Madame Marie, a figure of rock'n'roll mythology thanks to Bruce Springsteen, is living the boardwalk life again.
Marie Castello, who told fortunes out of a shack she called the Temple of Knowledge for 65 years, has returned to the tiny Asbury Park landmark after a seven-year hiatus.
Marie became a fixture with the Boss' fans in 1973 with a line in his song 4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy): "Did you hear, the cops finally busted Madame Marie for tellin' fortunes better than they do".
