Chucky is the killer doll from the Child's Play films, and he joined Dead by Daylight as a playable killer, where chase music and stings signal that he is hunting a survivor. Clips from his chases spread among horror game players because the character is instantly recognisable, even in a fraction of a second, and the sound carries both menace and dark humour. Editors now reuse it beyond gameplay, using it to mark pursuits, ambushes and sudden turns in memes and short videos, which keeps it familiar to audiences who may never have played the game themselves.
