Still in shock about Dr Kauffman shooting us for no reason (and somehow missing), Harry and I begin to explore this wonderful Alchemilla Hospital in this episode of Silent Hill.

First thing on the agenda, do the thing that I did last time but last time it didn't work but this time I'm gonna do the same thing and it will work because video game logic. And then start opening doors, get scared, get lost, repeat.

It's time to go back to where it all started! The series that got me into the horror genre of video games and remains one of my favourite series to date, Silent Hill.

My first experience with Silent Hill was playing the demo disk which came with Metal Gear Solid back in the day. It was only a short demo but it was enough to convince me, and plenty of others, that this game wasn't gonna mess around!

I actually ended up playing through Silent Hill 2 first a number of years later, before coming back to the original. It's a terrific game that, despite the aged graphics, can still give anyone a spooky time. The soundtrack, atmosphere and storytelling is great and I can't recommend it enough.

So join me, as Harry Mason, as we go searching for our daughter Cheryl in this not so friendly tourist town called Silent Hill.

Silent Hill synopsis:

Silent Hill is a survival horror video game for the PlayStation published by Konami and developed by Team Silent, a Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo group. The first installment in the Silent Hill series, the game was released in North America in January 1999, and in Japan and Europe later that year. Silent Hill uses a third-person view, with real-time 3D environments. To mitigate limitations of the hardware, developers liberally used fog and darkness to muddle the graphics. Unlike earlier survival horror games that focused on protagonists with combat training, the player character of Silent Hill is an "everyman".

The game follows Harry Mason as he searches for his missing adopted daughter in the eponymous fictional American town of Silent Hill; stumbling upon a cult conducting a ritual to revive a deity it worships, he discovers her true origin. Five game endings are possible, depending on actions taken by the player, including one joke ending.

Silent Hill received positive reviews from critics on its release and was commercially successful. It is considered a defining title in the survival horror genre, moving away from B movie horror elements, toward a psychological style of horror emphasizing atmosphere. Various adaptations of Silent Hill have been released, including a 2001 visual novel, the 2006 feature film Silent Hill, and a 2009 reimagining of the game, titled Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. The game was followed by Silent Hill 2 in 2001.
