That's awesome. Though I think when it comes to Silent Hill, there's a lot better options than Brookhaven for a list like that.

What about SH1/2/3/Origins/SM's nowhere? That location, although it's never the same and stands for a different meaning for almost every game, is far more memorable IMO.

I agree, "Nowhere" would have seemed a more interesting and, as said, arguably more memorable choice. Nevertheless, yay for Brookhaven Hospital!

I agree as well but I don't think they got the whole Nowhere thing to begin with.

They just assumed: "That hospital is fucked up! I almost shit my pants, and you?" "Yeah, I actually did shit my pants!" *Suddenly Brookhaven is in the list*

True story.

This.

I just feel like it's a really bizarre choice, if you could choose any location from any SH game, too.

Brookhaven is A LOT better place in SH3... Midwich school also could work better...

The best place in SH2 was the prison...

SH 2 Brookhaven was cool but it would've made more sense if they chose SH3 Brookhaven.

Wasn't it the same Brookhaven map for both the games?

Yes, but SH3's Brookhaven had the much better otherworld of the two. Also, you went in to different rooms in the hospital in each of the games.

Not bad, but not really that scary a place compared to other SH places.
If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.
