There are many stories told about Boo Radley in To Kill A Mockingbird, and some are undoubtedly true. The following stories are probably rumors, rather than facts:
Boo bit off his mother's finger one night when he couldn't find any cats or squirrels to eat. (Chapter 4)
While his mother sat around the house and cried, "Boo slowly whittled away all the furniture in the house." (Chapter 4)"
"Boo was about six-and-a-half feet tall, judging from his tracks." (Chapter 1)
"He dined on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch." (Chapter 1)
His hands were bloodstained because once you ate a raw animal, the blood would not wash off. (Chapter 1)
