Depends. What's your reason for wanting them?
For the perks?
Because you like them?
Because they look fun?
etc.

Ok, so then what sort of gameplay and perk builds are you looking for?
More aggressive or defensive?

More aggressive I'd say, I like fast paced runs and being able to put decent pressure on the survivors

avoid freddy + all of them has pretty much mediocre perks other than demogorgons surge and pinheads deadlock i'd go for funnier character than better perks there

I see. Well then, here's my approach:

Pyramidhead - A favorite of mine. Strong in a chase, dangerous near pallets and vaults, but his perks are more defensive relying on stealth and sabotage tactics.

Cenobite - higher learning curve, but a good Cenobite player is feared across the game due to being able to do so much with his powers. His perks specialize in delays which can be useful both ways.

Nightmare - He's a favorite of mine, but he's notorious for being considered boring to face. Playing AS him? He's fun, but he could be better. His perks are handy though.

Demogorgon - If you want to play a loud, savage, brutal monster who roars loudly anytime he strikes and can smash through pallets with ease... Here you go! Perks? Handy as killer, but notoriously annoying to face as survivor, meaning his reputation means people will know what to expect when facing him, like how everyone assumes a Legion is running Discordance at all times. Sometimes though... You just got to let it roar.

Wesker - One of the most popular killers and definitely an aggressive choice. That said, you'll likely face Wesker as often as you play him, so keep that in mind. His perks are geared toward helping in chases and endgame destruction.

Chucky - If you want a fun little doll of chaos who curses at survivors and can pull off some excellent trick plays, this guy is second to none. His perks are fine and one of them goes excellently with Spirit's perk Rancor which makes the endgame ALWAYS a fun time.

most fun is suggestive but here my take:

pyramid head a blase too get gud on. tho the add-on are hell'a bad

chucky unique, simple and fun. the 3rd person camera is way more busted then you think.
and he insult the survivor's for you. what not too love.

demogorgon is great tho the survivor can greatly suck the fun out of him.

cenobite is great if you can tolerate or ignore his drip and the fact his "bust" in pleasure when getting stuns. cus i cant.

my boy Freddy is the 2ed worst killer in the game. but puling a win somehow on him fell great. it all so help seeing how deprave the survivors are of moral's and there lake of skill.
like legit, winning on him is giving a free ticket of "you suck" and "skill issue" too the survivor without saying nothing in chat.

i suck too much as Wesker. i cant rate him. but i'm 100% sure his on par'd whit pyramid head.

perk wise:
cenobite, chucky and demogorgon have great perks.
the rest are more fun them meta. particularly Freddy.

il' say if you have too pick only one whit what you say'd.
Wesker or pyramid head may be a great pick for you.

Since characters are on sale right now (and for some hours left) I think getting a new killer is a good idea. Before buying someone I would suggest reading some info about their abilities/ perks in the game and watching some videos to see the gameplay.

In my opinion the Cenobite is the best option even if his perks aren't really strong (just like the other killers you listed). With Cenobite you can summon chains and actually control where they go in order to make survivors move slower. First it won't be really easy to successfully hit them with chains, but you can learn with time.

Also survivors have to solve his puzzle-box every now and then otherwise all of them will be hindered by chains (which aren't controlled by you). And last but now least, you can teleport to the survivor who is trying to solve the box and if you find the box a chain hunt begins for all survivors and you see their location.

Out of the ones you listed, my personal pick would be Pinhead. He can be difficult to learn, but once you master his chains you can have a hell of a lot of fun with him.

Correct me if I'm wront but didn't Demogorgon's perks became availabe to everyone when he was removed from the game? I bought the game 4 years ago and I'm not sure if a new player will have his perks too.

Upon the return of stranger things, nancy/steve/demo perks have returned to being teachables. IIRC if you had them on a certain character you kept them, but anyone else you'd need the unlock.

since you put it this way, cenobite outclasses everyone you listed since all his perks are comp tier and hes got a very strong killer power and the clear winner

wesker on the other hand is an S tier killer with some of the most niche/worst perks in the game so hes 2nd last place, last place goes.to the king freddy as hes horrible in chase and awful perks

everyone else has 1 good perk and 2 mid perks and theyre not garbage in chase so pick any

Why not do a youtube search on each killer to see which suits your interest best?
