Splatterhouse Chapter
We should have a Splatterhouse chapter with Dr. West's house being the environment. The Mask of Terror and Rick Taylor being an important part of the chapter. I'm not sure who'd be the survivor. I think Rick Taylor would make a decent substitute for the absence of Jason Voorhees. Rick Taylor is about as close to Jason as…

I'd Like To See A Former Survivor As A Killer
This was an idea somewhat brought up in the "old lore" with Benedict Baker stuff but has never really been revisited since. I do appreciate that it's been all but stated the Entity spidertentacle-picks individuals it thinks would make good Killers/Survivors specifically for their roles now, but I really enjoyed the sense…

Killer codenames
Where exactly does The Entity come up with these code names for The Killers. Some more understandable as they are ready pre-existing entity just uses it for them. Legion: Is the name of their Gang. As the killer is each individual member of the Gang itself The Killers codename was dubbed and drived the name of the gang and…

I read the story of Wraith and I can't understand why he became a murderer
Well, in his own story he says he killed without knowing he was killing, the only one he really wanted to kill was his boss, but why did he become a murderer?

Feelings about the Archives
I don't know whether this should be here or in Off-Topic, but since it deals with the Archives, I'm putting it here. With the second Tome done and the third one, Escalation, on the way, I think we understand what to expect from them. So, I just want to speak about how I personally feel about them, individually. I will be…

White Eyes
Wraith, Hillbilly, and Deathslinger all have white, glowing eyes. What does this mean? Does it mean anything? Was it simply an aesthetic choice? One thing that seems common in these three characters is that they were wronged by other people in some way, and feel their murder is righteous or vengeance for their mistreatment…

Lore Dive: The Alchemist
Overview: Throughout the past few years that Dead by Daylight has been out, there was one character that was introduced to the community; The Alchemist. The Alchemist is one of the main characters in the lore of the game and has caused many people to speculate a variety of theories regarding The Alchemist ranging from him…

Do the survivors hear their own heartbeat or the killers'?
According to Benedict Baker, they hear the killer's heartbeat. But an note found in the fog says it is their own that the survivors hear. What do you think?

I have a question regarding the alchemist.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't it show him( the alchemist) have the trapper tied down and inject the yellow serum. So my question is, how did he do it? Like, Tie him down. Did the entity allow him too?

Hi guys, Im an anatomy student and Ive got rly confused with the McMillans map pic - which is a phalang. According to the lore, it is a leg bone but in my point of view it should be actually a mid finger hand phalang :D Change my mind pls :D Im confused

Revelations
So, we got the revelations logs for the Archives. Now, my friend came to me today with some interesting stuff. We both overlooked this yesterday as I am posting this, because we got the other two logs yesterday. Now, spoilers ahead for Arcus 1672. The Unique Wedding Ring was an add on that kinda came out of no where in the…

Yui/Oni vs Zarina/Deathslinger
Yui and Oni's lore are on point and their cosmetics are so cool! How did the devs go form that to the recent DLC release. Not that I am not appreciative of their work, I just wish that it did not seem like it was thrown together with no rhyme nor reason. Zarina is plain and her lore mixed with Deathslingers makes no sense?…

feng min is apparently chinese but her cosmetic is japanese?
So speculation online says that feng min is a chinese name so she is chinese, but the "masuku bijin" cosmetic translates in Japanese to mean "mask beautiful woman" i am confusion.

Which Killer has the Worst Smelling Breath?
Hag? Maybe Bubba? What about Demogorgon? Hillbilly? Cause he does drink Moonshine, but doesn't have teeth to have plaque to make it smell worse (From my understanding)

Disabled Survivors joining the Entity's realm
If the theory is true that the Entity will eventually take over the world and pull everyone in their realm, then eventually it will take someone who is wheelchair bound or blind. Or would the Entity just remove their disabilities altogether?

Why didn't Rin's mom become a spirit?
why? She had reason to be a spirit, why didn't she? 1-she was killed by her husband (normally the spirits onryo are wives of samurai who kill them) 2-he killed his daughter 3-the Yamaoka family code was broken . I have 3 theories: 1-it seems that Rin's mother was sick (maybe from a terminal illness? I don't remember it)…

What if Dead by daylight is actually real?
Ok so, i think there are all sorts of possibilities is this world. ''There can't be good without evil.'' And i 100% believe it. Sure it can't be just like the game.People aren't put on meat hooks and don't fix generators to power exit gates. But think about it. What if all those people who disappeared without a trace and…

Lore wise, why would the entity choose nancy and steve?
So the obvious reason for this is character popularity and they aren't children anymore in the show. BHVR wouldn't want to show or depict child murder. With that out of the way what would the lore reasoning be for the entity choosing someone like Nancy or Steve over someone like Eleven? Like seriously, the entity is…

What's up with all the cans?
Why are there so many cans lying around on so many maps in the game? Are they food cans? Did survivors eat them? Does that mean that survivors can die of starvation? Why do survivors throw so much trash away? Do they not have any concern for the environment? Were did they even find the cans if they ate them? Are they also…

Terra Primus Coins Discussion

Killer Antagonist/Protagonist roles in a revolution against the Entity
In the event of an uprising of the killers in the event of a weakened Entity, where survivors and killers are free to roam the Fog, this is how I think the killers would act. The Observer would likely be a major player in this event, perhaps even the cause. Antagonist: Attacks killers and survivors alike, for their own…

Which killers do Jake and Claudette belong to?
After watching a video of each of the trailers I noticed that all the survivors had a killer except for Toxic and Camped, oh sorry Jake and Claudette.

Is Loretta Jane’s mother or not?
Having finished Jane’s archive last night I was disappointed to find out that this is still unanswered. So for anyone who’s read Jane’s lore, you know that she has some abandonment issues due to the absence of her mother, famous actress Loretta Lawrence. However later in her story after Jane launches her own talk show, she…

Were the devs inspired by Modernist Literature when writing Archive entries ?
I am currently studying English Literature in University, we recently discussed about Modernist Literature (20's to the 50's) and how authors were using interior monologues and free indirect speech to tell their stories. Basically, the narrator tells the story of a character, but using its vocabulary and describing its…

Will We Ever Get A Killer That Is The Spawn Of The Entity?
We see this theme a lot in the deeper lore of fantasy and horror films/books. For example, Shelob, the spider seen in TLOTR, is a spawn from a god type being that took the form of a spider and mated with a real spider, in order to produce offspring that possessed it's power, or variations of it (May have got that slightly…

On deathslingers lore it says: "At his feet, he saw a dusty path, and, at its end, silhouettes of all who had done him wrong: the boys who bullied him, the executives who took advantage of him, and, again... Henry Bayshore. Emerging from a fog were the tools to dispose of them — unforgiving steel hooks, brilliant and…

Missed story opportunity - Survivors becoming killers
Why as there been absolutely no attempt to explore this amazing concept? The whole premise of the game is killers sacrificing survivors to the entity, allowing it to feed off of the hope of survivors until they, themselves, become a killer. Yet there has nothing in-game or otherwise to suggest that this has ever happened.…

Lore Dive: Forgotten Killers
Overview: After revisiting a game that I played a little while ago, I noticed a subtle, yet noticeable detail included in the game. The game I revisited was Payday 2. In case you don’t already know, Payday 2 did some sort of collaboration with Dead by Daylight to promote both of their games back in 2016. Payday 2 created…

Parents issues
Just noticed that many killers and survivors share some conflicts with their parents. Those conflicts literally made them who they are now. Definetly can't argue that parents have SIGNIFICANT role in one's personal growth. But, well, Bhvr... maybe you overdo it... just a bit? Gonna go brief, cause it's a lot ground to…
