The Series Spawned Two Films
In case you didn’t know the Silent Hill series spawned two films titled Silent Hill (2006) and Silent Hill: Revelation (2012), both starring the actor who holds the distinction of dying in nearly every film he stars in – Sean Bean. Fortunately Bean makes it through both these films. Both the films have a plot similar to the games but differ in several aspects. The first film did decently well, but the second one was panned by critics and holds a 5% rating on Rotten Tomatoes which symbolizes just how bad it was.
Silent Hill Takes Inspiration From The Ghost Town Centralia
Silent Hill was inspired by many different towns the main one being Centralia situated in the state of Pennsylvania. Centralia is a ghost town whose residents abandoned it because of a coal fire back in 1962. The town now has just 7 residents and is now classified as a ‘ghost town’. However even though it’s a ghost town it isn’t populated by a secret cult or have any monsters roaming the street, so all you Silent Hill geeks can pay it a visit on your next trip to the States.
