Fatal Error Crash with depth DLC

I played the main game with no issue. Also, my husband assures me I more then meet the game requirements. I even did the the Steam file fix. I turned all my graphics low. But, every time I die in Depths or try to start from last check point I get a Fatal Error crash and the game goes to desktop.
I have seen the Fatal error crash that wouldn't let people start the game. It isn't that wordy. It really just says Fatal Error Crash and makes my screen go the wrong resolution.
EDIT: updated drivers on graphics card, did not help

Ok, I did some science and it appears to only happen around water. No matter what my setters are. Any help?

I have exactly the same problem, except it only happens after reaching a certain area. Also, I noticed that during the drowning animation the player position does not follow the hand and sometimes starts moving around randomly.
Maybe there's a problem with that specific death type, but I have no idea how to fix it.
EDIT: the crash also happens when restarting from checkpoint or going back to main menu.

My husband who is the computer guy tried updating drivers and fiddling with things. Still crashes sadly. I really, really want to play the DLC too.

Temporary solution for this; every time she grabs you, hit the escape button really fast and go back to the main menu before you actually drown. It's still annoying, but less so than having to restart the game over and over.

It is also a pain during puzzles. I just remember a puzzle where I need to move boxes. Then I jump to see if I moved them right and if not I fall into water. Game crash.
Very hard to figure out said puzzle that way

Same here. UE4-Atlas error and crash in same situation than describe here. Clearly a problem with the DLC.
Have plenty of other game to play, will go to Little Nightmare II and might come back later to the DLC when a fix will be done.
Many forums on the web report this crash, let's hope a fix will be available one day.
