Library in Silent Hill: The Short Message

This guide explains where to find the book in the library in Silent Hill: The Short Message.

Silent Hill: The Short Message, the first entry in the series since 2014’s P.T., debuted on 31 January after a surprise announcement at the PlayStation State of Play.

The game, which is free-to-play on PS5, is a short Silent Hill title that follows a girl, Anita, as she searches for her missing friend, Maya.

Transported inside an apartment complex known as the Villa, Anita finds herself trapped inside a repeating loop of corridors and rooms while being chased by a malevolent cherry blossom monster.

The Short Message takes place over three chapters, each being a loop of the Villa. During one of the loops, Anita is transported to her high school in search of a book, and a letter letter inside it, that Maya gave her.

During this section, the first place she visits is the school library where she must find the book.

So, let’s take a look at where to find the book in the library in Silent Hill: The Short Message.

Next, you must go back through the door you just came through. This will take you to a corridor that is lined with lockers (you came here earlier).

This time, look for Amelie’s locker – it is about half way up the second bank of lockers, after the desk in the middle of the corridor. The book is inside.
