What I hope the anniversary killer is

The Crooked Man from the Conjuring Franchise

Why him : The Crooked Man is the most unique and threatening antagonist from the Franchise. Annabelle is just a Doll but unlike Chucky, The Doll can't even move unless in demon form which at that point it's not Annabelle. The Nun to me is just generic now. I have seen Faceless Nuns to Knife weilding Nuns in Video games and horror movies. The Nun and Annabelle have limited powers/abilities to actually harm survivors or be a fun killer.

The Crooked Man has can actually attack due to having a crooked umbrella which was used to try and impale one of the main characters. The main weapon can have an alternative which would be a Crooked walking cane since it would fit the design and theme of the Crooked man.

He is also a great horror adaptation of The Crooked Man nursery rhyme. He is a Nursery Rhyme meant to comfort kids that has been turned into a Grim tale. The Conjuring Franchise is also making a spin off film about him which the Trailer will drop most likely this year.

Powers/Abilities : In the film it is shown he can teleport and has master stealth to give the main characters a scare. He could have his Music Box play a part of his power or as an Iri Addon. The Crooked man would be a Stealth or a Map Pressure killer based on the Conjuring 2 film.



Slenderman

Why him: Was the most known horror icon back in 2014 that was created from an art contest. Slenderman is known to be the Internet's Boogeyman due to being created from it. He is based on many sources like Hp Lovecraft and Silent hill, so he would fit perfectly in DBD. Slenderman was an internet horror icon back in his day and BHVR would do a good job bringing him back to the Spotlight. Slenderman would bring new players and returning players to embrace this internet legend.

He is currently owned by Mythology Holdings and one of the owners can be emailed easily, so it's possible for BHVR to get him. He would be the most terrifying killer yet based on his many abilities and way to hunt down his victims. Slenderman has a giant cultural impact and inspired lot of creations like the Look-See who is a skin for Doctor. Because of Slenderman's many abilities, he would be the most fun killer to play as and against for a true horror experience.

Before anyone says, The no-touch survivor issue is nonexistent due to Pin head and Sadako. Also he actually walks in Arrivial so another nonvalid reason not to add him. Also, there can be a survivor if we use the Arrival IP which has a main character.

Lastly.....he needs justice from what Sony did with that god awful excuse of a Slenderman movie.

Powers/Abilities : Slenderman has teleportation, mechanical interference, intense stealth, psychic powers, and shadow tentacles. He could be a mix between Doctor and Sadako with a hint of Myers.

An easy fix for the "no-touch survivor" Would be to have a similar attack to Sadako but filled with static and have his pick-up animation use his tentacles. Not to hard but will make Slenderman have no reason to not work.

The no-look mechanic will not work due to lot of problems and not a big deal since in Arrivial you can look at him.

Overall Slenderman would be a perfect killer and be the best one to date if he was added.
