An Interview With Ottis Toole: The Cannibal Kid

by Billy Bob Barton A Boiled Angel #8 Exclusive

The following article is reprinted from Mike Diana's "The Worst Of Boiled

Angel". Ottis Toole is a convicted killer responsible for, by his own

approximations, hundred of deaths. The included tabloid article is taken

from the October 15, 1996 issue of 'GLOBE'.

Let me tell you something: as a crime beat journalist I've met every kind

of criminal scum known to mankind, a few I believed were aliens from other

planets. I've interviewed Ted Bundy who knawed on the naked buttocks of a

dead college coed and who fucked the week-old rotting, headless corpse of

Denise Noslund in Washington State. The law never got him for that one,

Bundy fried for strangling and raping the remains of a Florida schoolgirl.

Bundy was so depraved that he radiated evil like a supernova. Pure scumbag.

I've chatted with serial murderess Margie Barfield who had a habit of

poisoning her victims. I saw her at the North Carolina Prison for Women

shortly before she was executed. She was smiling, hymn-singing,

bible-thumping bag of shit who'd make you feel comfortable while pouring

rat poison down your throat.

I've talked to the worst criminals on Earth - or so I thought - but nothing

prepared me for my meeting with Ottis Toole, the infamous Cannibal Kid, who

recently was sentenced to a mandatory 100 years in North Florida. I wrote

this character a letter while he was in prison near Appilachocola but

didn't catch up to him until he was sent to the infamous Florida State

Prison near Starke.

The Florida State Prison is a built on a pestiferous swamp. The mosquitos

almost sucked me dry as I waited to be cleared for entry into this state

sponsored septic tank of a prison. A sweating fat black maggot of a prison

cop wearing a shit-brown uniform examined my credentials as the vermin

attacked my bare skin. I swatted the bugs as the insolent toad looked me

over as if I was a new arrival for the eletric chair. There isn't any

speices of human lower than a prison guard. They're far more corrupt than

the criminals they watch over. In my oppinion, they're blubbergutted,

tobacco spitting, animated balls of feces. Only a pervert would work in a

prison and at the Florida State Prison I saw these brown-shirted perverts

aplenty.

Finally I was approved for entry into the prison and was escorted to the

interview area by a swishing, limp-wristed homosexual "Classification

Specialist". I was afraid to ask what the pussy-boy specialized in. "He"

was a "she" and a genuine charmer. Finally I was put in a little room and a

chained human monster by the name of Ottis Toole was led in by a squad of

prison goons. They threw Toole into a chair but left the chains on him.

Toole glared at their backs as they left the room. Finally he looked at me;

I looked at him andsaid, "I'm Billy Bob. Is it true you eat people or that

is just bullshit?"

Toole looked me over as if I were a whopper and said "You look damn tasty.

If I had me a knife I'd slit your throat and drink some blood."

I noticed Toole began to drool a bit at the idea of dicing me up for

stewmeat. His eyes were red and crazy, he began to pant and hiss like a

hungry animal. He liked the idea of munching on human meat.

"They tell me you eat young boys," I said.

"I've eaten my share," Toole admitted

"Tell me about it," I said.

Toole cocked his head to one side, said in a weird squeaky little voice,

"First I go out and catch me a little boy, maybe go down to a mall or

shopping center and grab one there...grab him, tie him up, use a gag, put

him in the trunk of my car and drive him to my place out in the swamps.

Nobody to bother me way out there."

"Did you rape those boys?"

"Yeah, I give it to 'em in the butt."

"Make them scream?"

"Naw, they have on a gag. Can't scream."

"Ever fuck little girls?"

"Sure. Fuck'em in the butt same as a boy."

"You fuck'em, then you kill'em?"

"Yeah. So what? I like it."

"Ever kill any adult people?"

"Plenty of'em. All the time-men, women, kids."

"I read where you use a bar-b-que sauce when you eat those kids. Is that

true?"

"Yeah, I have my own recipe."

"Ever kill teenagers?"

"Sure. Get a pair of lovers parking in the woods. Easy to catch them.

Teenagers make a nice roast, I do favor a rump roast from a teen. Younger

ones I think I prefer ribs. Juicy. Tasty. Younought to try some."

"You're a sick fucker! Anyone ever told you that?"

"Sure. Plenty have told me. I got off death row because they said I'm too

sick to burn on the eletric chair. Nobody came around to try to cure me.

They give me some pill. People eat pigs, cows, horses. I like to eat

people. It's good meat, too. You ain't tried it, don't be saying it ain't

tasty. You might like it."

"How many people have you killed and eaten?"

"Just me killing them alone or the ones I killed and ate with Henry?"

"You were doing this with Henry Lucas, too?"

"Yeah, we'd mostly eat hitch hikers."

"All together how many do you think?"

"Oh, probably about 150 or so."

"Incredible! And the police never caught you?"

"Ain't no police out in the woods."

"Henry Lee Lucas says now that he didn't kill all those people, that he was

making it all up. What do you say about that?"

"We killed over 200 when we was roaming the country together. Maybe he

killed more before he met me or after we split. I'd say around 200 for

sure, I got over 100 my own self. Henry said he got about 400 all together,

I don't know for sure. I really don't."

"Do you recall any memorable killings?"

"Oh yeah, I remember Shelly."

"Shelly, is that a boy or a girl?"

"A young woman about 20 or 25, around there."

"What do you remember?"

"I got her when she was hitch hiking in Colorado. I had me an old pick-up

truck. I picked her up, took her up into the Rocky Mountains and killed

her. She was naked when I killed her. A pretty one. It was the summertime

in 1974 and what was funny is that the police blamed the killing on Ted

Bundy but Ted didn't get that one, I got her."

"Ever hear of anyone else being blamed for killings you did?"

"Yeah. I got me a chinese girl out by Colorado Springs in 1974; cut her

throat and she had a friend and I stabbed her up, too. The cop got a guy

named Estep for that case but I did it. Cops don't always get the right

person."

"Kill anyone else in Colorado?"

"Oh yeah, I remember a girl. Ellen, late twenties or early thirties in age,

I got her down by Pueblo, Colorado, we rode east. I shot that one, shot her

throught the head."

"Did you fuck them?"

"Sometimes. I fucked them the way I fuck a boy. Make them take it up the

ass. I ain't into pussy but a girl's asshole is about the same as a man's."

"Did you eat Patty?"

"No. Not her. I shot her; didn't eat her or cut off a hunk to eat later.

Just left her lying dead."

"Were you involved with a Death Cult then?"

"No, not then. That was around 1974. I joined the cult in the 1980's, early

80's. I was in it with Henry."

"Tell me about it."

"It was THE HAND OF DEATH. We were working for that cult and we'd grab

little kids for the human sacrifices, grab young women for the snuff

movies. We'd tie the women up and haul them to Mexico, only the ones that

come out there. I liked working for THE HAND OF DEATH. They'd let me have

the corpses when they were done with the films or sacrifices and I could

take a prime cut. We got most on those people from Texas since it's near

the border with Mexico. There were several Death Cults down there. I heard

that a few years ago the police busted one near Matamoros. That wasn't THE

HAND OF DEATH, it was a different one."

"What's a human sacrifice like?"

"Secret rituals, I can't reveal it to anyone."

"Generally. Tell me generally."

"Put them on the altar and cut their throat; then make a burnt offering to

the Devil. Like that generally."

"Who? Women? Kids?"

"Virgins were preferred. Girls of teenage years."

"Virgins sacrifice?"

"Yeah, slit the throat, collect the blood in a goblet, pass it around and

drink it hot. Do chants. It's secret stuff. You aren't supposed to reveal

it. They make you take an oath for secrecy."

"You drank human blood from a cup?"

"Yeah, it's in the ritual."

"What's it taste like?"

"Kinda salty. Not so good. I like cooked meat. I didn't mind eating the

cooked parts."

"Is eating human flesh part of the rituals?"

"Sometimes."

"What parts are ritually eaten?"

"Well, I'm not allowed to tell about it."

"Just tell a little."

"We had a ritual where we ate sex parts."

"Tell about that."

"The women parts were the titty nipples and the hole where the dick goes in."

"The vagina."

"I guess. It's like a little bag of muscle."

"What about the males?"

"Cut off the peter, cut off the balls."

"You fry it all up?"

"No, it's put in like a little stewpot. The guy who cooks it makes it like

a soup or stew. It's a secret recipe from about a thousand years ago."

"Taste good?"

"Not bad. The part of the woman around the pussy hole is like lips. Sort of

chewy and rubbery. The balls are damned good when fried. Use a little

batter and a fryer and it's a real treat. Crispy. Like a crispy chestnut.

Fresh fried balls is one of my favorites."

"What's eating the sex parts supposed to do for you?"

"Gives you increased sexual potency. Powers."

"Right. You believe that?"

"I don't know. I prefer to eat the ribs actually but I go along with what's

being served at the ceremonies."

"Where was this weird shit going down, Ottis?"

"Mexico, a ranch down there."

"And these were all virgins you ate and cut up?"

"I don't know. Me and Henry would drive up to Texas and collect women.

Girls. We'd just catch those we come upon."

"Tell me about that part."

"Certain times of the year the priests wanted virgins for the human

sacrifices. They'd say to me and Henry to go up to texas and collect some.

We'd drive on up. get girls hitch hiking, pick up vans at bars, there are a

lot of women just walking down the road in South Texas. Migrant workers.

We'd get them, tie them up, gag them, put them in the trunk. We fill the

trunk, 6 or 8 girls, then go back to Mexico. Down at the ranch the priests

check them for virgins."

"How did they check?"

"Took down their pants and looked at that hole. The hole is smaller on

virgins. Something about that hole, I'm not into women. The priests took

the virgins to one building and the non-virgins went to where they made

snuff films."

"Ever see any of these films being made?"

"Yeah."

"What did you see?"

Ä political movie about Paris, France, in the old days. They had a machine

that cut off a womans head."

"A guilloine?"

"Yeah, I think so."

"Tell about it."

"The woman i strapped to a board. Her neck is locked in between a thing,

her head is sticking out of a hole on the board. A big knife drops and cuts

off her head. The head falls into a basket."

"You watched?"

"Yeah, it was interesting. Her name was Charlotte."

"You knew her name?"

"Her movie name, I guess. She was political. Broke some law, so they cut

off her head. Blood squirted all over the place. It was an old timey

execution."

"Did you sacrifice any virgins?"

"No, never did. Priests did all that."

"You saw it?"

"Oh sure, we all saw it."

"What did you see? Tell how a virgin is sacrificed."

"The high priest is dressed in a goat costume. He stands behind the virgin.

She's chained belly down to the sacrificial block with her buttocks raised

and spread. There is a second high priest who has the knife. They do the

chants, ceremonies, the secret things I can't tell about. Then the priest

in front pulls the virgins head back by her hair and puts the knife against

her throat. The one behind her steps up and puts his dick into her sex hole

and when she screams the priest in front slits her throat. It's all secret

rites."

"How many virgins are sacrificed?"

"The main ceremony, once a year calls for 13 virgins. That's the big

ritual. Ususally it's only one virgin."

"Do you really expect me to believe you saw 13 virgins sacrificed at one

time? There aren't even 13 virgins left in America. Give me a fucking

break, Ottis!"

"It's not all at once. One at a time, all night long because each ceremony,

at sundown and the last, at sunrise which is about an hour. The first one

is a black girl, she is sacrificed to the prince of darkness at the exact

moment of sundown. During the night virgins are sacrificed to specific

demons. Those virgins are usually Latinas. The last virgin, the 13th, is

sacrificed to Lucifer, Son of the Morning; always a blond girl is used and

her throat is cut at sunrise. She's called the Sun Princess. She has two

slavegirl attendants who are sacrificed with her, they go with her into the

Heart Of The Sun."

"Ottis, you're crazy!"

"The year I first saw the Ceremonies the Sun Princess was a teenage girl,

a white-blond from Houston. Her cult name was "Taireina" which is "Morning

Star". The year I saw it the Sun Princess was an American, so was the black

girl, the others were Latinas. I saw the rituals. THE HANDS OF DEATH are a

most secret cult; I've already said too much!"

"You and Lucas were involved in this shit?"

"Yeah, but Henry wants to deny everything now because he's trying to avoid

being executed. I'm too crazy for execution so I can tell you how it really

was. Henry killed a lot of people. I know, I was there. I helped him do the

murders."

"We're running out of time Ottis. Do you have any particularly fond

memories of your days together with Henry Lucas? He's the one they made the

movie about, not you. He's famous, you're a nobody. A prison faggot. What's

your last word?"

"Henry is going to be executed but I'll be alive surrounded by cute

fuck-boys. I have everything I want in prison. Except I miss the freedom to

drive down the highway robbing and killing from town to town. That's

excitment at its best and miss being able to bar-b-que a boy when I get the

urge. I did like to bar-b-que. You can write it your story that anyone who

wants to write me and get a recipe for my home made sauce, I'll send it

free. Just send a few stamps for the reply letter. That's all honey."
