Driven by his perverse affinity for The King\, he turned his own Holly Springs\, MS home into Graceland Too\, an obsessive\, candy-colored shrine dedicated to all things Elvis\, where his ongoing mission was amassing all of the Presley ephemera he could get his hands on and documenting every mention of the star he could find via radio\, television and film. In addition to being a dogged curator of kingly dreck\, MacLeod was known as a bombastic personality with the eccentric habit of giving lengthy\, frenetic tours of his home to anyone who stopped by\, 24 hours a day. \nSpectacle to some\, sanctuary to others\, Graceland Too was a wayward beacon that attracted Elvis fans from all over the world. \nPaul MacLeod passed away in July of 2014\, and over the past year\, many have offered their time and resources in service of preserving what became his life’s work: sheltering strange treasures and welcoming fellow pilgrims on the road to Graceland (Too).
