Event Backstory

Dr. Oddfellow served as the icon of Halloween Horror Nights 32, tying into all of the scarezones and one of the haunted houses that year: Dr. Oddfellow's Twisted Origins. Thus, a lot more of his backstory was revealed.

Dr. Oddfellow would strive to harness the power of the Zodiac. He would draw symbols on his face as well as his face in an attempt to gain their power, as well as the power of immortality.

In the 1920s, Dr. Oddfellow ventured into an ancient jungle called "The Jungle of Doom". There, he found a crystal skull in an ancient temple, which granted him powers. Using the skull, he twisted the flora and fauna of the jungle, turning them into his own abominations. It is implied that this was the skull that would eventually sit atop his Cane of Souls, one of his main sources of power.

In 1939 during the Dustbowl, Dr. Oddfellow set up his carnival in a small rural Midwest town. There, he mutilated hundreds of people (some of which were some of his own performers), turning their bodies into grotesque versions of the Zodiac signs. He burned down all of the posters and advertisements with the name of his carnival to cover his tracks and created Zodiac symbols all over the carnival. These symbols contained great amounts of power. This ritual granted him the power of immortality and of the Zodiac.

It was at this time also that Dr. Oddfellow killed Jack the Clown. While killing Jack, Jack scratched Oddfellow's face causing some of his blood to fall onto Jack, making Jack immortal as well. This scar would remain on his face for eternity.

Dr. Oddfellow would travel to the Zodiac Dimension and take it over, twisting all of the creatures there into his own evil creations. He would also be able to use his powers to change his forms over the years, becoming different creatures. However, no matter what he turned into he could always be identified by the scar Jack left on his face in 1939.

In the 1940s, Dr. Oddfellow would ship a crate to his warehouse in a shipping yard in San Francisco. The crate would feature the Zodiac symbol, and would contain a wide variety of monsters. Various oddities would escape from the crate, slaughtering all of the workers in the shipping yard and causing mass destruction.

In 1961, Dr. Oddfellow disguised himself as a vampire named Earlow Wolfe in order to infiltrate a secret group of vampires. He made up a backstory in which he claimed to be a circus worker whose circus was attacked by vampires in 1938, causing him to turn into one himself. He successfully fooled the Vampire Council that he was a vampire. In 1968, Oddfellow, now a part of the council, stands up to fellow councilmember Olatto, demanding that he lets the vampires go on a frenzy and feed on whoever they please without restraint. As he does this, the symbol on his head glows for a moment then fades. He did all of this in order to gain power over Olatto in the council.

In 1969, Dr. Oddfellow would unleash the vampires during a music festival in a small town in upstate New York called Music Fest, causing mass destruction and chaos. It is also heavily implied that Dr. Oddfellow killed and sacrificed Olatto, and used his blood to increase his own power over vampires.

When Jack killed Oddfellow in 2007, this sent him into a dark dimension for 16 years. In 2023, he would escape the dimension, due in part to the powers he gained from killing Olatto. He would reclaim his Cane of Souls and announce to the world that he would offer anyone who wants to immortality. He would show them images of fear and terror, which would break their connections to the mortal world. No one would be able to resist immortality, allowing him to gain a legion of followers completely under his control.

It was also implied that he is a servant of Fear, and that everything he does is a part of his will. Thus, Oddfellow would occasionally release various monsters throughout the Halloween Horror Nights events to cause chaos and do his bidding.
