“Hellraiser's iconic antagonist Pinhead will be following in the bloody footsteps of Halloween's Michael Myers, Nightmare on Elm Street's Freddy Krueger, Texas Chainsaw Massacre's Leatherface.”

About This Content




Hellraiser is a new Chapter in Dead by Daylight. It includes a new Killer, Pinhead. Demon to some, angel to others, Pinhead seeks to unleash the limitless thrill of pleasure and pain upon any who cross his path. Purchasing the add-on will unlock the new Killer and an exclusive universal charm.


PINHEAD

Pinhead is an explorer in the further regions of experience, indulging in the limitless thrill of pleasure and pain. When the puzzle box known as the Lament Configuration—a key to another dimension—was found in The Entity’s realm, it was only a matter of time before it fell into curious hands. Once opened, he arrived. What came next was sweet suffering that spilled over the realm.
Pinhead’s Power: Summons of Pain
An extradimensional gateway that leads to pleasure and pain so great it will tear your soul apart.

Press the Power Button to create a gateway and release the button to open it. Once opened, tap the Ability Button to summon forth a possessed chain under your control. Direct the chain into a Survivor to bind them.

A Survivor bound to a chain is unable to sprint. Their movement speed will decrease further as they’re hit with a second and third chain. Survivors can perform the Break Free action to escape.

LAMENT CONFIGURATION
If left alone, the Lament Configuration puzzle box initiates a Chain Hunt by summoning chains to pursue Survivors.

A Survivor carrying the Lament Configuration is afflicted with the Oblivious status effect and chains will occasionally be summoned to attack them. The Survivor must solve the Lament Configuration to end the Chain Hunt and remove the puzzle box from their possession. While doing this, Pinhead will see their location and be able to teleport to it.

When Pinhead picks up the Lament Configuration, a Chain Hunt is activated and all Survivors are instantly bound by chains, causing them to scream and reveal their locations.

The Lament Configuration will spawn in a new location after Pinhead or a Survivor has used it.




Pinhead comes with 3 new perks.

Deadlock

After a generator is repaired, The Entity blocks the generator with the most progress for a period of time. You see its aura in white for the duration.

Hex: Plaything

Hooking a Survivor for the first time activates Hex: Plaything on a random dull totem, cursing them with Oblivious until the totem is cleansed. The cursed Survivor can see the totem’s aura when near and must personally cleanse it to recover.

Scourge Hook: Gift of Pain

Begin each trial with up to four Scourge Hooks. When unhooked from a Scourge Hook, Survivors suffer Hemorrhage and Mangled until healed. Once healed they suffer a speed penalty to healing, repairing, and opening actions until injured again.


THE LAMENT CONFIGURATION CHARM

The Hellraiser chapter includes an exclusive universal Charm: Lament Configuration, only available as part of the DLC. Please note that this item cannot be purchased separately.

One of horror’s most twisted killers has entered the Fog... and he brought his own hooks.
