What original characters fit into licensed stories?

With the next chapter confirmed to be licensed once again we the community are only just starting to run up the speculation cycle once more, about who could possibly make it into Dead By Daylight's amalgamation of horror.

However, it got me thinking about the vice versa, what original Dead By Daylight characters could you see appearing and fitting into the movies / games / shows it pulls from?

For example I think Adam Francis would fit perfectly in Stranger Things, is it purely because of the haircut? Possibly. But the trench coat, with vest and tie, also remind me a bit of the scientists / teachers / detectives / conspiracy theorists, that know about and / or are investigating the Upside Down and how it works.

I think many of the original killers could also actually fit in as antagonists in Ash Vs. Evil Dead, specifically The Hag, The Spirit, and The Plague all seem kind of similar to the kind of Deadites Ash frequently faces off against.

Jane Romero seems like the kind of superficial celebrity Ghostface would be interested in stalking and murdering. Just for the fame, publicity, and attention of it

etc.


What do you guys think? It's really interesting to think about the opposite, and BHVR's licenses going outward in other directions fitting in alongside the licensed characters in their original mediums, if only for a very brief period of time as a minor character or something.
