Tolstoy (The Delightful Bag)

Tolstoy was an animate bat puppet (PROSE: The Delightful Bag, AUDIO: Bat Out of Hull)
In the 1930s, Barry Lurcher was taken in by Grenoble, the owner of Grenoble Toys, after he was abandoned by his mother. Over the years Tolstoy, who resided in the shop, possessed Barry. When Barry encountered Brenda he learned that she had no soul, as a result of this discovery he and Grenoble attempted to enlist her to spend eternity with them and other soulless puppets in hell. However, Brenda was able to escape their attempts and they ventured to hell alone. (AUDIO: Bat Out of Hull) In 1972, Frank Lurcher performed with Tolstoy at the London Palladium.

While working for George Mistrise, Tolstoy met Iris Wildthyme, Panda, and the Manleigh Halt Irregulars when Mumu Manchu came to Manleigh Halt. (PROSE: The Delightful Bag)
