Pyramid Head [Silent Hill]

This is Pyramid head from Silent Hill 2.

If you have not played the Silent Hill games I recommend them!

This guy is well know in this game series, so I don't think I need to go into much detail.

Enjoy.


Pyramid Head, also known as "Red Pyramid Thing",^[1] "Red Pyramid", or "Bogeyman", and Sankaku Atama (三角頭^?)in Japan,^[2] is a fictional character from the Silent Hill series of survival horror video games published by Konami.


Introduced in the 2001 installment Silent Hill 2, he is the antagonist and he stalks James Sunderland, the primary player character, who comes to the town of Silent Hill after receiving a letter from his deceased wife, Mary. The Silent Hillseries, particularly the second installment, frequently utilizes psychology and symbolism: Pyramid Head represents James' wish to be punished for Mary's death. Masahiro Ito, the designer of Silent Hill 2's monsters, created him because he wanted "a monster with a hidden face".^[3] Known for his large triangular head, Pyramid Head lacks a voice, and his appearance stems from the town's past as a place of execution.


Pyramid Head has since appeared in other media in and outside the Silent Hill media franchise. Positively received inSilent Hill 2 for his role as an element of James' psyche, he has been cited by reviewers as an iconic villain of the series and part of Silent Hill 2's appeal.
