The Greatest Voyeur in the World
For 29 years he watched perhaps thousands of guests having sex at the Manor House Motel in Colorado.
For 29 years he watched perhaps thousands of guests having sex at the Manor House Motel in Colorado.
A Real-Life Peeping Tom
To be able to observe his guests, he cut small holes in the ceilings of more than a dozen rooms. The openings were covered with louvered aluminum screens. They looked like ventilation grilles, but were actually observation vents. He wrote down everything he saw and heard through this fake ceiling vents, and was never caught.
The story came out when Foos sent a letter to a journalist in 1980: “Sexually, I have witnessed, observed, and studied the best first hand, unrehearsed, non-laboratory sex between couples, and most other conceivable sex deviations during these past 15 years,” it read.
Foos wanted to be seen as a “sex researcher and social observer,” not a mere Peeping Tom and pervert.
Some of His Catalogued Observations
- 1973: 184 male orgasms and 33 female orgasms.
- Heterosexuals tended to have missionary sex.
- Only 3% of the guests failed to have sex.
