- An anonymous man told Vulture that he and Kevin Spacey had a sexual relationship in 1983, when he was 14 and Spacey was 24.
- The man alleged that Spacey attempted to rape him, and they never saw each other again after that.
A man, who has chosen to remain anonymous, alleged that he and Kevin Spacey had a sexual relationship when he was 14 years old, and that Spacey attempted to rape him, in an interview with Vulture Thursday.
Vulture worked to verify this man's story in various ways, which are detailed in the interview. In an email to Vulture, Spacey's attorney wrote that, "Mr. Spacey absolutely denies the allegations."
This anonymous account follows multiple other allegations of sexual misconduct against Spacey.
Spacey's accuser told Vulture he met the actor when Spacey was working as a guest teacher at a weekend acting class he attended in 1981, when he was 12 and Spacey was 22. He then met Spacey again while in line for Shakespeare in the Park in 1983, he said, and this time Spacey gave him his number, and they began a relationship.
The accuser recalled to the publication going to Spacey's apartment and beginning a sexual relationship almost immediately.
"My memory is that we met up three or four more times with, again, proclamations that we loved each other," he said. "Also, [he was telling me] that there were producers who were really interested in me as an actor and that he wanted to get me auditions."
The man said that while the two had sex multiple times, on one occasion, Spacey told him he wanted to have sex, and tried to penetrate him, despite him telling Spacey that he was not interested.
"Luckily, I threw him off me," the man said. "I saved myself in many ways in that minute from the much deeper trauma that would've come from having been raped."
Kevin Spacey did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.
