Hey everyone, today I’m going to be briefly summarising every single killer backstory, lore and tome lore, to hopefully help anyone out there who doesn’t really want to read the lore but does want to know about the core story beats and general narratives of their backstories.

The Resident Evil x Dead by Daylight chapter is out and the new killer is Nemesis and survivors, Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine. The Racoon City Police Department is the new map!

  1. Someone mentioned to me that they'd like a summary of the backstories as I tend to do a lot of lore videos but don't directly dive into the whole story too much. So, here's a quick summary for all killers. Let me know if you'd like a survivor one too.

  2. However leatherface is manupilated by his family to do what he does , he doesn't hate what he does. He knows what he has to do and kills who enters his territory and tries to expose his family's secrets. What I mean is , if he doesnt do what he does his world would collapse. And it happens when sally escapes and bubba has a wild tantrum swinging his chainsaw. We can see that leatherface enjoys from sally smithson's pain in the dinner scene from texas chainsaw massacre.

  3. Heck yeah upload a survivor backstory video. As stated in an earlier video your channel brought back a new found respect for the game. I always look forward to your videos

  4. Out of all the original killer backstories, huntress’ is the most flawed in my opinion. She survived on her own since she was a child but couldn’t figure out other girls need to eat too?

  5. Nurse’s bio and tome lore don’t contradict or retcon each other. Nurse going all prejudiced eugenic nazi IS her snap. She would never have adopted such a mindset unless she was at a super weak point after years of seeing patients never improve, her suffering becoming their fault. It’s iconic and it fits her perfectly. You really think her being a kind, logical person as a killer is scary? Alright lmao 🤣🤣🤣

  6. Since Pyramid Head makes people repent for there sins, I guess his whole purpose in the entity's realm is to make Nea's and Feng's with bright cosmetics, bloody Cheryls bloody Quentins bloody Nancys bloody Leons bloody Jills bloody Tapps bloody Adams and bloody Lauries, scoops ahoy Steves wearing goggles, Jeffs with either face paint or longer hair with a face mask, Dwights with either an elf outfit or a pizza delivery outfit, Jakes with a blight outfit, Megs with literally any cosmetic, Janes with also literally any cosmetic, Kates with yet again literally any cosmetic, Yuis with also yet again literally any cosmetic, Zarinas for the last time literally any cosmetic, Davids with no shirt and a fancy mustache, Yun-Jins with the bright blue long hair cosmetic, Fancy looking Elodies, a fancy looking Felix, Bills with a christmas sweater, and Aces with a pilot cosmetic repent for making me uninstall the game 3 times in one week right after I reached rank 4. And I didn't include P3 Claudettes because they aren't really an issue anymore.

  7. They need to do a redo on some of these origin stories, especially the older ones. They just don't make much sense to the actual killer nor are they scary

  8. I got slightly spooked while listening to the section about hag I had three fries or chips whatever you call them on my plate and they were in the shape of a triangle

  9. Hey I'm Azhy quick killer tip so you can get better at slinger. When you catch someone reel in and also move backwards because it makes it so they come to you quickly so they can hide behind something and escape the hook.
