1. Stuck In Silent Hill - Silent Hill Series
Yes, this final entry might be vague and all-encompassing, but it couldn't be anything else. Being trapped in the horror-filled place that is Silent Hill is one of gaming's most notorious fates, and many people befall it.
Silent Hill is a town that manifests the fears, guilt, and insecurities of those inside it. This titular location traps people among the darkest things inside their heads, essentially making their nightmares come to life, with many of them being entirely unable to escape.
Need some specific examples, let's get you some.
There's Lisa from Silent Hill 1. She died before the first game but found her soul trapped in Silent Hill's Otherworld. She eventually discovers that she is dead and will forever remain in the horrifying town full of monsters, unable to achieve a life of her own. Additionally, there's Angela from Silent Hill 2, who is haunted by her abusive father and trapped inside a burning version of the town.
There are plenty more on top, like Cheryl Mason, Cynthia Velasquez, and Alessa Gillespie, to name a few. Ultimately, if you end up in Silent Hill, you'd be better off dead and gone.
