Silent Hill 2 Wood Side Apartments Key location

To get into Wood Side Apartments, you first need to find the Wood Side Apartments Key, which is located inside the dirty clothes on the ground near the greenish-blue car in the area between Neely's Bar, Texan Cafe, American Cafe, and Gonzales Restaurant. You unlock this area after solving the Jukebox puzzle at Neely's bar.

We recommend you explore the rest of the area before you pick up the Wood Side Apartments Key, as obtaining it triggers more enemy encounters.

Once you have the key, head to Wood Side Apartments on the west side of Katz St. and use it to unlock the front door.

Silent Hill 2 Wood Side Apartments walkthrough

The first thing you should do inside Wood Side Apartments is pick up the maps on the wall directly in front of you, just up the stairs. These will be essential in navigating your way through the apartment block.

Behind the maps is a save point, and the Coin Cabinet - the main puzzle of Wood Side Apartments. You can't solve the puzzle at this point, however, as you need to collect the Man, Woman, and Snake Coins first. Before you leave this room, search the drawer beside the doorway of the room with the Coin Cabinet to get x3 Handgun Ammo.

Now, you can start your journey towards getting the three coins for the Coin Cabinet.

Step 1 - Get the Chute Courtyard Key and Flashlight

The Chute Courtyard Key and Flashlight are in Room 202 on 2F of Wood Side Apartments, which you get to by going up the stairs on the west side of 1F. The Flashlight is attached to a mannequin doll, and the Chute Courtyard Key is on the vanity desk beside it - but be careful after you pick up the Flashlight, as a Mannequin enemy appears once you've finished examining it.

There's also x1 Health Drink in the northeastern corner of Room 202.

Before entering Room 202, or on your way back to 1F, you can get x2 Handgun Ammo in the toilets on the west side of Room 105 to the right of the Chute Courtyard door, x1 Health Drink under the western staircase, and x2 Handgun Ammo on the very top floor of the western staircase.

Step 2 - Get the Golden Apple Handle and 2F Hallway Key

Now you've got the Chute Courtyard Key, use it on the door to the right of the save point on 1F, then move the trolley on the northern side of the courtyard over to the open window of Room 112 and climb through the window.

Pick up x2 Handgun Ammo from the bedroom, then leave Room 112. You can skip Room 109 if you like, as there's a Mannequin enemy by the sofa, and only x2 Handgun Ammo to find inside.

Go to the bars at the end of this eastern corridor and try to pick up the key on the other side. Laura will rudely kick them out of the way, but this cutscene triggers the other door beside the toilets on the eastern side of 1F open. So next, unlock the door beside the bars where you are and make your way back to the lobby, then go through the newly opened doors beside the toilets.

Enter Room 108 and investigate the wardrobe, then turn the left hand downwards to unlodge the Golden Apple Handle, which is needed for a later puzzle. Exit Room 208 and search the end of the corridor to get the 2F Hallway Key, then go through the door on the left into Room 107
