Have you seen Harry's daughter anywhere? Short, dark hair?

Could someone explain to me these things...

Post by Anonymous »

There are 3 things in silent hill that I couldn't figure out... (maybe spoilers)

1.
PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
What do the wheel chairs mean other than a reference to Jacob's ladder?
2.
PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
Who is leanard Rhine? At first I had this confused with Leanard wolf but then I noticed a different surname. I remember seeing this name in the message written next to the body in the boys rest room located on the 1st floor in the alternate school. The message states "Leanard Rhine, the monster lurks."
3.
PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
In the end scene at the heart of the place known as nowhere where the incubus fight takes place there is a body in a wheel chair positioned to the left of Allessa. It combines with her to summon the god. It is because of this that this body seems to have some connection to the events that occur. My question is whos is this body that sits in the wheel chair and what gives it such purpose that it can be used in a ritual to spawn the god?

I just can answer the questions 2 and 3...
PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
The message leonard Rhines, The monster Lurks is talking about 2 books that are at the alternate library reserve... the Monster Lurks book talks about how to defeat the Lizard, The Leonard Rhines book talks about how the fears and emotions of the teenagers can become a reality, specially with the girls... This is a hint about Alessa...
I can asnwer the first qauestion cause I haven't seen jacob's Ladder

ah yes the two books I recognised the title of one being the monster lurks however I didn't piece together the Leanard Rhine part. I was hoping that message ran a little deeper but oh well.

Thank you for the explanation.

The other two questions are still open if anyone else can help me.

PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
The charred bopdy on the wheel chair is the old Alssa's body who has burned 7 years ago

Yes that makes sense because cheryls body was changed into Allessas new body if I'm not mistaken.

I'm guessing that the wheel chair is just a symbol of Allessas suffering since her body was contained to a wheel chair

The wheel chairs....

Alessa in the hospital with the burns.
Now the dream of this life must end, and so, too, must the dreamers within it.

I understood the second and third question, but what is Jacob's ladder?

See your own question #3.

>Leanard Rhine, the monster lurks.
L E O N A R D R H I N E T H E M O N S T E R L U R K S = 27 digits
T I M O T H Y F L Y T E T H E A N C I E N T E N E M Y = 27 digits

It's from the Dean Koontz novel, Phantoms.

>whos is this body that sits in the wheel chair...?
They are the two aspects of Alessa: fourteen years ago & seven years ago. The essence that is Alessa, and the essence that is "Cheryl".

Again, why nobody takes a look at this?

Because making a new post is easier than looking at a floated topic, apparently.. Frank Sullivan please be more careful next time and search through topics, or at least the stickied ones, to see if your questions have been answered. :)


And just as a sidenote: I think the wheelchairs are related to many more movies than simply Jacob's Ladder. Most notably, The Changeling.

However, since the third question is completely different from the first two.. I guess this stays open.
I'm not dead yet, dammit.

No problem, Frank. Just check it out whenever you've got time in your hands and you'll get a few kicks out of it.
