The story

Three years after the Candyman murders in Chicago, Professor Phillip Purcell writes a book about the Candyman legend and hosts a lecture event in New Orleans discussing his life. He reveals Candyman's real name to be Daniel Robitaille and that he was born to enslaved Africans after the American Civil War. When Purcell is light-heartedly challenged by a member of the audience, he jokingly summons the Candyman in the mirror-like reflection of his book.
