This caused ground to get extremely hot and it shifted the land around so that houses and such were wobbling all over the place. Most of it has been bulldozed but there are still a few residents holding out. However, they are not allowed to sell their property or pass it down to anyone. --- "Beef is when I quote you, guaranteed to break the TOU." -The Notorious Shablagoo <cite>EzeDoesIt posted [p:945812743] in Did you kn...

--Zero- 10/13/20 3:31:33 PM #3:	It's neat at first to see the graffiti highway, but overall there's nothing special about it today to see. It's a small highway that's filled with people's chalk writings and then all forestry and once in a while you'll come across a torn down house. It's so torn down you can see just the floor and a couch. Nothing else remains really out there. There's a small cemetery too. It's not at all what you would expect. --- SIGNATURE <cite>--Zero- posted [p:945812894] in Did you kn...

Went back home in July and seen that they put like a 15ft a fence up around the thing for safety and vagrant reasons. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/198641-silent-hill/68249338 --- The Evil Republicans - Est.2004 - WoT [Government Destabilizing Branch] <cite>PrettyBoyFloyd posted [p:945815130] in Did you kn...
