The only official Hellraiser book, featuring exclusive imagery and an Introduction by the legendary horror writer and the film's director Clive Barker. In 1987, writer/director Clive Barker unleashed Hellraiser, an instant classic which changed the face of horror cinema forever. The Cenobites soon returned, and their leader, the chilling Pinhead (played by Doug Bradley), rapidly became a worldwide icon. The Hellraiser Chronicles is a beautifully produced, full colour photographic companion to Hellraiser, Hellbound: Hellraiser II and Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth--featuring stunning, specially shot portrait photography unavailable elsewhere, and also script extracts, design sketches, behind-the-scenes stills and interviews. It is the only official Hellraiser book, with an Introduction by Clive Barker, and a must for all fans of the series.
I think if you are a Pinhead fan, you'll enjoy this book.

There are excellent photos from the movies, especially of Pinhead. There isn't a lot of text so if you're buying it for that reason, you'll be disappointed. There is a good write up in the last chapter about the characters and how the story evolved. I highly recommend this to Hellraiser fans. By the way, the author's name is Clive, not Clyde.
An excellent companion to the first 3 movies

It's all here in gory detail. The book also contains a lengthy introduction by Clive Barker and an article on special F/X in the Hellraiser movies by Stephen Jones. Any fan of the series will love this book.
