Map idea: Mansion by a Lake
I know the chances of this happening are about the same as hell freezing over, but I just wanted to mention the idea anyway.
My idea is that we have a Mansion map, it has the Red Forest atmosphere, only darker which is lit up with moon light and lights in the building, with heavier rain. Outside the Mansion there's a window with a light on, that you can't get into implying someone or "something" is home, The killer shack could be in the outside area, and another basement spawn could be in the mansions wine cellar.
Another map is by the lake, with a pier/jetty where you can see the mansion in the distance across the lake. It's a small fishing village that has a forest outside, the killer shack spawns in the forest, and another basement spawns inside the fishing village.
As for exit gates, the Mansion has a library where an exit gate spawns, the door being book shelves that open up revealing a secret tunnel, that being the exit, and another gate being outsite, having big heavy iron gates that open up, revealing a foggy road. Look at the third mansion picture below to see the kind of gates I'm talking about.
The hallways have barricades that the survivor can vault over, or throw pallet down, with sections of the wall destroyed so the killer can walk around the barricade, and some rooms have jungle gyms, while other rooms have a pallet, and hole in the wall that can be vaulted. The Mansion has a second floor that has holes in the ceiling so survivors can drop down, so BL can get some use as well. The Mansions best vault and jungle gym spots open up when generators in the building are completed. Opening up entire rooms that were inaccessible before.
Here's some artwork of mansions to paint a picture of what I'm imagining:

The killer shack in the woods could look something like this:

And the killer shack:
This first one being the spawn in the village:
This one being the one out in the woods:
Now I have no idea who or what the Killer should be, but please don't make it a cliche like a Vampire. I was thinking, another ghost killer or maybe a phantom of the opera would be preferable to me, even the headless horsemen.
It's like I said though, I'm stumped when it comes to the Killer, so if anyone has their own killer idea's for this map by all means feel free to get creative.
TLDR: A Haunted Mansion being the main playable area, that has access to the outside, it's very dark with the only source of light being moonlight and lights in the building and it has heavy rain. Another map being a fishing village, that overlooks the Mansion by the lake, that has a forest surrounding it.
