It's Hellraiser (CONFIRMED)

I just brought those up bc they're popular points of argument- I'm with you on not caring :p

I'll admit I was also confused as to why Springtrap and not the original animatronics, but the reason is simple. The animatronics are possessed by the souls of dead children, except Springtrap is actually William Afton, AKA the man who made the animatronics and killed said children. As the mastermind behind the evil, its natural that he's who the Entity will pick.

Yeah sorry lol. Nothing personal, I just never watched or found Hellraiser interesting. I'll watch it now that it's a popular theory though :)

He has a puzzle box that attacks the ######### out of people and rips them open or lasers etc....and his chain hooks. Basically full paranormal threat.

It doesn't mean they're not hinting at it. They've been posting other letters the past few days, why all of sudden is this one irrelevant now? Even if it's just about the dead dawg saloon being disabled, they could've took a another screenshot of the map without the H, but they didn't.

I don't know much about Hellraiser (never saw the movies), Candyman (never saw the movies only recap video) and watch gameplays of the two first FNAF.

Honestly i don't really care who it is, i just freaking enjoy that time when Devs teases us and everyone is in euphoria and theorise. It's honestly my happiest moment as being part of the community, seeing how everyone is giving their opinion and theories about the teases ect

Much love ! <3 And don't be to sad if it's not the killer you want to see it will come into the game eventually !

Here, hope this helps

I see it, it looks pretty clearly an H.

There's Bhvr's

Here's mine from Yesterday. Unless they're scratches in a form of an H, it seems like it's there

"EDIT: Seven "A" letters were posted when we got that letter. I thought this was just a random curiosity, since, on the Japanese Twitter, they only used 5 characters. However, according to Google Translate, the Japanese transliteration of "Pinhead" (which, you'll note, has seven letters) uses five characters."

Huh. Mind if I drop this in the big thread? (with credits, of course)

I can see the H on the before screenshots.

The H wasn't as clear as the other letters, I'm not convinced it's a hint.

Well colour me disappointed. As uninterested in Pinhead as I was the Twins.

Personally, I don't care who the new killer is (although I hope it isn't Springtrap; we do not need that community meshing with this one is all I'm saying) but we can't count Springtrap out just yet. There was a letter E and people said the letter H is in the photo of Dead Dawg Saloon. No, these letters don't spell Springtrap but it can be the start of Springtrap's reveal phrase or what he's known for. The phrases, "I'm still here" or "My name is Springtrap" and his reveal was very similar to how dbd is doing their reveal when Scott made the Springtrap drop. Ace being trapped in a carnival is very a Springtrap aesthetic as he's just a murderous man trapped in an animatronic suit + Fnaf is supposed to be an attraction to children. So Springtrap isn't down for the count yet.

Then there is the obvious Hellraiser. I don't see many other clues pointing to him other than a nail and these letters. Doesn't mean it's not him, just little evidence. However, the Japan count of letters (English is 7 letters, Japan is 5) makes it a good contender.

I've also heard of the patch notes mentioning an an S then an egg emoji then A. Sega which has a hand in Alien Isolation. So... Alien maybe a possibility? I'd also like to mention the egg emoji and the letters. If it IS Fnaf, the egg emoji could be a reference to Chica. Chica is one of the animatronics which is a chicken, her name is also spelled with 5 letters. Now the letters I do not know but I can at least connect the egg emoji to two franchises. Maybe spelling out Five Nights At Freddy's. As far as I know, Hellraiser doesn't have two S's if the letters from the patch notes are connected to these letters we're getting daily.

Also, why would BHVR just give away the full name of a killer before the ptb? I don't think they would. I think these letters might be spelling out a phrase or the franchise name (if it isn't short that is) similar to how they thought they were being clever adding the sandwich reference in the photo of Auto Haven when Chapter 20 was being speculated. The sandwich thing just confirmed to anyone involved with RE that it was in fact RE and Jill was most likely gonna be the new survivor (including me but I also knew Leon 100% was gonna be a survivor. He's Capcom's golden boy so of course they would) which is why I think, to my dismay, it is Springtrap.

Thank you! That sounds interesting and creepy. Wonder how it would translate into DbD.

He's probably the most recognisable horror character, but he's not exactly in with the times. I literally haven't seen/heard anything about him for over 20 years (funfair ride) He is recognisable though so fits the game, just an uncool character I think.

Hell yeah, Pinhead is confirmed. I'm excited for him.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Here you go! I’m so happy for the good news, especially knowing that it’s not FNAF.

I'm hype for Hellraiser or Springtrap. I really don't care at this rate I'm just hype for new killers and survivors!

Hope we eventually get Chucky, Pennywise and Jason as well 😀
