How to Draw BILLY THE PUPPET (Saw) Drawing Tutorial

There are those horror movies that are more psychological like The Blair Witch Project, The Others, or Paranormal Activity, and then there are those slasher movies that are gory more so than they are scary. The SAW movie franchise is that latter, and it introduced two now-iconic horror characters to pop culture: JIGSAW (or JIGSAW KILLER), and BILLY THE PUPPET. In this two-part tutorial, I show you how to draw these two step by step!

CHARACTER BIO:

Billy is a puppet that has appeared in the Saw franchise. It was used by John Kramer to communicate with his test subjects by delivering recorded messages, often appearing on a television screen or occasionally in person to describe the details of the traps and the means by which the test subjects could survive.

In the film series, before becoming the Jigsaw Killer, Kramer was believed to have created Billy to be given as a toy to his unborn child. However, Jill, his wife, is shown to miscarry after being hit in the stomach by a swinging hospital door due to Cecil ramming it open without looking. Kramer’s unresolved anger was likely a primary motive for creating the puppet as a vehicle for his instructions trap victims. The traps he created can be seen as a manifestation of his anger with people who he feels don’t appreciate having their life when his unborn baby was killed before having a life of its own.

Although it has never actually been identified in the films, “Billy” is the name by which it is referred to by writers, directors, and members of the cast and crew on documentaries and interviews. The name was given to it by its real-life creator James Wan, who is the director and co-writer of Saw. Some claim that the name is spelled “Billie”, though Wan himself spells it “Billy”.
