Every December, the gloomy depths of the fog become a little more festive. Snow falls, lights are strung up and cruel ornaments adorn the trial area. That can only mean one thing: the Bone Chill event has returned Dead in daylightwhich brings with it a host of seasonal items, challenges and rewards.

From ice-covered guns to warm sweaters, there are party favors for everyone. Grab some snow skulls, jump into a blood splattered snowman and detonate some winter party starters as you navigate the 2024 Bone Chill Event Tome and collect all available rewards.

How to get frosty trinkets

To unlock all limited time goodies from this year's event (which runs from December 12 to January 7), you need to collect some Frosty Trinkets – Bone Chill Event Currency. You will receive 100 Frosty Trinkets from logging in at any time during the event, 50 trinkets per completed Bone Chill Challenge and 250 trinkets per completed level of the Bone Chill Event Tome.

All in all, there are 2950 Frost Tokens to buy, and you only need 2400 to collect everything, leaving you with 550 left over.

Any unused Frosty Trinkets left over after the Bone Chill wears off will turn into Bloodpoints – 125 per Frosty Trinket, to be exact.

How to use snowmen

The most notable features of Bone Chill Event Mode are Snowmen and piles of snow skulls can be found scattered across the map. The snowmen are mostly harmless – they may move around sometimes, but they won't hurt you. In fact, snowmen can be very useful.

Both killers and survivors can jump into snowmen, gives Killers the undetectable status effect and gives survivors a way to hide under the killer's nose. Think about it Assassins can use their basic attack to destroy snowmen, potentially harming any Survivor hiding within.

That's all assuming you're not dealing with a Snowman Decoy: these malevolent creatures look just like regular snowmen and will try to scare you screams and explodes when a survivor or killer gets near them. This sends a message to all players on the map, so be careful when approaching a snowman you haven't seen before. If you keep an eye on them, Snowman Decoys will sometimes twitch and reveal their mouths while standing still, so you can play around them.

Snow skulls

But if you see a suspicious snowman, how do you deal with it without giving away your position? That's where Snow Skulls come in – interacting with a Snow Skull Pile gives you seven Snow Skulls which you can throw at your opponents, your teammates and any snowmen you see.

Snowmen hit by a snow skull will be destroyed, although both regular Snowmen and Snowman Decoys will respawn over time.

If you feel like playing some tricks yourself, you can interact with a Snow Skull Pile while you have all seven Snow Skulls to exchange them for an Instant Snowman. You can put on or take off the Instant Snowman with the touch of a button, so you can play mind games with your opponent, and you can choose to leave the snowman behind, intentionally created a Snowman Decoy.

As a bonus, if you create a Snowman Decoy as a survivor, your teammates can see its aura.

Unique Bloodweb items

The entity has decided to give everyone in the mist some holiday gifts, showing that even multidimensional horrors can feel the holiday spirit. Survivors and Slayers alike can find a new offering, Mistle Toes, giving you extra blood points for Bone Chill Event actions. But that's not all: you start the trial with six snow skulls, and an extra chest will spawn somewhere on the map.

Speaking of chests, some chests in all trials during Bone Chill will become winter chests. Winter chests will yield rarer items than usual, with a chance to include a winter party starter – a Survivor exclusive item that works identically to the Survivor Perk Flashbang. If you can't find any winter chests to loot, don't worry – while Bone Chill lasts, you can also find Winter Party starters in Bloodweb for all survivors.
