Appearance and symbolism[]
Kashimashi is a physical manifestation of Hinako Shimizu's emotions.[2] It is a feminine humanoid covered in wounds that attacks its victims with a grin on its face. Hinako describes the creature as masses of flesh sewn together, writing in her journal, "I wonder if it wants to hurt me the same way that it was hurt."[4]
Behind the scenes[]
Kashimashi was designed by kera for the video game Silent Hill ƒ.[5][6] Its name is a Japanese word meaning "noisy" or "boisterous".[7][8] A 1/6 scale collector's statue of the creature will be mass produced by Gecco Corp, sculpted by Tanabe Shin.[9][10]
