About this listen

This book is a comprehensive history of the most successful straight-to-video horror franchise of all time: Puppet Master. It provides an in-depth exploration of all 14 films to date—including a made-for-TV crossover and a theatrical reboot—and the action figures, comics, and other merchandise that have helped to keep the brand alive for the past 30 years.

Puppet Master was the first film for independent producer extraordinaire Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment, launching a franchise and a micro-budget studio that have both continued to this day. What led to the film's success? How did a little movie about killer puppets, designed to cater to the then-booming video market, wind up surviving video stores themselves? How did a series that had never even had a theatrical entry wind up with an unusually successful toy series? All of these questions are answered.

Featuring new interviews with some of the biggest creative minds behind the franchise, this book is the ultimate guide to horror's most murderous marionettes.

Absolutely incredible, I truly didn’t want this book to end! I’ve been a PM fan for years, and there was so much information I was never aware of, a must purchase for anyone with even a slight interest in Puppet Master, Charles Band or Full Moon.

The ultimate comprehensive history of Full Moon’s greatest franchise!
