!!Female Cenobite
->Portrayed by: Grace Kirby(Hellraiser) Barbie Wilde(Hellbound: Hellraiser II)

One of the original four Cenobites. A raspy voiced female, with wires peeling back the skin around her throat.
----
* TheLancer: Before Chatterer took the role, she seemed to be Pinhead's second in command, and only one who spoke to him as an equal.

!!Butterball Cenobite
->Portrayed by: Simon Bamford

Last of the original four Cenobites. A grotesquely fat and mostly silent Cenobite, with a pair of sunglasses.
----
* DemotedToExtra: Actually had a big role, and the most dialogue of the original four in ''The Hellbound Heart''. In the films, he's mostly a LivingProp.
* EyeScream: Has his eyes sewn shut.
* SatelliteCharacter: The least active of the Cenobites, usually content to stand in the background.
* SinisterShades: What he hides his stitched eyes behind.

->Portrayed by: Doug Bradley
Main baddie of the series. A mysterious figure known as a Cenbite. Pinhead is an ''extremely'' dry witted bringer of the ultimate pleasure. Which just happens to take the form of horrific tortures. Formerly Captain Elliot Spenser of the British Expeditionary Force, his mind was shattered after participating in The Battle of Flanders. Developing a severe case of PTSD and SurvivorGuilt, Spenser buried his grief by seeking out increasingly depraved carnal pleasures. His dark journey would eventually lead him to the Lament Configuration, and his transformation into Pinhead.
----
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Like all Cenobites, his motives are very hard for humans to perceive.
* HellbentForLeather: In the most literal sense.

Pinhead never appears alone. When he is summoned, he is accompanied by a revolving door of likewise mutilated Cenobites. Later films portray him as their leader, or at least the head demon in charge.

!!Chatterer
Pinheads most constant Cenobite follower, and only one to appear more than twice. He appears as a tan figure, with the skin on his face stretched back by hooks. Obscuring his eyes, and leaving his gums and trademark chattering teeth exposed.
----
* TheDragon: Though the Female Cenobite seemed to occupy it at first, his constant appearances pretty much grant him the title by default.
* TheHeavy:
* TheVoiceless: He obviously can't talk with his disfigurement.
