Insidious is a Killer Perk. Template:Perk table

Trivia

  • Insidious hides the Stain, the red cone of light the Killers emit that the Survivors are normally able to see.
  • Insidious does not hide the Killer's Character model in any way. The stealth part about the description comes from the fact of Survivors having a hard time locating the Killer without the Terror Radius.
    • This part is badly translated into many languages, sometimes even claiming that the Killer will turn invisible, which is a source of great confusion.
  • Insidious is not cancelled by moving your mouse around and thus turning the Character model.
  • When Insidious is active, the Killer's vision is obscured by the same "Black Fog" that The Template:IconLink gets when invisible. This lasts until cancelling Insidious.
    • This "Black Fog" fades out over about 1.5-2 seconds after cancelling Insidious.
    • The Terror Radius probably turns back on over these 1.5-2 seconds in the same way that The Wraith's does while de-cloaking.
  • The Killers still make breathing noises while under the effects of Insidious, which is a way for an attentive Survivor to notice their presence.
  • Insidious won't work on the The Template:IconLink, as her humming is independent of her Terror Radius. Removing the Terror Radius will not stop her humming, and her humming will actually get louder and receive an echo effect.
