Silent Hill 2 - Descent into the Historical Society

"Honorary" Otherworld shift, as it's not traditional in nature.
James finds a stairway at a burned wall in the museum, leading into nonsensical corridors, pits, and a prison that has been demolished for decades.

I'm here because of Jacob Geller's video 'Games that Don't Fake the Space'.

[@marckcf9600]

This game always make you feel like there's something huge and terrifying waiting for your to discover it

[@KC-dg9pu]

yea and that's scarier than the literal something huge and terrifying being shown

[@RNvideosedits]

for me this is the scariest part of Silent Hill 2.

[@ankur9254]

The monsters are just okay...the environment is the real hell that puts fear in you.

[@ankur9254]

Like the big execution room...every second you spent there was pure terror.

[@Megaspartan23]

Darkness there and nothing more.

[@Kids_Scissors]

If you look at it in the right way, it looks like James is walking on a normal floor while leaning really far back lmao

[@davidpeltier1668]

Tu as raison, moi aussi ça m'a donné cette impression-là.

I wonder if Metal Gear Solid 3 took inspiration from the descending stairs in silent hill 2 for the ladder sequence.

[@antoniodesimone8459]

I think yes. Also both games end similar with a mercy kill on a female final boss.

[@KevinDurantBurnerAccount]

@@antoniodesimone8459 that’s a great point!

[@antoniodesimone8459]

No Big deal bro, Hideo Kojima is a big fan of the Silent Hill Games

[@thebob-eexperience1762]

I’ve always ran down these stairs, we’ll see how this looks for the remake

[@domenicoaraujo9913]

For those who don't know, as James goes down through that long stairs that will lead it to the an old prison camp, we can hear something like a hornet or a trompet sound. Well, that's actually the sound of that historical ⛴️ named The Little Baroness that went missing in the Toluca lake.

[@Boarder4892]

I’m curious, how did you find that out?

[@domenicoaraujo9913]

Well man, I did a research about the story of Toluca Lake and the 🛳️​Little Baroness. As I watching the videos about that🛳️, I just notice the sound that the 🛳️ was doing. Then it came so rapidly in my mind that part of SH 2 when James descend that Historical Society, and that sound that we hear through the hall way down. At first I didn't have any inch of idea of what or where that sound of that supposed trompet was or came from, which made me so terribly curious.@@Boarder4892

@@Boarder4892 it's true, nubzombie on twitch, a silent hill lore expert confirmed it too. Very creepy

[@remembernavarro5344]

@@Boarder4892 He pulled it out of his ass, like half the theories that exist regarding this game.

[@HoopyCoows]

This, mario 64 and the oldest view are the reason for my irrational feal of very long staircases. Also im 100% sure kane pixels took inspiration from this

[@musicaleuphoria8699]

Silent Hill's real history has a lot more buried underneath.

[@ferr66]

The Lighthouse, that siren sound reminds me that movie, crazy and funny picture at some moments. 😅

[@wintonchorn3631]

Bro just chilling taking a stroll in nowhere in the otherworld

[@mrgrumpy888]

The sound that sounds like a horn is taken from the X-Files episode "All Things" (s07e17), when Scully has that vision at 34:40
