When André turned 13, his parents scrounged up just enough money to buy him a ticket to the Central Paris Theatre. Enamored by the art form, André quickly became obsessed with the silver screen, working tirelessly to act his way to Hollywood. There, while filming A Cosmic Journey, he experienced inexplicable and world-altering happenings. As the lines between reality and fantasy began to blur in his mind, his peer and friend, Betsy Baxter, suggested a change of scenery. At her recommendation, André packed up and moved to the small town of Arkham, Massachusetts for a much-needed break.
