Romper
Description:
A hideous, hunched over monster with putrid flesh, fused hands and feet, a collar around its neck, with dangling nerve endings protruding from its mouth.
Method of Attack:
The Romper is a powerful apelike monster in Silent Hill that attacks with a body blow and pins down its victim. These monsters leap or "romp" around at high speeds while laughing dementedly, making them hard to avoid. It is best to avoid them. If necessary, the shotgun and the rifle are the best weapons against them. A character can also turn their flashlight off and try to sneak behind the romper. A successful surprise attack with a hammer can dispatch a Romper in a single hit.
Symbolism:
The Romper is a manifestation of Alessa Gillespie's fear of adults.
Reasons for Manifestation:
• Instilled fear of adults.
• Intimidation.
• Suppressed resentment being an adult.
Area:
