You might find “verified in print, whether on the ever-changing (or scrubbed) internet or in other “reputable” publications, that the man we have come to know as “Paul McCartney” has gone by many alter egos including the following:
Percy Thrillington, The Fireman, Paul Ramon, Bernard Webb, and Apollo C. Vermouth
Lesser known alter egos, and largely dismissed as conspiracies, are the following:
Phil Ackrill, William “Bill” Shepherd, Billy Shears, Vivian Stanshall, and Billy Pepper
Most of the above are other names that the man we have come to know as Paul McCartney has gone by in the past. In some of those cases, he reportedly hired an actor, such as Vivian Stanshall, to play the part out for him. However, when it comes to the “alter ego” of William “Bill” Shepherd, many PID (Paul is Dead) enthusiasts believe that this is the actual name of the man who replaced the biological Paul McCartney in 1966.
Most people are familiar with the Paul is Dead “conspiracy” but most people don’t believe it due to the mainstream media dismissing it as just that – a conspiracy. However, the Beatles organization, music industry and the man we have come to know as Paul McCartney, himself, have continually pushed and/or mentioned the “conspiracy” whether to generate more interest, sales or possibly to get the truth out there in a way that fits within the accepted forms/ways of disclosing truth within the main religions and/or belief systems of those in positions of power within the industry. These religions are mostly Satanism, Luciferian, or “Jewish” (though only in name – see my blog on the Khazarian Mafia).
In the Luciferian religion, for example, they belief that it’s okay to manipulate you, trick you, lie to you, and/or take advantage of you, if you are complicit. But you only have to be complicit on a subconscious level. So, you just have to have been “informed” in some way or form ahead of time, such as in predictive programming, and if you were passive or didn’t say anything, you are considered complicit. In Memoirs, the author writes, “Although the ruling elite accomplish their design by clandestine means, they tell all in words so plain that the majority disbelieves them. According to their law, when one gives notice of a course of action if those impacted do not formally object, they have lawfully agreed.” This is how they get away with so much, mostly through social engineering and predictive programming. On a side note, they also believe that their “good” deeds outweigh their bad deeds so they may murder, trick, cheat, lie, etc. but if they are also donating money to charity or doing philanthropic works, they consider themselves off the hook from karma in a sense. So, those charitable works aren’t truly altruistic at all but more self-serving, even if done “anonymously.”
Getting back to William “Bill” Shepherd, aka “Paul McCartney,” there is a book that was released in 2009 called “The Memoirs of Bill Shears” (Memoirs) by Thomas E. Uharriet. The author is purported to be the “encoder for the protagonist, Billy Shears.” Typical Beatles fans will tell you that “Billy Shears” is actually an alias for Ringo Starr within the context of the album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album because he is introduced as "Billy Shears" before singing in the song "With a Little Help from My Friends". However, Memoirs suggests that the truth is that Billy Shears is another name for William Shepherd. Memoirs was released as “historical fiction” allegedly because of the NDA (non-disclosure agreement) William Shepherd had to sign in order to allegedly take over the “part” of Paul McCartney after the biological Paul McCartney was allegedly killed. Based on this NDA, he can only legally tell the “truth” if it is released in as fiction or some other “acceptable” underhanded way.
So, most people have and will dismiss everything in the book Memoirs as fiction. After all, it was released as “fiction,” right? But, if you have actually read through the entire book (I read it originally in 2009 and dismissed it then but read it after it was updated and released again in 2023 and was more receptive to the information in it), it’s hard to outright dismiss it if you make it to the end. It is a long book that is very encrypted in various ways. The author is obviously a Beatles insider and to my knowledge, they have never been sued or called out by anyone in the Beatles camp. If someone was making a lot of money from fictitious work, wouldn’t the Beatles organization want a percentage of that money? Of course, you can excuse this away by saying that the Beatles organization approved of the work and are getting a cut of the earnings even though none of their camp’s publicly known names are publicly attached to the work. Hmmm….
Anway, the book suggests that William Shepherd took over the “part” of Paul McCartney after the biological Paul McCartney died in a car accident in 1966. Apparently, the Beatles organization wanted to keep the money machine going despite this “unfortunate” accident. So, they allegedly stopped touring, since William Shepherd is obviously much taller (6’2”) than biological Paul who was the same height (5’11”) as John Lennon and George Harrison, and mostly used William Shepherd as a stand-in for the biological Paul after biological Paul’s death. Apparently, William Shepherd had to get fillers, plastic surgery and/or wear latex masks to look enough like Paul to fool the public. The author even talks about learning how to play the bass left-handed like biological Paul.
But some PID enthusiasts suggest that biological Paul McCartney DID NOT die in a car accident but in a Satanic Ritual. Again, he alleged died in 1966 and the Satanic and Luciferian elite love their symbols, rituals, and numerology and 1966 has three 6’s in it if you turn the 9 upside down. William Shepherd, in the book Memoirs, suggests that he’s not telling the whole truth (Satanists and Luciferians love to tell partial truths for ultimate trickery) because of the legalities involved. However, the author talks about the “death (sacrifice) for success” oath that is part of the Satanic elite’s agenda and how the song “Yesterday” by the biological Paul McCartney was written about Paul’s regrets about being tricked into agreeing to his own death: “I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.” This is also one of the most covered songs by the Beatles, possibly because others that are tricked into the same oath feel the resonance and powerful true meaning of the song once they realize what they’ve done, what they’ve agreed to. Think of all the successful bands that have lost a member under suspicious circumstances:
- Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones
- John Bonham of Led Zeppelin
- Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters
- Michael Jackson of The Jackson 5 (assuming that he actually died in the Pepsi commercial fire and they’ve been using doubles or clones since – a well-known theory that is readily dismissed by most people – some people believe that he was brought back to life and cloned “after death” which accounts for all the skin and facial deformities from the “Bad” album moving forward, and also accounts for the Dave Dave “conspiracy.”)
- Kurt Cobain of Nirvana (yes, I know, he supposedly suicided but even though there is overwhelming circumstantial evidence that he did suicide, the forensics don’t lie and the forensics don’t fit suicide – just watched Soaked in Bleach)
- Keith Moon of The Who
- Bon Scott of ACDC
- Michael Hutchence of INXS
- Chris Cornell of Sound Garden
- Chester Bennington of Linkin Park
However, in the case of Chris and Chester, the reason for their deaths in Conspiracy-ville, is because they were both involved in a project called The Silent Children. Here’s what it says on the internet about that (in italics):
Some individuals on social media platforms have circulated a conspiracy theory linking Chris Cornell, along with Chester Bennington, Anthony Bourdain, and Avicii, to a documentary project titled "The Silent Children" and claiming their deaths were related to this project. According to these theories, these celebrities were reportedly working on the documentary which was planned to expose child sex trafficking and pedophilia, and they were murdered to prevent the project's completion.
However, this conspiracy theory has been widely debunked by reputable news organizations and fact-checkers.
Here's why the claims are false:
- No Involvement in the Documentary: A spokesperson for "The Silent Children" explicitly stated that none of the mentioned celebrities were ever involved in the project, nor were they in contact with them.
- Project Abandoned Prior to Deaths: The documentary project was abandoned due to lack of funding at least five years prior to the time the Reuters article was published (August 2020), and the production company was dissolved in January 2017. Chris Cornell passed away in May 2017. This means the project was already abandoned before Cornell's death, not canceled after it, as the conspiracy theory claims.
- Confirmed Suicides: The deaths of Avicii, Bennington, Cornell, and Bourdain have all been confirmed as suicides through official reports and autopsies.
- No Evidence of a Connection: The deaths of these four individuals occurred at different times and in different locations, and there is no evidence to suggest they were related or involved in a conspiracy.
In summary, there is no truth to the claim that Chris Cornell or the other mentioned celebrities were involved in "The Silent Children" documentary and were murdered in connection with it. The documentary project was abandoned before their deaths due to lack of funding, and their deaths have been confirmed as suicides.
Reuters

Who really owns and runs Reuters anyways and who picked them to be the premiere fact checking organization? Now, think of all the solo artists who have lost a family member, friend, partner under suspicious circumstances after making it big in music (or in any position of power on earth):
- Prince’s son
- Eric Clapton’s son
- Blake Shelton’s older brother
- Kanye West’s mother
- Sia’s boyfriend
- Olivia Newton John’s boyfriend
- Lady Gaga’s former bandmate, Lena Morgana
- Jennifer Hudson’s mother, brother and nephew
Isn’t it interesting how it’s often the oldest son? Anyway, getting back to Paul McCartney, there is actual forensic evidence, stated in Memoirs but that can be verified by other “reputable” sources as well, that support the “conspiracy” that Paul McCartney was replaced:
- In 1969, when the PID frenzy broke out in the US, Dr. Henry M. Truby of the University of Miami, used samples from Beatles sons to make sonograms, allegedly to prove that Paul was still alive through voice biometrics. What he found, however, was that Paul’s voice on “Yesterday” did not match the voice on “Hey Jude.” They were reportedly “of different throat shapes.” This was reportedly published in Life magazine on November 7, 1969. Dr. Truby was using spectrographs which show that all people have a unique voiceprint, similar to finger prints but having to do with the voice. William Shepherd, reportedly a well-known successful and effective session musician prior to taking over the role of Paul McCartney, was reportedly referred to as “the man of a thousand voices” due to his ability to mimic so many different singers. (Side note: Stevie Wonder is also an incredibly gifted mimic when it comes to sounding like other singers.) However, despite William best attempts to contort his voice to sound like biological Paul’s voice, the science still revealed the difference in voiceprints. Apparently, William is also the man of 1000 faces. BTW – the pictures from the face collage above are mostly from Mike Williams’ work on the PID “conspiracy.” Mike’s YouTube videos on the subject matter are amazing and you should definitely check them out starting with the following link (Mike goes by “Sage of Quay” on YT and Rumble): https://youtu.be/3I6B1nJexOA?si=XQioipqP8nWotYcC
- William as Paul McCartney was arrested on January 16, 1980, in Japan and interrogated by INTERPOL because he tried to smuggle marijuana into the country. When they took his fingerprints, they did not believe he was Paul McCartney because INTERPOL had biological Paul’s fingerprints from when he (bio Paul) was arrested in 1960 in Germany. INTERPOL agents also noticed the differences in signatures between William and biological Paul. Because the UK interceded on William’s behalf, he was let off the hook at that time in 1980.
- Besides the height differences, biological Paul had attached earlobes whereas William as Paul has detached earlobes. You might not find many images to compare, though, because a lot of the earlier images of biological Paul have been altered to look like William’s version. Additionally, bio Paul’s eyes were brown whereas William’s eyes are Hazel. However, he may have used colored contact lenses in the beginning of playing the role of Paul McCartney before eventually not bothering with them once the general public had been sufficiently bamboozled. There is evidence that William has a false eye and he alludes to this throughout Memoirs. There is also a great Rumble video on this by Mike Williams.
- Biological Paul had a girlfriend, Erika Hubers, in Germany that he started dating in August 1960 and was with for about a year and a half. They had a daughter, Bettina Hubers, who was born on December 19, 1962. Apparently, Paul urged Erika to abort the baby. In the end, paternity was established and Paul ended up having to pay child support. When Bettina turned 20 years old in 1982, she filed a paternity suit to get more money. Since William was in the role of Paul at that point, the paternity, per a blood sample William provided, did not match so William did not have to continue paying the child support, something he reportedly did to carry out the role of Paul McCartney after bio Paul’s death. Apparently, a bunch of character witnesses lined up to testify that Erika had not been with another man but bio Paul during the time of conceiving Bettina. Erika also reportedly said, “it’s not him” when she saw William in person. Bio Paul reportedly had another daughter, Michelle (for whom he wrote the song “Michelle”) born April 5, 1960, with Monique LeVallier (1945-1999). It would be interesting to see if Michelle’s and Bettina’s DNA matched them as related as if they would show as related to bio Paul’s known living relatives.
- According to an online article (see link below), “The forensic evidence, presented by Italian scientists Francesco Gavazzeni and Gabriella Carlesi, indicates disparities in facial features between Paul 1966 and before and the post-1966 McCartney.” This study was done by the Italian Scientists in 2009.

There is a ton more circumstantial evidence that Mike Williams speaks to and that William Shepherd speaks to in Memoirs. Memoirs, at the very least, is an entertaining and cleverly-written book. At it’s best, it not only discloses the truth about the PID “conspiracy” but also about conspiracies in general such as the JFK assassination and the moon landing. Read the Memoirs book (especially Chapter 65), watch the Mike Williams’ videos and decide for yourself.
There are some people who don't believe that there ever was a Paul McCartney (or a John Lennon, George Harrison, or Ringo Starr) but that this was just a part in a fake band kind of like The Monkees. After all, there is a lot of evidence that they did not write most of their own song and weren't as gifted musically as they were portrayed to be. Even Quincy Jones once said that The Beatles can't play their instruments. There have been a number of musicians who have claimed to have played on many of Beatles' records icognito and were not given public credit for their work so as to keep the illusion alive.
If the role of Paul McCartney was played by a hired actor/musician, the role could've been passed on to different people through the years. Some claim that John Halliday was the original Paul McCartney. There is a video someone posted on FB (though you can also find it on Tik Tok and YT) of John Halliday: https://www.facebook.com/groups/AlbertEinsteinQuotes/posts/1754958105057814/
Here is a picture of the original “Paul McCartney” next to John Halliday. To me, the nose and mouth look the same but the eyes look different:

There are some people who talk about there being at least 2 different actors playing the part of John Lennon. Some people say that the original Lennon was Colin Unwin. Below is a picture of “John Lennon” and Colin Unwin:

To me, Colin Unwin looks much more like the young John Lennon than whoever was playing John Lennon at the end of the show. Because Unwin and Halliday were friends and Halliday was the part-time custodian of John Lennon's house, it's easy to make the case for Halliday being the original Paul McCartney. Some say that Mark Staycer was another actor who played the part of John Lennon at some point in time. Some say that Terry Johnston played the part of the original George Harrison. But do your own research and decide for yourself what you believe in this age of Aquarius…
