Silent Hill 2 Hints
Door Demons
1 of 4: These guys ... look like doors. No, really. If you took a door and put it on the floor, then had a couple of very close friends lie on it, then poured tar over them and told them to writhe, you'd have a door demon. The first one is a minor boss in the prison, and thereafter you'll find them in the hotel.
2 of 4: Their only attack is to jump on you and chew on your head. It's more damaging than it sounds because once they start biting they generally don't stop until you're dead. (Except in Beginner. Everything's easier in Beginner.)
3 of 4: Stay at a distance and shoot with something powerful, like the Shotgun or the Rifle. If they get within jumping distance, back off and keep firing. (The Great Knife is also fun here if you have the time to use it.)
4 of 4: And these guys don't wriggle, but they do fall to the ground, then get back up again. Keep firing till they fall to the ground and collapse like a punctured balloon. They're not dead till the radio stops hissing.
