Although it is not stated who his parents are, he was obsessed with puppets
from an early age and ran a puppet show in Paris. It was there he met Ilsa
his future wife, who regularly attended the shows as she had little better
to do, being kept under lock and key by her father the Swiss ambassador. Not long after they met Toulon saw a dying man outside his theatre, and
he helped him inside to help him recover. This was the major turning point
in Andre Toulon's life, however, as he turned out to be the immortal
Egyptian sorceror Afzel who stole the secret of life aeons ago from a higher
dimensional being, Sutehk. Afzel showed him how to imbue his puppets with
life, and he did so with the souls of his friends who are murdered by
Sutehk's acolytes, now hot on his tail. Eventually Toulon won that
particular battle, but eventually grew frightened of the forces he had
unleashed and left the puppets to their own devices as he and Ilsa went to
start a new life in Berlin. Here he returned to performing simple puppet
shows for children and had the happiest period of his life, until war broke
out in 1939. Many of his friends were executed in the war, among them Hans Seiderman a
bookkeeper, and Herman Strauss , a lorry driver killed for smuggling food to
Jewish camps. Fed up with the destruction of his life, Toulon returned to
the secrets Afzel taught him all those years ago and animated some of his
newest creations, among them Pinhead and Jester who allowed Strauss and
Seiderman respectively to live on. He then carried on his puppet show until
the Nazis banned it and shot his wife. This saw Toulon finally harness the
power of his puppets to kill. After being caught by Nazi soldiers, the
puppets went on a killing spree that eventually allowed them all to escape
to Switzerland, and then to America. However the Nazis still went after
Toulon, and after they traced him to a hotel he was staying in in Bodega
Bay, he knew the game was up. He shot himself through the head , but
not before sealing his puppets away in the wall.
