PSA: Insidious basement bubba
It's time to put your detective skills to work.
If you don't see a killer for a while at the start of the match, assume it is a trapper or hag at first setting up.
If you don't see a killer around, then it's time to get curious. It can be a Wraith camping an exit gate with NOED, or Pig crouching by an exit gate, or...
An insidious basement bubba. Seriously, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that there is a basement bubba, I still see several people fall for their antics.
If you don't see the killer for most of the game, check the basement to see if it is an insidious bubba. IF it is, then slam the gens and leave the game.
Just had a match where I knew it was a basement bubba so I walked down the basement stairs and heard him breathing in the far corner in front of a locker behind the wall. However, when I went upstairs to warn Yui cleansing a totem by telling her to come over, but for some reason she literally sprint burst down the stairs like she was expecting christmas presents. As she went down I literally laughed uncontrollably for about a minute, and then of course she killed herself. She then proceeded to wait until the game was over to insult me. She called me a "****dette" (a new insult) and sent me a few death threats, lmao as expected. But who the hell goes into the basement when there is a good chance of a basement bubba being there?
After she went down there, a Cheryl followed suit. Please, do not ever go into a basement if there is a good chance of basement bubba being there.
Fun fact: You can actually hear the basement dweller breathe if you actually pay attention.
PS: You might want to cleanse all totems in case of NOED in the endgame, some basement dwellers actually come out to catch unsuspecting survivors.

In all my experience which isn't much but I've had a lot of games never experienced a basement bubba and I really wanna because I won't go into basement and even when I do I crouch and take it slow in case a trapped or hag has decided to protect that chest down there. Altho I have gone up against a insidious clown with finger add-on just waiting for the saviour to try it.

OP is lying, please come to the basement, I mean... go there. There's nothing here--I mean there, that could harm you.

Touching the basement chest is a serious crime and shall result in the Death Penalty.

This is why insidious basement bubba is actually funny. They give survivors every chance to do the gens and escape, its the survivors own curiosity that gets them killed.

If I see 2 gens pop and there is no sign of the killer, I leave gens to check out where they are, ngl. Most of the times it's and AFK killer or one struggling a lot on the verge of giving up.
The basement bubbas I have encountered is when they have already hooked someone (maybe they were the one to go check for cookies down there) and I have seen A Lot with insidious but there were a couple that didn't even bother running that and it was just funny

Those who desire the chest of the basement will face retribution. For thou, will be toxic and impure of nature and to stain the wooden surfaces is an unforgivable sin and shall receive divine judgement from metal chains.
PSA: Don't touch the chest.
