About

Spark of Madness is a Chapter for Dead by Daylight. It holds the darkest and most experimental form of treatment - where health is not the goal, just madness. The Doctor will see you now, whether you want to or not. The only glimpse of hope is a young girl, one who never gives up and always finds a way. The Spark of Madness Chapter includes a new Killer, a Survivor and a Map.

Treatment in progress... Information is power. Everything is allowed. Intelligence is a weapon that must be thwarted. This doctor will never stop, treatments will never be too experimental. A young girl who is in it to win, no matter what the game or the rules. A research institution that slowly turns into a prison.
