History Funny / SilentHill4

* In a way the Hospital World feels a lot like a parody. True there's blood and rust, but you have to deal with literal belching monsters and demonic wheelchairs. That's right, demonic wheelchairs. While one might be terrifying, it's hard to take it seriously when a bunch will group up to Henry thus flopping him all over the place.

** even funnier, when you see him falling like a sack of grain, with contorting, bouncing, or flinching in any way possible.

** If you shoot one of the Patients while they're standing near a descending staircase, they'll fall down it -- ''and burp every time they hit a step''.

** The scene where he finds her battered and mangled body is just as bad. She's sprawled on the floor, slowly bleeding to death, with every inch of the room covered in her blood. What is Henry's response?:
--->'''Henry:''' Are you okay?

* "Ouch! Dammit...!" Richard Braintree's reaction to falling at least two stories and landing on hard concrete, without breaking a single bone.

* Whilst revisiting Forest World, it is possible for Jasper's Ghost to glitch, putting its flame out. Subverted in the fact that he still deals damage the same way as other ghosts, is very fast, and is ''very'' aggressive.

---> Police and ambulance sirens become audible outside.

* In Building World 2nd Time, there is [[spoiler: A glitch you can exploit to bring Eileen through to the end without opening the Door of Time. By avoiding the door, you avoid triggering a script that spawns monsters where there weren't any before and thus don't have to get Eileen past them. The way you trigger the glitch also means you avoid bringing her past nearly all the other monsters. It's just so hilarious to completely dodge the usual burden of the EscortMission]].

--> '''Henry:''' (almost whimpering) Cynthia?
--> Police and ambulance sirens become audible outside.
--> '''Henry:''' Man, what's all that noise out there?

** Especially since each eye tracks Henry separately. Which means the thing gets crosseyed easily.

* Some of the stock sound effects can be pretty silly, like the dogs that sound like panthers, or the ten foot-tall ''burping'' patients.

* Most find the giant Eileen head from the hospital to be complete NightmareFuel, but sort of like that whole deal with [[MonsterClown Monster Clowns]], it has an equal chance of just being silly-looking.

* Most find the giant Eileen head from the hospital to be complete NightmareFuel, but sort of like that whole deal with {{Monster Clowns}}, it has an equal chance of just being silly-looking.

* Most find the giant Eileen head from the hospital to be complete NightmareFuel. This troper just thought it was silly-looking.

*** Despite his usual emotionless, in the scene where Cynthia is telling Henry about her 'special favor', if you look closely, he's trying very hard to not start grinning like an idiot or laughing in her face.

** Made even funnier with the fact he's gagging from the smell, sees the source, and then goes back to being bored, almost like he's saying, "Oh, is ''that'' all it was?"

* Henry's [[DullSurprise complete apathy]] throughout most of the game. It's pretty funny to watch him [[spoiler:discover a crucified corpse hidden in the back of his apartment]] while looking completely bored by the whole ordeal.
