Samination's Dead by Daylight parodies are animated skits that feature the Cast Herd of Survivors and Killers in goofy situations involving the game.
- Adaptational Villainy: Nea here isn't only The Mole for the killers, she's apparently the secret identity of The Entity itself.
- Bad Guy Bar: Starting with "10," the Hookers all have their regular meetings at the Dead Dawg Saloon.
- Butt-Monkey: Trapper gets no respect from both the Survivors and his fellow Killers, even when he's putting Dwight, the Survivor Butt-Monkey on the hook.
- Frank was shunned by the Hookers when he first appeared no thanks to the Leigon's then underpowered ability, getting "NO" drawn on his mask by Wraith and pretty much getting the Unperson treatment. Thankfully, Legion was reworked to actually be more reliable, and thus removed Frank's butt-monkey status.
- The Cameo: Jason Voorhees appears in "2" at the Cool Killers Club and says it's a good name, but since he's not part of the club, as well as Dead by Daylight, he has to be taken away. Even Wraith is confused, asking when he started talking.
- Buttloads of people show up for the Hookers meeting in "8", consisting of but not limited to Chucky, Pinheadnote , Pepsiman, a Creeper, a Xenomorph and several others. They don't leave until Nea makes Oni clear them out in "9".
- Couch Gag: Starting from "2," there's always a different loading screen "tip" between each skit.
- Ear Ache: In "1," Hillbilly chainsaws Dwight while Dwight's working on the generator, slicing off his ear."Ow, my ears!"
- Expressive Mask:
- Trapper's mask is able to move when he speaks and is also quite expressive. It's even lampshaded in his Origin Story in "9."
- The Legion are only shown wearing their masks, though since Frank is their usual representative, his mask is the most expressive.
- Gratuitous Japanese: In "9," Oni shouts out "ORA ORA ORA!" when Nea clears out the basement. He even grumbles "Yare yare daze." when Wraith tells him he's Rank S for "Stay over there away from me."
- Genre Savvy: The Dredge's debut appearance has him happily geek out about the gags and content the parodies have.
- Informed Deformity: Samination treats Nea like she's the ugliest creature in the world, even to the point of making her not only a mole for the Killers, but the Entity itself.
- Major Injury Underreaction: In "1," Jake gets knocked downed by Wraith and then hooked, but is positive about getting some exercise in.Explanation
- Oh, No... Not Again!: "5" has Trapper shout "Not again!" after stepping into one of his own bear traps.
- Running Gag:
- A "Loading Screen" tip asks if the viewers remember certain asymmetrical multiplayer horror games were going to kill Dead by Daylight. Some examples involve Friday the 13th: The Game and Last Year.
- Any time Quentin is one of the Survivors, the others react in horror like he's the Killer until he says it's him. This is likely because being chased in the Dream World by Freddy Krueger keeps him from being able to sleep soundly.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In "16," following Real Life Writes the Plot, Demogorgon leaves the Hookers after Behavior's licensing deal with Stranger Things ended.
- Shooting Gallery: "2" has Huntress throw her hatchets at the Survivors at the exit gate like a shooting gallery until she runs out of hatchets. When she goes to get more from a locker, she ends up finding Dwight.
- Theme Tune: In "4," the Hookers discuss wanting to have their own unique theme songs, with some already having their own (Freddy and Pig). Wraith tells them it would be too expensive to give each Killer unique theme songs, and they already pay John Carpenter to follow the Shape everywhere. It's shown by having John playing "The Shape Stalks" behind him.
- Throw the Dog a Bone: The resident Butt-Monkey of the killers, Trapper, is given his in "6" thanks to Endgame Collapse.
- Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: In "15," Dwight and Cheryl stumble upon the Lament Configuration and summon Pinhead. As he prepares to give them pain, he experiences different kinds of pain: being blinded by flashlights, stunned by pallets, stunned by Cheryl using Head-Onnote , and Flashbangednote . Pinhead may get off on giving and receiving pain, but even he has limits and teleports out. He gets brought back when Dwight opens the Box.
- The Unreveal: In "The Legion: Origins," Frank reveals his face to Jeff during the credits. Jeff says he should keep the mask on.
- Unfortunate Name: The Killers collectively name themselves the Hookers, since Cool Killers Club wasn't good enough, and the Survivors tampered with the other names.Trapper: I-it sounded better in my head.
- The Voiceless: While some Killers don't speak through choice (the Shape for example), the Artist is only able to make cawing noises due to her tongue having been cut out before she was made a Killer.
- Verbal Tic: The Doctor tends to giggle in a Hibbert like way.
- Welcome to Corneria: Nearly everytime Ash talks, it's one of his selection lines from the game.
- You No Take Candle: How the Huntress speaks.
