The Silent Hill Cage of Cradle

  


Interactive manga comic book written by Hiroyuki Owaku and illustrated by Masahiro Ito. It is currently only available on cellphones in Japan.

What is known, however, is that the story will focus on Lisa Garland before the events of the first game in the series. Promotional images reveal that Doctor Kauffman will appear, as well as the notorious Pyramid Head and Alessa Gillespie. These images show noticeable influence from the visuals of the Silent Hill movie.
