New Killer Speculation

Assuming it's the furthest in the past, ideas I have are: a knight who goes crazy during the crusades and fights for God, a pirate who's been shot (possibly based off a real pirates story) or a cowboy (the least likely but I just wanted to think of something radically different). What are your ideas? Any expansions on my own?

    We need a vampire or a werewolf with Van Helsing as the survivor.

    I like the idea of a non human killer like a werewolf. Also the vampire could have a nice drain kind of ability

    I think it's going to be a plague doctor.
    I really hope it is.

    However a knight killer wouldn't be bad.

    Plague Doctor sounds amazing...

    As cool as it sounds, I think a Plague Doctor would be too easily confused with Herman and probably just be a skin for him.
    Like how a Santa killer is unlikely due to Kenneth's santa skin.

    I like the pirate idea though. Makes more sense to me than a rogue knight (which is saying something since I can see that too).

    I have a feeling the spring chapter will be centered on a licensed survivor and killer. For example, possibly Ghostface (The Stalker) and Sidney Prescott. Otherwise, it could be Jason Voorhees and probably Chris Higgins. If we don't get Jason, we could probably see him for the summer chapter or not at all next year. He could be released for the fall chapter (bc of Halloween) as well.

    For an original killer, probably a plague doctor and a female survivor who's African American. If not a plague doctor, then either a wendigo or an insect-based killer, probably a spider killer. The Spider can make 'crackling' bug noises that people find creepy and/or annoying.

    It's not going to be Ghostface or Jason because this killer was confirmed to be the oldest. Jason is around the 80s and Ghostface is from 1996.

    Well, @not_queen said he has a 'standing invitation' or something along those lines (Jason).

    I didn't say that Jason can't be added to the game, I said that neither him or Ghostface are going to be added on the next chapter because the next killer comes before the 1900.

    I still think The Creeper should be a killer, he doesn't need to fly to be cool.

    For the record, I don't care if the director or whatever was a kiddy-lover, The Creeper is a separate thing in my opinion.

    Didn't they say the next killer would by far, predate the others? I would expect something midevil like a knight or a priest based on that.

    We need Benedict Baker as a killer. A survivor that has been in the entities realm for so long he has lost all hope and has resigned himself to the darkness and servitude of the entity.

    That would be awesome! I imagine a Native American killer having a special power such as a Bow and Arrow and then for his M1 it would be a tribal Tomahawk. Then taking a scalp as a Mori would be pretty cool. Could be alot like Leatherface where you have to scalp X amount of a certain survivor to get a special reward.

    I hope for some kind of priest with church map(not a lame substitude of a church like Father Cambell's chappel). It would be neat if it had some kind of underground layer or a tomb with very narrow corridors.

    Hopefully they can do something that doesn’t require a license but isn’t exactly original to DBD either, like Van Helsing, Hansel and Gretel, something of folklore but dark...

    I want to yank survivors to me like the strangler from Last Year.

    Some pirate killer, with a ranged hook grab.

    Does a hardy laugh when he snags someone. I think that would be pretty cool.

    I really hope it’s not a Native American Killer, as I’m worried that it’ll turn out stereotypical and offensive. 

    I hope it’s a nun though. That’s a very popular trope and could turn out to be terrifying.

    Oh god no. For some reason I have a deep hatred for pirates and they put them everywhere... I hope this game will remain pirate-less

    Dude... That would be so annoying...
    But so deserving to those who sit beforethe exit... But after the flames would be real.
    Could also be a bandaid solution for a hatch standoff?
