surprised none of you saw this (assuming no one posted this
0 -
Everyone speaks about it in the whole thread.
7 -
I don’t think it was, but I suppose it’s better to keep it all in one spot anyway.
0 -
thats why i said "assuming" because why the hell would i read a thread with 6 sections with comments?
0 -
Is Candyman
0 -
I did read.
I wanna dream. 😭
But you're right, it's way easier.

So, summarising at 1:30am, we have:
S & I
Circus being spelled with two i’s resembling candles
Reverse AW on the ground with an S to make SAW.
WA-S (William Afton, aka Springtrap)
Springtrap in the background
Candyman in the background
Say it (S I), a Candyman quote, I believe?
Two clown emoji’s, hinting at IT (two clowns, Jeffrey and Pennywise, reinforced by the two i’s)
Candyman’s daughter (I forget her name, but it was I.S.)
Silent Hill; practically the entire chapter, somehow
I most likely missed some, but I am now going to bed.
0 -
I would rule out Saw because we already have him.
It is difficult to deduce who of these 3 can be the killer of this chapter, Springtrap or Candyman or Pennywise.
0 -
Can someone mess out the image on Photoshop?
0 -
Something I noticed is how some people claim to see Springtrap in the backround when you brighten the image, right? Well, often times in the old days of Fanf, Scott would hide things in his teasers and fans would brighten the image to see what he hid. Seems similar to me.
Like here, you can see Springtrap standing in the backround when you brighten the image up. (At the time, no one knew who he was since this was a teaser for Fanf 3.)
I don't know, I'm probably just reaching.

If so, Candyman is a fraud again.

Superman II... General Zod killer voiced by Terrance Stamp. The only thing that would make me wanna play this again probably. lol.
0 -
Leaked by datlight says pennywise. But most definitely the next killer is hinted to be a clown.
Also good catch on ace! Most likely a joke though.
0 -
That “leak”… Is that speculation?
I’m hesitant to just believe what a leaker says.
1 -
I bet BHVR are laughing there arses off at these x100 zoomed in pictures of a smokey ghost rabbit 🤣

Ever consider it could be teasing a map rework?
0 -
Crotus Prenn already was reworked in patch 4.5.0, the patch that also had Clown's jarate buffs and the infamous HUD overhaul.

Today, we have...
It's written seven A in the tweet. (I don't know if it's that important, it could be randomly seven or... calculated seven.)
1 -
I don't think the number of letters is significant, but "SA" could be spelling something, or it could be an acronym.
0 -
This could line up with the theory of a slipknot dlc, it's their 7th album.
2 -
What name could we have now with SA? By name, I mean, someone's name or a city... If it's an acronym. I guess we will know better tomorrow if we have to wait for more letters.
0 -
SAI...
SIA?
1 -
ISA
Isabel Sullivan
the daughter of Daniel Robitaille
aka Candyman
2 -
Yeah but why? If it is Candyman, surely you'd use his own name, not his daughter's.
0 -
They posted an "A" recently
0 -
"Say his name." (Candyman)
0 -
Are we sure about the i? It could only be a way to show two candles, for an anniversary, someone's birthday which was this exact day... The two i were: two, kind of hidden contrary to the S and the A...
The S was kind of hidden behind a fire barrel but the letter was clear. While the two i were more kind of representation. (Sorry, it starts to be hard for me to explain correctly, I'm not an English native speaker. Hope it still makes sense.)
0 -
Not saying I agree with it, but they could do it to be more cryptic.
1 -
The seven "A" could probably refer to the length of the word we're looking for or could tell us which place the letter has to be placed in the word.
Same goes for the double clowns yesterday, they could have been a hint for the double "i" or they could refer to the spot the "i" has to be placed in the word were looking for.
Don't know how the first post fits there then though, but just as a theory.
Also is anyone else also seeing an "U" (or "V") in the bush over the fire barrel? The leaves do look like an "U" for me.
1 -
I'm not familiar with Candyman's lore... But if tomorrow we get an Y, it could lead to this.
0 -
Long story short, if you say his name five times in front of a mirror, you summon him. It was part of the tagline for the original film, something like "We dare you to say his name" or "We dare you to say Candyman". Y'know, stuff that sounds cheesy nowadays, but back then was meant to entice audiences.

I don't think the movie was popular in my country, I've never heard of it before I enter the DBD forums. But I see. I'm gonna do some researches because I've also heard about bees, which makes me curious.
0 -
The bees are also quite characteristic, yes.
You should do yourself a favor and watch the first film.
0 -
Okay, let’s look at this logically.
S is a letter in the alphabet.
Sesame Street is a show that kids watch to learn the alphabet.
The letter S is above a trash can. Therefore the next killer is --
Oscar the Grouch.
7 -
Makes perfect sense, and we all know Sesame Street has been the most requested license since the game launched. Oscar the Grouch for DbD!
2 -
OMG, Sia is the new survivor!
4 -
Welp if we get a R or a T it will be clear on who we are getting.
1 -
Agreed, there are way better licenses that are out there
1 -
The letter A is the new killer.
1 -
Does this A rule out Pennywise?
At this point, I have no idea.
0 -
Well a 'T' could also be crisscross spelling out
S A Y
I T
as per the new candyman poster
0 -
Maybe they also mean Deadlights, the power of Pennywise.
0 -
also why I said R
0 -
yes, but if the next letter's a T bets are still open
If the next letter's an R though, it could be
SAdako RIngu

McLean tweeted this dad joke today. Coincidence?
1 -
Holy crap you were right dude, the next Killer is a little anime shark girl XD
2 -
It looks like a bunny tbh. Leaning towards clown's cosmetic if anything

My options with that photo right now could be an animatronic, Legion's rabbit cosmetic, Huntress, or a rock with a crow. It is a mind game.
0 -
Now that I think about it... It 90% is a crow since the area below is obviously grey like all the other rocks and the crow is pitch black and it shows. rip
