Spacey’s brother described their father as “The Creature.”

Kevin Spacey’s name has been in the spotlight for the last week after accusations arose surrounding Spacey sexually preying on a child actor in 1986 for which he apologised.

In an exclusive interview, Spacey’s brother revealed that the Hollywood actor used his fame and fortune to mask his true twisted nature.

Randy Fowler says the House of Cards star turned to acting and changed his name to hide a dark childhood that was filled with abuse and denials about his sexuality.

“Kevin turned to acting as a little kid. He ditched the name Fowler and created the character of Kevin Spacey to mask a monster. It helped him hide from his demons.

“He struggled with his sexuality, always denying he was gay. On stage, he pretended to be somebody else. It gave him power, transformed him.

“His fans love the sinister characters he plays, but he’s not acting, that’s really him. He hid behind his acting career to maintain a secret sordid life and in reality, he was a monster.

Spacey’s brother believes that he is following in the footsteps of their father, Geoff, a man he calls “The Creature”.

“We grew up with abuse and neglect in a house of horrors. Our violent dad whipped me with a riding crop… I’ve never had children in case that evil personality could be passed on.

“Now it sadly seems one of us may carry those twisted genes and that person might be Kevin.

Spacey’s brother said that he has often tried to get in touch with his famous acting brother but sadly he never got back to him and has ignored any of his letters that have been sent.

“I’m speaking out because I want him to know I’m here for him if he needs me.”
