So if you have a HD tv and you want to play on original hardware, you've got a few options. First off just a component to HDMI box which will just get the signal into your HDTV with a reasonable amount of clarity. Here is an example.

The more expensive and much more higher quality options would be upscalers. There are two I would recommend, first off the King of upscaling, the XRGB mini Framemiester. This upscales your image and basically converts the signal from a 480i (interlace) to a 1080p (progressive scan). This works with any retro systems you have and will look amazing and if you were looking to record with a capture card, this will work with pretty much anything. The downsides are the price since it's around 400 USD and the fact that it tends to wash out black and dark colors but unless you have an OLED tv you probably won't notice.
The second option is the Open Source Scan Converter aka the OSSC. This isn't an upscaler per say but it multiplies the number of lines on the screen so works very similarly. This works better with UHDTV's/4KTVs. I have a 4K HDR TV and it works well with mine and I can basically quadruple the amount of lines and it makes everything look amazing on a 4K TV. It also costs much less at roughly 200 USD The downsides are that it doesn't work with every TV so do your research, it also doesn't work with every capture card. I have a TCL 49S405 and an Elgato HD60 (not 60S) capture card and the OSSC works brilliantly with both.
I use a PS2 with an RGB Scart Cable into the OSSC, into my 4k TV. I went with the OSSC because it potentially can look better on 4k tvs and it cost less which worked for me. Sometimes I wish I had a Framemiester because they're just easier to use and I know they're quality but either way you can't go wrong.
Anyways, since you asked, those are probably the BEST ways to experience the SH series on original hardware. Hopefully I helped :) obviously you can tell I'm a big fan of this kinda stuff so let me know what you end up going with! cheers!
BIG EDIT: I totally forgot to add that the XRGB mini Framemeister has problems with the original Silent Hill. SH is one of the few games that changes resolutions between the game and when you open up your menu so there is a bunch of added "lag" between when switch between the actual game which is in 240p and the menu which is in 480i. This problem isn't just with SH but with all games that change resolution. Hopefully that info helps.
