Notes | There are aspects of this story based on fact as Gibsonton, Florida, also known as "Freakville," is the notorios stomping ground of circus performers during the off season; Grady Franklin Stiles Jr., a.k.a. "Lobster Boy," resided there and was shot to death in 1992 by a circus sideshow performer hired by his family because he was such a nice guy (he was a violent alcoholic and had murdered his oldest daughter's fiancé on the eve of their wedding). For further reading, please see "Lobster Boy: The Bizarre Life and Brutal Death of Grady Stiles Jr." by Fred Rosen. |
