Listen, if you’ve ever played Dead by Daylight, you already know the deal: you’re either running for your life as a Survivor or channeling your inner villain as one of the Killers. But let’s get real for a second—some of these Killers? They’re serving serious scary-hot energy.
Don’t act surprised. You’ve seen them stalking through the fog with their menacing weapons and broody backstories. It’s a vibe. So, here’s my completely unhinged (but 100% valid) list of my favorite Killers in DBD and why they’ve earned a spot in my dark little heart.
1. The Huntress
Hot Factor: Buff, badass, and she sings to herself.
The Huntress is the OG terrifying mommy. She’s got that tall, powerful build that screams “I could throw you across the map and you’d thank me for it.” Her haunting lullaby makes my heart race every time, but let’s be honest—if I’m going down to one of her hatchets, it’s an honor.
Also, the bunny mask? Creepy. Cute. Iconic.
2. The Ghost Face
Hot Factor: It’s the mask and the sass for me.
Ghost Face gives off that chaotic, playful energy that’s both scary and oddly attractive. The way he peeks around corners, taunting you before making his move? Absolute menace. But you just know he’s the type to make you laugh before finishing you off (and maybe compliment your outfit).
He’s also got the “tall and mysterious” thing going on, which is always a win in my book.
3. The Trickster
Hot Factor: K-pop star gone rogue.
Okay, but can we talk about The Trickster? This man rolled up to the Entity’s realm with style, swagger, and a blade-filled bat. He’s flamboyant, cocky, and a little unhinged—all of which make him ridiculously attractive.
He also gives off “would ruin your life but make it fun” energy, and honestly? Same, King.
4. The Oni
Hot Factor: Giant, rage-fueled warrior vibes.
The Oni is terrifying in every way, and I love that for him. His sheer size, combined with his blood-soaked samurai aesthetic, is both horrifying and… strangely alluring? Like, sure, he could crush you with one swing of his club, but at least he’d look good doing it.
Plus, his growls and roars? Unreasonably hot. Don’t ask me to explain it.
5. The Artist
Hot Factor: Moody goth queen energy.
The Artist is the embodiment of “hot but will absolutely destroy you.” Her dark, artistic aesthetic and vengeful backstory make her one of the most captivating Killers in the game. The way she uses her ink and crows to trap Survivors? Chilling and beautiful at the same time.
She’s basically the villainous girlfriend we all secretly want.
6. The Shape (Michael Myers)
Hot Factor: Silent, menacing, and iconic.
Michael Myers is the original slasher bae. He doesn’t talk, he doesn’t run—he just exists with that slow, creepy confidence that’s equal parts terrifying and magnetic. There’s something about his complete lack of emotion that makes him even scarier—and, weirdly, hotter.
It’s probably the mask. Or the fact that he’s 6’5”. Either way, I’m not complaining.
7. The Wraith
Hot Factor: Invisible stalker with a tragic backstory.
The Wraith is one of those Killers that’s both terrifying and oddly sympathetic. His ability to cloak and appear out of nowhere makes him a nightmare to play against, but his backstory? Heartbreaking.
Plus, his glowing eyes and towering presence give him an otherworldly charm that’s hard to resist.
Why Are We Like This?
Is it the power dynamic? The tragic backstories? The masks? I don’t know, but there’s something about these Killers that makes running from them weirdly thrilling. They’re horrifying, they’re hot, and they’re always keeping me on my toes.
Now, tell me: who’s your favorite DBD Killer, and are you also questioning your life choices for finding them attractive? Drop your faves in the comments so we can thirst over them together. (No judgment—this is a safe space.)
Game on, scream queens. 💀
