For #10 I’m tempted to put “The Universe and I,” an instructional TV series produced where I work, but I am forced to admit that this is probably not one of Nimoy’s better-known credits.

Woot, I knew that that stupid Bilbo song would be widely-known among Dopers! It’s the perfect score opportunity: Enough people answering it that it’s worth good points, but not so many that everyone gets it and it becomes irrelevant.
Tut-tut to how few people are going with Tecumseh, though (does the Curse of Tippecanoe count as the same thing?).
-
Same as the Curse of Tecumseh/Presidential Deaths curse mentioned by others. Tecumseh fought William Henry Harrison at the Battle of Tippecanoe (in the county where I’m typing this) in 1811. Harrison died in 1841 after one month in office, thus becoming the curse’s first (alleged) victim.

Hope that this answer and my essentially identical one get lumped in with the more general “author” and “written a couple of books” responses.
Same as the reference to Cubs never again winning World Series.
A week ago I’d have probably gone with the song. But I was thinking Peter Graves’ death might push up the Mission: Impossible votes.
I would think so to the latter part. To the former, well, that’s the price of going a bit too high-brow in your reference.
Heh, my first inclination was the Hope Diamond.
I guess I’ll go with “singer” <snerk>, director, author, narrator/host, and break out specific acting roles such as the Simpsons and Mission:Impossible.
I’ve never seen that Bilbo Baggins video, and I’m not clicking on that link either. You can’t make me. 
To tell you the truth, I’ve never seen the whole thing.
I thought I was just being funny with that answer.

If I ever win big in the Lottery, I’m going to claim that the ghost of Elvis told me the winning numbers.
I thought Elvis was rumored to be still alive, as opposed to being dead and appearing as a ghost. 
No, no, see, there are multiple Elvises. Fat Elvis is still alive and shows up occasionally in supermarkets, but Thin Elvis died early in his career and turned into a ghost. That’s why they had to replace him with Fat Elvis in the first place.
You didn’t think those were actually the same guy, did you? I mean, really.
I thought Thin Elvis replace Paul McCartney after he died.
Reminds me of “The Three Ages of Elvis” in Father Ted.
