I want to clarify that I like the original killers but think licensed killers are fundamental in this game.

I propose some names:
Ghostface, Pinhead, Jason Voorhees, Chucky, Jeepers Creepers, Harry Warden, Smiley, Babyface, Hannibal Lecter.

    I don't see Jason Voorhees joining until the Friday 13th lawsuit gets finished.. Maybe not even then, but no way before that.

    Chucky, No way. The hag is already horrible to use in the corn or taller stalks of grass in swamp. She is just so short she can't see over it. There is NO WAY I would play anyone shorter than her, and there is no way the devs would make Chucky taller.

    Jeepers Creepers: I know nothing about this, other than I have heard the producer had some, shall we say, legal problems that BHVR may not want to be associated with. But never saw the movies nor do I know anything about the story line.

    I actually want to see a Robot killer that can see survivors foot prints and can see them from a far distance with his ability and allow his to see through wall. 
    But make him a slow ranged killer with a big terror radius

    Ghostface slenderman or Jason... Crystal lake map and a two floor highschool similar build to the game without sliding doors.

    I wanna see Ghostface with a locker teleport power or perk. A perk he leaves a phone next to the Gen and it rings when a Survivor touches the Gen letting him know someone is there so he can teleport through the locker over there.

    I would be incredibly happy if they never released another licensed killer. They're unnecessary and take money away from the devs that could be put towards making the game better (e.g. dedicated servers).

    Honestly? Kayako from The Grudge and/or Samara from the Ring.

    Samata: All survivors start together, held down by the Entity's tentacles and are forced to watch the tape. Once they are released from the chairs, Samara can haunt them as the match goes on. The terror from the tapes decreases all survivors' repair speed by 70% (7 days) and for each generator completed by a survivor the timer for the tape to begin allowing Samara to hunt them is decreased by a certain amount. Once the timer is up TVs will begin popping up around the map like Doctor Hallucinations, allowing Samara to teleport to them and chase the survivor. If they are facing Samara when hit it is an instant down. A TV is instantly placed in front of the hook when a survivor is hooked and will only turn on, allowing teleportation to it, when a survivor suffering from the tape is near it. Samara won't be able to be seen by unaffected survivors and the survivors can not become unaffected once the tape takes it's toll on them (unless they think of a "Copy tape" mechanic which speeds up the time it takes to become effected by the tape for someone else who is also unaffected).

    Kayako: Kayako will be the most agile killer. She will be able to vault Windows as fast as survivors and grab them from the vaulting animation if they are too close. She will be able to phase through pallets just like she does during The Grudge 3 and will crawl everywhere, given how her spine was broken. Her terror radius will be replaced by the chilling gurgle she does but will have the downside of being unable to pull people off of interactions.

    1. Onryō killer (Kayako and Samara)
    2. Ghostface

    I don't care how underpowered they have to be, I'd play them night and day just to be ######### creepy.

    Which iteration of Kayako and Samara? The Kayako from the Japanese film is much more terrifying due to the built suspense and the associated fear of the gurgle. The American Films (especially 3) depict her as much more brutal and quick. Hell, her sister being a Ju-On spirit would most likely work better in DBD.

    The giant gremlin of course (well it might be giant, but still would be as tall as the hag). Put his shorter friends into lockers and generator for gremlin sabotage purpose and jump scare fun. Cute mogwais could lead to news mechanics. Finding one around a corner of the map, might give you the opportunity to feed it, but there's always a chance you fed a bad one, and thus giving the giant gremlin another cousin to use for sabotage ... stuff like that.!

    Norman Bates - How great would it be to have a Killer that looked like a Survivor? Talk about scary.......

    Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man - That would be just for the laughs.

    Dracula - No brainer there. Classic killer.

    The Thing - Anything from John Carpenter's brain is pretty scary.

    Xenomorph - Could be cool but sci-fi doesn't seem to fit in.

    Most of the others have already been mentioned.

    DBD definitely needs to be home for the great horror movie vilain all stars. Now with Freddy, leather face, and M.Myers, their collection is nice already, but there could be so much more ... Jason, Pinehead, Ghostface, Candyman, the tall man, ... , and also gremlins :p

    1.The Thing Chapter,with the south pole reasearcs lab as a new map and Childs as a new survivor.
    2.Stranger Things Chapter,with the demagorgon killer and bob as a survivor,maybe the hwkins research center as a map
    3.Jeepers Creepes Chapter,The Creeper as a killer and thris as the survivor with the old church map
    4.Until Dawn chapter,with a Wendigo killer,Chris as a survivor and the lodge map

    None. The devs' original Killers are always more interesting than some B-grade horror movie Killers.

    Agreed. People just need to take a look at the weakest killers. Freddy, wraith, pig, leatherface. 3 out of 4 are licensed.

    Myers is not a great killer as well.

    It's not about tiers or whatever. They just aren't interesting characters.

    Pinhead simply because he is my favorite horror character, though aside from hell on earth I don't recall him ever chasing people so I'm not sure how they would go about making him. A close second would be Pyramid Head from Silent Hill.

    The Hash Slinging Slasher.

    No other killer will do.

    Well , that depends on the license. For instance , the devs got the Leatherface license for free.

    Ummm...pretty sure that's not true. You would have to show some type of proof to back that statement up.

    Candyman, he's perfect for DBD. Sinister, self-righteous, sympathetic, yet very disturbing. I'd go nuts if they released him.

    Not chucky! Anything besides Chucky! If that little ######### will actually be added then the game will be dead to me, he is the least scary thing ever and would make no sense

    I'm sure Jason will eventually make it into Dead By Daylight cause ya know people like to make money.

    I think the Nun from the new movie would be creepy as fck and an interesting Killer.

    The Jason part is actually false. Not Queen said, even after the F13 lawsuit happened that Jason is a likely candidate for a future killer.

    Or The Jackal (Or any of the others tbh) from 13 ghosts (So I can get a Matthew Lillard based survivor. For... reasons)
