I was revisiting a video game that scared the crap out of me as a kid. Silent Hill. The game is a survival horror game where your stranded in some mysterious foggy city that is snowing ashes from like a fire. There are mutilated corpses and all kind of horrid looking creatures all over the city and you have to venture through a lot of freaky places, one of the most memorable was the hospital, which is filled with mutilated nurses with bandaged faces and scalpels.N Quite grotesque.
Now in the game there is a "Fourth Floor". This floor differs from everything else in the game as it takes you to a dark world where its really hard and quite scary.
So why the "Fourth Floor"? In Japan (where the game is) no Japanese hospital has a fourth flour. Why? Because "fourth" in Japanese is pronounced the same as "death". Bit freaky, and very creative by the game creators.
If there was a fourth floor in Japanese hospitals I would imagine the nurses would look like this.
If you want to get freaked out, play this game. It's from 1999 so the graphics are a bit out dated, but the imagery and scenarios you get stuck in will leave you sleepless.
