Origin[]
Lizette was the owner of a waxworks show in a carnival that featured unique monster statues which had actual blood from real monsters mixed into the wax. However when Brett Hannigan and his partner in crime Nita Dell robbed the main offices of a carnival, they decided to hideout from the police in her hollow statues of a werewolf and tigerwoman respectively which are destroyed by the police during a shootout.
Lizette was furious that her irreplaceable statues were destroyed. So she used black magic written in her Salem witch ancestor's handbook to summon demons. the demons help her transform Nita and Brett into the monsters they hid in so that Lizette could get revenge on the police for destroying her statutes. The two crooks awaken in the prison hospital transformed and go on a killing spree with the cops helpless to stop them in their new bulletproof monster forms.
Lizette decides however to collect the bounties on the creatures heads now that her revenge is complete. So she has her demons summon the creatures to her tent. The witch then convinces the duo to drink witch's brew in order to restore them to their human forms. Instead it makes them go into a berserk rage causing them to kill each other. when the police examine the bodies though both Nita and Brett have returned to their human forms.
The police then charge Lizette with the murder of two wards of the state. Instead of going with the police she runs into her burning cauldron and burns to death ironically dying the same way her ancestor did.
