Captain Spaulding, played by the late Sid Haig, may look a little scary, but he's actually one of the most innocent characters in House of 1000 Corpses. He's a proprietor of a gas station and fried chicken eatery, which also serves as a roadside attraction. He may be a vulgar clown, but his personality and jokes set him more on the sillier side when it comes to film clowns. He may not have good intentions, but by no means is he more terrifying than some of his companions in this film.
