Doug Bradley
Douglas William Bradley is well known for playing the role of the Cenobite Pinhead in all eight Hellraiser films, as well as the character of Captain Elliot Spenser in two of the films Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988) and Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992). He is one of only two actors to play the same horror character eight consecutive times, the other being Robert Englund who has also portrayed Freddy Krueger eight consecutive times.

flixster.actor.pane.162691184 - flixsterBradley was born in Liverpool, England. He lives in London with his wife, Lynne, a son and a daughter, and a cat. He is a longtime close friend of horror/fantasy novelist Clive Barker, the two having met when they attended secondary school, and has worked with Barker in various capacities (from a theatre group to the Hellraiser films) since the early 1970s.
Bradley is also the author of an autobiography, as well as a volume Sacred Masks: Behind the Mask of the Horror Actor which explores the history of masks in society, and their applications in Horror Movies.
Due to his eventual skill at application and removal of the Pinhead appliances, he has been credited in some of the Hellraiser films as an assistant make-up artist named Bill Bradley, using his middle name.
