Welcome to EP Fan Archive’s chapter-by-chapter deep dive into From Here to the Great Unknown, the posthumous memoir by Lisa Marie Presley and Riley Keough.
In this episode, we explore Chapter 3: The Wall — a raw, heartbreaking look at how Lisa responded to the death of her father, Elvis Presley. From building a literal wall around her home to emotionally shutting out the world, this chapter reveals the deep grief, abandonment, and trauma Lisa carried from childhood into adulthood.
We dive into:
• Her emotional disconnect from Priscilla Presley
• How Scientology told her grief was “weakness”
• Her spiral into rebellion and isolation
• What Riley Keough helps us understand about her mother’s pain
• The psychology behind childhood trauma and attachment wounds
• Why fame couldn’t protect Lisa from emotional devastation
⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions of childhood trauma, parental loss, grief, emotional neglect, and addiction. Please take care while listening.
