  "description": "Alphonso DeNoble was a morbidly obese actor who only appeared in three low-budget horror pictures during his regrettably fleeting career. DeNoble's regular job was working as a bouncer at a Paterson, New Jersey gay bar. Little is known of the actor’s personal life. New Jersey marriage records show that DeNoble married a woman named I.H. Chang in December 1972.\n\nTo earn extra money, Alphonso would allegedly often dress up as a priest and hang around cemeteries. Elderly widows would ask \"Father Alphonso\" for a blessing and offer him a donation for the church in return.\n\nDirector Joel M. Reed said that Alphonso shot himself after an incident of him getting stuck in a turnstile due to his weight appeared in the papers.",
