Kirstie Alley’s Parents’ Disturbing Halloween Costumes Revealed
A resurfaced interview with the late Kirstie Alley has shed light on a disturbing incident involving her parents’ deaths in a car crash in 1981. In the interview, Alley recounted how her mother, Lillian Maxine Alley, was dressed in blackface while her father, Robert Deal Alley, was wearing a Ku Klux Klan costume at the time of the accident.
Alley, who passed away in 2022 after a battle with colon cancer, recalled the incident with a mix of horror and amusement. She described how, as a young woman, she and her sister were informed that their parents were on their way to a Halloween party when the tragedy occurred. When Alley asked what their costumes were, she was stunned to learn that her mother was dressed as a ‘Black girl’ and her father as a member of the notorious racist organization.
Alley’s reaction to this bizarre revelation was one of laughter, claiming that it was the ‘greatest tribute’ that could be paid to her mother. The revelation has sparked outrage online, with many users expressing disbelief and disgust at the notion of blackface and Ku Klux Klan attire being considered appropriate costumes.
In addition to the disturbing nature of the costumes, the incident highlights the dangers of drunk driving. The car crash that killed Alley’s parents was caused by Cherrie White, who was driving over the legal blood alcohol limit. White pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge and was sentenced to one year in prison plus time in rehab.
The resurfaced interview serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences that can result from hateful and harmful actions. It also highlights the importance of addressing racism and discrimination in all its forms.
