Elvis Presley's Crypt To Be Auctioned Off In June

If one lucky individual can afford to pay the price, then he or she can buy the original resting place of Elvis Presley, aka the King of Rock and Roll.

Celebrity auctioneer Darren Julien of Julien's Auctions in Beverly Hills, Calif., said the original crypt of Elvis Presley will be sold to the highest bidder as part of his Music Icons auction in June. Presley's former tomb is located inside a granite and marble mausoleum at the Forest Hill Cemetery in Memphis, Tenn., the Daily Mail reported.

Presley was originally buried in the mausoleum alongside his mother, Gladys, after he died Aug. 16, 1977, reported TMZ.

When Presley died, about 80,000 people lined the streets and watched the funeral procession as it made its way to Forest Hills Cemetery. However, the bodies of both the singer and his mother were later moved and reburied in the meditation garden at Presley's Graceland home.

The original crypt that held them has remained empty since then, reported the Daily Mail.

Julien said that winner of the auction will receive the crypt, opening and closing of the vault for burial, an inscription to mark the crypt, and access to the cemetery's chapel for a funeral service, reported the New York Post.

The auction will also feature clothing and furniture formerly owned by Meat Loaf; a guitar once used by Jimi Hendrix; and a pair of sunglasses worn by Eric Clapton.
