The Original Silent Hill’s Infamous Alley Intro Is Still The Scariest Moment I’ve Ever Experienced In A Game

In 2000, my family and I visited our local Blockbuster. This time, 9-year-old Zack decided to rent the original Silent Hill for the PlayStation 1. The game wasn’t new at this point, and the PS1 was starting to show its age, but I was happy with the console and excited to play a new game. My mom was aware it was rated M, but I had played other T and M games before, so she let me rent Silent Hill . Later that day, I’d play what remains the scariest moment I’ve ever experienced in a video game.
