About this episode

We’re opening the Lament Configuration and diving headfirst into Clive Barker’s iconic Hellraiser (1987)! In the first episode of our journey through the Hellraiser franchise, we explore the inspirations behind this groundbreaking horror classic, the incredible mythology and lore surrounding its characters, and the unsung heroes and villains who helped bring this twisted world to life. We’ll dig into the film’s unforgettable practical effects and SFX, the creation of the Cenobites, fascinating behind-the-scenes stories and trivia, the movie’s troubled and unconventional production, and plenty more. From Frank and Julia to Kirsty, the Engineer and, of course, Pinhead and the Cenobites, there’s far more to Hellraiser than meets the eye. The box is open. We have such sights to show you.
