â€œhidden Greek islandâ€ on which John Lennon planned to bury Paul, and it is spelled out as â€œBe at Lesoâ€ on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
