Silent Hill 2 takes place in the series’ foggy namesake town which is located in the northeastern United States. More than a physical location, the town of Silent Hill serves as a “biblical Limbo” where the protagonists “confront symbols of their inner darkness”. James Sunderland is the protagonist and primary player character of Silent Hill 2, who comes to the town after receiving a letter from his deceased wife Mary. While exploring the town, he encounters Maria, who strongly resembles Mary except for a more provocative personality and clothing; Angela Orosco, a gloomy and cynical 19-year-old young woman who ran away to Silent Hill so she could search for her mother; Eddie Dombrowski, who harbors a darker side to his easy-going personality; and Laura, an eight-year-old girl who seems to have no knowledge of the monsters in the town-players are left unsure if she is real or a hallucination.
