Konami has made a return with the release of Silent Hill 2, a remake of their legendary horror game. This game is known for its odd puzzles, which may be time-consuming and frustrating. The remake of Silent Hill 2 is no different. This guide will demonstrate how you can solve the Vanity Mirror Puzzle and with it unlock the Suitcase.
The Suitcase in the Lakeview Hotel Room 208 requires a code that can be acquired once you attach a red bulb to the Vanity Mirror. However, if you are impatient, you can skip this step and scroll all the way down to get the code for the suitcase although we do not recommend it. The suitcase holds an important key inside that you’ll need to progress through the game.
First, you’ll need to locate the suitcase; go to the Reading Room in order to complete the Hotel Book Puzzle, which unlocks Room 205 – the room where the suitcase is located. You can view our Silent Hill 2 | How to Solve the Hotel Book Puzzle Guide as the puzzle can be a bit confusing.
In order to solve the Vanity Mirror Puzzle in Room 205 you’ll need to fix the broken bulb for which you need to collect a bunch of items.
- Blood Red: Paint Can
- Bolt Cutters
- Light Bulb
- Can Opener

How to get Can Opener

You’ll need to combine all the Items once you are done collecting them in your inventory. Combine the Can opener with the Blood Red: Paint Can to get an Open Paint Can. Then Combine the Open Paint Can with the Light Bulb to get a Red Light Bulb.
Make your way back to the Vanity Mirror in Room 205 and remove the old broken light bulb. Place the new one in its place. The code for the suitcase will pop up in the mirror that you can use to get a key.
