Game start killer animations.
So. Not a long time ago I watched the video about ranking the killers spawning animations and saw a comment that was suggesting a lot of cool animations for AFK killers that just stand there without the animation like Trapper or Wraith.
This motivated me to suggest you to create more animations for them.
That's the suggestions for the animations that were in a comment:
Trapper could be checking the opening mechanism on the trap he's holding before letting it snap shut at the air with a loud snap.
Wraith could start as a shimmer before uncloaking as he animates in before returning back to the cloak to start the game.
Hillbilly can grunt as he winds up and turns on his chain saw, preparing for the trial.
The nurse is a simple blink in and shows her fatigued before recovering for the game.Huntress can simply be wiping down her throwable hatchet before putting it away to clutch her primary.
Shape just standing there motionless is actually in character for him, and I wouldn't change him just standing there cold and motionless. It fits with how Myres stalks.
Hag could be kneeling down on the floor, practising her hex traps before wiping it away as she gets up.
Doctor could be bouncing electricity off his weapon before shocking his hand and shaking it with an unsettling laughter.
Leatherface could simply just be starting his saw or have it already started with him swinging it around, settling himself from a tantrum before beginning.
Nightmare could perhaps simply manifest into the world out of a blood puddle as if it is a dream that he's invading.
Pig could be listening to a tape that we can't hear, but we can assume it's a recording created by the entity of Jigsaw explaining the trial to her before pocketing it.
Clown is tricky. I'd assume either he'd be admiring his keyring of fingers before putting it away, or finishing the shaking of an afterpiece tonic.
Legion seems okay with the knife flicks but if I were to give them another, I'd like to have all 4 sitting and depending on the Legion you play, they get up in different expressions. Suzie is slow and timid while Frank is assertive and energetic, for example.
Plague comes from another comment where she's extravagantly presenting a chant. Her vomiting a bit on the ground during the chant is also good but could unnerve people who play her.
Ghost Face would be replacing film or battery in his camera before taking a picture of himself and putting it away.
Oni is easy. Either have him settle down from his demonic form with the flames of rage dissipating from his hair or him psyching himself up with an enraged roar.
Deathslinger can either be him walking slowly into place like a cowboy entering a saloon with a tumbleweed in the background that would despawn once the game begins. Reloading his weapon could also be acceptable.
Pyramid Head I would have loved to see him slowly wander wander towards the Great Knife, like he did in Silent Hill 2 when he approached the closet James was hiding in.
Charlotte is her holding Victor's hand with her left in a caring manner while flicking her sickle, warming up her right arm.
Trickster needs to lean into that kpop murderer aspect he came with since his gameplay shows none of it. I'd imagine with him doing that dance he did in his trail before abruptly cutting it off with him pulling his baseball bat out and swinging it with a psychotic giggle or some Korean speech for "Let's dance" or something like that.

Ghostface should be looking up at the Player Camera and follow it around and then turn around as Camera goes into him.
