Candyman
The Candyman is the titular character and antagonist of the 1992 horror film of the same name and its sequels. He is the spirit of a former slave's son who, throughout each film, seeks to kill those who say his name five times while facing a mirror.
Daniel Robitaille was the son of a slave on a New Orleans plantation in the 1890′s. A wealthy landowner chose him to paint a portrait of his daughter, Caroline Sullivan. The two fell in love despite their racial differences and as a result Caroline became pregnant. Her father was furious and chased Daniel out of town along with a lynch mob. The mob caught Daniel and tortured him by cutting off his right hand with a saw blade. After they removed his hand they poured honey over his body from a nearby hive. The bees stung Daniel while the mob chanted “Candyman!”
Candyman is a tall African-American man wearing a trenchcoat, undershirt, gray pants, a pair of polished shoes and a bloody hook for a hand (which he uses to mutilate his victims). Under his trenchcoat he wears clothing similar to the clothes he had before and after he was killed. Throughout the films he is seen with different trenchcoats for some odd reason, even his hook-hand differs from film to film. Under his trenchcoat reveals his skinless ribcage, chest cavity, and internal organs that are being infested by the bees that live within him. The Candyman looks similar to a human man wearing just simple clothing, but the trenchcoat and the clothes he died in is a sign that tells his victims that he is an evil spirit.
