Line 5:
* In one of the cabins Alan hides in early in the game, there's an odd, circular depression on the bed. It's a possible reference ''[[A Nightmare on Elm Street]]''.
* While hiding in a trailer, Alan makes a reference to ''[[The Shining]]'' when a Taken begins chopping through the door with an axe.
* Half of Barry's dialogue seems to exist simply to deliver (often hilarious) pop culture references, from ''[[Zork]]'' to [[Alfred Hitchcock|Hitchcock]] to referring to a headlamp as his flaming [[The Lord of the Rings|eye of Mordor]]. And all his shoutouts are justified as he's a literary agent; he ''should'' know these things by profession.
* One of the protected local heritage sites is a ancient tree called "[[H.P. Lovecraft|The Great Old One]]."
* The manuscript pages from the Sudden Stop at the start of the second chapter mention a femme fatale, dead loved ones, and painkillers. The voice narrating the pages was none other than ''[[Max Payne (series)|Max Payne]]'' voice actor, James McCaffrey.
