and Virginia 
.

Strategy[]
Bad Blood provides a heavy debuff to Family members with high damage as other Victims will see where they are for up to 2 minutes on top of reducing their damage.
The catch is that the user of this perk has to be killed in order for it to activate. This significantly reduces the appeal of the perk regardless of its upsides. It could be used in more aggressive and risky play styles that involves direct confrontation with The Family.
Luckily, Leland and Ana's abilities fall in line with those play styles as they are often on the offensive. If you lose all hope and cannot escape, it is best to let a high damage Family member, especially Leatherface, kill you to gain the most value out of the perk.
However, it could be wise to let Sissy kill you instead if she is present. Knowing her location could help the Victims know if she has poisoned an object or used Bane at a vital choke point.
