Description

This is the sixth part in my Slasher Horror collection, Pinhead from Hellraiser. Drawn in pencil, detailed in charcoal pencil and pen and with lettering in crayola black

Pinhead (who is a summoned spirit, like...)

Background: Leader of the dreaded Cenobites of Hell, Pinhead is pain itself. He derives great pleasure from the afflictions of others, especially when that affliction originates from him, and is a master in the art of slow, painful torture.
Pinhead is a demon from the very darkest corners of Hell, an embodiment of pain and torture, both emotional and physical. The pins in his head were applied by the Leviathon, the Lord of Hell, when a World War 1 survivor by the name of Elliot Spencer began to dabble in the dark arts of pain and pleasure, on that same day he ceased to be the man he was and became Pinhead.
The Black Pope of Hell must be summoned into the real world by the opening of the Lament Configuration. Thusly, he kills because he must, but also because it is what he exists for. He represents the sort of demon college nerds would call upon to destroy their oppressors whilst dabbling in the Dark Arts
Pinhead and his Cenobite minions are not without reason, they can be bargained with. If, for instance, you know of a soul who has escaped their company, they may be willing to trade your soul for theirs. They do not, however, take too kindly to being tricked, and will hunt you to the ends of the Earth should you try to evade your end of the bargain.
Pinhead's favourite weapon of choice in his line of work is his meat hook chains, long links of chains tipped with a wicked hook. With these at the command of his will he is capable of 'tearing the soul apart' to use his words. He can also summon forth other methods of painful torture, and is capable of transforming any human he finds particularily interesting into another Cenobite servant, such as Butterball, Chatterer and the Female Cenobite.
To destroy Pinhead, at least temporarily, one must recover the Lament Configuration and reverse the solution of the puzzle. This will cause the Cenobites and their master to return to Hell once again. In his endeavours against humanity, Pinhead has switched his motives towards this mystical puzzlebox as often as his plans. Sometimes he wishes to possess it, other times to destroy it, and other times to use it to open the pathway from Hell for all eternity. And stand in his way, and your suffering will be legendary, even in Hell
