[Evidence] Vincent was not joking on the monster thing...

Heather finds out why it's true that you shouldn't talk to strangers. Or look in mirrors, quite honestly.

I'm sure if somebody played with the field of vision hack it'd show up a little better. Also, you could get a higher quality screenshot and clean it up a little to reveal the crown of the head—the details match up with Angela's crown pretty well.

EDIT Here's a comparison shot.

There's really no way to make the screenshot on the right pretty because of the visual effects as the scene begins, but you can make out Angela's head a little bit better.

I'm sure if somebody tinkered with the FOV hack, you'd just see Angela's disembodied head floating there.

Interesting.

I wouldn't take much stock in it, though. The fact the designers already reused a model once, inexplicably, indicates to me there isn't any significance to it being used twice.

Good eye, though.

I've known about this already and I don't think this head means something. Without hacks you can't say who is the owner of the head. But there is something else. This head has been modified, it's not the same head as in Silent Hill 2. Thanks to keen eye of one russian fan:

Haha! Yeah, I knew for a while too, I thought it was old news. However, I never noticed that little piece by the ear. It's a little odd because that was something that was never meant to be seen; similar to the cables on Harry's VCR. Neat-o!

But anyway the point I was trying to make was that there was at least one other person around. I feel like the designers threw this head in the restaurant to help give the idea that the mall was indeed populated up until we assume control of Heather. That and everything we hear going on in the mall up until the point where stuff goes down.

However, that's just purely what I'm thinking.

This. I don't think the model itself has any significance, because if it did we would be shown more of it than what we were. Instead, I believe it's just a way to show the mall was populated, along with (if I remember correctly) the voices we hear.

I still think Vincent meant he idolizes or worships the monsters, but that's just my opinion. Although, the mumbling could have been the monster chowin' down on the dead body. I don't think this is concrete evidence, but I'd accept it as a pretty solid theory. The idea of Heather walking in on two people dry humping each other in a store at the mall, and then killing them because of the otherworld just seems a bit outlandish is all.

Yes, you can hear voices just before the cut-scene with closer. Just like crowd's sound in a cafe during the first cut-scene in real world.
But there is something else. Heather finds a gun. It's not fully charged. What is that thing? Is it an illusion like Great Knife or healthdrinks? Can it be a real gun? If it is so, where is the rest of the bullets from the charger?

It probably just manifested, like just about everything else. They're not illusions, but manifestations. Besides, why would a gun be there otherwise?

I actually meant to explain, because I don't want to make the same mistake in the future if I'm wrong.

And people-I was joking about me having sex in Toys R' Us

There's a higher chance of a gun being in a shopping store (for security) than being randomly thrown in random locations, like SH2's handgun and such. In fact, I think the only realistic weapons that could be given in a real situation of SH3 would be the pocket knife and the pipe (also the gun).

Alright, so why is a gun right there on the floor of a clothes store totally unattended, presumably while two people are totally ripping into each other with the act of coitus?

I've always thought that the voices you hear where simply "echoes" of people in the "real world"

like meanwhile in the real world the mall is completely populated and you can briefly faintly hear them before plunged into THE HORROR :shock:

Is it unattended? There's a woman getting her face eaten by a monster less than ten feet away. It seems to me the gun belonged to her . . . but the Closer won.

Remember: Other people get wrapped up in the Otherworld, too.

Well apparently the bitch threw the gun or something because it's like seven feet away from her.

Agreed. I always assumed it was her gun as well.
Maybe she dropped it while having her face eaten. I would probably do the same thing...

It's almost as if she was attacked and didn't just stand in the middle of the room waiting to die! like, maybe, just maybe, she tried to get away from it! Holy fuck.

I don't mean to stretch it too far, but I think that the Closer was the Security Guard, with the worker being the body on the ground. The guard might have strewn his clothes and supplies on the floor.

like SH2's handgun
I don't think it was random location. You can see bullet holes all over the walls, thousands of them. And that shopping trolley. How about Eddie trying to kill mockingly laughing faces at the walls?
