How to unlock the Hush, Hush Now achievement in Dying Light - Definitive Guide
Side note: I actually got this before that story mission, I was messing around in the second area you go to, and it was there. So it's possible to get it before you're officially introduced, but I believe you HAVE to be in the second area, as I have not seen one in the first area.
I found this before the main quest where you have to go into the apartment complex that introduces you to them.
Edit: this can also be completed prior to the main storyline mission in the apartments. It is found in the north west of the Old town map.
They are a child like enemy that screams out and attracts other zombies. You need to walk up to them and press when prompted to quiet them. My video below shows this from later in the story.
I haven't seen one outside the main story yet, please comment below if you have.
These enemies are babies, and they don't show up until after you reach the second area of the game, Old Town. As you complete main missions and side quests, you will almost unavoidably come across multiple Screamers. The game cues you in to their presence by the sound of them crying. Quickly make your way over to the Screamer and tap to cover its mouth, silencing it and unlocking the achievement. Take note that its screams will draw in many other zombies, so be prepared.
You will first encounter a screamer during the main quest, "Public Face". A screamer looks like a child and it screams to attract other zombies, but its screams can also hurt and eventually kill you. Whenever you run into a screamer, either use a gun to kill it immediately or walk towards it and kill it instantly by pressing to put it to sleep. This trophy will most likely come naturally though, as you will kill one unless you run away from it. If you did miss one then you will have another chance later on in another quest called "Broadcast", where you have to kill a screamer in order to progress through the quest. The trophy will unlock as soon as you kill your first screamer.
