Get the Rusted Key from Pete's Bowl-o-Rama

Head over to Pete's Bowl-o-Rama in Western South Vale. Find the safe behind the counter and enter the code 1887. Pick up the Rusted Key found inside the safe.

This should be done before going to Jacks Inn since Pete's Bowl-o-Rama will become inaccessible later on. The safe inside the bowling alley will only show up on a New Game Plus playthrough.

Rusted Key Location and How to Use

Get the Small Chest in Brookhaven Hospital

Go to the garden in Brookhaven Hospital and look for the gazebo. Inside, you can pick up a small chest that doesn't appear on a normal playthrough. Use the Rusted Key on the chest and to collect the bottle of White Claudia.

Drink the White Claudia in Room 312

When you get to Room 312 in Lakeview Hotel, drink the White Claudia before watching the tape. This is where the story will end, skipping the final boss encounter.

What is the Bliss Ending?

James Never Knew the Truth of Mary's Death

For the Bliss ending, it is implied that James saw happy vacation clips of him and Mary on the TV rather than the tapes revealing him the truth surrounding Mary's death.

This is most likely because of the White Claudia he drank - known to be a powerful hallucinogen in the Silent Hill universe. The drug messed up what he's seeing on TV that he never knew he himself was the one who killed Mary. Ignorance is bliss, indeed.
