Story Synopsis

Hellraiser is a horror lover’s “hideous treat.” By using a mysterious Chinese puzzle box called the Lament Configuration, Frank Cotton’s curiosity raises the hellish and infamous Pinhead (Bradley) and his Cenobites—servants of the Lament Configuration. Frank escapes the Cenobites by feasting on bloodshed in the house that his brother Larry (Robinson) and his wife Julia (Higgins) moved in to. But when Kirsty (Laurence), Frank’s niece, gets possession of the box, she leads the Cenobites to their escaped prisoner, before they decide to take her instead.
