So I just found out that someone who idolized Walter Sullivan killed his teacher in 2017...??

True crime talk and a link under the cut...

FROM THE ARTICLE:

"The student's idol was known to be Walter Sullivan, a character from the Silent Hill computer game, a maniac and a religious fanatic, said friends.

The teenager used an avatar with his character in his profile.

A member of one forum to which Emelyannikov belonged said the hashtag he used on his social media account where he posted the appalling pictures of his dead teacher - was 11117, referring to yesterday's date.

He said: 'Andrey committed his murder on 1 November 2017. He began to write this number under his posts in our group a while ago. Does it mean that he planned a murder long ago?'"

I didn't know about this, but SH4 fans know the significance of the style of numbers. I'm glad he didn't hurt more people but it makes me physically ill that this happened. I fell out of the Fandom but I am guessing why this is why we don't really do Walter day in November any more?
