Hellraiser Podcast (hellraiser)

We have a chat with the co-creator and editor of the Hellraiser EPIC comics from the early 1990s, Dan "D.G." Chichester. We discuss how the project came about, working with Clive Barker, coming up with a Hellraiser "bible" for all the creators, and the epic journey that is The Devil's Brigade.

We discuss some recent news - mainly the outcome of Clive Barker's lawsuit to reclaim the rights to Hellraiser, as well as other bits and pieces including the new TV show and upcoming Blu-ray releases. We also share with you all a Hellraiser/Batman link that you probably don't already know about. Enjoy!

Happy Halloween! We have a fun and fairly silly chat, going through some listener questions and feedback. The conversation goes in many directions from favourite kill of the series, sex with cenobites and what kind of cenobite we would be (which results in two new inventions, The Seasoner and Razordisk!). We also have a bit of breaking Hellraiser/Clive Barker news and we review the short film The Torturer, written by Paul Kane and starring Paul T. Taylor.

We chat to Peter Atkins, the writer of Hellraiser 2, 3 & 4 and actor in Hellraiser 3 as the Bartender/Barbie Cenobite. In a very entertaining and candid interview we discuss a range of topics including working with Clive Barker, the original concept of Leviathan, the many different scripts for Hellraiser 3, how he got his job as Barbie, and the difficult experience and studio interference on Hellraiser: Bloodline.

We return to the EPIC comics for a self-isolated quarantined chat. Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus Peter & Phil have had to record separately and then splice the two halves together but we hope that it still sounds the same as usual. 

After a little bit of Hellraiser news about the current reboot in the works we launch into a discussion of Books 9 & 10, featuring stories by Lana Wachowski, Nicholas Vince, Scott Hampton and D. G. Chichester. Join us as we discuss Russian Roulette, the heavyweight champion of the world, and a dive back into the world of The Devil's Brigade.

We discuss Paul Kane's book Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell - a mash up between Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock stories and Clive Barker's Hellraiser mythology. Victorian versions of your favourite characters and situations from the franchise mixed with brand new elements and new Cenobites! How are all these missing persons cases linked? Who is the Engineer? Will Holmes be able to solve the mystery without succumbing to Hell's forces?
