''Despite an extensive police search, not a single fragment of the ship nor any of the 14 bodies of passengers or crew has ever been recovered to this day.'' }}

In November 1918, the sightseeing ship ''Little Baroness'' disappeared with all its passengers and crew while crossing Toluca Lake, near the little town of Silent Hill. Despite all the subsequent inquiries, no bodies or shipwrecks were ever found. What no one knows is that Hanna, a poor little [[Ill Girl]], was thrown overboard by her mother for no apparent reason, and the ship's captain tried in vain to save her before... something pulled the ship underwater.

 

Cut to 75 years later, where Eric, the 21-year-old great-grandson of the captain, his classmate Tina, and some of their college friends arrive at Silent Hill to investigate the occult mysteries behind the town's legends, while Tina pays a visit to Emilie, a young Internet friend of hers who lives there with her father. Emilie looks an awful lot like Hanna. Needless to say, [[It Got Worse]].

 

* [[And I Must Scream]]: This is most likely the fate that befell {{spoiler|the passengers of the ''Little Baroness'', trapped at the bottom of the lake. Until Eric and Tina intervene, that is}}.

* [[Advancing Boss of Doom]]: Pyramid Head. Just because it's an arcade shooter, don't think he'll go down easily.

* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Monsters travel in packs, they like cheap hits, healing items are rare and don't heal very much, and as in the other games, one hit by Pyramid Head is an almost certain [[Game Over]].

* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]: There's an unusual number of long, awkward sections of the game where nothing happens and no monsters are around. ''And no music, either.''
