Hellraiser is a series of slasher films created by Clive Barker and starring Doug Bradley, with the original series beginning in 1987 and concluding in 2018. A reboot series began in 2022, currently consisting of a single film.

The series features demons called Cenobites, led by the evil Pinhead. A box called the Lament Configuration is used to summon Pinhead, who will usually kill the one who solved it.

Victims

Original Timeline

Before the films

  1. Unnamed Woman - Strangled by Jacques, so that he and his master Duc de L'Isle could use her body to summon the demon princess, Angelique. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)
  2. Duc de L'Isle - Killed by Angelique and Jacques. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)
  3. Phillip L'Merchant - Stabbed by Angelique. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)

Hellraiser (1987)

  1. Frank Cotton - Solved the Lament Configuration and was torn to shreds by Pinhead with the Lament Configuration. He went to hell, but was resurrected skinless when Larry's blood fell on the spot where he died.
  2. Oliver Parker (Strange Man 1) - Bashed on the head by Julia with a hammer
  3. Dave Atkins (Strange Man 2) - Bashed on the head by Julia with a hammer
  4. Raul Newney (Strange Man 3) - Bashed on the head by Julia with a hammer (which he survived), then blood drained by Frank
  5. Larry Cotton - Killed off-screen by Julia and Frank so that Frank could take his skin
  6. Julia Cotton - Stabbed by Frank, blood drained, then killed by Pinhead and the Cenobites on a mattress with the hooked chains, and went to hell
  7. Frank Cotton - Torn to pieces by Pinhead with his hooked chains, and went back to hell

Between Hellraiser (1987) and Hellbound: Hellraiser II

  1. Jacques - Heart pulled out by Angelique, for "Standing in Hell's way" due to the Merchant bloodline surviving. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)
  2. Unnamed Man - Angelique made him solve the Lament Configuration, and Pinhead pulled him through the gate to hell and killed him, presumably with his hooked chains. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)
  3. John Merchant - Decapitated by Pinhead with a scissor-like chain. (Seen in Hellraiser: Bloodline)

Hellbound: Hellraiser II

  1. Ian Green (Browning) - Blood drained by Julia
  2. Kyle MacRae - Blood drained by Julia
  3. Frank Cotton - Heart pulled out by Julia as revenge for his betrayal. He was in hell at the time, so presumably respawned in another area of the Labyrinth for more torment, until his soul became trapped in the Pillar of Souls.
  4. Julia Cotton - Sucked out of her skin into a disintegration portal, which opened spontaneously
  5. Female Cenobite - Stabbed by Channard Cenobite with one of his wormlike tentacles
  6. Butterball Cenobite - Stabbed by Channard Cenobite with one of his wormlike tentacles
  7. Chatterer Cenobite - Stabbed by Channard Cenobite with one of his wormlike tentacles
  8. Pinhead / Captain Elliot Spencer - Turned back into a human by Channard Cenobite, then throat slit with one of his tentacles. Pinhead later returned from the Pillar of Souls, and is said to have been too powerful to be completely destroyed and was "hiding and waiting" in the Pillar of Souls, unable to return unless someone's blood was absorbed by him.
  9. Dr. Phillip Channard / Channard Cenobite - When Tiffany solved the Lament Configuration, Leviathan severed part of Channard Cenobite's head, killing him and sending the mostly-headless body falling into the abyss below
  10. Leviathan - Was transformed into a giant Lament Configuration when Tiffany solved the Lament Configuration to turn it from a diamond into a box in front of Leviathan, and may have been among those deceased demons shown inside the Pillar of Souls, in which case he melted away when Pinhead reawakened. Debatable; it is unknown if he truly died or if he was simply stripped of his power, although he did lose all the souls trapped in the Labyrinth, and this was probably tied to the souls of the Cenobites, Frank, Julia, and the Puzzle Guardian appearing in the Pillar of Souls.
  11. Unnamed Worker - Chopped in half by the Pillar of Souls, coming out of the mattress. Presumably Pinhead was most directly responsible for this.
  12. Puzzle Guardian - Was shown trapped in the Pillar of Souls. It is unknown how he got there, but presumed that he got out (possibly by absorbing the second worker) to appear in Hellraiser III (and Hellseeker) to sell it to J.P. It is unknown if he truly died or not (before returning), or if any others besides Pinhead could have returned, although by the time the pillar was sold and Pinhead resurrected, all the souls on the pillar were turned to stone and only Pinhead is identifiable. It is also suspected that the Puzzle Guardian(s) in Hellraiser III, Hellseeker, and Revelations are different Puzzle Guardians, or Pinhead was the only one who was really inside the Pillar of Souls.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth

  1. Unnamed Teenager - Torn to bits by Pinhead using hooked chains after solving the Lament Configuration, though Pinhead was still dead and his soul trapped in the Pillar of Souls
  2. Brittany Virtue - Absorbed into the Pillar of Souls by Pinhead. First her skin was absorbed, then she was.
  3. JP Monroe - Stabbed in the head by Pinhead with his hooked chains, then blood drained so Pinhead could return to his original form. Revived as a Cenobite, Pistonhead.
  4. Terri - Killed off-screen by Pinhead. Revived as a Cenobite, Dreamer.
  5. Daniel Erwin "Doc" Fisher - Decapitated by Pinhead. Revived a Cenobite, Camerahead.
  6. Rick Bloodstone - Killed by Pinhead using barbed wire on his face. Revived as Barbie Cenobite.
  7. Jimmy "CD" Hammerstein - Killed by Pinhead throwing CDs at him like sharp projectiles. Revived as the Cenobite, CD.
  8. Unnamed Man - Killed by Camerahead with his camera lens.
  9. Cabby - Stabbed by CD with a CD, throwing them as projectiles (similar to how his original self died).
  10. Unnamed Cop - Stabbed by CD with a CD.
  11. Unnamed Cop 2 - Killed in explosion when Barbie Cenobite blew up a police car with his fiery breath.
  12. Unnamed Cop 3 - Killed in explosion when Barbie Cenobite blew up a police car with his fiery breath.

About 246 people at the club were killed by Pinhead during his rampage of terror.

Hellraiser: Inferno

  1. Jay Cho - Solved the Lament Configuration and was torn apart by Pinhead's hooked chains, off-screen.
  2. Joseph Thorne - Solved the Lament Configuration and had his face torn apart by Pinhead. He seemingly wakes up to find the whole thing a dream afterwards, but it turns out to be his own personal hell that he was sent to, facing his demons. He is also killed at least twice while in hell, and each time he respawns in the motel room at the beginning.

Hellraiser: Hellseeker

  1. Gwen Stevens - Shot in the head by Kirsty off-screen, to give her soul to Pinhead (in exchange for her own).

Hellraiser: Deader

  1. Katia - Shot herself in the head, and was resurrected by Winter, the leader of the Deader cult.

  4. Winter LeMarchand - Torn apart by Pinhead with his hooked chains.

  7. Mark Norrington / Twin Cenobite - Killed when Paul Merchant activated the Elysium Configuration, trapping all the Cenobites in the Space Station Minos with perpetual light as it closed into a pox and exploded.
