What licensed killers are we still missing.

In my opinion there's just a few licensed horror icons we are missing, that would fill up the horror hall of fame.
Jason - Probably the most iconic killer left, everyone would like him in the game, we need him. His power would probably be rage, going thru pallets and faster recovery after attack?
Chucky - Also one of the most iconic killer we are still missing, got award in the horror hall of fame, also one of the most unique killers we could get. His power would probably transfering his soul into the other dolls since his height would be good on its own.
Candyman - we've been waiting so long for him, still remember the hype about him when it was Silent hill, he needs to be in the game aswell, he has great powers to work with. Probably some kind of teleportation or bee's, but if he would be invisible like the old Freddy, that would be cool aswell.
Alien - also very iconic killer, watched the movies since i was kid, has a special place in my heart (like the all killers I've already mentioned) it would be cool if he could climb over walls, or spit his acid.
Pennywise - behavior's favorite license, always wanted him in the game, still wonder what would be his power, since he has so many of them, probably something about his deadlights, i doubt he would have shape shift, but it would be fun tho.

Aside from the ones you listed I would also add Slenderman, Sadako/Samara, The Tall Man from Phantasm, and one of the Universal Classic Monsters. Then you'd have all the big ones in DBD.
Springtrap would also count but I hate FNAF. Rather not have it in DBD. Though I understand it deserves a spot in DBD. Was going to mention the Creeper from Jeepers Creeper but as long as his creator still has some rights to the character he will never happen.
Megamind
Terminator?
Predator?
Ghostface from Scream.
So we can have two of ghostface
I've always been curious how a Big Daddy from Bioshock would work out. Seems like it could be made to work really well, but equally, might end up being just another chainsaw killer with a different lick of paint...
Don't forget some of the classic monster movie ones that may or may not be licensed
Also, getting back to more modern killers
I want more sci-fi horror other than Alien we could get The Thing, Predator, The Fly or even Slither could work.
They are all good, just felt these were bigger names and stuff..
So sad for Creeper, i don't want to mention him because i know he just will never be in the game.
As others have mentioned; A killer doll archetype (Chucky), an alien archetype (Xenomorph, or more likely something similar but legally distinct), the Wolfman or another slasher are sort of obvious choices.
I don't think we'll see Pennywise.
I'd personally like to see a plant-oriented killer, a bug-oriented killer (preferably the giant spider of my dreams) or The Thing.
Chucky and Alien would be cool, I just know they would be awesome.
Werewolf would be cool, i imagine he would have some boost when survivors are injured.
Why not? I know King is hard with sharing his licenses, but how much money he can decline? Also BHVR said it he is their favorite license.
Plant would be cool, would still need some time to think of it's powers but idk if spider would work. The thing would also be cool.
This is a VERY solid addition to the list that I fully support.
The Thing
oh pick from the huge ######### list
Imo the 3 most needed licenses we don't have are xenomorph, jason, and the grudge.
Jason Voorhees and Charles Lee Ray are the only a-list icons still missing. After that, they can kind of do whatever they want.
They can come into the game, I'm not against it i like them, but on my opinion they are not horror genre, but they do fit
I would like more horror game licenses
Idk if she is a licensed character, but Her Majesty The Vampire Queen, aka Queen Akasha from The Vampire Chronicles, would make an excellent choice for a vampire killer.
We are missing Nemesis.
Gingerdead Man.
The Hash-Slinging Slasher.
Sadaku/Samara from the Ring
Art the Clown. He's from Terrifier ... He makes our clown look like a Disney character lol Not alot of ppl have heard of him but he's creepy as hell.
Hannibal Lecter (Think more book or tv show version than movies)
The Blair Witch (Possibly a possessed Heather)
Headless Horseman
Fisherman (I Know What You Did Last Summer)
Additionally to those mentioned those belong into the Hall of Fame of Horror me thinks
