Dejuan guy biography of barack

"Candyman" was originally conceived by Clive Barker, the visionary (and demented) mind behind the "Hellraiser" series.

The short story "The Forbidden" appears in Barker's 1984 – 1985 multi-volume omnibus "Books of Blood," telling the story of a mythical entity that reveals himself the instant his existence is called into question by Helen, a graduate student working on a thesis about the graffiti in a local housing development.

While the central concept was faithfully brought to the screen in writer-director Bernard Rose's 1992 film "Candyman," the movie carved out a name for itself by moving the story from the decay of the Liverpool projects into the towering concrete jungle of Chicago's infamous Cabrini-Green.

Whereas Barker's original short story leaves its villain's origins ambiguous, Rose's film dove headlong into tying a compelling urban legend to an all-too-real nightmare of American racial trauma, segregation, and violence.
