An old mining town that went up in smoke...
15 months ago
The town is the inspiration for the 1991 cult film Nothing But Trouble, written by Dan Aykroyd.
In the film Silent Hill, the town of Silent Hill has been abandoned due to a prolonged mine fire, which director Christophe Gans says was inspired by Centralia. Aspects of this are shown throughout the movie, such as characters wandering through the misty version of Silent Hill wearing mining gear.
