Plot (Story)
Logos start to play as we hear some eerie music and peoples screams in the background. Then we get a close up on a female’s face. She looked like she had seen some shit. Half of her face was covered in her blood and I don’t think it's hers. Anyways, she was running. Running for her life! She ran and ran like she was being chased by someone or something but when she looked behind herself while running, she saw nothing chased her and she hit a tree that was in front of her. [Female 1] “Ouch.” She said while rubbing her head with her eyes closed for a second. She got up and without looking down, she stepped on a bear trap, screaming in horror and pain that could be heard from miles and miles away. Her leg was bleeding out so much, she could just faint! But by the time she got her foot out of the bear trap, The Trapper swung his weapon high and sliced the female in half, blood hitting everywhere as she died on the spot. The Trapper picks up the body and puts it on a hook, letting The Entity in the skies as he looks up. (Title card appears) Dead By Daylight! “2 Years Later” appears on the screen as we get a view of a small town called Hood River, Oregon. I was in the woods of this small town, just reading alone as normal until [Claudette] “Hey Dwight.” [Me] “Claudette? How did you find me?” She sat down next to me. [Claudette] “I tracked you down.” [Me] “You tracked me down?” [Claudette] “No silly! That was a joke!” [Me] “Oh. Haha. Very funny.” [Claudette] “It is.” We shared a laugh together before I bought up the news. [Me] “Have you heard they stop the police investigation on...Jessica?” [Claudette] “Yeah...It sucks. They did the same to Evan MacMillan.” [Me] “Who?” [Claudette] “I don’t know. He was a friend of my mom or dad I think? I don’t know. They only mention him today.” [Me] “Ah. I see.” [Claudette] “Yeah…” [Me] “How about we do something together instead of reading this book?” I threw the book away. We got up and walked towards the town to have a Walk & Talk. [Claudette] “Like what?” [Me] “I don’t know. I was hoping you would come up with something.” [Claudette] “Wha- But you just said-” [Me] “I said that to get you off your butt. Haha.” [Claudette] “How about my place?” [Me] “Sure. Sounds like a date.” (Claudette giggles) A few hours later, it was night time and someone was having some kind of killer party. I mean, music blaring and lights dancing out of the house. I’m surprised the police haven't shut this down yet! Man! Anyways, two people walk out of the house, power drunk and into the woods. A female named Meg Thomas and a man named David King. They were like friends or drunken friends for that matter who were walking into the woods together. However, someone was watching them, breathing heavily like he was Michael Myers. Then he made his move and it was The Trapper!

The Trapper makes his move, swinging his Cleaver high and stabs David King in the shoulder! David screamed as Meg screamed in horror also and just made a break for it until she fell, thanks to a bear trap but it wasn’t ready to catch her leg. Then she got a plan. She opens the bear trap while David is screaming in the background. She opens it and it's ready. She jumps over it and when The Trapper was going in for another slash, Meg tried to knock him to the ground but he didn’t move. Shoot! The Trapper chases Nea but when she jumps over the bear trap she set, The Trapper gets caught in his own bear trap! Just like the game! The Trapper groans a little as David behind gets away and he sets himself free to continue the chase as Meg. When Meg got close enough to the house, she turned around and noticed that The Trapper was gone. [Meg] “What-” She was panting like she was out of breath as she checked her leg and noticed a small cut that was bleeding slowly. [Jake] “Hey Meg. You ok?” [Meg] “Huh? Yeah. I’m ok Jake. Thanks.” [Jake] “No problem.” She looked behind herself once more back into the dark woods and wondered where David King went. She was supposed to walk him home today. I guess he’s ok. For now. Back with Me and Claudette, we were at her place, which is not far. Like, two houses down from where the party was going on from. We were sharing jokes and stuff like that until the lights cut out. [Me] “Umm-” [Claudette] “I’ll go check it out.” [Me] “*Sighs* Thank you.” [Claudette] “Big baby.” She whispers under her breath. She went outside of her house to check why the lights turned off. She notices a slash like someone slash the power box. It was damaged. She can’t fix this. Or can she? She opens it and grabs some wires to touch each other to try and fix it. They spark everytime they touch but it wasn’t working. She couldn’t get the power back on! However, she heard breathing behind her. She whimpers as she turns around and notices The Trapper standing there!

Back with me, I was still in her room, whimpering until something in her desk was glowing. I open it up and notice this weird box like it was from the Hellraiser movies. I picked it up and it was glowing on all sides of this weird box looking thing. [Me] “What is this thing?” Then when I touched one of the buttons or symbols that was glowing, it fell out of my hand and started to shake as spider like legs burst out of the box and out of the house, It was The Entity! It roared as two of the spider legs stabbed Claudette to lift her up and safely lifted The Trapper up to and they got sucked into the box, never to be seen again. I was freaking out until one of the legs came after me next! I was trying to crawl away from it but It got me and dragged me into the box with the others as well. However, it wasn’t over yet. Two more burst out and without leaving The Box, they manage to grab two more unlucky members. It grabs Meg Thomas and Jake Park! [Jake] “What the?! What’s going on here?!” [Meg] “Let me go!” They got sucked in The Box and The Box stopped glowing, retreating The Entity’s legs back in The Box and giving us a view of where we are now. Meanwhile at The MacMillan Estate, Me and Meg Thomas were near each other, laying in the ground. We woke up, rubbing our heads. [Meg] “Oof. Ow. That must have-” [Me] “Hurt.” I finished her sentence off. Maybe she didn’t see me yet. [Meg] “Who are you?!” [Me] “Me?! I should be asking the same thing to you missy! Where’s Claudette?” [Meg] “Wait...Claudette? You know Claudette?” [Me] “Yeah. Is that a problem?” [Meg] “I don’t think so? I’m Meg. I’m like her...best friend almost.” [Me] “Really? Ah, I see. I’m Dwight.” We shook hands for a second. [Meg] “Wait? You’re Dwight?” [Me] “Yeah?” [Meg] “Wow. I mean, when I’m hanging out with Claudette, she would non stop talk about you! I mean, it’s crazy!” I blushed for a little bit. [Me] “Really?” [Meg] “Yeah!” She took a step back and hit a generator with a note on it. Meg grabs the note and we look at it together. [Me and Meg] “Fix 5. Once done, free at last.” [Me] “So we have to fix 5 of these...generators?!” [Meg] “I guess so. Know how to fix one?” We bend down to see what’s wrong with the generator in front of us. I was in front and Meg was on the side as we were putting our hands in the generator and trying to fix it. Then after a few more minutes, it turned on and it was fixed! [Meg] “Way to go!” We high five each other. Then we heard bushes rush behind us. [Me] “We need to find Claudette.” [Meg] “And Jake too.” [Me] “Someone else was dragged into this?” Meanwhile with Claudette and Jake, they woke up and noticed each other as they screamed. [Jake] “Who are you?!” [Claudette] “Wait...Isn’t this?” [Jake] “Where are we?” [Claudette] “The MacMillan Estate.” We get a view of a huge building in the middle and in front of Jake and Claudette as they slowly walk in and investigate the place. However, Jake stops Claudette behind him and they almost step in a bear trap. However, they notice a generator in front of them with the same note that We found, saying the same thing. They nodded to each other as they began to work on the generator.

Back with me, Me and Meg were trying to fix our...third generator together until she messed something up. [Meg] “Shoot!” [Me] “Crap!” [Meg] “Sorry!” [Me] “It’s fine.” (Twig snapping) [Meg] “Are we alone?” [Me] “Uhhhhhhh….I think so?” We looked around the minute that we finished our generator and there was nobody there yet. Until I bump into something. I assume it was a tree until I look back and notice The Trapper! I scream in horror as Meg screams my name. She wanted to help. She just doesn’t know how. The Trapper grabs my neck and held me high as he slowly cuts my shirt. I kicked his face to force him to let go of me as I ran. [Meg] “Wait for me-!” The Trapper grabbed Meg’s neck and he held her high as The Trapper was choking Meg. [Meg] “Why-*Coughs*-Are you doing-*Coughs*-this?!” The Trapper didn’t respond back but with heavy breathing like he was Michael Myers. He lifts his weapon high and bonk Meg on the head, knocking her out. Meanwhile with Claudette and Jake, they were walking up to their last generator until they heard Meg’s screams. Claudette was about to save her until Jake grabbed her arm and shaked his head no. They walked to the last generator and started to fix it as Claudette was getting a chilling feeling that someone was here. She backs up as she bumps into something and turns around. It was The Trapper!

The Trapper grabs Claudette as she screams and the minute Jake was done with the last generator. He looks up and notices that The Trapper put Claudette on a hook that was stabbing her shoulder! He freaked out as The Trapper slowly walked to him and was about to slash him. Until someone threw a rock at him. [Me] “Hey!...Ummmm...Killer dude! After me! Oh shit.” My plan worked a little too well as The Trapper pulled his attention towards me and slowly chased after me. Jake frees Claudette and they race over to where they have to pull the lever for the exit! Jake begins to pull it down and waits for the three red lights to lit up. After the gates open, they were free until [Claudette] “Wait!” [Jake] “What is it?! We need to escape!” [Claudette] “I’m not leaving Dwight!” [Jake] “Fine!” However, as I was racing towards the exit’s gates as Claudette and Jake cheered for me, I noticed Meg on a hook, holding off The Entity from trying to kill her. I have to make a choice here. Save Meg or Escape without her. [Me] “Ugh! Why am I so stupid?” I turned towards Meg and freed her as The Trapper slash me and I was down. [Meg, Claudette, and Jake] “No!” Meg tried to pick me up as The Trapper swung at Claudette, Meg, and Jake to try and kill them. [Claudette] “Stop!” She shouted, getting all of our attention. [Claudette] “Are you...Evan MacMillan? Is it really you?” (The Trapper heavy breathing) She walked up to The Trapper and she stared him in the eyes. Then as Meg and Jake help me up, The Trapper just stabs Claudette in the stomach! We all gasped as The Trapper took his weapon out and Claudette fell on the floor, slowly dying. [Me] “No!” I got up and tried to tackle The Trapper but it didn’t work. However, as Jake and Meg watched us fight, Jake found a somewhat working flashlight on the ground, picked it up, and shined it in The Trapper’s eyes! Meg was dragging Claudette’s body through the exit and they escaped. [Jake] “Dwight! I have an idea but I need you to trust me!” [Me] “Sure random dude? What?” [Jake] “Run with me!” [Me] “What?” Jake sighed, pulled me, and we ran to the main building as The Trapper was following us. However, when we got in the building, The Trapper swung at us but missed as he hit a wooden pillar and took out his weapon to continue the chase. Time was running short and we noticed the ground glowing. However, when we ran outside towards the gates, I stopped to turn around and noticed The Trapper staring at us. [Me] “This ends here. Now!” Jake pressed a button and the main building exploded! Getting The Trapper’s attention and the building fell on him, killing him off. We cheered as we ran towards the gate, escaping as a bright light shone over our eyes. Meanwhile in Claudette’s house, we all landed in her room, all healed from our wounds. [Me] “Hey. We’re...ok!” [Claudette] “I’m...not dead?” We cheered once more and hugged each other, dancing around The Box. “The Next Day” the words said on the black screen and we get a view of Me and Claudette talking and walking together until Jake and Meg later on join us. We all looked up in the skies and wondered what the future would hold next. The End. End Credit Scene 1: However, meanwhile in a coal mine, miners were working their butts off until one brought a cart outside and noticed something inside the coal. Something...white. He wipes the coal dust and coal off and it was The Trapper’s mask! However, he heard bushes rush behind him and turn around to notice a shady figure with a sharp weapon holding it high and slashing him, getting blood on the mask. The End?

Trivia

 * The story is based off the video game
 * In one scene, Meg Thomas replaced Nea Karlsson when we first see her with David King.
 * David King will return in the Dead By Daylight: Horror Series.
 * It's possible that The Trapper could have survive. In the original ending, The Trapper would have been disaggregated by The Entity but it wouldn't make sense since The Entity was on the Killer's side.
 * The Box is a reference to Lament Configuration from the Hellraiser franchise. Since they share somewhat the same abilities and tools. The Box is able to summon The Entity to start the games as the Lament Configuration summons the Cenobites to bring pleasures or pain to the user.
