PS1 The Lost Hellraiser PS1 Game

[KayCannon]

Hi everyone, while browsing some ps1 classics to play on my phone I decided to revisit some oldies from back when I was a little kid. I downloaded every playstation game I could remember but then I remembered one that currently has me scratching my head because for the life of me I simply cannot find it anywhere. As the title of this post suggests, this was a videogame based on the 1987 movie "Hellraiser". I cannot remember many details about this game as it's been almost two decades since I first saw it, you see, my father used to bring home all kinds of pirated videogames that we could play in an old emulator called "connectix virtual game station". I remember he came home with a pirated copy of Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX and another game that kind of disturbed me a little bit. In the cover there was a cropped shot of Pinhead's face with the classic 'Playstation' callout to the side. I can't even remember if the cover said 'Hellraiser' anywhere. Anyways, he inserted the game in the CD tray and tested it. The only thing I remember was the game opening with a man (who I assume was Pinhead) raising his arms while some sort of magic thing happened. You spawned in what looked like a museum and I think there were crystal counters in a room at the very center. I honestly don't remember much since the game probably freaked me out enough to avoid watching anymore. Honestly, I wish I had more information but this is all I can remember without making stuff up.

Maybe it was never even a Hellraiser game, but rather a videogame some guy in a flea market burned to a CD and thought it would be a good idea to put a Hellraiser cover to. If anyone has any info or what I describe resonates with you, please let me know, I've been trying to remember more about the game but I simply cannot find anything about a Hellraiser title for the PS1. I'll ask my brother as he was also there when dad brought this videogame home.

Thank you for reading this, have a great night!

Dunno if this is at all related but it touched on unreleased Hellraiser games. Maybe you had something akin?

“Time to Play”: A History of Unreleased ‘Hellraiser’ Games

As soon as characters like Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger joined the multiplayer horror game Dead by Daylight, speculation began—especially among the hardcore horror fans—as to whether or not we would ever see Pinhead do the same. That speculation has gone on for years and, finally, those fans...

The only one I remember is the aborted attempt for the NES. I didn't know about the other ones. Maybe you had something unreleased? Or it cold have been some bootleg with Pinhead stuck on it.

I really want to see the Color Dreams game using the Wolfenstein engine. Heard about that about 15 years ago and still sounds awesome.

That sounds like some sort of childhood memory that got all mixed up with something you dreamed.

Is it Guardian of Darkness, maybe?
It has a bald man and starts in a museum, was also a PAL exclusive Cryo game so a bit obscure these days
Here's a link to some gameplay

Unfortunately it's not on cdromance but you can find it in the PS1 PAL romsets over on archive

Maybe it's a bit of a stretch but it could also be the extremely odd PS1 Devilman survival horror game...

Interesting! Will be adding.

As for the topic, I have no idea, it could be misremembering. But since OP has did not came back after making the question I don't feel like investigating further.
