Dead by Daylight: Halloween, featuring Michael Myers, Laurie Strode, and Haddonfield, is leaving The Fog.
Halloween came to Dead by Daylight in October 2016, marking the first legendary horror film to be added to the game as a license. Its arrival was a historic turning point, the first stone in an avalanche of cinematic horror icons.
Yet even the most incredible Halloween night must come to an end. Dead by Daylight is a live service game, and there’s always the possibility that unexpected changes may occur. On January 19th, 2026, 11 AM ET, The Halloween Chapter and all associated content will no longer be available to unlock in Dead by Daylight.
For those who already own The Shape, Laurie Strode, and/or any of their Cosmetics, your content will remain accessible to you. If you’re interested in unlocking any Halloween characters or Cosmetics, we’ll be holding a Last Chance 50% off sale until it departs The Fog for good.
If you’re reading this and do not own the characters, please note that The Shape and Laurie Strode’s Perks will undergo name changes. They will be added to the General Perk pool and available in the Bloodweb for everyone. Associated Charms and Achievements will be updated to reflect these changes.
The Shape’s Perks
- Save The Best For Last -> Keep Them Waiting
- Play With Your Food -> See How They Run
- Dying Light -> Cull The Weak
Laurie Strode’s Perks
- Sole Survivor -> Down To The Last
- Object of Obsession -> Bound by Obsession
- Decisive Strike – Will To Live
If you already own the characters, Perk names and descriptions will remain unchanged, as well the Perk-related Charms.
Unfortunately, the Haddonfield Map will also be removed from the Map pool, and the associated Strode Realty Key will be retired and removed from the Bloodweb.

Michael may have been a man of few words, but the jump scares he gave us speak for themselves.
See you in The Fog, The Dead by Daylight team
