All headstones must be original submissions and cannot reflect any previous characters from the franchise. In order to enter, all you need to do is visit the Silent Hill Facebook Graveyard Tab and submit your artwork.
Submissions close by February 10th, at which point the top six submissions will be posted to the Facebook front page for voting. On February 16th the top three winners will be revealed.
