Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, thanks to my brother I'll officially back to playing Dead by Daylight for a few months. It was recently confirmed the next killer will be licensed. I seen a couple of stuff related to it that really limits who possibly could be next. I figured since I'm a huge fan of horror movies as well as one of many admins on The History of Horror group on Facebook to throw out some guesses.
This is not in order to clarify. I will take my time explaining stuff about each character before talking about how it might be them coming to the game soon. At least one is lucky going to be it or the worst case scenario it isn't any of them at all. We don't know much to begin with. I will be naming a couple names often thrown around recently.
1. Pennywise (IT)
Previously, they attempted to get him while IT movies were being made. At the time, they got turned down that led to the creation of The Clown. I know a lot of people won't like there would be two clown characters. Pennywise is more in the same boat as Freddy since they could represent any form of fear they want.
It wouldn't surprise me the man himself Stephen King does the official announcement. He loves to cameo in adaptations of his works. Hell, they might get allowed both mini series & movie look in game as well. Pennywise is just one of those that must be in this game. There is a lot of possibilities they could do with him, it's scary.
2. Candyman (Candyman series)
By now everyone knows a spiritual sequel aka reboot is happening that's just called Candyman. Tony Todd is in that movie, he could reprise his role for this game. Considering, he had stated in an interview that Candyman was his favorite role. Not a lot of people knows he originally from a book by the same man who created what became known as Hellraiser series.
Yes, Clive Barker created two of the scariest horror icons of all time. A lot of people are quickly jumping on the number 4's shape as well as it's goldish appearance. Let's be honest, we do need someone representing insects in this game. I do think Candyman would bring that as well as a hook being a weapon to the game.
3. Pinhead (Hellraiser series)
Pinhead is another huge request by the community to join the roster. It also would bag the question just how powerful is The Entity. This being even got Freddy to kill for it, whose a god like being in the dream world. We are going bigger with a being that represents order in Hell. The real question is how much of Hell would The Entity be able to take to turn that into it's own realm?
Pinhead does have a knife as well as chains they can do exactly what he wants. Thus he likely covers most ranges already being a force within the game. Now going by that number 4 hint. The box has gold color around it's design. In Hellraiser 3, it got transformed into a blade sending him to Hell. Which could represent the sharp look for the number 4 or even his actual knife that's shape somewhat like that.
4. Chucky (Child's Play/Chucky series)
Chucky is another huge request I seen all the time. Chucky is likely getting more movies as well as a show on TV. Of course, there now exists two versions of the character that further bags the question. Which is more likely to show up in their game? Classic Chucky is a serial killer who put his soul into a Good Guy doll that continues to kill people.
The remake Chucky is a robot that learns at a fast rate that's willing to do anything to have Andy for itself. Obviously, either version of the character would fill in evil toys. But remake Chucky is a machine that is rare among the killers in the game itself. I should mention that version of Chucky has two major looks too.
Chucky does a few title cards similar to the number 4 hint. Yes, Chucky himself lacks something gold. Thanks to Cult of Chucky & Child's Play remake in their own right adds a lot of interesting possibilities. I strongly felt either version could be in this game to do the franchise justice honestly. We might even get their voice actor to reprise their roles if we're lucky.
5. The Babadook (The Babadook)
The Babadook is a character in a story. One mom started thinking too deeply about that story seeing things like the character himself. So in this regard, fear would represent imagination since she believed in it too much to cause herself fear in the process. Let's be honest somethings are just normally scarier when you start believing too much into it.
6. The Leprechaun (Leprechaun series)
The Leprechaun does have a pot of gold. Somethings additional gold stuff is included. We do need a magic theme killer in this game. I know most of his movies not counting Leprechaun: Origins it doesn't exist takes place in several states. The big exception being 4 is in space that sorta bring that fear into the game as well.
Just imagine what he might be allowed to do in game. Yes they didn't say they were considering him like the previous five guesses. But there isn't a lot of horror franchises that has something to represent the color gold or have a title with the number 4. Now that would limit these down further for me. I would drop everything just to get this guy as soon as possible I'm not joking.
7. Puppet Master (Puppet Master series)
I am aware a free multiplayer game based on this franchise is coming to Steam. But I just noticed a particular cover for Puppet Master 4 has the number 4 similar enough to the hint. You could be the puppet master commanding these puppets against the survivors would be an unique concept. There also exists a reboot movie in it's own universe does spicing their look up further.
8. Graboid species (Tremors series)
Hear me out before freaking on me over this. Tremor 4 has the number 4 similar to the hint. It also was a prequel movie in a similar time period to Chains of Hate chapter. Even if they don't take those creatures from that movie. There do exist mutations of that species. Just imagine being an Graboid under the ground.
You could be given the option to become a couple Shriekers to attack multiple survivors or I apologize it's the name of the final stage, Assblasters can fly in the air. Thus, with the possible exception of water does cover most of the maps by default. Either form would easily be alerted to the survivor's locations quickly.
