Silent Hill: Book of Memories[]
The artifact.
It is also an artifact in Silent Hill: Book of Memories; It is required along with the White Feather and the Dog Tag to unlock the Joke ending. It doesn't affect stats. It is described as, "A medallion with a deep blue stone inset, which produces a constant hum."
It is found Zone 22+ (rooms) and Zone 25+ (shop for 3,200 MR).
Trivia[]
Channeling stone texture.
The channeling stone in Silent Hill 4, accessed with Action Replay codes.
- Silent Hill 4: The Room was originally supposed to have included the Channeling Stone, and the texture files can still be found on the disc. The item description reads, "Stone imbued with a strange power." The item's model and texture files are located in the same file with the hidden back room area of Room 302, suggesting that the Channeling Stone was supposed to be found there. The player would supposedly find a Dirty Stone, and by washing it in the sink, it would become the Channeling Stone.[1]
- The symbol on the stone is the same as one on a supposed UFO seen in Spain in the '60s, apparently piloted by beings from the planet UMMO. It is also similar to the alchemical symbol for the planet Uranus (♅).
