Alright, guys, follow me on this one. Might be spoiler-ish, but it's nothing major. Just mentioning a character connection between The Room and Silent Hill 2, so if you haven't played The Room, and you're picky about such things then turn back now.

Still here? Okay. I was thinking about it. Now, it's established that Frank Sunderland is James Sunderland's father. No big whoop there. However, I'm thinking about space between the games. James and Mary disappeared before 4.
I'm rambling, but hear me out. Frank kept an umbilical cord in his room for approximately 30 YEARS. In the duration of their relationship, James and Mary must have gone over to his apartment one day. I'm sorry, but upon realizing that that scent of rotted afterbirth was coming from the umbilical cord my father-in-law or father-in-law-to-be kept in his room, I'd be out of there.
Now, you might be thinking, "But Miffles maybe they never went to his apartment." Frank wasn't shy about the chord. He flat out tells Eileen "There are a...lot of strange things in this world... The umbilical cord I keep in a box in my room... Lately, it's started to smell terrible..." Yeah, if Mary and James just had him over for Thanksgiving, or if Frank visited Mary in the hospital, I'm sure that would have slipped out at some point.
You may think it's a stretch for Mary to know, but I think she knew what kind of crazy she was marrying into and just didn't do anything about it.
That's a deal-breaker, honey.
