5. Ghostface - Dead By Daylight

So at this point in time, Dead by Daylight is basically a holiday getaway for horror icons, a persistently dark and gloomy world in which killers of all forms gather together to forever murder a group of young and terrified survivors. It's what I imagine a team-building day would entail at Serial Killer LTD.

The huge roster of this game truly is something to be commended as all the fan favorites are here, although I personally can't get a little annoyed that this is the first we've seen from Pyramid Head in absolutely years. What I'm here to talk about is the fact that GhostFace from The Scream franchise is a playable villain and boy howdy have they nailed his abilities.

Stalking victims with his tactical knife weapon at the ready, GhostFace can choose one surivor to become "obsessed" with, this means that each time you hook your target your terror radius is reduced by 4 meters per go. This terror radius is what alerts the other survivors to your presence so is essential to keep as low as possible. With this and his ability to stalk huge distances, GhostFace is a truly terrifying presence to say the least.
