Puppet Master

                                                                 

 

             I'm the master, and you're the puppet!

 

The story begins at the Bodega Bay Inn in California of 1939. French toymaker Andre Toulon realizes that he is coming towards the end of his life. Having perfected the craft of the ancient Egyptian Rites of Afterlife, Toulon has created a group of small fully articulated puppets that can act independent of Toulon’s influence or of any other mechanical means of assistance.
Two assassins converge on the hotel ready to steal Toulon’s puppets as well as his secrets from him. A puppet warns Andre of this from an upstairs window and the aged toymaker gets to work. Removing a piece of paneling from the wall, Toulon packs away all of his puppets as well as the scrolls detailing the Rites of Afterlife. Before the assassins can break down his door, Toulon puts a gun to his mouth and blows his brains out.......

We the find ourselves in December 1989. Four psychics discover that one of their own colleagues in the field of psychic research has died. Neil Gallagher had apparently ended his life in much the same way Toulon did over fifty years ago. The four friends gather at the Bodega Bay Inn to offer comfort to Gallagher’s widow, Megan. Alex, Dana, Frank and Carissa Stamford.  As the group settles down for the evening stange things start to occur.....the dolls converge on the guestst and theybegin to meet sticky ends....and if thisisnot enough Neil's corpse begins to appear.....

Meanwhile Megan shows Alex the diary of Toulon in the attic...and they learn that Gallagher had found Toulon's diary and performed the rite over his body before shooting himself.  Meanwhile the puppets work is far from done....will anyone survive at the Inn?????
