What killer would you definitely love to see in the future?
Obviously not going to include Jason, I doubt they'll ever get him since he has his own game. And there may be other killers out there that are much better than the ones listed below. I would love to see them and I'm sure it'll give the Dev's some ideas too.
Please feel free to leave a comment and discussion too with your vote on why you would love to see the killer(s) in game, it may broaden our movie-viewing horizons.

I think Happy Death Day chapter would really suit the game.
So for me, I chose other because I think it would be a cool concept to see a zombie-like killer with a combination of powers from both The Pig and The Plague. As a survivor, if you were to get bitten, you have a limited time to find a cure of some kind before the infection spreads throughout your body, killing you. It's kinda why I included The Buckner Family but seeing them, they aren't obvious zombie types, as Cabin In The Woods loves to mention.
is not caught by copyright, could have a promising power, cabrini green, helen lyle, and has a hook instead of hand in the right place where all killers have their weapons. perfect.
candyman, candyman, candyman, candyman, candyman ...
Ahhhh, Candyman would be absolutely wonderful. He would fit in perfectly with the Dead by Daylight universe. Imagine a perk called "Sweets to the Sweet" 😍
Reworked Clown.
Chucky is too small, I don't know why this is an option.
Pinhead, Werewolf and something creepy undead like a mummy or something from a grave
Jason Vorhees with a Camp setting. Similar to the swamp but with some water you could run through and not leave tracks but maybe make noise if you run.
I really want Jack the Ripper in this game. I feel like DBD is missing out on drawing ideas from serial killers that actually existed, and Jack would be a great start. Plus a level set in Victorian-era London would be fantastic.
I want a hotline miami chapter so bad.
The Tethered, otherwise known as the doppelgängers in red jumpsuits from the film Us (2019), The Terrifier, or the mime from the film of the same name, and maybe even Elizabeth Bathory as The Countess from the movie Stay Alive if they could swing the rights to her, just to name a few of my most wanted Killers.
Another original Killer.
Personally I just want something new and experimental. A Killer whose power is radically different from anything else and flips the game on it's head.
Hellraiser killer Pinhead.
I'm waiting on a davy jones!
This needs to be in the game. We would finally get a shape-shifter, and the map would be bad-ass! Also, Kurt Russel as Macready!!!
FNAF would be funny because the forums, twitter, and reddit would be a complete war zone and I find that amusing. I'm not against FNAF nor for it.
The licensed killer I want is Xenomorph/Ripley combo.
Non licensed would be a Werewolf or Knight killer, That would be super bad ass IMO.
Have you not seen the massive chucky costume? That would be a horrifying killer too fight.
Jack Torrence. His Mori would be him cutting open the survivors chest cavity, lift them up, look through it and say: "heeeeeres Johney".
I'd honestly rather have a character like Eyeless Jack but there's not much to do with it. Jack The Ripper could have a cool map and power.
Teemo for DBD...

Aside from Candyman and Chucky I hate to see that the really big licenses clearly everyone wants to see most aren't included in this poll. Hence why so many people are voting "Other" over most of the things actually listed.
AKA Pennywise and Pinhead.
Jason has a pretty big base and plenty of people who want him, but there are also plenty who don't want him (including me) or don't care as much if he gets added because he's got his own game (which died.) Also major license issues with the character (everybody knows about the lawsuit)
Honorable mentions: The Xenomorph from Alien and / or The Predator, and The Thing. There's a severe lack of sci-fi horror representation despite sci-fi horror being one of the most original kinds of horror (Mary Shelley's Frankenstein much??). The three characters I've mentioned are just very prominent and well liked in the genre, of course I'm sure BHVR could come up with their own very creative, unique Sci-Fi killers
