‘Dead by Daylight’ Introduces the Hillbilly
There will be three playable killers in Behaviour Digital’s upcoming slasher game Dead by Daylight, and we’ve now officially met all of them. There was the Trapper and his very obvious talent, followed by the supernaturally gifted Wraith, and now, we’re taking a Wrong Turn into backwoods territory where you should never upset the locals. You shouldn’t do this, but you will, because your mind and body have been forever sullied just by going online.
If horror flicks have taught us anything, it’s that you will inevitably upset a random gas station clerk, who is absolutely going to see the evil that’s inside you for having an email account and send some leather-faced lunatic like this Hillbilly — not in the derogatory sense, that’s his name, I think — to teach you the virtues of living where the Internet dare not go.
Meet The Hillbilly.
I have a handful of Dead by Daylight beta keys that went unclaimed after our giveaway earlier this week. There’s not a lot of time left in the Dead by Daylight beta (it ends June 12), so if you’d still like to spend some time with it hits Steam on June 14, drop me a DM on Twitter. First come, first serve.

‘The Ring’ Actress Daveigh Chase Has Passed Away at 35
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
