The Pig Shed is a major location in Darkwood found in the Silent Forest. It is where the Villagers keep the Sow, their only food source.

Appearance[]

The Pig Shed consists of three buildings, a house with the Generator and the lever, which is always guarded by one of the Villagers, a small Pig Shed filled with stalls for pigs and a big Pig Shed, also filled with stalls, which is also housing the Sow. Additionaly there is a small camp with one tent located next to the house.

The house is small, with only three rooms. There are severed pig heads laying in piles, outside next to the entrance. After going inside, in the first room there is a bathtub with pig blood inside, a standing lamp, a single chair with some clothes on it and a lever with cables going further into the house to a room with the generator and outside to the big Pig Shed through the hole in the shed's wall. The cables are cut, but can be repaired.

The lever is used by the Villagers in order to stun the Sow for a moment (around 15s) with electricity while she is being fed, so that she does not eat the person feeding her. The voltage is set by putting the lever in the right possition, marked by the attached plate, which also prevents accidental usage of too big voltage. Then pushing the red button acctivates the electricity.

Inside the second room there is a makeshift bed laying on the floor with a second standing lamp next to it and a shelf with two Bottles and the Flyer located next to the room's wall. It is inhabited by a Villager, who is guarding the Generator, so that no outsiders mess with the electricity and do something to the Sow, their only food source. He will yell "Get out of here, you fucking freak!" as soon as the Protagonist enters the room and he will attack if the Protagonist lingers inside for too long or attacks the Villager first. After killing him his body can be looted for Bread.

The third room is the smallest one. Inside there is a shattered Mirror on the floor, in which the Protagonist can see himself, some Mushrooms in the corner and the Generator.

In between of the house and the big Pig Shed there is a small camp with one tent and a campfire with a pot in the middle.

Both of the Pig Sheds are sourrounded by a thick barricade made out of wood. The only entrance leads through a small hole, into the small Pig Shed.

The small Pig Shed is partialy destroyed, with a big hole in one of the walls. It is filled with rows of stalls for the pigs, which are filled with hey. It is mostly empty, except for a couple of pig's corpses and a small crate in the back corner containing a Toolbox and some other items.

In the yard, between the two Pig Sheds there is an old, broken tractor containing the Rearview Mirror, used for Piotrek's quest. There are also idle Pigs and an wooden wagon, besides which two Villagers sit, talking to each other. In their conversation the Protagonist can overhear the news of a tragic accident that happened recently. Someone has cut the cables connecting the Sow to the lever and during her last feeding she killed the Villager that was feeding her. If the Protagonist gets to close to them, they will start yelling "Who in the flying fuck goes there?!", "Get out of here or we'll break your legs!", if he goes even closer after that warning one of them will yell "I'll rip your head off!" and they will attack.

The big Pig Shed is an "L" shaped building also filled with many rows of stalls and dead pigs but this time there are also idle Pigs, some of them eating the pig corpses. Straight in front of the entrance there is a Villager that will yell "Don't come any closer!" and attack if the Protagonist ignores his warning. There is a crate in one of the stalls containging a Battery, two Potatos and a tank of Gasoline. At the very end of the Pig Shed there are three carts filled with strange meat standing inside one of the stalls and further in lays the Sow. Next to her there is a corpse of the Villager she killed during her last feeding. It is intended to be able to loot this corpse only after the Protagonist kills the Sow (it is possible, although it's hard, to loot the corpse earlier, but the code found on the paper will not work on the crate if Sow is still alive). The body contains a Single-shot Pistol and the Madman's Scribblings which are updated as Madman Scribbles #2 in the Journal.


Speculation[]

Minor spoilersThis article contains minor spoilers. Reader discretion is advised.

The cables to leading to the big Pig Shed have been cut by Hanuska, after the Villagers burned her house, took away her baby (who according to them was an 'abomination') and threw it into the Village Well.

Proof of this theory comes from Hanuska herself. She can be found sitting in a chair in the ruins of her house. Initially, she does not respond to the Protagonist's presence. When the player takes the Burned Doll from the crate next to her, she'll say "Kill the pig" revealing her heavy resentment towards the other Villagers. When killed, Hanuska drops a Knife and a Cable proving the theory to be correct.

Additionaly her child can be found inside the Village Well: it is a unique Small Red Chomper which carries the Unburned Doll, a doll identical to the one found with Hanuska.

After killing the Sow Hanuska dissapears from her house.

Bugs[]

  • Before Alpha 7.2 the Pig Shed had a bug where some players would not be able to operate the generator's lever. This has been fixed in later versions.
