The game takes place across fifteen maps which are based on the places the killers became murderers: The MacMillan Estate (Trapper), Crotus Prenn Asylum (Nurse, Clown), Autohaven Wreckers (Wraith), Coldwind Farm (Hillbilly), Haddonfield (Shape), Backwater Swamp (Hag), Léry's Memorial Institute (Doctor), the Red Forest (Huntress, Plague), Springwood (Nightmare), Gideon Meat Plant (Pig), Yamaoka Estate (Spirit, Oni), Ormond (Legion), Hawkins National Laboratory (Demogorgon), Grave of Glenvale (Deathslinger), Midwich Elementary School (Executioner), and Raccoon City (Nemesis). The Cannibal, the Ghost Face, the Blight, the Twins, the Trickster, and the Cenobite did not receive maps. Over time, the evilness of the killer's actions accumulated there until it attracted the attention of the Entity, an unknown force of darkness from a place with no name.
