www.thethreshold.com or directly through
www.hellraiseronline.com . The game challenges players to solve the Lament Configuration, the puzzle box that opens a gateway to Hell. The game starts as a simple puzzle that gamers must solve each time they visit the Website. Solving the puzzle is the first step in the complex game. "Hellraiser is one of the best-known entertainment brands in the world!" said Larry Kasanoff, chairman and CEO of Threshold Entertainment and TheThreshold.com. "We're proud to further the development of the franchise with the first ever online game." Eric Gardner, CEO of Panacea Entertainment who brokered the deal, said, "Hellraiser is the quintessential online property both demographically and conceptually, and via TheThreshold.com Larry Kasanoff has provided us with the ideal virtual theater."
