Session storage keep data in string so you get always false. Try:

visited != "true"

Set time 1ms before load and use remove instead of hide. – 4b0 Nov 05 '18 at 14:51

hide it in case it's just visited and set visited only if it was not

jQuery(window).load(function() {
    if (sessionStorage.getItem('visited')) {
        jQuery(".famous-loader-overlay").hide();
        return;
    }
    jQuery(".famous-loader-overlay").delay(1500).fadeOut(1500);
    sessionStorage.setItem('visited', "1");
});
