He later picks up Denise, the only survivor of the ordeal, and takes her right back to the house.
The Devil's Rejects[]
About one year after the events of the first film, Sheriff John Quincy Wydell, brother of George, led a police raid on the Firefly house. Captain Spaulding met up with Otis and Baby, the only two to escape, at the Kahiki Palms Motel. He then took them to the whorehouse owned by his friend Charlie Altamont. Wydell, who had been slowly going insane after learning of his brother's death, traced them to Altamont and pressured him into giving them up.
Wydell raided the whorehouse, taking the three fugitives back to the Firefly house, where he tortured them. Captain Spaulding had a picture of George Wydell stapled to his chest, while the others were tortured in a similar manner. Spaulding and the others were saved by Tiny, a family member who wasn't caught because he had been away from the house. When they tried to get away, they realized the police had blocked the road to arrest them. Knowing that one way or another they gonna die, the rest of the Firefly family drove directly at the blockage and opened fire at the cops only to be shot and wounded.
3 From Hell[]
Captain Spaulding appears on the news coverage of the murder trials of the Firefly Family. Despite widespread protest, Otis B. Driftwood, Vera-Ellen "Baby" Firefly, and Captain Spaulding are all found guilty and sentenced to death. In a prison interview, Spaulding maintains his claim that he is innocent, and was railroaded by the system for being an average clown. The interviewer says that average clowns usually aren't convicted of 38 murders, like Spaulding was, causing him to laugh hysterically. Shortly after, a breaking news bulletin announces that Captain Spaulding was executed via lethal injection.
