Your brother josh.


 * Asphyxia

The first boss. A human centipede monster. (Hehehe! Human centipede...) her face is covered by her hands. Symbolising her execution for the pact sacrifices. Asphyxiation. Has many arms.

She represents one of the children of Shepherd’s Glen who was sacrificed. The daughter of the village doctor. The bosses are each of the children sacrificed who will return as a monster and kill their parents. However Asphyxia’s mother escapes this fate by running away. Hopefully the pyramid head got her.

Represents the daughter of one of the villagers in the pact. Scarlet died of exsanguination, blood loss from lacerations to her throat. She had a doll and the magic of Silent Hill turned that doll into a monster when her father drops it into a magic pool of blood. Daddy Scarlet then gets killed by the monster.


 * Sepulcher.

A boy of the village killed for the pact. His parents buried him alive under a tree. His monster form is a giant demonic tree monster like Groot! XD.

Symbolises one of the pact victims. When Sepulcher arrives he promptly squishes his father with his big branch like arms.


 * Amnion

The final boss. A headless woman with mechanical spider legs growing from where her head should be.

A twisted version of Alex’s mother with Joshua’s corpse inside its stomach. It is your guilt over your brothers death you must face. Just as you have faced the guilts of the other pact members.
