Guide to entering the hole in the washroom in Silent Hill 4: The Room, including finding the RUSTY AXE and the code 3750.
Walkthrough
- 1Follow the hallways and stairs down to meet Richard in the cutscene (a non-player character who provides information).
- 2Run through the door right past the Gum Head.
- 3Take the GHOST'S KEY from the Ghost on the floor. You can also take the SWORD OF OBEDIENCE here, perhaps for Cynthia's Ghost.
- 4Use the GHOST'S KEY to go through the door and take the larger stairwell down.
- 5Proceed through the southwest door at the end.
- 6Take the other door to the sporting goods store.
- 7The ALUMINUM BAT and 5-IRON are here if you want them. The bat can replace your pipe, but you will be getting the Rusty Axe shortly anyway.
- 8Head through the other open door across the shop; the left door is locked.
- 9Follow the stairs down, enter the pet shop, and grab ALBERT'S SPORTS KEY at the end of the middle shelf by the cat food. Walk if you want to avoid triggering the Sniffers (enemies).
- 10Head back up and exit from the side door in the sports store using ALBERT'S SPORTS KEY.
- 11Take the stairs down, follow around the corner, and enter the second elevator which will take you down to B12.
- 12(The SPADE and a SWORD OF OBEDIENCE are available at the end of the path through the north elevator doors on B8 via the top button).
- 13On B12, take the elevator ladder down to the shower room and climb up the other ladder past the Whitestools (enemies).
- 14Head downward and follow the pathway, then take a right at the fence to the next area.
- 15Push past the Gum Head blocking the door (who holds a PITCHING WEDGE if interested) to pass through.
- 16Head down the stairs, through the door, down the next staircase, and enter Bar Southfield at the very end.
- 17Grab the RUSTY AXE on the table ahead, which is quite frankly the best weapon in the game. You can consider skipping any weapon after this.
- 18[16/52]: BARTENDER'S MEMO is on the counter.
- 19Enter the code 3750 (the phone number on the billboard outside 302's window) into the keypad and leave from the exit door.
- 20Follow the lengthy staircase all the way up to the top.
