I’d totally make a Silent Hill room. I always wanted to do that. For those who don’t know, Silent Hill is a survival horror franchise. The video doesn’t give much of an idea since it’s all shoddy, but the games are real creepy.
I’d make one big room into a SH room, probably a hospital room. No specific place from the game, but it would have the flare. I’d buy some antique gurneys and wheelchairs, or at least that sort of equipment from the seventies…preferably, it would have to be used up and all busted up and shit. Place them around in disarray, but leaving a ghost of past order. Old medical tools, and some random bed tables, drip stands, and messed up posters on the wall that subtly talk about house fires and the end of the world. I probably wouldn’t need much money to do that actually…just a lot of time. But I’d want my Silent Hill room to look really authentic. It would need to look really ancient and abandoned, and I’d have to find ways to make it look like that. I haven’t decided if I want it in the normal world or the game’s alternate reality. The alternate reality would be a lot more work, as the floors and walls would have to be made of rusted metal and gratings. Maybe a huge fan somewhere.
I could add health drinks and a melee weapon somewhere. Unfortunately I couldn’t have any real monsters, and I wouldn’t want some dummy…unless it’s a mannequin from Silent Hill 2…yeah…that might work! With a flashlight round its neck, and wearing some creepy dress.
Well the point of this room would be to capture Silent Hill’s supreme feel of despair and solitude. I’d spend a lot of money building one, if I could. then I’d just leave it unattended, so it really would get all old and dusty. That would rock, the closest I could ever get to really being in the game. Without the worry of getting myself killed, of course.
Second room I’d make would be a huge horror movie room. The walls would be covered with shelves full of horror movies. All sorts, as many as I can get, past and present, from all sub genres. It would be like a sort of horror chronicle/documentation room, where I’d strive to eventually have one copy of every single horror movie ever made. I’d also have horror paraphernalia and posters everywhere.
And finally, a huge ass TV to play them on, and a big comfy couch to invite people over to watch them.
