Origin

Creation
Twinkie was created by Lilah Sturges and Luca Rossi. She made her first appearance in House of Mystery Halloween Annual #2.
Major Story Arcs
House of Mystery
Twinkie and the other children arrive at the House of Mystery, where they are invited in by Cain. They are nearly freed of their curse by Madame Scarpignato, but Bobby kills her before she can complete the spell. The children are then pulled away to their next house, that of Madame Xanadu. They later prank Gwen Dylan and her friends. They become briefly trapped in Hell, where they beat up a demon.
Powers and Abilities
Twinkie is rendered functionally immortal and permanently child-sized by the curse, though she does appear to age.
