particularly among students at the University of Mississippi. The town's assistant director of tourism, Suzann William, claimed MacLeod was Holly Springs' number one tourist attraction. Closure In June 2014, MacLeod was involved in an altercation that resulted in the death of David Taylor, a twenty-eight-year old black man. Taylor had been assisting MacLeod with repainting the exterior, and the two were arguing over an unpaid ten dollars. MacLeod shot Taylor at point-blank range, killing him. MacLeod cooperated with police and was released with no charges filed. One day later, MacLeod suffered a heart attack and died on the front porch of Graceland Too. His passing was mourned on social media and made national headlines. After his funeral a vigil was held at the museum; mourners decorated the property with cans of soda. The contents of Graceland Too went up for auction in January 2015, with the entire lot of items sold for a reported $54,500 to an anonymous buyer from Georgia. An issue with the online bidding company required a new auction held that May. The vast majority of Graceland Too's property—including hundreds of pieces of Presley memorabilia—was sold for an undisclosed amount. Later that year, the home and all remaining property were purchased for $5,500 by Marie and Jeffrey Underwood, as well as members of the Friends of Graceland Too. In popular culture Shortly after MacLeod's death, it was revealed that documentary filmmakers had been working for five years on a film about MacLeod and Graceland Too. The same week as the auction an art photography book, Graceland Too Revisited, was published by authors/photographers Darrin Devault and Tom Graves. Graceland Too has been commemorated in American popular culture: indie rock band Parquet Courts were inspired to write "Uncast Shadow of a Southern Myth" (2014) after a visit to the museum, while singer-songwriter Phoebe Bridgers included a song named after Graceland Too on her 2020 album Punisher. In 2022, Graceland Too: The Building Elvis Never Left, a play about MacLeod, Taylor, and the museum, written by Nicole Hughes with music by Matt Wood, premiered at the New York Theater Festival.
