Forbes has just released the famous list of the highest paid dead Celebrities for 2018. Like every year for Halloween, the list is one of the most looked at by the media.

And once again (since 2009), Michael Jackson is number one with a stunning $400 Million!

Michael Jackson again tops Forbes’s list of the highest-paid dead celebrities after hauling in $400 million over the past year, mostly from the sale of his EMI Music Publishing stake. Additional cash comes from his Mijac Music catalogue, a new Sony record deal and projects like TV special Michael Jackson’s Halloween, which returned to CBS on October 20 for the second consecutive year.

“You see Charlie Brown Christmas and Charlie Brown Thanksgiving every year, so now we’re looking to have Michael Jackson’s Halloween every year,” says John Branca, the Michael Jackson estate’s co-executor. “We hope that it’ll become evergreen.”
