The player in a Forsaken Room.

Forsaken Rooms are rooms in Silent Hill: Book of Memories that can change the player's karma. They hold traumatic memories that have been abandoned. These rooms only appear while playing alone, trapping the player temporarily while offering some form of interactive elements. Depending on what kind of action is taken, all rooms will have three possible outcomes symbolized by affinity: Blood, Neutral and Light.

There are seven rooms in the original game, and two will be added after purchasing the Expansion Pack. The first seven appear in set areas early in the game, but all the rooms including the additional two will emerge at random from Zone 22 onward.

Trivia[]

  • The memories of the Forsaken Rooms all belong to a girl named Michelle, albeit in a twisted, darker form. Her diary entries (notes that can be collected upon installing the Expansion Pack) all document them. It was later revealed in the Blood version of the final entry that the journal she had been writing on was also one of the Books.
  • The Woman In The Box can be attacked with no real consequence. It counts as being passive and is actually the easiest way to earn the "Beat Maniac" trophy provided the player prepares the right weapon/s beforehand.
