One of the original trio, Evan, is a sadistic killer, one that idolises his daddy too much, which led to the deaths of more than 100 miners – not that his involvement in the tragedy has ever been proven. Weapon: Evan chooses to wield a cleaver, one that he created himself using the metals found in his family’s mine. Unique perks: Power: The Trapper...
The second of the original trio is The Wraith. He was once a decent human being, simply trying to make a living at a scrap yard, choosing to ignore the criminal activity that took place there. So long as Philip wasn’t involved, he didn’t care. That is, until he discovers a man in the trunk of a car. Letting him go, the man doesn’t get far before Ph...
The final killer of the original trio is Max Thompson Jr, and to say his upbringing was despicable would be an understatement. His parents were wealthy landowners, having a child they didn’t ask for, one that’s disfigured, causing them to lock him away. However, revenge is a sweet dish, one that Max served cold when he ferociously murdered his pare...
Dead by Daylight welcomed Sally Smithson in 2016, with her serving as the killer in The Last Breath Chapter. Once upon a time, she had a good life, but her husband lost his life while working, forcing Sally to take a job at an insane asylum, where patients subjected her to emotional and physical abuse. Of course, there’s only so much one can take b...
You know, it doesn’t have to be Halloween for Michael Myers to be stab happy. The horror icon hit Dead by Daylight in 2016 as part of the Halloween Chapter. Anybody that’s seen his movies knows he stops at nothing to kill his victims. Once, he was an innocent child, that’s until he murdered his older sister. Weapon: Unsurprisingly, Myers wields the...
The Hag grew up in a quiet village, until she was kidnapped and tortured by cannibals. She saw many victims die while being held hostage. Yet, she hung on, until finally, death came for her, though she swore an oath, allowing her to exact revenge on her cruel kidnappers. Unfortunately, this also meant Lisa’s humanity was gone, leaving behind an evi...
Dead by Daylight welcomed The Doctor in 2017, and he’s a bit insane. He got his killing career started in a prison, one where his one job was to extract information, and he took this to mean by any means necessary. Weapon: The Doctor’s weapon is known as the stick, and it’s an old favourite of his. It always extracts information, even if other inst...
Anna’s past is sad. She was raised in the woods, in an environment that taught her to be a survivor, but this came at the cost of not having anybody besides her mother. A horrific accident meant her mum was ripped from her while she was a child, forcing her to look after herself. Soon enough, she sought companionship, and began kidnapping the daugh...
Say hello to another horror icon, chances are you’re more familiar with Bubba Sawyer’s nickname, Leatherface, the murderous chainsaw-wielding maniac from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series. And yes, the mask he wears is made from the face of a victim. However, there’s a tinge of sadness to his story, in that it’s not the carnal pleasure he seeks fr...
One, two, Freddy’s coming for you. That’s right people, it’s the stuff of nightmares, Freddy Krueger himself. There are two different backgrounds to him, but Dead by Daylight embraces the 2010 remake, meaning that Freddy was abusing children in a pre-school, that is until the parents of his victims burned him alive. Now he’s back, with more determi...

- Trapper (Evan MacMillan) Dead By Daylight’s poster boy is, as his name says, a bit fond of setting traps. A hulking giant swathed in scars and cracked skin, the Trapper carries a homemade rusty cleaver to finish off those who fall foul of his gnarly bear traps.
- Hillbilly (Max Thompson Jr.) This disfigured hammer-wielding maniac is bad enough when he’s lumbering after you normally with a very real threat of violent head trauma, but when his chainsaw comes out, survivors will really panic.
- Hag (Lisa Sherwood) Perhaps the closest Dead By Daylight has to its own Blair Witch, The Hag was born from an encounter with mysterious forces on a stormy night in the woods.
- Huntress (Anna) The Huntress has an axe to grind with Dead By Daylight’s survivors. She’s not particularly mad at them for anything, she just likes using her axe to cleave her victims into a meaty woodpile.
