Answer: The Cenobites

They are first identified as such by Frank Cotton as he says, "The Cenobites gave me pain and pleasure indivisible." The Cenobites describe themselves as "explorers of the further region of experience". To sum it up, they're devoted toward analyzing human sensations- and definitely not the more pleasant ones at that.

Answer: hear it from your own lips.

Years earlier, Frank had solved the puzzle box. Doing so summoned demons called Cenobites. He'd been hoping for new experiences and sensations and he got them. Unfortunately for him, they were in the form of torture. When Kirsty solves the puzzle she tells the Cenobites that Frank has escaped them. They're surprised, and tell her that nobody escapes them. She claims she can prove it. They let her lead them to Frank on the condition that she can make him confess his identity.

From Quiz "Hellraiser" General Questions

Answer: Pinhead

Pinhead is very simply a Cenobite who has had a lot of nails planted into his face. Chatterer functions as the 'right hand man' of sorts, and he gets his name from having had his lips torn off, permanently exposing his teeth which endlessly chatter. Butterball is the chubby Cenobite wearing sunglasses, who never actually has any dialog lines. Finally, the Engineer is the name of the giant monster with enormous fangs who pursues Kirsty in the wall of the hospital. There is also a female Cenobite, though her name is never revealed during the movie.

Yep, this story originally appeared in a book series called 'Night Visions'. It has since been published individually a number of times all over the world.

From Quiz "Hellraiser" General Questions

Answer: Close the box

Simply un-solving the simplistic puzzle within the box will reverse the effects that solving it caused. It will basically banish the Cenobites in the process. This is how Kirsty ends up "defeating" the Cenobites in the end- she un-solves the box much to Pinhead's dismay and then uses it to essentially remove the Cenobites one by one.

From Quiz "Hellraiser" Solve the Puzzle

Answer: Lead Cenobite

Doug Bradley plays the lead Cenobite. He agrees to their deal with Kirsty, and informs her of the consequences she'll face, should she break their agreement. If she fails to get Frank to confess his true identity, they'll take her life instead of his. The lead Cenobite has pins protruding from his head. That particular fashion statement led to his being given the nickname "Pinhead" by fans of the film. Oddly enough, the pins weren't part of the original design. They'd intended to have spikes protruding from his head. They drew a grid on a mold of Doug Bradley's head in order to be sure the spikes would be symmetrical. They then placed pins in it to indicate where the spikes would be placed. They thought this looked even more sinister and bizarre than their original idea, so they went with it. Clive Barker and Doug Bradley began their friendship back during their high school days.

From Quiz Hellraiser

Answer: 'Swallowing' a lit cigarette

Answer: He was discharged from the Channard Institute and never heard from again

From Quiz "Hellraiser" Solve the Puzzle

Answer: Frank

Frank says this while he's pretending to be Larry. He does so in an attempt to fool Kirsty into thinking that the body upstairs is Frank's rather than her father's. A bit of a trick question, I'm afraid.
