Spook Jones was born June, 6 1984 in Ft. Worth, TX to Theodore Jones and Cynthia
Scrooge. He and his twin brother Skillet grew up playing various sports and instruments. At the age of 12 they had each found their instruments of choice. Spook on drums and Skillet on guitar. Spook soon became infatuated with hip hop beats and jazz drummers. By the age of 15 he'd started using drum machines and began to write, produce, and arrange songs on mom's computer. In 2000 he made his first "real" song Porn Kitty. The song was written about his 2 sexxy cats Asia and Kobe, that his mom had gotten tired of and took to the pound. Spook was very sad and angry, and would not talk to his mom for weeks. His depression threw him into a bout with alcohol and various other drugs. Rampage in Rockwall is one song in which this is very evedent.
On Aug. 4 2002 Spook was found by Skillet laying on his bathroom floor naked, covered in his own puke, blood, and feces. He had simply partied way too much the night before and choked on his own vomit.
Spook Jones is survived by his twin brother Skillet, who now plays guitar for super rock group Pornographic Priestess. Older brother Bruno, younger sister Colleen Rene, and parents Ted and Cindy.
A quote from Skillet about his brother Spook- "He was the crazy one of us. The motherfucker always started shit and was never afraid to die or try something new. 40 ounces and plush sacks of weed were his thing. Booty bitches and fat sluts. Necrophilia and chicks with dicks. Alot of people would be glad he's now burning in hell. That's why I'm happy we still have all the unmixed, unfinished music he never spent enough time on to remind those people that his evil lives on."
