Doll/Puppet Killer
A creepy doll or puppet killer would be fun. (Chuckie, Annabelle, etc.) Something that was shorter/smaller than other killers would make it difficult mechanically, i.e. hanging a survivor on a hook. However, an ability to throw a survivor, or levitate, or some-such thing could overcome that. Rather than carrying the survivor's body, maybe they could drag them, maybe put them on a cart/wagon that was graphically shoulder height, so as to stay consistent in your game mechanics. The cart could have a lift to place a survivor on a hook. Just thinking out loud here...offering ideas.

Ohh, I thought you meant a life-sized marionette with a creepy broken mask or something, like a once-pretty doll that's angry at others and wants to carve them up. That would be neat! Short characters would be tricky since you couldn't see past grass; think Pig in ambush mode. While it wouldn't be really bad from a killer's perspective, the survivors wouldn't be able to see it, and you'd have a lot of angry players.
