Abstract Daddy: The Doorman in Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill's Transforming Otherworld
In the eerie and enigmatic world of Silent Hill, the town's denizens often take on monstrous forms to those who enter. This is hinted at in Silent Hill 3 by Vincent, who suggests that the town's inhabitants appear as monsters to outsiders. This concept is further explored in Silent Hill 2, particularly through the character of Angela and her unique Otherworld.
Angela's Disturbing Past
For Angela, her Otherworld manifests as a room with holes in the walls and a strange tin can. This room seems to represent her traumatic childhood, where she was abused by her father, who she refers to as "Daddy." This experience shaped her into a deeply troubled and withdrawn individual, struggling to cope with the scars of her past.
