The character is depicted as an evil psychopathic doll (voiced by Brad Dourif), a serial killer named Charles Lee "Chucky" Ray, known as the "Lakeshore Strangler", whose soul is transferred inside a "Good Guy doll" toy following a voodoo ritual in order to avoid going to Hell. In the 2019 reboot, Chucky (voiced by Mark Hamill) is an AI doll, gone out of control, and determined to kill people.
