The blights cane
This may come across as not much of a great mystery but this one did sticker out to me when I saw the blight which being his cane, he doesn’t use it as a normal cane which makes sense he’s crazy obviously he will use it in a different fashion but why a cane. Why does this question is interesting is because it doesn’t match…

i got a question about slender man
Why does not much people want slender man into the game because he is one my favorite horror people.He could work in the game but he doesn't have to be another stalking killer like he did in the movie you can be a stalking killer just grab motior perk and be like Michael. I hate when people say that he is another stalking…

Hawkins National Lab- The Gate To The Upside Down Discussion
Hello the community of Dead by Daylight and thank you for spending your time on reading the post. From the very beginning since the Stranger Things chapter released, i was always wondering if the gate on the Hawkins Lab could actually take The Survivor/ Killer into the another dimension. For all we know, every trial is…

Any In universe explanation for t-bagging survivors and other stuff like it?
Is there any lore based explanation that you can think of that can explain this? Also stuff like giving hatch, killer nodding, booping snoots, and general memeing.

The Blight's lore: Rawalpindi Experiments reference?
If you haven't read the new killer's story, here it is: About the Opium War I I found the Blight's (aka the Alchemist's) story heavily linked to the Opium War. More accurately, on a remote island of India, he experimented on the captured soldiers (and maybe citizens) of the Opium War I, who undoubtly were Chinese during…

Entity Touched Eyes
So, I'll start off by saying this was mainly taken from a different post where I discuss the killers that are "unwilling" to perform their duty as a killer. Basically think of Trapper with all of the iron hooks embedded into his flesh. But this theory moves away from that, and talks about a common theory, which is…

How many killers have been tricked/tortured/manipulated into serving the Entity?
There seems to be a clear split amongst the killers when it comes to how they got into the Entity's service: those it tricked/manipulated/totured into its service, and those that came willingly. But has anyone ever sat down making a list of which killer goes where? I mean, Wraith, Trapper and Deathslinger have been…

Ace vs David: Who Would Win?
Ace Visconti has bet $100 he could survive 5 minutes in a fight with David King. The conditions are simple: if David knocks Ace out, he wins. If Ace stays conscious for t minutes, he wins, and David buys the entire pub a round of drinks. Who would win?

This would be funny
So I was reading some comments about escaping the entity's realm and one of them mentioned about survs meeting in real life. It would be a shock for them. They would probably think it was a nightmare. They go to a vacation to china and they see feng and realize it wasn't a nightmare. LoL. Or they are camping in a forest…

How big a part of Deathslinger's story is that Mason Kelly guy?
I kinda feel like there's unfathomed potential here. Mason Kelly shows up in Caleb's lore several times: His wanted poster is one of Caleb's addons, it's him who Caleb catches after his leg got shot to pieces, and it's Kelly's gang who kidnapped five of Caleb's men, leading to the Glenvale Massacre. And Kelly might be the…

So do survivors lose their memories after every resurrection or not?
How do we have teachables then? Granted, resetting survivors back to day one every time they die certainly makes logistic sense from the Entity's perspective, but it doesn't seem like that's what's happening in-game. How would survivors ever "go hollow" or whatever its called and be sent to the Void when they aren't useful…

Theory on content in Clown's VHS tape
VHS porn's item description is "An all time classic". Now let's look at some dates. VHS was invented in 1977, Clown was born in 1932 making him 45 at the time (his age will be important for later). During the late 70s and mostly 80s who was a prominent figure in the adult film industry? That's right Ron Jeremy a "classic"…

The (Unofficial) Timeline of Dead by Daylight
It should be noted that the Omniverse mentioned in Tome II seems to indicate that Dead by Daylight exists in a multiverse that the Entity is able to travel though, in addition to being able to travel through space and time. The Omniverse/multiverse explains the presence of licensed killers and survivors who cannot exist in…

Is there an explanation as to how the survivors get their haircuts?
I'm assuming no. Maybe the entity can transform the survivors' hairstyles at their will. It obviously has the power to deform killers and give them superpowers, so why would it not be able to cut or transform hair? I'd like to see a barber survivor being added through DLC though, that'd be a cool character to play as.…

Which bits and pieces of The Deathslinger's designs are his main-timeline bits?
Now, it's clear that the outfits for no killer all stem from the same timeline. But especially with Caleb I wonder how much of the stuff in the outfit's lore and design happened to his main-verse self. What do we have consistently? His leg is injured in ALL outfits (there's also two bulletholes on his upper leg in the…

There is only hooks?
Why hooks? Are they really necesary? or lorewise there is more than just hooks? As we see, Pyramid Head use something else that hooks, he use cages, so that make me think that killers can put survivors on anything else For example, the Pig could use a chair trap, Freddy could use a bed or some demonic thing, Demogorgon,…

The Entity is toying with the Observer to make him an unwitting pawn
Now, first of all, we can hopefully agree the Observer is not a neutral narrator. He interprets the memories etc he finds through the lense of his own believes and understandings. And going through the observation so far (don't have them for Tome IV yet, obviously) I'm brought to believe that the Entity is not only fully…

So, Steve and Nancy.
Firstly their characters must not get along with anyone. Cause they’re talking about some mind flayer guy controlling all of this. When the others are pretty sure it’s the entity. I mean Feng is probably laughing to herself about how they think someone from D&D is the master of everything. And then we also have the Paradox…

Broken rewards
So, I tried to get 2 of challenges for Ace's lore(Go For Broke) and I didn't get both pages for it. If it matters, I completed the one that you have to burn or blind the killer and the one that you have to search 2 chests as Ace. And if this also matters, I did chest opening challenge first and did the second one with Meg.

Somthing i find wired about zarinas lore
As a zarina main i really like her backstory, but one thing i noticed when she went to the hellshire prison into the deathslingers cell she found a mans body, this body is easily confermed to be henry bayshores body, but the body was just killed meaning that zarina was at the date of time that henry died, so what does this…

Minor spoiler alert: unwilling killers?
So, here's my idea: not all the killers may really enjoy what they do. Let's think about, for instance, the wraith. He got insane after Discovering that he obliviously killed tens, maybe hundreds of people in the autohaven demolitions. Then he killed the one responsible and created a weapon out of his remains. The nurse…

So whatever happened to Benedict Baker and his quotes?
Seems like after the Clown, no killer have gotten a quote from Benedict Baker about his encounter with said killer. And I dunno, it was a very small but tremendously powerful bit of Lore as it told us a bit about the Entity's Realm and what the survivors see and experience. @not_Queen @Peanits Do you know the reason behind…

totally pointless rant about Legion
I'm posting this in the "Lore" thread because there's nothing gameplay-related in this post; it's just something I feel the need to vent about. I really REALLY don't like Legion, thematically. It is painfully obvious that Legion was just shoehorned into DbD when Deathgarden failed, to get a quick cheap killer out of…

Ghostface: Danny is technically an OC. Tome when?
The devs have stated in the past that they are not going to do Tomes for already established characters and want to focus on their own characters. However... The Ghostface that resides in-game is technically not licensed and is an original character that only utilizes the costume. Therefore, I think is completely…

Moving away from explicit horror?
Dbd is a horror game and as such I think it makes sense for them to keep the horror title, to acquire licenses that also hold the horror title like Halloween or A Nightmare On Elm Street, or make their own original horror creations. But with the release of the Stranger Things chapter, I think this was the first instance of…
