OBJECTS OF OBSESSION:
 • The "Lament Configuration" is a puzzle box that, when solved, opens a gateway to Hell & brings forth the Cenobites.  The box is said to offer the user "an experience beyond the limits; pain and pleasure, indivisible".  Although, the price for such experience is your soul & an eternal imprisonment in Hell.  The box works both ways as it can send the Cenobites back to Hell, but in the hands of the Cenobites, it can bring forth untold & unimagined horrors.
 • The "Elysium Configuration" was designed by Phillip LeMarchand in order to destroy the Cenobites as LeMarchand was the creator of the "Lament Configuration" not long beforehand.  He saw the horror of its power and worked to undo what he had done.  It took centuries for this box to be constructed as it was passed down through the bloodline of what became the Merchant family lineage.  In the distant future, Paul Merchant was able to construct it out of Earth space station Minos, and once it was put into motion, the Cenobites on board the station (which included Pinhead) were believed to have been destroyed.
