Frank kills Kirsty's father and wears his skin, the bone structure gives a person their features. Her father's skin would not have fit so nicely on Frank and he would not look like her father. [It's a supernatural force at work that allows the dead Frank to walk around and wear other people's skin like his own. Why shouldn't it also include a subtle rearranging of his features when necessary?]
Mistakes
Right at the beginning when Frank is with the dealer at a table, a green glass of tea appears/disappears randomly through shots, and they also change position, as does the cenobite box. See more...
Trivia
Industrial band Coil originally did the soundtrack for this movie, but it was turned down by the film studio. Clive Barker said: "The only group I've heard on disc whose records I've taken off because they made my bowels churn." See more...
Hellraiser (1987) - 4 corrections
Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

When Larry and Julia move into the house, they clear out everything, even all of Frank's possessions, yet somehow Frank is able to obtain his switchblade near the end of the movie. [You never actually see them clear out absolutely everything; it is just assumed that they do. It would be reasonable if one or both of them chose to hang onto personal effects that had belonged to Frank, as they did not know if he would someday come back to claim them.]
