Elvis Presley's unseen Graceland upstairs: His second private bathroom smothered in gold

Graceland opened to the public back in 1982, just five years after Elvis Presley's untimely death. Yet it wasn't until the pandemic happened that virtual tours were offered during lockdown. For the first time, fans could witness unseen spaces from Aunt Delta's room behind the kitchen to The King's other private bathroom upstairs in the racquetball court. Elvis erected the latter behind the Memphis mansion in September 1975 for $250,000 - well over the $102,500 Elvis paid for the whole property in 1957.

Fans can walk through the sports building on the tour, including its lounge area, which houses the last piano The King played on the morning of his death. However, the first floor isn't accessible to the public. Nevertheless, the Daily Express previously participated in a Graceland virtual tour led by archivist Angie Marchese, whom we witnessed venturing up there on a live stream.
