Well, the :printHeap command that comes with it does “visualize” things as something resembling Haskell syntax: let x1 = "A Value" x16 = True : False : x16 in (x1,x1,x16) I don’t know of anything more graphical besides ghc-vis, but you could roll your own, if you want to; you can use ghc-heap-view to get a graph using http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-heap-view-0.5.9/docs/GHC-HeapView.html#v:buildHeapGraph and then visualize that as you like.
