| 4 | It takes place in October of 1966 where a Fermi 1 Nuclear Power Generator lab accident occurs in a nuclear plant under Lake Erie and locals begin vanishing. Investigative reporter Oliver Victor is called to the scene to investigate these strange disappearances but quickly realizes he's trapped himself in an abandoned underground facility hunted down by the complex's hostile mutations. |

| 6 | !!''Erie'' shows examples of: |
| 7 | * ArcSymbol: Black cats. |
| 8 | * AirVentPassageway: And thanks the lord for them. |
| 9 | * FeaturelessProtagonist: Also counting as a SilentProtagonist, all that is known about Oliver is that he's a Red Cross investigator. |
| 10 | * HellIsThatNoise: Unlike most horror games, when the monster is chasing no musical cues occur. All you hear is its eerie and strained shrieks. The creepy pained yells of a dying cat in the background can also confuse gamers. |
| 11 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: Oliver tries to kill the remaining monsters in cryogenic suspension by shutting off their life support; this just ends up waking them all up instead. |
| 12 | * PunBasedTitle: The game takes place under Lake Erie, which is a homophone to "eerie", which means strange or frightening, a perfect description of this game. |
| 13 | * WasOnceAMan: The collectible notes heavily imply the creature is a former human test subject who was mutated as part of some seriously nasty government experiments. |
