Lengthy, good content Henry Lee Lucas letters appear to be
growing scarcer by the day. The good news for any collectors
who have been holding out for a particularly nice one is that I’m
currently posting on this site, the last of a spectacular batch of
handwritten Lucas correspondence, most of which hails from his
one-time fiancé Phyllis Wilcox. Throughout the early to mid 1990’s,
Lucas and Wilcox shared what would prove to be an unhealthy
obsession with one another, inspiring Henry to routinely pen
surprisingly personal text topped off with steamy romantic
passages. The relationship ultimately took a chaotic turn after
Henry managed to saddle his beloved with the unenviable task of
presenting herself to authorities as one of his best-known missing
murder victims, Becky Powell. The goal was to convince
investigators that they had mishandled Henry’s case by not
knowing Becky had been alive all along … the resulting fallout
would leave them with no choice but to release the convicted serial
killer from prison. The batch of letters I’m offering are from the
very time that this bizarre scheme was in motion and several of the
letters have amazingly bold references to the plot, especially given
the fact that Henry’s mail was constantly being monitored by the
prison mailroom staff. The scheme failed and became a major news
item and subject of the book “Dead Wrong”. As most serious
collectors know, exceptional content is the most essential factor
when it comes to the value of letters from notable persons. You’re
not likely to find more remarkable or fascinating Henry Lee Lucas
content than in his letters to beloved fiancé and accomplice Phyllis
Wilcox. Do take time to look over all the posted Wilcox/Lucas
letters … many have fascinating insights into Henry’s sly and
manipulative nature and you’ll never see more laughably gooey or
disturbingly creepy romantic dialogue.
