Do you guys like this concept

A girl comes with her father to the Bodega Bay Inn to help clean for shutdown in the mid 1950’s and she discovers Andre Toulon’s secrets and the formula to the puppets. She cannot tell her father—for he is willing to take anything to boost his spot in the workforce. He knows about Toulon and the stories but think it’s all a hoax. Will she and the puppets team up and fight evil?

Stumbling across blogs like @tobladewithlove and @master0fpuppetz reawakened my enjoyment of the Puppet Master franchise, and in doing so, reminded me of a fic I created - and even partially wrote - back in high school. There was also a sequel in development (i.e. merely floating around in my head).

I never properly gave the main character a face, so I had to rectify that and finally draw her. *Her hair is light brown and her eyes are green.

This is Layla Blackmore, the distant niece of André Toulon on her mom's side of the family. She's a sweet girl who keeps to herself and hides her tough school life from her parents, believing they have enough to worry about due to the family's financial struggles. She's understandably frazzled after being given custody of the puppets, but she soon warms up to them. Given the fact that she's a teenager, the puppets are very protective of her. And of course, because this is a P.M. story, freaky shit inevitably happens. All of it amounts to a bittersweet ending.

By the time the sequel occurs (as mentioned in the drawing, it's a little over a year later), she's... changed. She's still sweet and loves the puppets dearly (and they love her, too), but she starts taking less crap from people, her dry wit is amplified, and she is seeing a therapist after the events of part 1. Also, she's now living with an aunt (because spoiler alert: her parents got killed during the first story) who she's having trouble connecting with.

But anyway, the general plot of part 2 is her and the puppets going to the Bodega Bay Inn where they meet a young psychic and - shock of all shocks - more freaky shit happens. Yeah, I'm talkin' the return of a classic series villain in zombie form.

There are other details pertaining to the plot of these fics, but I didn't want this post to become bloated.

Do you think the owners of the Bodega Bay Inn, whenever it's open, sell cheesy, nickelodeon, Rugrats style BBI merch? Like there's just a little gift shop that smells like the 80s. Like the carpet should have been changed 30 years ago?

I bet they do.

Bonus Blade.

Wahoo finally, heres a playlist. In the end, I decided to just focus on PM as a whole and not individual characters since it turned out a bit harder to do right, that and, I just had more songs fitting the (or my own) general feel than anything. Enjoy!

The Sterling Sisters: Just Cute Shit

I'm in the mood to write for the Sterling sisters again. There's no theme here, I just wanted to write cute moments about them and their puppet bfs. Also I just missed my girls, man.

--------------------

Marabelle & Six Shooter:

Night had fallen over the Bodega Bay Inn, leaving the grounds almost dead, save for the few that wanted the peace and quiet that the stars and moon could provide them.

In one little corner of the grounds, however, they would not find such quiet. Because this little corner was filled with music, laughter, and firelight.

What originally started as a large group bonfire, slowly dropped to a party of two as the hours passed. Then again, they all could've easily been driven away by Six Shooter's attempt to play the harmonica.

Marabelle however, in her slightly intoxicated state, found the "music" rather humorous as her boyfriend tried to play along with the song blaring from her phone.

When the song finally ended, so did her giggling fit.

"I don't know why I bought you that," she smirks.

"Cuz you love me," he slurs and takes a swig of his drink.

"Yeah, I'm staring to doubt that," a chuckle escapes her lips before she turns to roast another marshmallow over the flames.

Six puts his drink back down and swings an arm around her.

"Nah, you still love me," he chuckles himself before peppering her cheek in kisses.

"Yeah, I guess I do," Mara laughs, before her eyes fall onto the instrument in his hand. "If you try playing another tune from that harmonica, though, I'm throwing it into the fire."

"Aw, come on, darlin. I thought you liked when I played fer ya," he smirks.

"Only when you play well, Six," she flicks his hat up.

"Alright alright. How about this," he raises the instrument to his lips and plays out a tune he had heard so many years ago, he no longer remembered where he heard it. As such, he made an effort to play it nicely.

Marabelle looks at him fondly as he plays. He really did look handsome bathed in the orange flicker of the flames. In that moment, she couldn't remember a night as pleasant as this one.

--------------------

Angelica & Jester:

When getting ready for bed, everyone typically follows the usual routine of taking a shower, brushing your teeth and hitting the hay.

However, some would add reading to that routine. And then there were some that would add listening to someone read to them.

For Angelica and Jester, they couldn't think of a better way to close the night.

While he read aloud from the book in his hand, she laid curled up by his side clinging to every word.

He was a wonderful to listen to. He knew how to capture the emotions of characters and the mood of the scene. He could portray moments of suspense, sorrow, triumph, and joy perfectly.

Right now though, the scene in the novel was calm. The moment of serenity and gentleness of his voice were making her eyes feel heavy and yawn. Not to mention how comfortable she was.

"Ah, it would seem the story's boring you," Jester smiles at her cute, sleepy face.

"Hm, what? No, I'm just comfy that's all," Angie tries to push sleep away, but another yawn escapes her.

"If you say so," he teases, and continues to read. By the time he got to the end of the chapter, she had drifted off just as he had predicted.

He bites back a laugh, not wanting to wake her, and places a book in-between the pages he left off on and sets it on the bedside table.

He then removes his glasses just as she did before he started reading, almost as if she knew she was going to fall asleep, and places them on top of the book.

With a click, the lamp that bathed the room in a warm glow ceased, and was replaced by moonlight.

Before letting sleep take him, Jester places a kiss to Angelica's sleeping face.

"Sweet dreams, engel."

--------------------

Louisa & Blade:

Despite the rather dark history of the Bodega Bay Inn, it was still very beautiful. Of course, the main reason people found the hotel so breath taking was the cliffside that overlooked the beach and the gorgeous Pacific Ocean.

For Louisa, it was an artist's dream, despite the eerie feeling she got from the hotel the first time she saw it.

That was why she could be found somewhere on the grounds or within, either drawing in her sketchbook or with an easel set up.

Her favorite place to sketch and paint though, was by the gazebo , which now gave her the scene of the dazzling sunset.

Her paint palette was covered in oranges and yellows as she tried to capture it on her canvas, blue eyes occasionally darting between the two. She was in her own little world while she painted. Her concentration blocking out everything that wasn't her art.

It was something that Blade found cute, watching how focused she was. It always made him smile seeing Lou in her element. It also gave him time to set up and surprise her with a nice, romantic date.

He had brought a basket filled with her favorite food and some wine. He took the time to arrange the plates and pour out a glass for the two of them in the gazebo, before making his way over to her.

"It's beautiful, isn't it," he stood beside her, and glanced at her canvas. Louisa jumped a bit, before relaxing when she realized it was just her formerly puppet boyfriend.

"It is. Um...what do you think?" she shyly motioned to her art.

"Stunning as always, meine liebe. Although, I do think it is time for a break."

"Yeah, you're probably right," she nods and removes her apron.

He held his hand out to her, and lead her to the gazebo when she took it. She found it odd at first until her eyes took in what he had set up.

"Aw, Blade," Louisa's face felt warm and her free hand fidgeted with the edge of her sweater. He smiled at her and lead her to her chair, pulling it out for her to sit.

The two of them ate in the golden glow of the setting sun, the rest of the world being blocked out.

Lookie here, I drew my Puppet Master OC from the 8th grade

I don't remember the exact story or her name. I just know that she was watched by the Puppets from afar, at the Bodega Bay Inn was rebuilt and came into ownership of a young woman. The Puppets somehow ended up back there and watched the woman, Blade becoming smitten with her. The woman was murdered by her abusive spouse. Blade was distraught by her death and in turn, had the puppets kill her spouse. Blade then used some of his own formula and, combining it with the woman's brain matter, put her soul into a ballerina puppet the woman owned.

The doll was modified with removable feet and arms, that, when removed, there would be sharp knives instead of limbs, so that she could always defend herself.

I'm definitely gonna redo her story but yeah.

The spirit of the road house is alive at Buck’s Place in Sonoma.

On the west side of town there is a new yet old restaurant and bar called ‘Buck’s Place.’

Its recent incarnation as Buck’s is relatively new. But as an old building on the corner of Grove Street and Riverside Drive, it can be traced back over 115 years.

As noted by the Sonoma Historical Society in the early days of the 20th Century many families made their way to the El Verano area upValley to a restaurant and dance hall called “Little Switzerland.”

Built in 1906 it was the place to go especially during summer, to enjoy good food, libations and lots of dancing, mostly variations of the polka.

Named in honor of the scores of Swiss immigrants who made Northern California home after the Gold Rush, “Little Switzerland” continued in operation with different owners “off & on” so to speak, until 2017 when it became The Reel Fish House & Grill.

Before automobiles were ubiquitous across America, a train would bring people from San Francisco and surrounding towns into the valley for the summer season.

Still, even as people began to travel more by car into the 1920s & ‘30s, the essential ‘roadhouse’ was a destination that attracted both local and out-of-town visitors.

Something akin to a “Public House” or “wayside inn” in Europe, roadside places were common throughout North America from the late 19th Century onwards.

As historian Doug Beckstead noted on his Roadhouse history website. “Roadhouses sprang-up along the Yukon River in the 1890s to accommodate travelers.”

“At least eleven roadhouses once existed, he said, along the trail between Eagle and Circle in what is now Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve.”

“Many roadhouses doubled as a homebase and supply point for fur trapping and mining operations,” said Beckstead. “Others roadhouses were also woodcutting locations and fuel stops for the wood-burning sternwheelers plying the river in summer months,” he added.

With many rural areas in Northern California, some semblance of a roadhouse persisted and this was especially so for an area like Sonoma County. Russian River, Bodega Bay and winding stretches of road leading to Mendocino were ideal for something like a roadhouse or a roadside cafe to emerge.

Enter into the scene, just after World War II, an unusually “flamboyant” personality like that of Texas-native, Juanita Hudspeth Musson.

She and her husband Richard opened a restaurant in Sausalito that garnered as much notoriety as it did acclaim.

Over the next 10 years or more, ‘Juanita’ as she was simply called by everyone, moved her “Galley Restaurant” establishment to several locations.

Financial difficulties and contract disputes, including investigations by the IRS followed her as Juanita was a poor manager.

She was known to be of “eccentric” temperament which often resulted in her becoming either kind and hospitable or rude and belligerent to customers as well as staff.

Regardless, her presence in the San Francisco Bay Area was legendary.

In 1964 upon leaving Sausalito, she reestablished her restaurant to the El Verano area, near Fetters Hot Springs resort. For the next 40 years into old age, Sonoma was her home.

Still, just like what happened in Sausalito, Juanita’s in Sonoma would also have praise for good food, yet there also would be chaos that accompanied it. In 1969 her restaurant was damaged in a fire.

Eventually bouncing back by reopening again, Kathleen Hill, the food & wine editor for the Sonoma Index-Tribune noted.

“Regulars would either be shocked or thrilled to see a monkey on her shoulder. If not a monkey then a parrot here or there, or – when Juanita was so moved – a hoisting of her muumuu to show off her enormous bosom.”

When Juanita died in 2011, a memorial gathering was held at “Little Switzerland.”

Ironically, as “Little Switzerland” became yet another new restaurant venue in 2019 as “Reel & Brand,” new owners and business-partner investors became entangled in litigation in 2022.

Hopefully the “ghost of Juanita” and the chaos that underlined her restaurant ventures in Sonoma will finally be put to rest as Buck’s Place takes over such a storied spot.

The ambiance is welcoming as the food is delicious. Basic Italian-American food, with a bit of artesian sensibility. The Italian meatball sandwich is very satisfying, especially with fresh basil and a sesame seed toasted roll.

With a glass of sparkling red wine out on the back patio listening to live music, what could be better on a summer afternoon or evening!

Yes! The spirit of the road house continues. Any visitor to Sonoma, may this be an invitation. If it so happens that the upscale experience of a winery tour, is tiring- that of the “tasting room experience,” then dear visitor, get-away from the plaza, to relax and be more easy-going of a different place and time, like the rural Sonoma of sentimental legend. Make a visit to Buck’s Place at 401 Grove Street on “the springs-side of town, El Verano. See Buck’s Place website for details.

Charles Beck - Salmon Creek Circa 1900

So once again here is a view from the hills overlooking the past Salmon Creek. The distant bridge is the first one build possibly in the 1880s. In 1906 the earthquake twisted it out of alignment but the pilings were reset and the bridge came back in use. There is one house, the first house, which served as stage stop, inn, and distillery. Built in 1868 it is still there. Before Hwy One was made, the road from Bodega Bay, then called Bay, ran next to what later became sand dunes. Before the 1906 quake, where sand now is, was ranch land. On my early wanderings through the dunes in the low spots, I would see fence posts that marked property divisions. I would like to go back in time but can't. Painting it as I think it was is my journey.

And the fact it’s a legit place where weddings and other huge gatherings are held is just freaking great, wonder if they have anything PM related in the place somewhere…..but just to think of that we’re true there would just be puppets in some fancy gatherings, making the hotel look hella nice hahah

New Blood of Blade update!

When Blade has fed on his six victims, I had this idea where he eats some families dog one full moon night. As he feeds off this dog, Blade also starts to chew on the bone. The dog fights Blade for a minute btw before this happens, have to have that. Blade had killed a family of four prior to this dog. But once Blade finally kills this poor dog, he then of course feeds on it.

When Blade comes limping and breaking back to normal the next sunrise, he starts to puke up bone painfully with run down elixir and pounds of blood. I figured he won’t be able to fully break down bone with the gears that make him run. So, this would quickly result into puking.

Jester sees this as he peaks from a window from the hotel, scared as he is, Jester runs off. As he runs off, Blades still outside of the hotel wondering if anyone was watching his disturbing transformation back to his gothic self durning most of the days and nights. Dull dried and runny elixir and blood on his chin and lips, Blade would breathe heavily until he was back to himself, wondering back into the Bodega Bay Inn.

(The dogs a broader Collie btw, that was distinctly the dog I thought of for this to happen for the first time XD)

The Sterling Sisters: How They Kiss Their Puppet Men

Puppets are in human forms btw. I know it's implied but just so you know!

Marabelle: When Mara wants a kiss, she'll get that kiss. She'll just walk up to Six and yank him by his collar to kiss him. This usually results in the two of them moving away to someplace more private to bone because they're horny little shits

Angelica: Two words: lipstick marks. Lipstick marks everywhere. Angie loves to just hold Jester's face in her hands and pepper it in kisses. Afterwards, he'll strut around the Bodega Bay Inn with pink lipstick smudges all over his face and glasses askew

Louisa: As you can imagine, Lou's kisses are quick and as shy as she is. She usually places a quick peck to Blade's cheek before he heads off to work or something, in which he will return it with a kiss to her forehead. Also, if he ever kisses her in public, her brain short circuits
