Publisher's Summary

Frank Cotton's insatiable appetite for the dark pleasures of pain led him to the puzzle of Lemarchand's box, and from there, to a death only a sick-minded soul could invent. But his brother's love-crazed wife, Julia, has discovered a way to bring Frank back-though the price will be bloody and terrible . . . and there will certainly be hell to pay. This book is the basis for the blockbuster movie Hellraiser.

Great story

It was so good that instead of sleeping I listened to the entire thing in 1 sitting. The cenobites had some really goofy voices but I quite liked the novelty

Hellraiser

Pretty much the movie. It was a good movie, so it was a good novella. Clive the narrator was only adequate but still cool to have him perform it.
