Biography[]
Hesse was a gum-chewing, blonde-haired gun runner and the partner of a man named Lincoln. He accompanied Lincoln in their Cadillac to meet with two potential buyers outside the Arcadia Toys warehouse. Their contacts, Judith Gray and Matt Cable, were both undercover police detectives, but the two men were unaware of this at the time. While Lincoln made leering comments in Judith's direction, Hesse laughed along and even stuck his gum-covered tongue out at Gray.
Cable revealed himself as a cop and tried to arrest them. Hesse distracted Cable by throwing his own shotgun at him, but Matt was able to shoot him in the leg before being gunned down by Lincoln.
Hesse hobbled into the warehouse and collapsed upon a five-pointed star etched upon the warehouse floor. The blood from his wound seeped into the cracks, resurrecting a malevolent demonic force that had laid dormant for sixty-six years. The demonic entity infused his power into the toys in the warehouse, which came to life and attacked Hesse. A toothy Jack-in-the Box clown named Jack Attack lunged at him, chewing off bits of his face. An equally savage teddy bear called Grizzly Teddy chewed off Hesse's fingers. As he died, his blood only served to empower the demonic source even more.
