There’s more to Team Silent’s horrifying creatures than meets the eye.

The Monsters of Silent Hill 2

When James Sunderland arrives in Silent Hill, he finds strange creatures roaming the empty, fogbound streets. On the surface they’re simply enemies waiting to be shot or bludgeoned to death. But nothing in Team Silent’s horror masterpiece is that simple. As you journey through the town and learn more about Sunderland, you begin to realize that there’s more to these monsters as well.

They’re so unusual. None of art director Masahiro Ito’s designs can be traced to creatures from other horror fiction. “I wanted to give them a human aspect,” Ito said in a 2001 making-of documentary. “When you first see one as a silhouette in the distance, obscured by fog, you think it’s a person. But then I undermine this human aspect by giving them strange movements and using improbable angles for their bodies.”
