Ghostface chasing Laurie strode
This would be kind of awkward in lore because the movie Halloween still exists in the Scream universe. Ghostface even watched Halloween and was a big fan of horror movies. So it would be really awkward and confusing for him to be chasing Larue Strode when she's not even supposed to be real for him. How can these two…

How Final Destination and DBD are connected.
This took me awhile to come think up and try and connect, as i studied the lore of both DBD and the FD franchise and how they could be connected. So i went back to the beginning with Dwight, and his transition into the Entities realm. It made me wonder how that could interfere with Deaths design. Because as well know. When…

My problem with the Archives
I don't like the Archivist (or Overseer, or Prisoner, or whatever they'll end up being called). The idea of an independent NPC who exists in the Fog but apparently has a doctor's note excusing them from the trials or whatever doesn't sit right with me. To a lesser extent, I don't like the Archives as they were presented…

Interesting Grammar Learned from Researching Spirit's Description
I originally wanted to bring it to the dev's attention that in The Spirit's background, it says: "Someone had to be held accountable and Rin's father fitted the bill perfectly." I wasn't if it was a typo or an issue with translation if originally from another language, but I was adamant that it should have been "fit the…

Escaping The Entity
There was an apparent way to escape The Entity (honestly how to do this could be a discussion in itself) and it was successfully done. Would who escaped survivors and Killers included be returned back to their time frames or circumstances before they were taken away. Basically would people like Min and Kate return to the…

LGBTQ survivors and killers.
with cosmetics we can have ace, but I'd like to see a legit drag queen survivor (probably better killer, really.) and maybe a gay or lesbian killer. As a gaymer I dont mind stereotypes used when they're actually funny or fit the character, but it could be fun. Killers obsession could actually benefit if it's the same sex…

Hope and Existence
As we continue to play survivor and killer, I have always pondered: As we continue to play, are we torturing the survivors or saving them? The survivors lore-wise repeats the same trials, suffering from fear and pain again and again. But if we stop playing survivor, do the survivors cease to exist and lose hope? When…

Hatch theory
Idk why but I was talking about dead by daylight with my friend and I created the crazy conspiracy that the hatch is actually a trick that the entity places and that survivors that use it don’t actually escape ( as if it’s a hole into the entity’s mouth or something like that ) Its a bit of a stupid theory but I thought it…

How does Benedict Baker know about the entity?

Multiple copies of a survivor
So when joining a trial there can be, for example, multiple Dwights or Claudettes. I know this is probably not canon but maybe there is an explanation that makes it possible lore-wise. We know that time in the Entity's realm doesn't work like in the real world. Maybe the concept of time in the Entity's realm makes a…

so lore wise....
What exactly happens after the endgame collapse has ended (after all survivors have been sacrificed or they escaped the match) Does the realm start to decay for an example the killer shack gets torn up by the entity and everything else we see on the match grounds or the buildings stay in place or do they get re-created?

Are the legion the most evil?
Other than the clown that got rewarded with Maurice the horse, are the legion the most evil killers in the game? All other killers have visible torture to convince them to work for the entity (excluding licensed killers) and yet none of the legion seem to have this.

Is it ok for me to write a Pre-entity Huntress story?
I've been a fan of the game for 2 years now, and have found the lore to be rather interesting especially around the huntress.

Ghost Face Real Identity
I have a small question. Is Ghost Face's real name Danny Johnson and he made up ,,Jed Olsen'' to use it to hide his real identity from people in Roseville, or the opposite? EDIT: So as I thought Danny Johnson is his real name but he uses Jed Olsen to hide from the world beacuse he's a serial killer as mentioned in new…

Working with The Entity
I've recently got to thinking of the multiple ways The Entity users to get The Killers to work for her. Torture.

Any Reason Why The Legion Have to Preform Trials Separately?
The four of them seemed to start becoming a unit before they were taken away. They were a gang, a small team of brats who did mischief together. So why is it now that they are in the realm of the entity they don't preform trials together? Wouldn't it make sense to use the team, AS a team? And I know the obvious answer is…

Holidays and Events, but Lore-Friendly
Who do you think puts up the decorations for events? They're largely based on holidays in the real world, but they're mashups of culture rather than following a specific calendar. I wonder if The Entity herself puts them up. Holidays are, historically, celebrations or remembrances which bring people together in tradition.…

Why doesn't the Legion recognize Jeff?
I know it's probably a "Uhna he needed to kill 4 gameplay" but is there a loretic reason? Jeff did help tag the Legion's hideout for them, so why don't they recognize him in the trials?

Some things we maybe don't know about Lery's Memorial Institute?

Not the first Ghost Face?
Some very minor spoilers for the new dlc. The cape for Ghost Face's demon cape comments that 'all the other Ghost Faces should have worn it'. Can we assume then that Danny wasn't the first to wear the mask? Or shall we believe he is aware of his successors outside the entities realm?

The Plague
I don't think anyone is sure what exactly the year is in the Entity's Realm, but I realized something a second ago. Adiris is the High Priestess of Babylon, a kingdom founded in 2300 BC. Assuming The Plague was taken before she died, that would mean she was in the Entity's Realm for a VERY long time before we actually knew…

The real face of entity
Searching for lore, I have never seen the true face of the Entity, because we are the entity, a being who breaks the barrier of the third dimension and provides our will over the beings of that. - How did I find this out?

Let's discuss some random hypothetical situations
So, I wonder, what would Entity do if 1) Some survivor becomes way too skillful avoiding killers. Killers just can't catch him - he is way to quick, agile and mindful of surroundings. This happens from trial to trial and slowly becomes regular thing. 2) Some survivor just don't afraid of dying - and willingly die for other…

So...are all the survivors dead?
I recently read Jane’s bio and I think it’s implying she crashed? But if you read Kate’s or Claudette’s or Meg’s bio it’s like they disappeared into thin air? So are they all dead? And is the Entity’s realm basically a never ending hellscape?

A survivor's last though
The horror and the suffering I’ve been through is unfathomable, limitless and eternal. I have no understanding of it, nor do I care anymore.

Cosmetic Posters
I’ve always wondered about the cosmetic posters and if they are tied into the lore in any way. If they are like the one above are the survivors able to go back in time or travel places?

No Kids?

Possible different way survivors could become killers?

Proof killers talk to each other
Alright, so each killer has a perk called a "Teachable" perk, when you hit 30/35/40 on your level, you have to buy one, but that and the shrine are the only ways of getting them, so that means that specific killer is teaching the others how to use that to there full advantage, sounds absurd, but works
