Just ahead of Mad Monster Party Arizona, Doug Bradley has posted a wonderful photo to Instagram where he did test makeup for the cenobite Pinhead, his iconic role in the Clive Barker-created Hellraiser franchise. Bradley teamed up with special FX legend Tom Savini to create the new look, which will be the first time since 2005’s Hellraiser: Hellworld that Bradley will have donned the prickly look.

For many horror fans, seeing Bradley wear that makeup again is like seeing Robert Englund become Freddy once more. It’s a beautiful moment and a way of getting closure.

Another test makeup tonight in Pittsburgh. We're a little over a week away from Mad Monster Party Arizona! . #thepinheadexperience #pinhead #hellraiser #dougbradley #madmonsterparty
