Butterball Cenobite

Butterball Cenobite

Butterball is a character from Clive Barker's Hellraiser franchise. He is a Cenobite, a group of extradimensional beings who experiment in forms of extreme sadomasochism as part of a religious devotion to hedonism. He is one of the first Cenobites introduced in the franchise, appearing both in the initial novella, The Hellbound Heart, as well as the films Hellraiser and Hellbound: Hellraiser II. He also made an appearance in Clive Barker's comic book sequel to Hellbound, the Hellraiser comic book series published by BOOM! comics in 2011. Despite appearing to be the second-in-command of the Cenobites in The Hellbound Heart, in the film and comics he primarily functions as a member of Pinhead's entourage.
