(The various configurations of one of the more recent puzzle boxes, it features six distinct, shifting configurations, each tied to a specific gift offered by the Cenobites to those who provide human sacrifices. The box demands five sacrifices to reach it's final form. Each configuration change requiring a new victim, marked by a blade from the box.

The Lament Configuration is the Hellraiser puzzle box's original cubic state. Lament signifies "life," and choosing this configuration appears to be the only way to escape from the Cenobites' clutches with one's sanity mainly intact.

The Lore configuration is a twelve-sided geometric shape (a dodecagon/dodecahedron variant) associated with the 'Curse of Knowledge'. This includes horrific awareness of the strange cosmology of existence and of Hell itself. Once this knowledge has been learned it cannot be "unlearned", causing a unique form of gruesome insanity.

The Laudarant Configuration is a star-like form composed of dual, merged pyramids, associated with the "gift" of love, often resulting in perverse, unwanted outcomes.

The Liminal Configuration is a thin, long, eight-sided prism with star-shaped bases, dedicated to hedonistic sensation. It takes the form of two intersecting shapes, releasing a claw-like device that impales the sacrificer with a metallic contraption that "stimulates the senses".

The Lazarus Configuration resembles a sloping rectangular prism, an altered, elongated box, aimed at resurrection, bringing someone back to life, though often as a "skinless" entity.

The Leviathan Configuration is a diamond, rhombus-shaped, eight-sided structure representing the apex form, used to summon the deity itself for the sacrificer to receive a final reward of power...)
