Vecna enters The Fog as Stranger Things makes its chilling return

Nightmares from Hawkins cross dimensions once again. Dead by Daylight officially brings Stranger Things back with a brand-new chapter, introducing Vecna as a Killer and welcoming Dustin and Eleven as new Survivors in one of the most anticipated crossovers yet.

Following the original 2019 chapter — which featured The Demogorgon, Steve Harrington, and Nancy Wheeler — the Stranger Things story continued to evolve, ultimately revealing its most dangerous threat. Henry Creel, also known as 001 or Vecna, stands as a corrupting force determined to spread the influence of the Upside Down and reshape humanity to his will. In Dead by Daylight, he takes the title The First, becoming the dark core of this new chapter.

Hawkins, however, refuses to fall quietly. Dustin’s quick thinking and resolve, combined with Eleven’s overwhelming psychic power, have proven that courage and heart can stand against even world-ending evil. Their arrival brings that same balance of fear and defiance into The Fog, where every escape attempt is a battle of will.

As Stranger Things reaches the end of its journey, Dead by Daylight opens a new and ominous chapter, placing Vecna at its center. Are you ready to survive when Hawkins’ greatest threat begins hunting within The Fog? More information here.
