* Why is there a fridge hanging from the ceiling?
** One of the other fathers used a meat cleaver. A fridge would be a good place for a murder-addled mind to conceal the chopped-up remains of his family, including an expecting mother's torso...

* If the voice-over is from the son of the recently murdered family, then why does he sound like a grown-up and not a 10-year old?
** Does it have something to do with the separate realities/selves?
** I think it's the ghost of the murdered son "borrowing" the voice of the radio broadcaster, or possibly possessing the radio broadcaster.

** It's the ghost of a formerly pregnant woman who was killed along with her unborn baby. Given how ghosts are usually portrayed as obsessed and single-minded beings, it's possible that she was trying to ''make another one'' by ''having sex with his corpse''.

** Considering that your character's jacket is already unzipped, that could only mean that zipper sound is from his jeans. [[CripplingCastration That's where Lisa apparently decided to start]].

** She may be chewing on something very sensitive to men.
*** Let's not jump to that right away! I recall Norman Reedus wearing some sort of zip-up overshirt in the final cutscene.
*** The zipper sound is immediately preceded by the sound of a belt buckle unfastening, so it's very easy to reach that conclusion.
*** She is a ghost that brutally lost her baby still in the womb. What are the only things she would be obsessed about in the afterlife? Having revenge and [[{{Squick}} making another child]].
*** Reading that makes me prefer that its just the zip-up shirt theory
* Silent Hill is in America, so why is the clock on 24-hour time?
** Military time. Some military households use it instead of the 12-hour cycle due to being familiar to the folks at home.
*** Also can be used by hospital personnel.

* The spinning eyeballs show up when you [[spoiler: are supposed to look through the hole to the bathroom]]. (According to Jesse Cox)
* At the end of each loop, the player descends the stairs into the cellar, but we never see them come back up. With each loop, the player descends deeper into hell.
* Why the title Silent Hills? Not counting the American Sequels, this would be Silent hill 5 and 5 resembles an S, giving us Silent Hill[ ]s

* It's implied that the [[spoiler:deformed baby-thing in the sink is the fetus of the woman who was mentioned to have been murdered while pregnant]] in the radio broadcast. Indeed, the most probable interpretation of the entire experience is that you are playing as [[spoiler:the ghost of the father who murdered his family and committed suicide, endlessly tormented by his victims]].
** It's supported by the fact there's a bloody wound on the ghost where the ovaries would be.
* It's implied that the player character murdered his wife and kids because his wife became pregnant with the baby of her manager at the store she worked at.
-->'''[[spoiler: Sink Fetus']] Voice''': You got fired, so you drowned your sorrows in booze. She had to get a part-time job working a grocery store cash register. Only reason she could earn a wage at all is the manager liked how she looked in a skirt. You remember, right? ''Exactly ten months back''.
** Note how the voice never says anything about an affair, or that Lisa returned the attraction... her manager may have coerced her into sex by threatening to fire her (and with her husband out of work, she needs to keep the job) or even straight up sexually assaulted her... and then her husband kills her for getting pregnant as a result.
*** Another potential explanation is that beyond her boss saying he was attracted to her, nothing happened. There's the horrible possibility the wife was 100% loyal to him, his boss was clearly a sleaze but that doesn't absolutely mean he made a move on a married woman. the pregnancy really could have been the Husbands all along..... but his clearly disturbed/paranoid mental state led him to murder his wife AND unborn child for no reason at all! there'd be a new layer of tragedy to this whole thing if that was the case.
