In 1987's Hellraiser, the character is portrayed by English actor Doug Bradley, who went on to reprise the role in seven subsequent Hellraiser films. In The Hellbound Heart, Pinhead is described as an androgynous being with a feminine voice. Cenobites are usually only summoned to Earth through puzzle boxes, such as one called the Lemarchand Configuration (known as the Lament Configuration in the film series).
They exist in an extra-dimensional realm that is Hell or one of many versions of Hell that co-exist. Pinhead is one of the leaders of the Cenobites, said to be humans who were later transformed into demonic creatures blindly devoted to the practice of experimental sadomasochism.
The name was then used in press materials, tie-in media, and on-screen in some of the film's sequels, although Barker himself despises the moniker. The production and make-up crew nicknamed the character "Pinhead"-derived from his bald head studded with nails -and fans accepted the sobriquet. When Clive Barker adapted the novella into the 1987 film Hellraiser, he referred to the character in early drafts as " the Priest" but the final film gave no name. The character first appeared as an unnamed figure in the 1986 Clive Barker novella The Hellbound Heart. Pinhead (also known as Lead Cenobite or the Hell Priest, among other names and titles) is the main antagonist of the Hellraiser franchise.
