Hey everyone, today we’re ranking the killers from least to most scary, based on their in-game gameplay, and how scary it is to face them within a trial, for the player. This idea was suggested by someone in my Discord, so thank you to them. We’re going to judge this on how often they cause jump scares, the anticipation, paranoia, or general fear they cause within the match, and also things such as atmosphere, sounds, and the overall presence felt when being chased by the character. For this we have four tiers. Not scary at all, Occasionally scary, Often scary, and Almost always scary tier. Let’s get into it.
Thank you to Afterlight MC from my Discord for the video idea.

I hope you liked my Wesker impression : )
The TTV I am nodding at on hook is a dbd friend of mine who I happened to run into, you can find their stream here: https://www.twitch.tv/thespookymemes
Can’t believe you put Trickster this high and Oni so low.
We got very different views my friend haha
Pyramid head, pinhead & myers scare the hell out of me.
I would rate Oni and Pyramid Head higher on the list📜
Oni is this terrifying strong Ancient being that slaughters everyone and anything in his path, and he doesn’t show up that often in match’s, and as he gets closer the terror radius becomes more intimidating And unsettling, and once he enters Blood Fury then things start to get way more terrifying, as your options are limited when you’re in his pursue!
Pyramid Head Is a humanoid creature that isn’t human at all, And his sole purpose is to inflict punishment through pain Quite literally, And as he begins chasing you, You are given this unwelcoming feeling as he simply chases you, wanting you dead, And will stop at nothing until he manages kill you since he’s an executioner!
(I would rate these 2 killers higher in my opinion)
Freddy is the least scary to me. He's just… a guy in a sweater. Walking. With scissors.
I actually disagree with Demo not being scary, if you are against one who is good with landing hits off high elevations then it's pretty spooky, it's also a little spooky when he suddenly bursts through the floor in front of you
"Let me see your scary face."
(Michael Myers)
"Alright nevermind, go away, you convinced me ok?"
you forgot freddy
Hag's jumpscares are more annoying than scary because they snap my camera to them when they appear and it fucks up my path in the middle of the chase and give the Hag a free hit.
Nurse should be DC Scary because whenever survivors hear her they just DC
The trickster more scarier than clown and deathslinger? Tf
It’s very, very situational but Demo with red moss can sneak up on you like no one’s business. If you’re on a map with high walls or just indoors and his portal his behind a wall you’ll never know he’s there
Am I the only one that finds Artist visually pretty terrifying? She looks so human yet inhumane at the same time.
Every time you get a Demogorgon, you just call them cute and try to pat them
Love your Wesker line
Do you know who the aster twins are?
Never faced a silent stealth billy have you?
I don't play survivor much but back in 2016 everyone used to be scared of the killers, but now once you tell yourself that it's just another player the fear's just completely gone, imo Doctor is the one who still holds it up because his laugh and fake Doctors always manage to get a good scare from me lol
Edit: I think Ghostie is well deserved to be called scary because i always get a mini-heart attack when someone gets exposed knowing that when i'm working on a gen he could be anywhere now stalking me and expose me, i never managed to escape from a Ghostface tbh
Dude the clown makes me poop myself
Honestly i love knights guards, they all have awesome sounds.
The jailer (guy with the burning iron thing) just laughs like an absolute maniac, the craziest laugh in the game.
The big one that chases you for longer just makes hilarious grunts and yells.
The assassin is the only boring one tbh
