Setting:
Silent Hill is just another quiet resort town, likely somewhere on the East coast of the US, with gorgeous scenery and a dark secret. If you've ever read a Stephen King novel set in a sleepy Maine town, that's the sort of place Silent Hill is. The town itself can trace its history back centuries to ancient rites performed by the native peoples, all the way up to the current cult prescence in the area. It's a dark place, lorded over by pagan blood gods and goddesses, where reality bends to the will of the subconscious.

The town itself varies wildly depending on who goes there. It seems as though innocents, such as Laura in Silent Hill 2, see the town as perfectly normal. Others see it depending on the particular brand of darkness in their hearts; Angela saw it as constantly burning, Eddie saw it as a frozen meat locker, and James saw it as... well, no spoilers. Pyramid Head only makes his appearance in the dark Otherworld, a place where the towns influence is strongest on those it has trapped. He is part of the local mythology, a sort of punisher who appears to those who the town (or even the individual in question) has deemed guilty. Executioners of the cult would don red hoods over their ceremonial robes, either taking inspiration from Pyramid Head or inspiring his form, which nods to his particular role within the canon.
