Line 28:
* [[Big Creepy Crawlies]]: Alessa is a bug enthusiast, and her hobby is reflected in the monsters.
* [[Big Red Button]]: The school's boiler room, and the hospital's power generator.
* [[Bland -Name Product]]: The bag of jellybeans containing the Key of Bethor is a knockoff of the Jelly Belly persuasion.
** There are several throughout Silent Hill, like Queen Burger, Convenience Store 8, and Benny's Diner.
* [[Booby Trap]]: {{spoiler|The fridge in Nowhere.}} It wouldn't be so bad, except that it's the only one in the entire game and happens without any warning.
Line 48:
* [[Dead All Along]]: {{spoiler|Lisa, as the only place you ever find her is in the Otherworld; Harry in the (non-canon) worst (bad) ending.}}
* [[Deadly Doctor]]: Dr. Kaufmann; also, a number of parasite-possessed [[Mook]] doctors.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: {{spoiler|Harry fights a manifestation of the cult's god in the final battle.}}
* [[Do Not Run With a Gun]]: Harry is the worst marksman in the series by far.
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Emergency Fire Hammer. Less a mallet, more like [http://lparchive.org/Silent-Hill-1/Update%208/8_16_32_17.jpg spike on a pole].
Line 59:
* [[Four Is Death]]: The fourth floor of the hospital that appears out of nowhere, leading Harry into the [[Dark World|Otherworld]].
* [[Friendless Background]]: Alessa Gillespie was branded a witch in elementary school due to the manifestation of her telekinetic abilities. If Harry examines the facsimile of her classroom desk in Nowhere, the surface is scrawled with the words "GO HOME", "DROP DEAD", and "THIEF".
* [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]]: Cybil to Harry {{spoiler|in the BAD+ ending}}.
* [[Having a Gay Old Time]]: Lisa reminiscing about Silent Hill's past. "Everyone followed some kind of queer religion."
* [[Hilarious Outtakes]]: Only applies to the Bad+ ending and above. Various characters screw up as if they were actors in a film.
Line 66:
** The school's rain gutter contains a key lying just out of reach. You'll need to divert the water.
* [[I Know You Are in There Somewhere Fight]]: {{spoiler|Cybil}} being controlled by the Puppet Nurse parasite. Unless you've collected a key item (and are replaying the game, [[Guide Dang It|or have been reading a strategy guide]]), [[Redemption Equals Death|bullets are the only cure.]]
* [[Infinity Plus One+1 Sword]]: The emergency hammer in Alchemilla Hospital's power generator room that's obtainable while in the otherworld. It is the best melee weapon you can find and is really good on Puppet Nurses and Puppet Doctors.
* [[Justified Save Point]]: Fish gotta swim, writers gotta write. Harry takes careful notes on his experiences; these notepads come in handy for Heather {{spoiler|aka Cheryl}} in ''[[Silent Hill 3]]''.
* [[Karmic Death]]:
Line 77:
* [[Lighthouse Point]]: Dahlia sends you here.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Referencing the [[Brand X]] entry above, the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestal_Virgin Vestal Virgin] Wiki entry has an 18th century painting of a vestal, done by one Angelica Kauffmann.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|Nice Job Breaking It, Harry]]: Twofold: He is being {{spoiler|used as a pawn by Dahlia, with potentially world-ending results}}, and in a more heartbreaking sense, {{spoiler|Harry may be able to acquire the means to save Cybil's life before it becomes necessary to do so. The only problem is, he doesn't ''know'' he has the means until after he kills her, which would have to make the final encounter that much more sickening for the man.}}
* [[No Name Given]]: Harry's late wife, who is only seen once, during the opening sequence. Harry doesn't even mention her until his first conversation with Dr. Kaufmann, where he states that she died four years prior to the current events.
** Supplemental material later identifies her as "Jodie".
