UFO Ending

From Silent Hill Wiki

Every Silent Hill game has multiple endings. A recurring ending in each game, with the exception of Silent Hill 4: The Room, has an ending involving extraterrestrials in some way known as the UFO Ending. Each UFO Ending is done in the theme of different Sci-fi styles.

Contents

Silent Hill 1

Harry being carried off by the aliens

When Harry Mason uses the Channeling Stone, found in the convenience store on top of the lighthouse, a group of UFOs is seen in the sky. As the UFOs land the cutscene changes style to a roughly animated picture show. Harry, unfazed by this strange turn of events, asks the aliens if they have seen his daughter, but is shot down and brought into their UFO. The UFOs take off and the credits roll.

Use it in the following locations:

  1. Alternate School Roof.
  2. Alchemilla Hospital's doors before boss fight.
  3. Inside the motel.
  4. Before Lighthouse in the the boat.
  5. In the Lighthouse top.

This ending reflects a comic-book style, with still hand drawn/painted looking images.

Note that the ending sequence with the picture stills is a reference to the trading card game and subsequent movie Mars Attacks!

Silent Hill 2

James being abducted

This ending is only available on the Director's Cut or Greatest Hits releases of Silent Hill 2. Find the Blue Gem in the rest stop bathroom and use it in these locations:

  1. The Brookhaven Garden, after boss fight.
  2. In front of the row boat on the dock, after boss fight.
  3. In Room 312 before doing the required event there.

There is no spoken dialogue as the ending is conducted in still pictures with slides inserted with text, in the manner of a black-and-white silent film of the early 1900s. James Sunderland meets Harry Mason (looking exactly the same as Silent Hill, PS1 graphics and all), at which point each asks the other if they've seen the person they're searching for (Mary and Cheryl Mason respectively). An alien appears and shoots James with some sort of ray gun, then the alien and Harry drag James away. Harry and the alien share a thumbs up as the screen fades. The credits roll in the same style as the ending.

Silent Hill 3

Silent Hill 3 UFO Ending

On a second game, kill at least 30 monsters with the "Heather Beam/Sexy Beam" attack before entering Harry's apartment. The UFO ending in this title rolls as a simple interplay of crudely drawn pictures. Heather Mason comes home to find that her father is not only still alive but is sitting at the table having tea with an alien with James Sunderland watching in the background.

Her father, addressing her as Cheryl, asks her what's wrong (Harry's voice is rather warbled and odd-sounding). "Cheryl" explains the events of the game thus far. Harry reacts explosively, announcing that, "I'm going to Silent Hill to bust some heads!" as he jump-kicks a board James is holding. The alien appears unmoved but Heather cheers exuberantly, yelling "Oh Dad, you're the coolest!" The scene cuts to aliens destroying the town of Silent Hill, the credits roll over the destroyed town as voices in the background sing the "Silent Hill song", a very silly song. This could be seen as the happiest conclusion to the game: Harry is still alive and Silent Hill itself is totally destroyed.

This ending is done to a comic style similar to the first game's UFO ending, except drawn in more of a traditional comic-book style with a somewhat animated ending of the UFO ships destroying Silent Hill.

Silent Hill: Origins

Mira and the alien as seen in Origins

On a second game, find the key to hotel room 502 then try unlocking room 502 with it. Travis Grady tries to open the door, though it doesn't open, even with the key. To Travis's surprise, a UFO comes down from the sky and opens revealing an alien and Mira, the dog from Silent Hill 2's Dog ending, except now it has a transparent space helmet. They greet him enthusiastically, and Travis asks them if they have seen his truck. The alien tells him that his truck is on the alien's planet, much to Travis' extreme delight. Travis asks if he can come with them, to which the alien responds "Do you drive stick?" Travis joins the two on their ship, and then flies away with them.

This ending reflects a more Anime or Manga Japanese art style.

Silent Hill: Homecoming

Similar to the game's normal Good Ending, it diverges just as Alex Shepherd and Elle Holloway, about to embrace, are suddenly abducted by a UFO, to which Alex can only say, "Aww shit.." As they are both floating up, Deputy Wheeler comes out and shouts about how he knew that this is why people had been disappearing. The UFO then quickly flies away. To get this ending, you must not shoot Alex's mother, do not forgive his father, but save Deputy Wheeler.

This ending takes on the aspect of a more contemporary science fiction film, as the traditional 2D drawing art style is absent.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories

James makes a cameo
Mira and the alien speaking

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories ends with Cheryl believing that her father was abducted by aliens, to which Dr. Kaufmann states it made more sense when she was talking about cults and demons. Cheryl then comes to the conclusion that the whole town of Silent Hill is a giant space ship, and the door opens to show James Sunderland. He interrupts Cheryl and Dr. Kaufmann's appointment, much to Dr. K's frustration. He asks if he has the wrong day again, to which Dr. K tells him his appointment is tomorrow. Upon leaving, Dr. K makes a comment stating that James is a patient from his couples seminars, and about not having seen James' wife in a while. Cheryl is suddenly replaced with Mira, and Dr. Kaufmann turns into an alien. Mira then complains about her mother being a bitch (female dog). In the last frame, Mary's boss form can be seen in the upper left corner, the Flauros is seen on a shelf, and James can be seen behind the alien's chair, watching with curiosity.

The art style is that of a manga comic, much like that of Origins, which was also developed by Climax. This marks Mira's third appearance in the series.

To get this ending, you must first finish the game. On your second play through, you need to call the phone number on the billboard above Theresa's Threads (United Fruitcake Outfit 555-3825). You will then be able to find and capture on your camera 13 UFO's hidden throughout the game that weren't visible before. You need to capture all 13 to get the ending.
