Crafty Silent Hill 2 Fan Turns Pizza Boxes Into a Replica of Pyramid Head's Helmet

Key Takeaways

  • A fan recreated a pizza box Pyramid Head mask from Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake.
  • Community praised the mask, joking about fending off in-game mannequins or wielding a pizza cutter.
  • Previous pizza box Pyramid Head masks have appeared online; latest game patch introduced bug fixes and Steam cloud saves.

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I must admit that the creativity and ingenuity displayed by the gaming community never cease to amaze me. The latest example comes from a fellow gamer who has crafted a pizza box Pyramid Head mask, inspired by the recent Silent Hill 2 remake by Bloober Team.

A gamer created a replica of the pizza box Pyramid Head mask that appeared in Bloober Team’s recently released Silent Hill 2 remake and shared the silly yet impressive project online. The well received modern rendition of Silent Hill 2 launched on October 8.

The enigmatic character known as Pyramid Head in the chilling survival horror game series, Silent Hill, is often more recognizable than any of its protagonists, thanks to his unique headgear. Despite his fearsome portrayal in the games, Pyramid Head has garnered a significant following, with fans and even the creators behind Silent Hill using him as inspiration for numerous memes. A player has crafted a mask inspired by one such humorous meme, and it’s been met with great enthusiasm among fellow fans.

In a recent post on the Silent Hill subreddit, user jessilyncupcake showed off their pizza box Pyramid Head mask. The item this was based on was one given to players who pre-ordered the digital Deluxe Edition of Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake. In addition to receiving a copy of the game, those who purchased the same pack early also received the Mira the Dog Mask and two days of early access, as well as a digital artbook and soundtrack. Sony PlayStation 5 owners were given a Robbie the Rabbit Mask too for pre-ordering the digital Deluxe Edition.

People in the community highly commended jessilyncupcake’s mask, with one user likening it to a clever gadget that might even scare off the spooky mannequins in the remake of Silent Hill 2. Another person humorously suggested a large pizza cutter would complement the mask well. Jessilyncupcake, who has earned nearly 6,000 upvotes for their post, shared that they were planning a group cosplay photoshoot next week and that the headpiece was intended for their partner.

I’ve seen the Pyramid Head mask crafted from pizza boxes pop up online before, not just this time. Back in 2019, Tumblr user jrodorr showcased a costume complete with that headpiece, a blood-splattered apron, and a giant peel, the tool for putting pizzas in the oven. Fans like Reddit’s Xeno_Rider have even cosplayed as Silent Hill’s Pyramid Head without the goofy pizza box mask.

On October 25, the latest update for Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 was released, fixing a bug related to the rotating cube puzzle in the Labyrinth level, which is powered by Unreal Engine 5. The 1.05 patch for the 2024 version of Silent Hill 2 also included Steam cloud save support.
