Don Mancini is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. He is best known for creating and writing the Child’s Play franchise.

Having been a horror fan since his childhood, Mancini’s inspiration for Child’s Play were films like Trilogy of Terror and The Twilight Zone episode “Living Doll”; aware of the “killer doll” as a horror trope, Mancini realized that the concept had never been executed as a feature-length film with animatronic effects work.

Mancini wrote all seven films in the original Child’s Play film series, and was the executive producer of Bride of Chucky and Cult of Chucky. He began directing Child’s Play franchise entries with Seed of Chucky (2004), followed by Curse of Chucky (2013) and Cult (2017), and was the creator, writer, and director of the Chucky TV series.
