Part of a waste management system, the actual sewage pipes aren't accessed but rather it's the maintenance tunnels that are explored. These tunnels are sectioned off by valve-controlled gates, which require a team of two to operate. There are at least 13 different gate systems, though few are actually operable. The tunnels are constructed around three key features of the sewage system - a bilge tank, a spillway, and a large, main drain chamber. How far the sewer system continues outside of Shepherd's Glen is unknown, as access to the deeper sections of the underground complex is either cut off, or simply left unexplored. |

Having little choice but to enter the sewers in order to escape a pack of [[Schism|Schisms]], [[Alex Shepherd]] and [[Elle Holloway]] navigate the dark tunnels of the Shepherd's Glen sewers in an attempt to reach safety. As the pair comes to the Main Drain Chamber, Elle is abducted, and Alex is left to defend himself against three [[Needler|Needlers]]. Shortly after they're killed, a [[Siam]] charges in to attack. Once dead, Alex escapes the sewers and surfaces back in town near his [[Shepherd House|home]]. |

Found only Silent Hill: Homecoming, the Sewers of Shepherd's Glen are a system of maintenance tunnels that run beneath the town.
Tunnel Map.

Alex and Elle operating a valve-controlled gate.
Part of a waste management system, the actual sewage pipes aren't accessed but rather it's the maintenance tunnels that are explored. These tunnels are sectioned off by valve-controlled gates, which require a team of two to operate. There are at least 13 different gate systems, though few are actually operable. The tunnels are constructed around three key features of the sewage system - a bilge tank, a spillway, and a large, main drain chamber. How far the sewer system continues outside of Shepherd's Glen is unknown, as access to the deeper sections of the underground complex is either cut off, or simply left unexplored.
Plot Significance
Having little choice but to enter the sewers in order to escape a pack of Schisms, Alex Shepherd and Elle Holloway navigate the dark tunnels of the Shepherd's Glen sewers in an attempt to reach safety. As the pair comes to the Main Drain Chamber, Elle is abducted, and Alex is left to defend himself against three Needlers. Shortly after they're killed, a Siam charges in to attack. Once dead, Alex escapes the sewers and surfaces back in town near his home.
Alex comes to a ledge in the sewers. A car can be seen ahead of him.
Trivia
- For whatever reason, in addition to tires, broken boards and other types of debris, cars can be found mired in the mud and grime of the service tunnels. Mostly in one piece, how they got there, or why they're there, is unknown.
