Silent Hill 2 (Video Game)	comment	Silent Hill 2note A later port for the original Xbox has a subtitle, which differs between regions of release. Restless Dreams is the North American subtitle of the game; Inner Fears is the European subtitle, and Poem of the Last Moment is the Japanese subtitle is a survival horror video game released in 2001, and the second game in the Silent Hill franchise. Despite being set in the eponymous town, it is not a direct sequel to the first game (that wouldn't come until Silent Hill 3), but rather a Gaiden Game that nevertheless continues its unique take on Psychological Horror and then some.James Sunderland receives a letter from his wife, Mary, that begs him to meet her at their "special place" in Silent Hill, a resort town they visited together once on vacation. He has just one problem with the letter: Mary has been dead for three years. Determined to find out who wrote the letter and why they sent it, he travels to Silent Hill, finding it abandoned and shrouded in a perpetual fog — a far cry from the pleasant village he remembers.During his exploration of Silent Hill, James meets several people who may have a connection to the letter: Angela, a disturbed runaway looking for her mother; Eddie, an immature and mentally unbalanced young man; Laura, a young girl who seems to know Mary and bears a grudge against James; and Maria, a stripper with a remarkable resemblance to Mary who begs James to protect her. And to top it all off, the town seems to have a mind of its own, twisting itself and the monsters stalking its streets into terrifying symbols of his fears, vices, and guilty conscience...Often regarded as not only the apex of the Silent Hill series but a masterwork of horror video games, Silent Hill 2 is well-known for its bleak atmosphere and intensely psychological and metaphorical storyline, alongside its much-improved gameplay compared to the original. The game also has Multiple Endings based on James' general behavior throughout the story (rather than on specific choices at certain junctions).A remake of the game was announced on October 19, 2022, being developed by Bloober Team (>OBSERVER_, The Medium) for PlayStation 5 and PC. A live-action film adaptation of the game, Return to Silent Hill, was also announced in 2022; it is set to be directed by Christophe Gans, who also directed the first Silent Hill movie.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_105d50b1	type	Psychological Torment Zone
Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_105d50b1	comment	Psychological Torment Zone: The entire town of Silent Hill is this for those it targets. James is tormented by his guilt over the murder of his wife, Angela is constantly reminded of her sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of her parents to the point she considers (and possibly goes through with) suicide, and Eddie is unable to escape the fear and hate that come with years of being bullied. Laura is the only one not affected by it due to not having any sins at all.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_1073963d	type	Psychosexual Horror
Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_1073963d	comment	Psychosexual Horror: Maria is a physical lookalike of James's wife Mary, which implies there is a connection between them before the events of Silent Hill. Unlike Mary, though, she acts extremely flirty and sultry towards James and dresses in a low-cut skirt and a top that slightly bares her midriff. Later in the game, it's revealed that Maria is the incarnation of James' sexual frustration while Mary was bedridden due to her illness. The Bubble Head Nurses are shambling, twitchy female figures wearing sexy nurse outfits that lurk in the dark hallways of Brookhaven Hospital. The nurses are designed to represent James Sunderland's own sexual urges during Mary's sickness, and their disfigured heads could be an allusion to Mary's own superficial deformities caused by her terminal disease. A monster known as Abstract Daddy, which resembles two figures intertwined on a bedframe and covered in a layer of flesh, which represents Angela's history of sexual abuse at the hands of her father and brother.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: While 2 is not quite as viscerally terrifying as its predecessor, nor the following game, it's still frightening and haunting throughout, as well as considerably darker than either of them. The story is far more depressing and grim, due to revolving around a grieving store clerk with rather severe psychological issues being chased around by a blade-wielding monster who is the physical representation of his guilt and desire for punishment... among other things. Themes of mental illness, lust, domestic abuse, punishment, and more are prevalent throughout to further establish the game's morbid tone.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77	comment	Multiple Endings: A series staple. Leave: James forgives himself, makes peace with Mary, and leaves Silent Hill. It's implied that he ends up adopting Laura like Mary wanted to in this ending. In Water: Mary begs James to move on, but James can't shake the feelings of guilt. He kills himself by driving into Toluca Lake (along with a dead Mary, who was in the backseat the whole time) in order to truly be with her again. Maria: James turns to Maria to shake the guilt of killing Mary, but as they leave Silent Hill together, Maria coughs awfully, implying that she has contracted the same disease that killed Mary. James, taking an uncharacteristically dark tone, tells her, "You better do something about that cough." Rebirth: James turns to the occult to bring Mary back to life, gathering items found throughout the game and taking her body to the church near the lake to resurrect her body. We do not see the results, but they're probably not pretty, given Silent Hill's track record of "rebirth". Dog: James breaks into a room in the hotel where he finds a Shiba Inu controlling the entirety of Silent Hill. He starts speaking Japanese as he realizes the dog was behind everything that happened to him, falls to his legs overcome with grief as said Shiba Inu licks his face to cheer him up. Yeah. UFO: Another series staple. Harry from the first game (still looking like he did on the PS1) arrives at the hotel, and the two protagonists discuss their motives before James is abducted as well.

It does serve a function, namely that frequently looking at this item in the inventory and allowing James' health to remain low will result in the "In Water" ending, in which James commits suicide. However, the knife isn't used in the actual act (looking at it just implies suicidal tendencies) and it remains unused in your inventory forever. Lampshaded in the inventoryâ€™s text where it says â€œI donâ€™t plan on using this as a weapon.â€� In the Brookhaven hospital, James finds a Dry Cell Battery. Later, in the Silent Hill Historical Society, he has to use it because his flashlight suddenly goes out after finding a key.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_276ad49e	comment	Karma Meter: Unlike the rest of the main Silent Hill series, the ending is determined by an invisible Karma Meter. And unlike most video games, it's not just "good" and "evil": staying at full health as much as possible gives you "Leave" and "Maria" points. Glancing at Angela's knife periodically and not giving much of a damn about your health gives you "In Water" ending points. Examining Mary's letter multiple times, especially after the text vanishes, counts towards "Leave." Various documents and other items you can examine can give you points on all three meters.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: The Great Knife, if you can land a hit, does enormous damage, and you'll feel as dreaded as its owner with it in your hands. The downside is the same as the good reason Pyramid Head is so slow. James will be dragging the weapon while walking and turning slower than usual, and has a long time before the swing can connect - but it works quite well on targets that are stunned on the ground. While much faster than the Great Knife, the chainsaw still has enough of a windup before striking that many enemies will easily be able to get a free hit in on you (particularly Lying Figures, the only ones with a ranged attack). The Hyper Spray's damage output varies based on your in-game ranking, but even the weaker spray colors are useful because they're capable of stunlocking enemies. The problem? Using the spray also deals damage to James.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6	comment	Boring, but Practical: Your basic pistol may not be the flashiest weapon, but you'll find plenty of ammo for it and it is very handy for the rank and file monsters in the game. It's also useful against most of the bosses because you move fairly fast with it and can quickly reposition yourself between shots, whereas the shotgun and rifle are slow and have a lengthy delay before you can move after each shot. If it's inadequate for a task, your shotgun can usually handle the challenge. It helps that there are two combination safes in the game that provide you with a heap of additional ammo. The combinations are not too challenging to decipher with some persistence.

Throughout the game you can find almost 600 handgun bullets, 200 shotgun rounds, 70 rifle rounds, etc. On Normal difficulty, as long as you save ammo by using your Finishing Move and don't waste ammo by fighting anything on the streets (where they can be easily evaded), you've more than enough bullets to kill everything you come across 2 or 3 times over.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_42215dce	comment	Ambiguous Ending: The Maria ending, which sees James refusing to take responsibility for killing Mary; accepting Maria as a substitute partner; and subtly threatening her when she so much as coughs. This ending hints that the cycle may repeat, starting with Maria dying (either from sickness or by James' hand)... but to what extent his journey repeats is unknown. The Leave ending sees Laura walking off ahead of James. However, Laura was never really fond of James, so it's possible that he doesn't adopt her in this ending (which is what Mary had wanted to do) and they're simply walking off together to James' car. It's also not clear if they reconciled after James revealed to her that he killed Mary, which would understandably make Laura hesitant to be adopted by James. The Rebirth ending, obtained through a New Game Plus. James tries to resurrect Mary with some sort of ritual, but the player doesn't see the results.

In this case, Bogeyman is instead a manifestation of Alex's father's guilt. Also, in Origins we have the Butcher, who is visually somewhat similar to ol' Pyramid but has different symbolism. Whereas Pyramid Head is about the guilt of James, the Butcher is either the cruelty and sacrifice of the Order, or is some manifestation of Travis' psyche, possibly fear and anger. Inverted by The Abstract Daddy, who is sprung from Angela's psyche. When it reappears as a Degraded Boss, Angela is nowhere to be found, but the player later finds that she has indeed been nearby.

After leaving the Apartments, James encounters Laura, who drops this on him as she leaves: When James finally reaches the old room he stayed in at the Hotel, he finds a videotape and plays it. James then is forced to remember that he killed Mary anywhere from a week to a few hours ago, and he tells Laura this as softly as he can. Depending on the ending you get, Maria may deliver one in the conversation before the Final Boss. The most obvious one is in the "Leave" ending where James sees "Mary" and calls out to her.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9	comment	Central Theme: Guilt and punishment. Pyramid Head is the best overt example of this, as he is a manifestation of James's guilt for killing Mary, and his desire to be punished for what he's done. Maria's entire character is meant to invoke this. Her constant deaths are meant to hammer in the guilt to James even harder, and she even berates him in a way that is clearly meant to invoke feelings of guilt in James. Angela feels that she deserves to be punished for the constant sexual and emotional abuse she suffered in her home life, even though she really doesn't. Eddie desires not to be punished, but to punish those who have bullied him his entire life. A lack of guilt for his actions ends up leading him down a dark path where he becomes an unapologetic murderer. Laura is the only character who is truly innocent in every sense of the word (even when she acts cruel or angry), and therefore feels no guilt. To Laura, the town has no monsters at all, and she's free to leave after she discovers the truth about what happened to Mary.

In SH2, the cult and the occult become mere background elements, with the narrative instead focusing on repression of memories and guilt. The later Silent Hill: Homecoming was really the first game in the series where both of themes were central to the plot.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	type	Guide Dang It!
Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: As noted above, Silent Hill 2 breaks the mold by being less intuitive about its endings than the previous and subsequent games, relying on various conditions dictated by the player's behavior over the course of the story. Some of them are foreshadowed slightly, but otherwise they're never clear as to why one happens over another. "In Water" is probably the easiest ending to get as it requires taking a lot of damage that the player is lax about healing quickly, checking Angela's knife at least once, checking out the journal on top of Brookhaven Hospital, and listening to the tape and hallway conversations in the Hotel. Essentially, you act suicidal, but also try to be a completionist and explore the game thoroughly, which all but ensures this ending. "Leave" is also relatively easy, but generally requires the player to be fairly aware of its requirements to get it. The player needs to heal often whenever James gets injured, check Mary's photo and letter, and avoid getting too close to Maria while she is following you. Basically, act like you want to live and still care about Mary to get this one, but avoid interactive places that would inspire James to feel depressed. "Maria" is considerably harder, as it does require Violation of Common Sense in some ways. Protect Maria at all costs, make sure to check up on her whenever possible when she starts feeling poorly in Brookhaven, and otherwise stay by her, listen to her, and don't annoy her by pushing her out of the way when moving. More or less, the player has to essentially forget Mary and prioritize Maria over everything else. This one is especially difficult during the infamous Pyramid Head chase in the basement of Otherworld Brookhaven. "Rebirth" is difficult due to the fact that it's only possible after beating the game once. This one requires collecting 4 relics scattered throughout Silent Hill. Collecting all four overrides any other endings you're progressing through, but good luck finding them all...

Unfortunately, she's a construct designed to distract James from his quest. Playing the game like a completionist (exploring thoroughly, examining all objects, conserving your health items unless you're critically hurt) actually gets you one of the darkest endings, as multiple examinable objects (Angela's knife, the diary on the roof, the nighttime message in Neely's Bar, and the audio tape in the Alternate Hotel) massively increase your score towards getting the "In Water" ending (just 2 out of 4 can give you the ending, especially if you play through the game at even 80% health).

Unusually, the game realistically portrays how impractical such a weapon would be in real life — James drags it as he walks, and has to struggle to even lift it for a strike. Pyramid Head himself even drags it along slowly and takes a while to do the overhand swing. As an extra form of symbolism, the Great Knife is actually one half of a pair of scissors. The developer's intent was for James to obtain the other half of the scissors later in the game, symbolizing Pyramid Head's role as a reflection of his psyche. However Ito did not have enough time to put a second Great Knife in the game.

James's side of the journey is learning about these hidden backstories and the "best" ending shows James leaving with new-found peace. However, the forces behind Silent Hill are quite malevolent, and exploit the negative thoughts and feelings of those trapped within (guilt, shame, self-hatred, etc.) with the aim of tormenting them, not out of any altruistic goal of helping them to find redemption. If James does so anyway and is able to leave the town, it's only because him coming to terms and making peace with what happened left Silent Hill without any means to torture him further.

All three of these routes would lead to the seemingly ultimate destination, Rosewater Park. Instead of just going over or ducking under said police tape and getting things over with, James wanders off a side road to encounter the first monster - after which point, the police tape gets cut and allows passage. Inspecting the Historical Society's parking lot shows the nearby boat landing is accessible on foot, being blocked off by a swivel gate that could easily be bypassed simply by climbing over or crawling under it, neither of which James will consider doing to get to his true destination across the lake. Of course, considering the town he's in and what he finds once he starts exploring the museum, it's not hard to infer that something would have happened to keep him from taking such a shortcut anyway.

You may interpret James' choices and fate whichever way, for all are equally valid, and no single conclusion holds more weight than the others. The only reference to James later in the series comes in Silent Hill 4, when Frank Sunderland mentions that his son left for Silent Hill and he hasn't seen him since. This doesn't really prove anything, though: even in the "Leave" ending there are plenty of reasons why James might have chosen not to return to his old life, ranging from lingering guilt over Mary's death to perhaps being wanted for her murder (and, of course, the difficulty of legally adopting Laura as a single parent who recently euthanised their spouse).

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	type	Foreshadowing
Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: On the Forest Trail at the beginning of the game, the first save spot is found at the bottom of a shallow well. This foreshadows James jumping down a well-like hole at the Historical Society and becoming stuck until he breaks down a weak point in the stones. At the very beginning of the game, Angela warns James that the town has "something wrong with it", yet James seems to brush it off. When Angela reacts like she thinks James believes she's lying, he tells her that he believes her, but realizes he rather doesn't care if it is or not. While on the one hand it shows his determination to find Mary, it's also a subtle hint that James is actually suicidal and isn't bothered with the thought of getting killed. James's lack of care of his own safety are also displayed throughout the game; he sticks his hand in a hole in the wall without being concerned about what could be in there, he'll jump into several holes in the ground during his trip in the prison area with barely any hesitation, and he also comes across a noose where he stretches his neck upwards to reach it, which almost makes it look like he's about to put his head through it to hang himself. Also foreshadows the "In Water" ending since acting dangerously will result in that ending, reinforcing James' attitude of not caring about danger anymore. At the bowling alley, Laura bluntly asks why Eddie doesn't just confess to his crimes. Near the end of the game, James has to confess to his crimes to the twin Pyramid Heads, which is the key to him finally able to leave Silent Hill. Partway through the Labyrinth, James comes across a graveyard with graves for himself, Eddie, and Angela. Eddie always dies, Angela's fate is left ambiguous, and James can die depending on the ending.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_a0c7f4e9	comment	The game shifts into this type of experience during and after exiting the hospital. The town becomes completely dark and James is led to a "Historical Society". From there, James explores an underground prison that devolves into complete Bizarrchitecture that takes him further and further underground, with an impossibly long stairway and multiple deep, man-made-looking holes that he must jump into. Towards the end he discovers Maria alive, who claims to have never been killed in the first place. The nightmare seems to end after James gains a significant insight, and this places James back into the foggy town from earlier. Lampshaded by a door encountered in the first wing of the town which is unlocked during the aforementioned Nightmare Sequence and also has a relevant quote written next to it:

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_c3d20e77	comment	Tulpa: According to some theories, the existence of the character Maria can be explained by this concept as an eroticized manifestation of Jamesâ€™ deceased wife. She is briefly playable during the Born From A Wish segment included in the re-release, subtitled Restless Dreamsâ€”which subtitle itself is suggestive that she was literally conceived primarily from Jamesâ€™ unconscious desires, specifically his repressed sexual desire concerning his late wife Mary during the progression of her disease. Maria also seems to share some of Mary's own memories apart from James (hence her knowledge about and empathy for Laura), as well as an occasional outburst of the inner dominatrix (James often perceived Mary in her last years as a manipulative bully, bent on emasculating him). Although Maria physically resembles Mary, their personalities differ starkly; and throughout the game, Maria makes numerous attempts to delineate her individuality and differentiate herself from Mary before James, who is consistently unable to distinguish the two.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: A character named Eddie dies in a freezer. The infamous closet scene is homage to the equally disturbing Blue Velvet. Maria's outfit is based on Christina Aguilera's outfit at the Teen Choice Awards in 1999. Picture here. James get dragged through the hospital via gurney. He's wearing an Olive M-65. His initials are JS. Seem familiar? It's one of multiple recurring nods to Jacob's Ladder found throughout the series. In the hospital Nightmare Sequence, a note is found that references a "precious ring", a major Artifact of Doom in The Lord of the Rings. This may also be a nod to Gollum's underground cave in The Hobbit. The ring in question, the Copper Ring, is paired with a Lead Ring to open a door that ultimately lets James leave Brookhaven Hospital and venture into dark Southvale, much like the Ring of Power lets the user see into the spirit realm. In the Lakeview Hotel, if you examine the heater, James will find a note on the back of it that says: "I'm Johnny, one hot guy." This may be a reference to the The Shining (Heeeeeere's Johnny!) where main character Jack Torrance forgets to adjust the pressure on the old boiler room of The Overlook Hotel, causing it to catch on fire. A poster for The Shining can also be seen on a wall before James gets to town. The infamous Dog Ending is based on a memorable scene the Murder, She Wrote episode "It's a Dog's Life" that also features a dog using a security system control panel to wreak deadly havoc (although the dog in question was a beagle rather than a Shiba Inu).

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_d39e327f	comment	The Maria ending, which sees James refusing to take responsibility for killing Mary; accepting Maria as a substitute partner; and subtly threatening her when she so much as coughs. This ending hints that the cycle may repeat, starting with Maria dying (either from sickness or by James' hand)... but to what extent his journey repeats is unknown.

Presumably James is also driven to madness in the Maria ending, where he decides to forget about Mary and live with Maria, who isn't real, being just a manifestation of his guilt.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_d7639dba	comment	Achilles' Heel: The town itself is profoundly powerful, able to cater to your traumas and fears and keep you trapped indefinitely, but it can only work with what you give it; if you make peace with your situation and have the resolve to start anew, the town cannot continue to detain you. The town only works if you have traumas and fears that it can exploit. If you're an innocent child with no psychological baggage, like Laura, then you're essentially a tourist allowed to wander around at your own leisure.

Downplayed in that it's noticeably less monster-infested than the apartments, hospital, or historical society/prison, and largely is just creepy and empty. Even the Other World version of it doesn't have many monsters in your path, with only a handful of basic enemies between you and the final bosses.

Pyramid Head stops using his quicker, more dangerous swipe and starts exclusively using his slow, easily dodged overhead swing, once you kill one Flesh Lip the other is much easier to deal with by itself and the third one only shows up once the first two are dead, Eddie's attacks become less aggressive and he starts trying to run away and hide as his health gets low, and Maria uses her butterfly attack less often as she starts getting low on health, giving you more time to pump bullets into her.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_e5421161	comment	A cross-game example: Pyramid Head is explicitly made from part of James' damaged psyche, but enemies with a similar design and purpose appear in other games across the series to menace different characters: Homecoming has the very similarly appearing Bogeyman, with just a few minor design differences between the two. In this case, Bogeyman is instead a manifestation of Alex's father's guilt. Also, in Origins we have the Butcher, who is visually somewhat similar to ol' Pyramid but has different symbolism. Whereas Pyramid Head is about the guilt of James, the Butcher is either the cruelty and sacrifice of the Order, or is some manifestation of Travis' psyche, possibly fear and anger.

It's not a major factor due to the generally slow enemies in the game, but managing the sequel's sprint meter is much more important due to the faster enemies and several sequences requiring extended running.

Most of them are manifestations of James's sexual frustration and increasing depravity ever since his wife Mary fell terminally ill, and the two Pyramid Heads originate from his guilt of murdering his wife the week before and later Eddie in self-defense, existing for the sole purpose of fulfilling James's desire for karmic punishment because of said guilt. Once he realizes he doesn't need the Pyramid Head to punish him for his sins, they promptly skewer themselves on their own spears.

Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_f6624c30	type	Together in Death
Silent Hill 2 (Video Game) / int_f6624c30	comment	Together in Death: Monster designer Masahiro ItÅ� has confirmed (via Twitter) that Mary's dead body was in the backseat the whole time. This means that, in the "In Water" ending, James drives her into Toluca Lake with him, never to be separated again. (It can be further inferred from Mary's presence in the car that to complete such a murder-suicide was actually James' initial motivation for returning to Silent Hill.) However, there's no direct evidence supporting her presence in the car in the game itself, with the ending merely depicting the car sounds and James' internal dialogue over a black screen. Nevertheless, that internal dialogue begins with "Now I understand. The real reason I came to this town," and ends with "Now... we can be together." It should be noted that the graffiti in the Dark World version of Neely's Bar taunts him that he "might be heading to a different place than Mary" (i.e. hell, since he committed murder and, by that point, has at least considered suicide).
