*'''Grey Child''' [''Silent Hill 1''] - They do not wield knives like their video game counterpart, but instead use their clawed hands to grab and drag their victim. Their appearance has been altered to look blackened and smoldering. The Grey Children emit a high-pitched shriek and are seen swarming [[Rose DaSilva|Rose Da Silva]] when she chases an image of Sharon, quite similar to what [[Harry Mason (Silent Hill character)|Harry Mason]] experienced during the first game. They in theory represent Alessa’s pain when she was being incinerated by the cult.{{Fact|date=October 2008}} However, given the typical theme of the cult, it's more probable that they are merely those who tortured Alessa as a child.

*'''Creeper''' [''Silent Hill'' 1, 2, & Arcade] - Thousands of these creatures crawl around Red Pyramid in Midwich Elementary School where Rose first encounters him. They are later seen swarming members of the [[The Order (Silent Hill)|religious cult]] and finally crawling through the hole made by Red Pyramid to attack Cybil Bennett and Rose. When Cybil stares down at one of the upturned insects, she discovers to her horror that it bears a small, screaming, human-like face. This fits with a making of in which the creeper was told to be originally human as every other monster.
