Aldon Webber is the mentally unstable main antagonist of the 2013 horror movie Crawlspace. He suffers from severe mental illness brought on by the death of his children and instead of seeking help he instead became a recluse, hiding away in his own attic. When his home is sold to a new family it sparks a full-blown descent into murderous psychosis and he begins to methodically stalk and murder those that get in his way.
He was portrayed by Steven Weber, who also portrayed Jack Torrance in the 1997 TV miniseries adaptation of The Shining.
Biography[]
Aldon Webber was once a family man with a loving wife and two children. However, one day tragedy struck as his children drown in the garden swimming pool. This broke him and his wife, matters were made worse when Tim Gates forced the Webber family out of their home due to his own desire for a "dream" home.
This caused a psychological breakdown in Aldon and he snuck into the attic, where he squatted even as the Gates family moved in, observing them and sneaking down every now and then for food and to try and steal possessions, as time progressed his sanity rapidly dropped and he became more daring and psychotic in his activities, terrorizing the Gates by turning appliances on and off, messing with alarms and taking pictures of them while they slept.
When an elderly neighbor spotted Aldon in the garage she warned the Gates, but Aldon oversaw the transaction and left the house, breaking into the old woman's home and murdering her using her own vacuum cleaner before returning to the attic.
