Centralia/Silent Hill

Centralia, Pennsylvania is the site of a coal fire that has been burning underground since 1962 which led to the town being abandoned in 1984. The fires are still burning and will be for the next 200+ years. Centralia along with the 1999 video game gave inspiration to the 2006 movie adaptation "Silent Hill" which is about a town in West Virginia abandoned due to coal fires and a radical religious cult that unleash a hellish evil. We discuss tonight the parallels & differences between the real Centralia and fictional Silent Hill.
