How to get the flashlight

When you find yourself in the eastern part of the city, you will discover that the flashlight is hardly needed here. You will have to visit several buildings and establishments where you can solve a few puzzles and progress through the story. However, in the Wood Side apartment complex, you can't do without a light source.

To get into the apartment complex, you will need to run through East Silent Hill and collect a few items:

  • First part of the record — located in «Neely's Bar.» This bar, located in the central part of the city, is one of the first places you will visit. You can find the record in the jukebox. It looks like an old vinyl record with a yellow border.
  • Second part of the record and glue — located in the music store. This store is located near «Neely's Bar,» in the northern part of the city. Inside the store, you will encounter two enemies that you don't necessarily need to knock out. Instead, break the glass and jump into the adjacent room. The second part of the record will be on the shelf, and the glue can be found on the table in the center of the room.
  • Coin — hidden in the cash register of the «Texas Cafe.» The cafe is located in the eastern part of the city. Upon entering the cafe, you will see the cash register on the counter. Open it with a key to find the coin, which you will need for the jukebox.
  • Button «2» from the jukebox — located on the top floor of the apartment complex in the lower left part of the map. This is a small building with three floors. Once you reach the top floor, you will find a passage to the restroom and a hole in the wall. Press «Inspect» to get button «2.»

After collecting all these items, solve a simple puzzle and watch a cutscene with the record player. As a reward, you will receive the key to «Neely's Bar,» which will allow you to access the courtyard. Next to a blue car with license plates ending in «06,» you will find the key to the Wood Side apartment complex.

Path to the flashlight

Once you reach the apartment complex, immediately go up to the second floor and turn right. In the distance, you will see the only open door — the light source is coming from this room. Inside, among mannequins, you will find one with a flashlight hanging on its chest.

Note: As soon as you pick up the flashlight, a new monster will attack you. It's up to you whether to knock it out or run away. The monster is quite aggressive, so be ready to make a quick decision.
