Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Ju-on

If Kayako Saeki and her son Toshio were characters in Dead by Daylight, their abilities and addons could reflect their supernatural powers and the horror elements from Ju-on.

Kayako Saeki: The Cursed Whisper

Power: Kayako can manifest her ghostly presence to haunt survivors. When activated, she can teleport to a location within a certain range, leaving behind a "curse" that affects survivors in that area. Survivors who enter the cursed area suffer from a speed reduction and are marked for a limited time.

  2. Cursed Doll
    • Effect: Survivors who cleanse a totem become cursed and marked for a time.

Green Add-ons:

  2. Child's Drawing
    • Effect: Survivors affected by the curse have their repair and healing speeds reduced.

Toshio: The Innocent Haunt

Power: Toshio can manifest as a distraction, creating an illusion of himself that draws survivors’ attention. Survivors who interact with the illusion become exposed for a limited time.

  1. Battered Doll
    • Effect: Survivors who interact with the illusion leave behind a visible trail for a short time.
