Completely random coincidence that's definitely unintentional, but it's funny that both Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Bubba Ho-Tep are set in Texas and deal with government conspiracies.
It'd be a neat head-canon if the Illuminati was behind John F. Kennedy's resurrection and, uh, "dyed" skin colour. Just random thoughts I had.
Another completely unintentional connection, the possessed Sonny and demon in Amityville II: The Possession look like Deadites. Even when these things aren't connected on purpose, it still manages to work out it seems.

Have you read the Hellraiser comics, Marrow? I know that the original 20 issues are all anthology stories set, logically, before the first Hellraiser (Pinhead out of commission between II and III).
I'm unfamiliar with Nightbreed as of now, so I'm not sure if that story is set before, or maybe after Hellraiser III? And of course, I'm probably going to have to include that with the Hellraiser comics... so ANOTHER 25 issues and a movie.

From what I understand the Hellraiser comics don't have any dates and can kinda of be placed anywhere. Pinhead isn't even in most of them.
As for Nightbreed, most of the comics seem to take place shortly after the movie so 1990, but I guess you could stretch it out to 1993.
The 2014 Nightbreed series appears to ignore the previous series and is its own continuity
(Sorry it took so long to reply my wifi is **** lol)

Well, I can always BS another Hell Priest in if it gets too problematic...

Oh, the Marshall Law crossover is set in the future apparently. Let's say 100 years, give or take.
So, in theory, this would be the future timeline.
2092 - Army of Darkness #1992.1, "Ash Beyond"
2093 - Pinhead vs Marshal Law: Law in Hell #1-2
2096 - Leprechaun 4: In Space (I know, just go with it)
2099 - Victor Crowley's Hatchet: Halloween Tales III, "Past Forward"
2127 - Hellraiser IV: Bloodlines
2455 - Jason X
2455 - Jason X: Special
2455 - Friday the 13th: Jason vs Jason X #1-2

TV Tropes (for Marshall Law):
20 Minutes into the Future: A recent gravestone says it's 2020, and America is still fighting off the Soviet Threat, nearly 30 years after it ended in Real Life.
OK, maybe like, 2025 then. It doesn't really matter. Then again, if San Francisco is destroyed... ah, what the heck? It's not like Marshall Law is even being considered canon here.

6 minutes in, C-M would be Candyman. Deleted scene though, so... not canon.
Is there a reason for him not just saying Candyman or Pinhead's name like the others?

Probably either a legal thing or he's just shortening it like "Fred", "Mike", etc.

The Saw cameo would probably be from Texas Chainsaw 3D of a cosplay, so not connected.
Puppet Master isn't connected. As you can see, it doesn't look like any puppet from that series.
Barry Simms dies in The Curse of Michael Myers, so I'm not sure how he's supposed to be alive in Penny Dreadful.
Among Friends isn't canon, similar reasons, meta stuff.
Cupid, well, from research it's a Smith Grove mental hospital but I don't know if it's literally Smith's Grove Sanitarium from Halloween. It's definitely a nod though.
Body Bags, we've been over. Haddonfield is a real place that exists and we don't know if that film takes place in Illinois. Definitely a reference though.
Gravy, same as above.
Butcher Boys... uh, decide for yourself.

Waxworks isn't canon, but the comic book adaptation can be!
https://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3500478/jason-voorhees-really-almost-appear-waxwork/
Creepshow, well, yeah. It has connections to Friday the 13th and Evil Dead, but it's kinda confusing. The TV series seems to have apocalypses that go unresolved from memory, and certain episodes strongly suggest that the Slasherverse is fiction. I don't know, too confusing, best ignored for now.

I think there should be two movies that you should include called Upgrade and the Invisible Man and are both directed by Leigh Whannel and both have easter eggs to Saw while The Invisible Man has an easter egg to Upgrade with a company from Upgrade being mentioned in an article in The Invisible Man

Texas Chainsaw 3D isn't part of this timeline, and even if it was, some child cosplayer pretending to be a Jigsaw acolyte isn't a universe connection.
Well, that's cool... and concerning, haha.
