Dr. Hill is a Psychiatrist that Josh had sessions with after the loss of his sisters. The first few seemed like legit flashbacks, and it shows how long Josh had been planning his "game". The later ones are hallucinations, Josh is seeing what Dr. Hill would say about the situation he is in.
+Thaal Sinestro I think the first actually happened to him, but the rest I think are hallucinations. As we see with the one inside the mines, Dr.Hill follows him there. It seems, that the place they meet at in each 'visit' is the place we or Josh is at currently. In the second 'visit' it looks like it's inside the lodge, instead of the office. And as we advance through creepy stages of the game, the office is creepier as perhaps that was what was around Josh at those times. I can just imagine him taking breaks in certain areas, and just having to talk with Hill once more. I thought Dr. Hill was going to be the 'Stranger' at first when we didn't get a good look at his face, and I was pumped. Too many, close to bald guys.... :(
+Thaal Sinestro I think everything is an hallucination. Josh was pretty calm at first, didn't show anything of his psycho-stuff. But then his plan started to work and Hill's office started to get all dark and creepy just like Josh's mind. Also: apparently there's a voice mail or something or a message about Dr. Hill. I can't remember what it says but it was something about his sessions. Josh was already on the mountains anyway so he couldn't have gone to dr Hill.
*SPOILERS* I believe these hallucinations are the part of Josh's mind that tries to get better. At the beginning he really believes that playing the Game will help him, but as the time goes on he starts having second thoughts. But as he falls deeper and deeper into psychosis, and as his mind deteriorates, so does the part that tries to help him. In the end this part of his psyche starts to openly fight him, recognizing how damaging his Game is for him. And when "Dr. Hill" leaves, that signifies the death of this part of his mind - it can no longer fight the madness, and now only violent hallucinations and regrets are left.
+Siriathion Lol I had a similar hypothesis after playing three times the game : First, we discover Dr Hill through the "sessions" but later in the game we learn he really exists and worry a lot about Joshua's plan and the backfiring consequences via sms. At each session and according to your choices, Dr Hill is shown more inquisitive and less friendly, he even strikes a chord with Joshua at several occasions. Later in the plot we understand Josh suffers from psychosis (with a lot of symptoms hiting at paranoid schizophrenia) altering his perception of reality and supressing his inhibitions. After the discover of his twisted plan, Hill is seen questionning Josh about his morality, his guilt and how his actions has hurted innocent people. Hill's office and the psychiatrist himself are transformed along the way Josh is decompensating. Actually, Dr Hill as he's introduced in the game could be considered as a projection of Josh' s superego trying to refrain him from losing control and coping with his inner sorrow and pain, but without the medicine it's too strong and that's why in the end Josh is assaulted by morbid hallucinations.
His comments about the "game" are so brilliant when you learn he's been talking to/about Josh the whole time, and you think he's talking about you, the player. Also how his tone changes from the beginning, when his view on the "game" is positive and both you and Josh are just getting started, and in the middle of it when he wants you (actually, Josh) to stop and repent.
The first session is probably the only one, the other sessions are Josh's hallucinations. First, Josh thinks he's doing good, but then he starts to regret it slowly and he aknowledges that this "game" isn't good for anybody which is why "Dr. Hill" in his hallucinations starts yelling at him and telling him to stop.
I always got the feeling that the fake Dr. Hill was what was Josh's desire to make sure that no one would be hurt or to stop what he has planned for his former friends, but since Josh kept neglecting that part of him for so long, it resulted into becoming a separate personality where it causes hallucinations and tries to make him stop but then he realized that the other part of himself was beyond saving.
I absolutely loved how they implemented this "analyst" stuff. The way they make you think Dr Hill is talking to you as a player, but in reality he is talking to Josh in Josh' mind.
Judging by the state of the window, I think the first two ones are real, not only the first. In the two of them you see the window normally, like when the station was operative. But in the third one, you see the window sealed, meaning that the station is closed and everyone left, so he can't be anything but a hallucination. Send a powerful message about dangerous patients that should not lose their therapy sessions... congratulations to the scripters for this social message
+Javier Godás I think the second session is in the main hall with the fireplace in the background. Either way I think the first session is already an hallucination, too, as Josh doesn't have any time to go to dr Hill. Wherever his office may be.
He was real. In the game you can find the bill for Josh's therapy sessions. Dr hill signed them at the bottom and everything. The sessions in the game are hallucinations, it's all in Josh's head. He's is visualizing what dr hill would say in his current situation. Sort of like his Conscience telling him that what he's doing is really fucked up, and instead of asking for his friends help. He feels he needs to seek revenge for them sort of killing his sisters.
14:24 *HOLY HELL.* When I did a playthrough of this game for the first time, this literally jumpscared me to Africa. Was not expecting Dr. Hill to do that. I also like the symbolism in the room where Josh is having "therapy sessions" with Dr. Hill. The room goes from looking normal, to being in total disarray- probably symbolizing Josh's mental state, as it slowly breaks down throughout the game. The windows also become boarded up, which could represent that Josh feels trapped inside of himself, feeling that he is to blame for his sisters' deaths, and he has no one to console to about the way he is feeling. Dr. Hill could also be representing Josh's guilty conscience, Josh questioning his decisions, as well as Josh questioning himself- uncertain if his decisions are right or wrong.
Um, I have a theory I would like to share. *"Josh is a reflection of who you are"* (I wish I could come up with snappier wording of it, but this will do.) Please listen to what I have to say :) Now, you watched this video, right? Well, we later find out that "we" are controlling "Josh" in these scenes. Even as Josh becomes isolated and alone in-game, Dr. Hill's office becomes more forest-y and gore-y as time goes by. Also, it is evident that if you start choosing things that Josh's character in-game normally wouldn't choose, then Dr. Hill will start to think you are lying to him. Going back to what Dr. Hill says when we make our choices, Dr. Hill says things like, "...as you continue with your 'game'." or "...the choices you've made". It's seems at first to the player that Dr. Hill is breaking the fourth wall by speaking "directly to you", as if implying that we, the player, is in charge of the characters in the game and should be cautious and mindful about our choices and make sure they all survive. Pretty straightforward. But something seemed a little off to me when the game revealed that Josh was the patient. It blew my mind. I was like, so Josh is...well, me? Then it hit me. The "game" Dr. Hill was referring to was not only about what I was literally playing, but the 'game" Josh was playing (pranking his friends to get back at them for indirectly killing his sisters). So with that, I also gone to the conclusion that the game is trying to imply that you, the player, are psychotic. Just like Josh. Still a bit confused? Put it into this perspective. Our job as the player is to control who lives and who dies. It says so in the description for this game and it's basically the whole focus of the "Choose your path" feature. (Aside from the Butterfly Effect feature) But isn't that a questionable statement all on its own? Josh was doing that, too. By playing this game, you, the player, are putting these seven (eight) characters at risk of dying just because you wanted to play Until Dawn. That was what Josh did--he didn't care that his "game" would possibly kill his friends and put them all at risk. He just wanted to play. Just like you. Trust me, I was a bit freaked out about this. So many people who played Until Dawn disliked Josh because of his mental problems and villain like nature. But to think that the character you didn't like ended up being a reflection of what you are doing. ❤Please give me feedback about my theory! I would really like to know what you think!❤ I liked Josh's character. I may be a bit bias because Rami Malek is my all time favorite actor *ahem*, but I really did like Josh the second he appeared in the game. He was awesomely creepy. :)
I watched in some playthroughs playthroughs that Dr. Hill is all zombified at certain points in the game. Maybe the sanity of the decisions you make as his patient affect him?
3:09 "And what could inspire fear more than the terror of uncertainty?" That was the reason I never played this game until now. I was afraid I would get everyone killed! Compliments to whoever made this!
Every scene with Dr. Hill is awesome! I believe that he was the only thing really protecting Josh from truly losing his shit cuz as soon as he left him that's when Josh really started to lose it! Should have listened to Dr. Hill
Game Theory: Dr. Hill is actually Josh's voice of reason (Conscious) that morphed and took on the form of the good doctor within his psyche, due him being one of the few people Josh explicitly trusts and confides too, attempting to persuade him out of the deviant path Josh carved for himself, resulting in his friends becoming estranged from him as a consequence of his actions. Again simply a theory.
''In our last session, we establish that you have a fear for things that are dead... or undead...'' *bangs on the table* oh sorry did I startle you :) o.O wtf
I for one, would love to have Peter Stormare as my psychiatrist(or therapist, not sure if there is any difference), his voice is so soothing & calming, and his Eyes seems friendly & kind. I(as weird as this sounds since i'm 23) am terrified of making Eye-Contact thanks to my family, but with Peter, i wouldn't have any problem with that.
@@knowledgeanddefense1054 that ain't suppost to happen, we might need to get out of this office and go somewhere safe. I know a little place down by the bay
my most favorite character of all time. He should be involved in other thriller games with the same reputation (psychologist). I want to see more from him
he is, in all these sessions, a figment of josh's inner guilt over his actions. he is the part of josh's consciousness that is formed due to the pent-up guilt he has had over the years. and the scariest thing about dr hill... is that he exists in some form. in all of us. maybe not by that name or appearence, but we all have done things that our subconscious haunts us over. insisting we will NEVER live down what we did or didn't do. guilt is a very real horror that affects us all.
Wouldn't it have been a fascinating development if Josh's madness made him completely invisible to the Wendigos. They are literally a curse; evil nature spirits unleashed upon the mountain. What if they can only detect the flesh/souls of people who actually have a will to live; that those who are tormented by their own lives so badly they want to die or don't know how to live anymore are left alone by the curse to suffer and be denied the release of death.
What’s cool is that when you make a lot of bad choices, dr. Hill will become worse in condition. His psychical appearance goes downhill, unless you make the right choices, leaving him to be fine.
i feel this intense contempt from Hills expressions and manner of speaking. When I first played the game he made me feel relaxed, perhaps because it was a break from the spooky, but watching these clips back, individually, they make me anxious...
Nah he was literally just Josh's psychiatrist after his sisters died and knew about the 'game' he was planning but that was it. Every scene with him in the game is inside Josh's mind except MAYBE the first two, which would make them flashbacks.
You can very briefly see at the beginning of the game that Dr. Hill left several voice messages on Josh’s phone. He is very much a real person who was trying to save Josh (though most of his appearances in game are just hallucinations).
Also draw notice to the name. "Dr.Hill". The whole plot tie in is the Hill. So from this angle every scene is imaginary. Josh is talking literally to the hill.
What Dr. Hill says:"So... how did that picture make you feel? Remember: be honest." The only thing I hear:"I ATE HIS LIVER WITH SOME FAVA BEANS AND A NICE CHIANTI!" Am I the only one?
Wonder if anyone else noticed that he can become infected and Zombie like towards the end of the game. Not sure what causes it, but I'm guessing it's based on how many people are alive. First time I played through 4 people died and in the last few scenes Dr Hill was looking like a zombie. Next time I did it without anyone dying, and he looked fine.
Are you talking about the Wendigo curse? The Wendigo curse can't spread like a zombie infection, you can only get it by resorting to cannibalism and eating human flesh, and then the curse enters the person's body.
I'm talking that in my first okay through Dr Hill (the therapist) slowly become decayed and death like over the course of my game. Not sure if that's due to people dying or it might be because I picked fear of zombies...

In the first cutscene he has the music on " Aria de capo " which is hannibal lecter's Main theme OST from The hannibal lecter tv show ... pretty unsettling to say the least.
I hardly believe the first one was real, as the others are also fake. The scenery as it is implied changes with Josh's position, also quote "next session". If the first one is real, then the others are, yet it won't fit. Josh here is probably in the city, before the winter getaway, as the Dr. also says about his "game". Also, the picture is in fact a postcard found later in the lodge. Remember he was studying psichology in college(must be saying it wrong, still getting around the word "shimmy"). This Dt. is just an imaginary char, some kind of self-subconsious. After all, one of Josh's biggest fear is loneliness, hinting the creation of such char. after the sisters death.
+Adrot Dr. Hill is a real character in the game's world, but I agree that all his appearances through the game's immediate story are delusions in Josh's mind. The doctor was a psychiatrist that Josh had been seeing to help get over his sister's disappearance and presumed deaths. Obviously his mind would create these 'sessions' to help ease his mind and cope, although I doubt it ended up really working. It seems to have created an inner conflict between his yearning for revenge and his guilt over what he's doing; something he simply can't handle which presumably led to his instability.
He calls us the psychopath, but I bet he charges full price for each of those sessions that last only a couple minutes!

The way he explains everything is so calming and respectful until he exposed you as the Killer.
Actually not the killer. He just tortures them emotionally
While indirectly causing their deaths. So while not being a murderer he is definitely guilty of manslaughter.
See...I'm not scared of clowns, but that particular clown scares the fuck out of me

My first memory of Peter Stormares work was him being eaten alive by the compys in The Lost World. He has come a long way.
"You're sick!"
"You're a sick fuck!"
LOL
Lowkey like him as a therapist and would like him as one lmao
my favourite until dawn character
Basically all these sessions with Dr. Hill are pointless since Joshua suffers from Schizophrenia rather than Depression. :P
Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?
I value honesty!
Your insurance doesn’t cover these sessions
HA, OH MY GOOD, YES
20:19 -20:24 Cracks me up. He just sounds so funny when he gets mad. Especially the way his says "turn".
this is what "Until Dawn:Rush of blood" is going to be about like all his fears and insanity in his mind.
his acting is so damn good from 16:17 to 17:08
After watching MatPat's video on this, it's actually kind of amazing to admit that this Dr. Hill was actually MORE helpful than the real one o.n.o
Watching in preparation for THE DARK PICTURES: MAN OF MEDAN
What that gadget called when he wants to calm down Josh at 6:30?
Dávid Holczer I believe that’s a metronome. Its a timing device mostly used for musicians
A little bit of foreshadowing. Dr. Hill’s paintings in his office have Wendigos in them
Therapist when your credit card declines: 16:46
i watch this instead of going to
a real phsycoligist
saves time and money.
Is it just me or is anyone else get ASMR when we get first interviewed with Dr. Hill?
Watching this knowing that this is all from Josh's POV is like....woooooah......
16:10 scared the shit outta me haha
It did for me the first time I watched this
he is, in all these sessions, a figment of josh's inner guilt over his actions. he is the part of josh's consciousness that is formed due to the pent-up guilt he has had over the years.
and the scariest thing about dr hill... is that he exists in some form. in all of us. maybe not by that name or appearence, but we all have done things that our subconscious haunts us over. insisting we will NEVER live down what we did or didn't do.
guilt is a very real horror that affects us all.
Wouldn't it have been a fascinating development if Josh's madness made him completely invisible to the Wendigos.
They are literally a curse; evil nature spirits unleashed upon the mountain. What if they can only detect the flesh/souls of people who actually have a will to live; that those who are tormented by their own lives so badly they want to die or don't know how to live anymore are left alone by the curse to suffer and be denied the release of death.
josh's eyes look so innocent and cool near the end
hey, audio is SUPER out of sync.
+Tucker Mills in one scene...
It still bugs me.
+Tucker Mills so upload it yourself with a perfect sync of every second and stop bitching
+Aras Bajric almost in every scene
+Sander Hanni you must have not watched the entire video then its literally only off in one scene
He ain't writing nothing.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What’s cool is that when you make a lot of bad choices, dr. Hill will become worse in condition. His psychical appearance goes downhill, unless you make the right choices, leaving him to be fine.
he's a very good actor :3
Giời Vịt
yeah
i feel this intense contempt from Hills expressions and manner of speaking. When I first played the game he made me feel relaxed, perhaps because it was a break from the spooky, but watching these clips back, individually, they make me anxious...
easily my favorite character
What if Dr. Hill was employed at the Sanatorium, and was killed and his figure haunts josh for the things he has done?
Nah he was literally just Josh's psychiatrist after his sisters died and knew about the 'game' he was planning but that was it. Every scene with him in the game is inside Josh's mind except MAYBE the first two, which would make them flashbacks.
You can very briefly see at the beginning of the game that Dr. Hill left several voice messages on Josh’s phone. He is very much a real person who was trying to save Josh (though most of his appearances in game are just hallucinations).
He does a weird smile for half a second at the end of each sentence before continuing
Also draw notice to the name. "Dr.Hill". The whole plot tie in is the Hill. So from this angle every scene is imaginary. Josh is talking literally to the hill.
I actually wouldn't having this guy as a therapist...
am i only one who didnt noticed change of the background in the main game?
No, everyone noticed
+Kyle the potato He said he DIDN'T notice, though.
+Michael Cider not originally, I'm pretty sure his comment was edited
no i t wasn't xd
+xraylukas PL okay Xd

The curator really said “Hide the money, there’s poor people around” when he saw Dr. Hill.
I can smell the onions and garlic through the screen when he gets close
Glad to see Abruzzi did something useful after his escape
What Dr. Hill says:"So... how did that picture make you feel? Remember: be honest."
The only thing I hear:"I ATE HIS LIVER WITH SOME FAVA BEANS AND A NICE CHIANTI!"
Am I the only one?
Doccium I think Peter would have done a great job playing that role.
I knew the therapy was fishy when the shrink was the homeless guy from Wilfred.
I started prison break and the guy that played him is in there. It's so interesting watching the live actor act after seeing this game!
Imagine this is Dr Hill ASMR
Phil reminds me of the illusive man. Because they both terrify you with mystery.
I mean Alan, not Phil, sorry typo.
Dr Hill is animated so good....I feel like he is directly talking to me..Good voice acting!
Motion capture
The most unsettling thing about these scenes was how the background gradually and slowly started changing to more disturbing things.
John Abruzzi, anyone ? :D
IKR!!!!!
@@Ace_RJ yep, prison break is my favourite show
❤️
This is my fav character in the game and also the best actor performance of the game and hes also.... so comforting ...
Dr.Hill is the best part of this game in my opinion.
Can’t wait to see him in the remake
This guy plays the devil in Constantine I'm sure. Might be playing it here too. Loves talking to the damned lol
Serious though, would Dr. Hill's method be called incompetent or bad? He seemed very aggressive or something.
Did he just mention the fact of becoming a Wendigo? (19:09)
Wonder if anyone else noticed that he can become infected and Zombie like towards the end of the game. Not sure what causes it, but I'm guessing it's based on how many people are alive. First time I played through 4 people died and in the last few scenes Dr Hill was looking like a zombie. Next time I did it without anyone dying, and he looked fine.
Are you talking about the Wendigo curse? The Wendigo curse can't spread like a zombie infection, you can only get it by resorting to cannibalism and eating human flesh, and then the curse enters the person's body.
I'm talking that in my first okay through Dr Hill (the therapist) slowly become decayed and death like over the course of my game. Not sure if that's due to people dying or it might be because I picked fear of zombies...

It’s because you said you were afraid of zombies.
Damn he is so weird but he is definitely interesting.
In the first cutscene he has the music on " Aria de capo " which is hannibal lecter's Main theme OST from The hannibal lecter tv show ... pretty unsettling to say the least.
I hardly believe the first one was real, as the others are also fake. The scenery as it is implied changes with Josh's position, also quote "next session". If the first one is real, then the others are, yet it won't fit. Josh here is probably in the city, before the winter getaway, as the Dr. also says about his "game". Also, the picture is in fact a postcard found later in the lodge. Remember he was studying psichology in college(must be saying it wrong, still getting around the word "shimmy"). This Dt. is just an imaginary char, some kind of self-subconsious. After all, one of Josh's biggest fear is loneliness, hinting the creation of such char. after the sisters death.
+Adrot
Dr. Hill is a real character in the game's world, but I agree that all his appearances through the game's immediate story are delusions in Josh's mind. The doctor was a psychiatrist that Josh had been seeing to help get over his sister's disappearance and presumed deaths. Obviously his mind would create these 'sessions' to help ease his mind and cope, although I doubt it ended up really working. It seems to have created an inner conflict between his yearning for revenge and his guilt over what he's doing; something he simply can't handle which presumably led to his instability.
Ve want the money Mr.Lebowski,
WE WILL CUT OFF YOUR JOHNSON!
ThePontiacFiero So no funny stuff.
That ending... Was completely fucked up...
When you stop fighting a random person because your tired of him 9:16 he says you stopped because you know I'm right 9:23
poor josh. rami malek and peter are amazing
Am I the only one who sees Lucifer from Constantine when Dr. Hill is talking?
Ya know what..
Dr hill is my favourite psychiatrist from now on
Just cuz he asks you what your scared of and throws it at your face
SUCH GOOD ACTING. SUCH GOOD ANIMATION. YES.
He's got that L.A. Noire twitchy face.
