Killer theme ideas?

was just watching some movies, and thought, we really could use a Soldier as the killer. 

I couldn’t decide what era though, I was thinking WW1 or 2 era soldier, with the gas masks on would be cool.

or a Ronin Samurai style (probably wouldn’t happen due to Spirit)

or an undead knight.

more or less just want a killer who looks less ghastly, more grim and foreboding. 

Any killer themes you all want to see implemented?

    A killer who's infested and controlled by some kind of parasite, could walk unnaturally, look twisted and deformed. Something like the Las Plagas from Resident Evil.

    A killer based around sounds and silence, maybe creates small trap-like pockets of total silence or white noise where even the killer heartbeat can't be heard. Can also have better hearing, so sounds of survivors are louder to the killer (breathing, pain grunts, footsteps etc).

    A killer who can teleport at will to spots they have marked. Similar to the Hag but rather than the traps creating an apparition you can freely teleport to markings. It would be great for mind games.

    A killer who can throw a hook on a chain a certain distance. If it hits a survivor it pulls them to the ground and the killer starts slowly dragging them towards them. Killer stays stationary, but the survivor can mash a button or, following DbD style, hit some skill checks to unhook the chain and run, stunning the killer for a bit.

    Many ideas, too little time

    I would love a Wendigo style killer, I wouldn't really know about what kind of power it could have.

    I would also love a shapeshifter killer but I know it's going to be a problem to make it at least decent.
