CandymanOverviewHelen Lyle, a Chicago graduate student who is researching urban legends, hears of a local story about the Candyman. The legend claims that Candyman can be summoned by saying his name five times while facing a mirror, whereupon he will kill the summoner with a hook jammed on the bloody stump of his right arm. She encounters two cleaning ladies who tell her about Ruthie Jean, a resident in the notorious Cabrini-Green Public housing in the United States who they claim was killed by Candyman. Helen's research turns up 25 other murders in the area similar to Ruthie Jean's. Later that evening, Helen and her friend Bernadette Walsh, skeptical of Candyman's existence, call Candyman's name into the mirror in Helen's bathroom; nothing happens.Release dateSeptember 11, 1992URL slugcandymanGenresDramaHorrorThrillerAfbeeldingenPosterAchtergrondGeen afbeeldingPictogramGeen afbeeldingBannerCast & crewCast — Trevor Lyle — Anne-Marie McCoy — Helen Lyle — Billy — The Candyman / Daniel Robitaille — Bernadette 'Bernie' Walsh — Clara — Harold — Policewoman — Professor Philip Purcell — Archie Walsh — Jake — Monica — Stacey — T.V.
