Jingling Bell is an A-Tier Accessory for the Gamekeeper, Bane Perez. It was introduced in the Season 8 Rank Treasure. It is currently purchasable in the Illusion Hall.

Appearance

Physical

The accessory appears as a bronze bell made up by metal bars, bolted as to create a cage-like appearance, with a rusty and bloodied hook with a small bandage at its top serving as a headstock, a bronze clapper, and a red and green ribbon tied to its crown.

A yellow eyeball with green eyelids and a thin black pupil sticks out on the front of the ribbon, while greenish tentacles twist outward from the bell's holes. A dark brown liquid is smeared on the bell's clapper and sound bow.

Special Effects

Walking Animation

Once equipped, the eyeball emits a faint yellow glow, and the accessory as a whole is occasionally covered in a brownish aura.

Carry Animation

Bane will also pick up and carry incapacitated survivors over his left shoulder, holding them with his arm, rather than tie them to balloons.

Design Notes

Jingling Bell is shaped like a deer bell tied with a colorful bow, but the broken bell body and the swaying bright red liquid tell a completely different story.

Trivia

• Jingling Bell's carrying animation actually restores Bane's previous carrying animation, dating back to the game's early versions. The same animation was also shared by Hell Ember and Smiley Face, and was replaced in an attempt to make the game less intimidating.
  • However, the chairing animation had to be modified due to the survivor not being hanged on a noose.
  • The same animation is also restored by Joker's Hypnotic Device.
  • Like the aforementioned accessory, it accidentally restores pre-fifth beta test weapon sounds when carrying a survivor, specifically his spiked blade swing sounds possibly due to an oversight in the coding.
