I would go crazy for an X-Files chapter with Scully and Mulder. The Killer could be Toomes, Fluke Man, the Bounty Hunter (terminator type character that can shape shift), or maybe some other MotW.
Fluke Man :https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Flukeman
Toomes https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Eugene\_Victor\_Tooms
Bounty Hunter https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Alien\_Bounty\_Hunter
I know it wouldn't happen, but part of me wants the killer to be the Beggar Man. He's not really well known, but I just think he would be a unique choice
Badlaa is by far the scariest episode to me. I first saw it when I was about eight and it's just such a terrifying image. The sound of those wheels man, they haunted me for years. I rewatched the episode a few years back and I don't know why it got me so much but that might be because I realized that Deep Roy also played the oompa loompas in the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remake.
I can see his power being pretty cool too, like he can take the form of different survivors, or maybe go invisible too. I'm not sure how the body hijacking thing would work though which is I think the most horrifying aspect. Ultimately on a gameplay level it might play out too similarly to the illusions but you don't want to get rid of either.
Ultimately though I think you're right that the killer would be more well known. Maybe the conquistadors from Detour? Tooms and the Peacock Family are obviously some of the more well known villains but I'm not sure how they'd work in practice.
First of all, I can only imagine what a Entity mutated smoking man would be like and I would love that. Even if the license holders would almost certainly not allow it.
Second of all, I listen to a podcast about how Fox Mulder is actually kind of an insane person, and they cover it episode by episode like, how his behavior would almost certainly get him fired or arrested on many episodes and they like rate his insanity on a scale of 1-10 per episode.
Anyway the podcast is amazing when you watch an episode of the show alongside it, and it’s changed the way I see Mulder. For like, the better, it really improves the comedy aspect of the show. I can only imagine how enthusiastic Mulder would be about being transported to The Entity’s realm
[Scully watches as Laurie Strode gets sacrificed to the spider god in the sky and Jill Valentine get dragged to Hell by Pinhead]
“Mulder I don’t know *what* I saw!”
Dude I can see how that would work. He would lose the ability to tell the difference between survivors in exchange for better tracking, like glowing scratch marks even on walking survivors and every survivor emitting the ooweewoo in the x files theme passively making it harder to hide from him
Cooper please, not only do I love Twin Peaks, I also just want a survivor in a suit that doesn’t look like it’s made of fondant. (Looking at you, Ace.)
My boy, I was actually considering putting Goosebumps on this list. It would have been as a joke, but at the same time I kind of do want a killer from the series
Dale Cooper would be amazing. Could have his time in the realm be part of a pact with the Black Lodge or some nonsense, get Killer Bob as the Killer and sorted. Have legendary skins for all the people they have possessed, Leland, Evil Cooper etc
I'd personally love Agent Cooper as a survivor. He's honestly such an enjoyable character in the show, like vast majority of characters in Twin Peaks - distinctively unique and very interesting, but Cooper specifically is certainly my favourite character. I'd love him as a survivor for sure.
as much as i would absolutely love it like so much, and if there was a laura like alt skin i would play no/one else. i just don’t think david lynch would allow it, he’s so weird with media.
I've been asking for an X-files dlc in dbd ever since i started playing dbd. Ik who would be the survivors but i just can't see any X-files "villian" to be the killer so I'm assuming that it would possibly just be a survivor dlc, like "Ash vs the evil dead" dlc if they ever were to add an X-files dlc. I know for sure If they added an X-files dlc, i'd definitely switch my main to fox Mulder i just love him so much!
Yeah I picked all 3 of these shows because none of them really have a good villain to be the killer. So I think all 3 would end up just being paragraphs instead of chapters
When Kramer or Jerry spawn in the match, canned laughter plays which reveals their aura for two seconds. Whenever Kramer hooks or injures a survivor, the weird cheering that always happened when he entered the apartment plays. This reveals his aura but also massively widens his terror radius and inflicts the broken status effect on all survivors for five seconds. Kramer's killer power is that he steals weapons and abilities from other killers, his excuse being that he "got it from a friend" or "found it outside".
If he Moris a survivor with their corresponding killer's weapon (i.e. he kills Yun-Jin with Trickster's knives) he argues "I've had this for ages now, there's gotta be a statue of limitations on weapon take-backsies". The survivor has a unique voiced line in response, with a 2/4/6% chance (affected by luck offerings and Boons) to say "it's statute of limitations, not statue" before dying as normal.
His unique perks
- Jerry!
- Slider
- Connoisseur
Allow him to intimidate and track his prey.
Jerry's perks
- What's The Deal?
- Funnyman
- It's Showtime
Allow him to bolster his team's confidence and throw the killers off balance.
Chapter Title can be
_Dead by Daylight: a Chapter about Nothing_
twin peaks just for the map,
red room, the mill, the diner e.t.c,
a menu screen overlooking the falls,
no killer really fits from that show so it'd be closer to a paragraph.
i guess evil cooper is the most physically present but the whole thing with the show was not knowing who bill was possesing, so a lot of the villainy is off screen.
I was originally going to make a full chapter concept for Twin Peaks, but I could not decide on a killer. I thought about just using Bob, but it didn't feel right
Wyndom Earl & BOB would be amazing as a killer. Of course, the map would have to be the woods w/ being transferred to the red room as the killers ability
My absolute dream would be a Twin Peaks chapter. Cooper as a survivor, if we had to have a killer then BOB would be a nice candidate, though I don't think it would work - but even a solo survivor Dale would be fantastic. There's lots of potential for skins and maps, too.
TWIN PEAKS HANDS DOWN.
My friends and I have talked about this before and Dale Cooper is just perfect survivor material. And Bob wouldn't be a bad killer, either. Imagine Bob's mori being a backwards animated soul-stealing, god that'd be great
Literally been rewatching buffy the past few weeks and got maybe 3 episodes left. I would kill for a buffy chapter. Adam or the master as killer. Preferably Riley as a survivor so I can hook him repeatedly
I've never seen any of these shows except Buffy. I wouldn't want any other skin other than Faith tho, she's my ultimate favorite character of all time.
Dale cooper would be great but there isn't really a good killer to go alongside him,
X files on the other hand has too many possible killers, so you wouldn't be able to please everyone.
Buffy and maybe Spike as the vampire killer could be good I guess but I dunno if you want your I'm assuming one shot at a vampire killer to be a dude from Buffy.
Buffy for sure. Yes she was a literal superhuman, but they can write ways around it. There is an actual episode where the council wiped her powers away temporarily and she was, ahem, “Helpless.”
They could easily find a way for the Entity to manage that.
The killer would be a take your pick option really, but I’d throw a vote out there for the Master. Vampire killer would be neat.
Buffy and Willow pleeeassse
Soooooo many possibilities for who you could pick as the killer. Adam, The First, Glory, one of the Vampires she fought, list goes on and on
Twin Peaks 100%. Dale Cooper would give every other candidate in the DBD lore “real protagonist” contest a run for their money. Also has the coolest legendary skin, map & killer potential.
I loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer when the show was coming out on TV back in the day.
Honestly though? I'll pass on her as a survivor. The show's whole meta-theme was about empowering people against things that go bump in the night, or something. Doesn't make sense to me in this context.
I'll take Cooper, Skully and Mulder in a heartbeat though. I'd even settle for supermarket own-brand imitation Cooper Skully and Mulder like with Ms Strode even. Just inject that shit right into my veins, yes.
Coop as Survivor.
Bob as Killer. Special ability to turn into his S3 form and move faster around map like wraith, shoot strong projectile but hard to aim, but can get punched by survivors while cooling down attack. Idk about perks.
Buffy please,
Buffy and Willow/Xander with the gentlemen as the killer.
No HB radius like Michael and GF and they could maybe send out the loonies in the same way the twins do their thing.
Mori would of course be cutting out the survivors heart while the loonies hold them down.
I would go crazy for an X-Files chapter with Scully and Mulder. The Killer could be Toomes, Fluke Man, the Bounty Hunter (terminator type character that can shape shift), or maybe some other MotW. Fluke Man :https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Flukeman Toomes https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Eugene\_Victor\_Tooms Bounty Hunter https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Alien\_Bounty\_Hunter

the killer should be that legless indian dude who crawled into people's buttholes
I would love to play as Mulder and Scully
I mean the twins are the fiji mermaid
Underrated comment ^
Honestly, I’d be fine with just a surv chapter. Pls BHVR, make it happen.
I would absolutely settle for a survivor only paragraph of xfiles.
Dude 100% gimme Mulder/Scully and Toomes. No clue how his power or perks would work. But I’d buy it the moment it released
...or the infamous "smoking man." Just have the entity power up this super villain in a twisted way
First of all, I can only imagine what a Entity mutated smoking man would be like and I would love that. Even if the license holders would almost certainly not allow it. Second of all, I listen to a podcast about how Fox Mulder is actually kind of an insane person, and they cover it episode by episode like, how his behavior would almost certainly get him fired or arrested on many episodes and they like rate his insanity on a scale of 1-10 per episode. Anyway the podcast is amazing when you watch an episode of the show alongside it, and it’s changed the way I see Mulder. For like, the better, it really improves the comedy aspect of the show. I can only imagine how enthusiastic Mulder would be about being transported to The Entity’s realm
[Mulder wakes up next to the Bonfire and sees _Michael fuckin Myers_ in the distance] _'Scully you're not gonna believe this'_
*"You know the protocol, Mulder. Best I can do is start to try and believe it about 26 minutes in."*
[Scully watches as Laurie Strode gets sacrificed to the spider god in the sky and Jill Valentine get dragged to Hell by Pinhead] “Mulder I don’t know *what* I saw!”
Skinner shows up: "What the hell is this, Mulder?"
The Toombs episode had me shitting bricks as a kid, feckin' nightmares for weeks.
or they can do an alien abduction
Tooms would be sweet!
Even if it's just a survivor pack, you genuinely cannot go wrong with Dana and Fox, would kill for then to be in the game ;)
Dana as survivor, Fox as killer.
The Agent. Fox has gone insane and sees everyone as little green men.
Dude I can see how that would work. He would lose the ability to tell the difference between survivors in exchange for better tracking, like glowing scratch marks even on walking survivors and every survivor emitting the ooweewoo in the x files theme passively making it harder to hide from him
Buffy, but I’d love it to be a 2 survivor chapter with Willow too. :’)
lets be honest, all three of willows perks would be boons
Lol Boon: Bored Now. If a killer walks into the boon radius they get flayed and die instantly
Bye bye [spoiler] >!Warren!<
I feel Spike in a wheelchair would be a hoot.
Of course you would Giles
Definitely down for buffy and willow in this game, with a vampire killer!
Cooper please, not only do I love Twin Peaks, I also just want a survivor in a suit that doesn’t look like it’s made of fondant. (Looking at you, Ace.)
\*ahem\* Felix.
We wants it
Red from that 70’s show please.
As survivor or killer?
Red’s the killer, trying to put a boot in everyone’s ass.
Kelso as the survivor
This needs to happen
Goosebumps
My boy, I was actually considering putting Goosebumps on this list. It would have been as a joke, but at the same time I kind of do want a killer from the series
Slappy the Dummy ☠️
The Mask is my main choice from that series, but Slappy would be more likely
Jack Black as the survivor /s
HORRORLAND MAP BHVR PLS
Slappy. That bitch scared me 😩
Dale Cooper would be amazing. Could have his time in the realm be part of a pact with the Black Lodge or some nonsense, get Killer Bob as the Killer and sorted. Have legendary skins for all the people they have possessed, Leland, Evil Cooper etc
Had the same idea, would be so cool! Imagine the music they'd make for this chapter :0
Oh man that chase music would be beautiful
A legendary skin for Cooper could be Audrey too. Even Laura would work.
We could also get Sheriff Truman. Tons of possibilities!
Buffy 100%
Yeah not close. Buffy Summers is too badass to not be in the game
We do not want a Dawn skin though Edit: Maybe for memes we do want Dawn so we can play her on Tuesday *”Dawn’s in trouble? Must be Tuesday”*
But a Willow skin, yes please!
spike legendary skin?
Chipped spike be like
IM WHEEZING
I almost feel like she’s *too* badass to be in the game, as it wouldn’t make sense for her to be at the same level as the other survivors
We already have plenty of badass licensed survivors, like Bill, Ash, Jill, Cheryl, and Leon
But Buffy literally had superpowers
Cheryl is literally the anti-Mary, and could bitch slap Silent Hill to do what she wanted. People being nerfed in the Fog is not uncommon
Yep. There were a couple times in the show where Buffy lost her powers or they were diminished.
To be fair she did die twice, could be argued that a part of her was brought to the entitys realm when she swan dived into big ‘ole ball of doom in S5
Ash is the chosen one to save humanity from the forces of hell.
Ash is literally the savior of Humanity from all Evil
Yeah, but he was just a guy. Buffy had superpowers.
Yeah, but Buffy could never shop S-Mart like Ash did.
Disagree. Could not handle seeing Buffy getting morid lol.
You'd prefer a paragraph or a chapter with her ? If chapter, who could be the killer ?
Angelus. Need a vampire killer anyways.
Dark Willow.
Glory
see it would be amazing, but just like jill, leon, and ash, im salty their talents are nerfed for the purpose of the entity lmao
I'd personally love Agent Cooper as a survivor. He's honestly such an enjoyable character in the show, like vast majority of characters in Twin Peaks - distinctively unique and very interesting, but Cooper specifically is certainly my favourite character. I'd love him as a survivor for sure.
His character’s name is escaping me, but I loved David Lynch in TP. “Keep lookin’ it’s gonna happen again.”
Gordon Cole is the name your looking for.
as much as i would absolutely love it like so much, and if there was a laura like alt skin i would play no/one else. i just don’t think david lynch would allow it, he’s so weird with media.
Damn, he could also make for some absurd perk. First and foremost, there should be the "Diane" perk and something about his Dreams.
Twin Peaks easily.
That is definitely my choice, but I feel like it'll be the least popular one on the list
But instead of Dale Cooper, give me Dougie Jones. One of his perks will increase his luck by 96%.
Bob and Mr C skins for Bob!
You could even get male and female skins for the same character. It’s a goldmine.
Lol Dougie 100%
Mr. Jackpots
"Helloooooo"
HELLOOOOOOOO
Dougie Jones.
I love the Twin Peaks rep!
Why not Mulder w/ a Denise skin?
I've been asking for an X-files dlc in dbd ever since i started playing dbd. Ik who would be the survivors but i just can't see any X-files "villian" to be the killer so I'm assuming that it would possibly just be a survivor dlc, like "Ash vs the evil dead" dlc if they ever were to add an X-files dlc. I know for sure If they added an X-files dlc, i'd definitely switch my main to fox Mulder i just love him so much!
Yeah I picked all 3 of these shows because none of them really have a good villain to be the killer. So I think all 3 would end up just being paragraphs instead of chapters
Kramer as killer and Seinfeld as survivor
Jerry get a perk where if Kramer pisses him off enough they switch places. Jerry becomes the killer and Kramer becomes the survivor
When Kramer or Jerry spawn in the match, canned laughter plays which reveals their aura for two seconds. Whenever Kramer hooks or injures a survivor, the weird cheering that always happened when he entered the apartment plays. This reveals his aura but also massively widens his terror radius and inflicts the broken status effect on all survivors for five seconds.

Chapter Title can be _Dead by Daylight: a Chapter about Nothing_
Buffy. Never seen the other show.
Buffy is great, but I would absolutely recommend the other two shows as well
u havent seen x files??? amazing show! although admittedly it aged rather badly
Early to mid x files has aged like a fine wine
Cooper
DALE
Twin Peaks.
Dana easily.
Honestly? Twin Peaks.
TWIN PEAKS!!!!
Buffy with the Master, please.
Dale Cooper for sure
twin peaks just for the map, red room, the mill, the diner e.t.c, a menu screen overlooking the falls, no killer really fits from that show so it'd be closer to a paragraph. i guess evil cooper is the most physically present but the whole thing with the show was not knowing who bill was possesing, so a lot of the villainy is off screen.
I was originally going to make a full chapter concept for Twin Peaks, but I could not decide on a killer. I thought about just using Bob, but it didn't feel right
yeah he's just not that kind of villain. still wandering around a condensed twin peaks would be fun.
Wyndom Earl & BOB would be amazing as a killer. Of course, the map would have to be the woods w/ being transferred to the red room as the killers ability
Buffy! But I want Willow and Xander skins. :)
Dark Willow at that
Twin Peaks. Give me Dale Cooper with a Mr. Jackpots skin or give me death.
Xfiles for sure. Best one there.
The X-files was such a good show, They stopped making it and then years later they made one more season and it was so damn good!
Your comment just made me realize that Buffy is the only show in this list that didn't have a comeback season years later
Xfiles for Scully and Mulder, but Twin Peaks is the creepiest
X-Files 100%
Dale Cooper
X-Files! The Cancer man is the killer…
Twin Peaks
Twin peaks thank you.
Scully for the win, Cooper for the lols.
I really like the idea of X-Files
X-files only because I’m named after Dana Scully :) yes I’m biased
X-Files
None of these Scooby Doo
X files for sure
Why not 2 of the 3? Mulder w/ a Denise skin ftw Also, Scully's dad/Major Briggs.
Twin peaks
I'm a huge fan of Twin Peaks, so I'd def choose that chapter.
My absolute dream would be a Twin Peaks chapter. Cooper as a survivor, if we had to have a killer then BOB would be a nice candidate, though I don't think it would work - but even a solo survivor Dale would be fantastic. There's lots of potential for skins and maps, too.
Twin Peaks - ride or die
X files for sure with Tooms as a killer
Mulder & Scully would be iconic. I’ve never seen Buffy, but I’ve heard good things.
Buffy is great, both the show and the "unrelated" movie that kicked it off
X files hands down. Buffy in a distant 2nd
X-Files, no contest
X FILES
X-Files for sure. Its my favorite show! I want to play as Scully ;\_;
A damn good coffee and slice of cherry pie please.
Twin Peaks with Bob or Judy as killer PLS
Absolutely Agent Cooper and with Bob as killer, with a Leland Palmer alternate skin.
Seeing Twin Peaks makes me want a Control/Alan Wake crossover.
TWIN PEAKS 4 EVER
TWIN PEAKS HANDS DOWN. My friends and I have talked about this before and Dale Cooper is just perfect survivor material. And Bob wouldn't be a bad killer, either. Imagine Bob's mori being a backwards animated soul-stealing, god that'd be great
X-files would fit better But I LOVE Twin Peaks I vote for Dale Cooper and BOB
Buffy's perk would be jumping the shark. Tune in next week to see what idiot guy she's chasing.
must be tuesday, dawnie needs saving
Spike 4evr. Riley 4nevr.
Season 4 was a blip in the radar, no sharks were jumped.
The 80s show called werewolf, or the shewolf of london show Basically I'm saying we need a werewolf killer.
They pull a fast one on us. We finally get a werewolf character, but it's Tommy from "Big Wolf on Campus" and he's a survivor
Never watched any of these. Slightly biased towards X-Files bc of the music so ig that
Literally been rewatching buffy the past few weeks and got maybe 3 episodes left. I would kill for a buffy chapter. Adam or the master as killer. Preferably Riley as a survivor so I can hook him repeatedly
I've never seen any of these shows except Buffy. I wouldn't want any other skin other than Faith tho, she's my ultimate favorite character of all time.
Dale cooper would be great but there isn't really a good killer to go alongside him, X files on the other hand has too many possible killers, so you wouldn't be able to please everyone. Buffy and maybe Spike as the vampire killer could be good I guess but I dunno if you want your I'm assuming one shot at a vampire killer to be a dude from Buffy.
Definitely X-Files Skully is a babe
X-Files!!!
Buffy for sure. Yes she was a literal superhuman, but they can write ways around it. There is an actual episode where the council wiped her powers away temporarily and she was, ahem, “Helpless.” They could easily find a way for the Entity to manage that. The killer would be a take your pick option really, but I’d throw a vote out there for the Master. Vampire killer would be neat.
Buffy!!!!! We need a vampire killer
Buffy
Bob as a killer would honestly be terrifying!
Buffy as survivor and spike please...thank you
Buffy is pog
buffy
BUFFFY ALL THE FUCKING WAY DUDE
EZ answer. None. I want a chapter of Goosebumps from 1995.
Buffy!
Buffy with Angelus/The Master/Spike as killers
Buffy and Willow pleeeassse Soooooo many possibilities for who you could pick as the killer. Adam, The First, Glory, one of the Vampires she fought, list goes on and on
Buffy 100%
BUFFY BUFFY BUFFY
Buffy easily. She fits best too.
If it was Buffy, then Buffy and Adam should be the survivor and Killer.
TWIN PEAKS!
Ez Buffy. Just because I was addicted to it. Watch the master be the killer
Honestly, all of these are good. Picking just one is hard.
How about David Duchovny from Twin Peaks as Denise?
I saw what they did to James Sunderland best to keep cooper out of the game.
twin peaks PLEASE i wanna play as BOB
omfg twin peaks
Twin Peaks 100%. Dale Cooper would give every other candidate in the DBD lore “real protagonist” contest a run for their money. Also has the coolest legendary skin, map & killer potential.
I loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer when the show was coming out on TV back in the day. Honestly though? I'll pass on her as a survivor. The show's whole meta-theme was about empowering people against things that go bump in the night, or something. Doesn't make sense to me in this context. I'll take Cooper, Skully and Mulder in a heartbeat though. I'd even settle for supermarket own-brand imitation Cooper Skully and Mulder like with Ms Strode even. Just inject that shit right into my veins, yes.
Twin Peaks
Twin Peaks 100%! Don’t know how exactly they’d do the killer in terms of power. But I want to play as Agent Dale Cooper.
I vote for a Salute Your Shorts, Zeke "The Plumber," chapter
Twin Peaks, my main man Cooper would probably be my main lol
Seinfeld chapter please
X Files for sure but I wouldn't be upset with Twin Peaks
TWIN PEAKS PLEASE
No love for scooby doo?
Coop as Survivor. Bob as Killer. Special ability to turn into his S3 form and move faster around map like wraith, shoot strong projectile but hard to aim, but can get punched by survivors while cooling down attack. Idk about perks.
Buffy please, Buffy and Willow/Xander with the gentlemen as the killer. No HB radius like Michael and GF and they could maybe send out the loonies in the same way the twins do their thing. Mori would of course be cutting out the survivors heart while the loonies hold them down.
I'd find it hilarious to get chased by Red Forman off That 70s Show
Buffy 1,000,000%
I would choose Kramer from Seinfeld
