A couple of months back, Imogen reported Lance McDonald – the modder behind a number of cool hacks in Bloodborne and Dark Souls – had uncovered the horrifying realisation P.T.’s terrifying antagonist, Lisa, is, quite literally, attached to you as you roam that looping hallway. A few weeks later I had the dubious pleasure of reporting that the camera hack had also uncovered Lisa’s headless body lying in a bloody bathtub.
Well, now McDonald’s back, and whilst it was always that the first-person protagonist in the P.T. / Silent Hills teaser was Norman Reedus, McDonald is able to confirm it once and for all.
“Just to put any uncertainty finally to rest after all this time, yes, the guy you play as in P.T. is the same guy we see in the ending cinematic,” McDonald tweeted (thanks, GameRant). “Not that there any real doubt, but yeah, it’s Norman Reedus the whole time.”

The latest rumour – and honestly, this is a rumour, so please employ generous handfuls of salt – about the doomed Silent Hills suggested the game was planning to send IRL messages to your phone and email as if the game had taken on Christine-esque sentience as you played it.
