Editor's note

As someone who enjoys taking things apart and understanding how they work, I'm excited to see Silent Hill make its way to the UK. It's intriguing to see how this iconic game can adapt and thrive in a new environment, and I'm curious to see if its core horror elements can still resonate and captivate gamers.

Panel 1

Alex (excitedly, hands-on)

Alex: Imagine! Silent Hill, but with Scotland! It's like a haunted castle in the fog, but now it's a haunted castle in the fog AND it's full of real Scottish accents! Sam, are you ready to take down the world?

Panel 2

Sam (deadpan)

Sam: Yeah, let's do this. Except, Alex, remember those pesky ghosts from the original? I'm not sure how you're going to handle the 'Heather Walk' scenario.

Panel 3

Robin (chaos catalyst, swirling his drink)

Robin: Well, if we can pull this off, we might just have ourselves a real Silent Hill franchise. Because let's face it, who doesn't love a haunted Scottish castle? Let's just hope the ghosts are as entertaining as the scenery.
