Favorite DBD Trailer and Spotlights

So I was thinking over the past few years we've had plenty of trailers and narrators come and go, so which chapter trailers are your favorite and what is it that you like about them the narrator, the editing, or the style?

I'd say my favorite trailer is the Ghost-Face and Halloween reveal trailer

And my favorite spotlight is the Halloween one

    Ghostface wins all for style points, but I'm a big fan of Doctor's trailer for that mugshot at the end, Plague's (that dramatic lighting, eesh), Trickster's (I give them massive props for the style deviation, and the art and seamless segues between his public and private life are great), and Legion's (which... it's a real pity their gameplay doesn't reflect that, since it's an absolutely awesome mood.)

    None of the spotlights in particular have really caught my eye, but I've only watched a few of them in full, so maybe I can't really say.

    I love how Cursed Legacy has Yui's lore slapped onto it and the Oni coming out of nowhere in front of her, overall it's my favorite. Ghostface's trailer gets my respect tho

    Not sure about the spotlights, never really watched them.

    Tricksters trailer is ######### awesome, love the sound design. Beautiful rise in the music, decent music, really shows his character and transformation.

    They are all pretty damn cool.

    if I had to choose one it would probably be Silent Hill though, and that without knowing anything about Silent Hill at all..

    I don't have a favorite spotlight, but this reveal trailer is one of my favorites by far. I'm now a diehard twin main and this trailer has such good sound design to it, from the tension built to revealing Victor, and then the sweeping subbass when Charlotte raises her weapon. It's all just so well done and it's not even the final trailer for the chapter. I feel so sad because I feel like Twins were heavily overshadowed with a K-Pop chapter, nothing wrong with either of them, but Twins seem to be already forgotten.

    I like the Halloween one and the huntress one, but I'm probably just biased on that one.

    Mine is the Stranger Things trailer.

    I remember watching the reveal video on Twitch, I was so excited when I saw Demo dragging the body. Thought Hopper is going to be the survivor but then we have seen the monitor and I saw Nancy and got super excited. I was so happy that Nancy got in as she is my favorite Stranger Things character, Steve was cool too but I like Jonathan better.

    I would have liked to see Hopper as well. Hopefully Legendary Skins make it possible later on (though it would be weird to get Hopper with Steve’s current DbD voice)

    The clown one was my favourite

    Fun fact he actually used to hold a bottle in his other hand. Weird they didn’t keep that

    My favorite trailer is tied between Descend Beyond and Halloween.

    Seeing this shaky and weary husk of a man grotesquely transform in a Pustula-infested Chapel is so ominous.

    My favorite spotlight would have to go to Silent Hill.

    Still mad the Doctor, Huntress, and Trickster never got spotlight trailers.

    I like the way The Clown stomps out of his caravan, annoyed that he's been woken up with a hangover by Kate's guitar strumming.

    The silent hill reveal was pretty awesome. I was there when it happened as well so it becomes very nostalgic and cool too.

    The lighting and creepiness of the environment that gets more disturbing as his blightification progresses is brilliant!
