Silent Hill 3 Hints
How do I get past the door that's chained shut?
1 of 6: Heather sure can't open the chains with her hands, so you'll need an item to open the chains.
2 of 6: Search everywhere you have access to. There should be no door, no stairway that you haven't at least tried to pass through.
3 of 6: Maybe there's a way Heather could get that nut off the bolt, but she can't do it by hand...
4 of 6: If you explored thoroughly, you may have found a nutcracker. Too bad you didn't have this to take care of the walnut...
5 of 6: You can find the nutcracker behind a pile of rubble blocking a pathway. You can get there via Platform 1. Check your map.
6 of 6: Use the nutcracker on the chained door to release the chain and pass through the door.
