Famous horror director approaches Dead By Daylight devs for dream collaboration

There are a lot of dream collaborations fans have for Dead By Daylight. One is actually happening very soon with Five Nights At Freddy’s, meanwhile, Tokyo Ghoul is fully releasing soon, too. While these are two huge crossovers for DBD, a famous horror movie director has approached Dead By Daylight devs for a dream collaboration.

Horror movie director approaches Dead By Daylight devs for collaboration

Don Coscarelli is a famous horror movie director with a passionate fanbase. He has done more than just horror with fantasy movies such as The Beastmaster, but arguably their most iconic and beloved film is the horror movie, Phantasm.

Phantasm is a horror series that features an iconic character called the Tall Man. There have been requests before for the Tall Man to be added to Dead By Daylight, and such requests have been repeated again.

Dead By Daylight YouTuber, Paulie Esther, posted on X, “can we get a Tall Man legendary skin from Phantasm for the Skull Merchant and sentinal spheres for the drones if this Skull Merchant rework goes through? You gotta admit they have the same walk…”.

Surprisingly responding to Esther, Don Coscarelli said, “My DMs are open,” while tagging the official Dead By Daylight account, as well as game director and BeHaviour Interactive’s head of partnerships, Mathieu Cote.

Don Coscarelli approaching BeHaviour Interactive is fantastic, but he’s by no means the only famous person to publicly want a crossover with DBD. The Terrifier creator has previously said they want Art in DBD, Red Barrells have said they’re open to an Outlast Chapter, and Nine Ice Kills have said they’re “totally down” for a collaboration, too.

A Tall Man legendary skin would be fantastic or getting him as a solo paragraph killer would be even better. Sadly, nothing is officially happening right now, and we currently don’t know any crossovers coming to DBD beyond Five Nights At Freddy’s.
