Returning for another round, Haunted by Daylight is set to bring new limited time content to Dead by Daylight. This year you get a chance to explore Void Zones in Event Tome 7. These zones are areas where previous Killers and Survivors have been discarded and are now called Haunts. Release them need from the Void to provide you with buffs. In order to get into the Void yourself, you’ll need to collect Void Energy and place it into Unstable Rifts, opening a portal you can traverse.
