 |  | Silent Hill
< on 7/24/2006 6:12 PM >
|  | | | I've been meaning to post this for a while now. The Silent Hill movie that came out, where are the sites that they filmed in? Preferably that school? I know they filmed in the Lister (because I live a few blocks away) but I was interested in checking out the places they filmed in. Can anyone help me out?

The concept of the town that has been burning for years underground that is portrayed in the film is based on a real town that has been burning for the last 30 years and more and should still be burning for another 100 years at least.
Pretty easy to find out. Of course, in the real town, there's no zombies but the gases coming from underground will kill ya.
Pretty easy to find. Please there's already been tons of threads on UER on that topic.
That town is in the UEDB.

| | | | I have a suspicion that the huge factory scene was filmed in the Studebaker/Otis elevator plant in Hamilton but really I don't know for sure. The Grand Hotel was quite obviously Lister Block.
Apparently the abandoned town scenes were a part of Brantford. I've never actually seen them in real life however.

| | | | Its on Victoria St., just a bit South of Burlington St. There are active portions of it however, so I'd consider it rather high risk. I don't know which parts are alright to enter. I've never gained entry.

-Lister Block in Hamilton
-One of the main streets in Brantford. I have some pics somewhere.
-And up at The Devils' punchbowl in Stoney Creek/Hamilton.
The Silent hill Sign That Is in the movie was actually set up on Ridge road.

Hmm, still not familiar with it. May have to scope it out.
Flash, I know about them filming in the Lister because it was right around when I kept trying to get in but my plans were foiled because of the movie being filmed. And anyone from Hamilton can easily recognize the Devil's punchbowl. So I am at least familiar with those spots.

Not sure what was filmed at Alma College. It's been a while since I've seen Silent Hill, I just read somewhere that they filmed here. Shoot location or not, it's still gorgeous.

Centralia, Pennsylvania
The story began sometime in 1962 along the outskirts of town when trash was burned in the pit of an abandoned strip mine, which connected to a coal vein running near the surface. The burning trash caught the exposed vein of coal on fire.
The fire was thought to be extinguished but it apparently wasn't when it erupted in the pit a few days later. Again the fire was doused with water for hours and thought to be out. But it wasn't. The coal then began to burn underground. That was in 1962. For the next two decades, workers battled the fire, flushing the mines with water and fly ash, excavated the burning material and dug trenches, backfilled, drilling again and again in an attempt to find the boundaries of the fire and plan to put the fire out or at least contain it. All efforts failed to do either as government officials delayed to take any real action to save the village.
By the early 1980s the fire had affected approximately 200 acres and homes had to be abandoned as carbon monoxide levels reached life threatening levels. An engineering study concluded in 1983 that the fire could burn for another century or even more and "could conceivably spread over an area of approximately 3,700 acres." As time passed, each feeble attempt to do anything to stop the fire or help the residents of Centralia would cost more and more due to the fires progression.
Over 44 years and 40 million dollars later the fire still burns through old coal mines and veins under the town and the surrounding hillsides on several fronts. The fire, smoke, fumes and toxic gases that came up through the back yards, basements and streets of Centralia literally ripped the town apart. Most of the homes were condemned and residents were relocated over the years with grants from the federal government although some die-hards refused to be bought out and some still remain in the town.
Today Centralia is a virtual ghost town with only a few remaining residents. As they continue to live in their beloved homes now owned by the federal government, people pass every day along Route 61, most totally unaware of the history surrounding them and the sad story of Centralia. Studies have shown that if the fire is not contained it will continue to spread following the rich coal deposits and eventually threaten the neighboring town of Ashland, less that two miles away.
