Family Vacation is a series of echo messages that Harry Mason can receive in Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. They may vary according to the player's Psych Profile. They can be found at a vacation cabin in Silent Hill's outskirts, deep within the Caldecotte Woods, halfway into a Nightmare sequence.
Listening to the message carefully will help the player on how to solve the Toy Piano Puzzle and thus progress further into the game.
Part 1[]
Variation 1:[]
- Woman: I'm on the phone, dammit! Yeah, I'm taking us back early. This is not my idea of fun.
Little girl: Mom!
Woman: Not now! I'm on the phone!
Little girl: Mommy! (Quack!) (Hoot!) (Squawk!) (Squawk!) (Cluck!)
Woman: Shh! Go show your Daddy. This whole trip was a bad idea. It's making me crazy. Nothing but trees, logs and my family. I'm trapped. Feel like I'm suffocating in here, Diane.
Little girl: [music plays] I won! Mom, I won!
Woman: Shut up! Or I'll smash that stupid thing! Give me a minute, Diane.
Variation 2:[]
- Woman: I'm on the phone! Yeah, I'm coming back early. This was a stupid idea.
Little girl: Mom!
Woman: Not now, honey, Mommy's on the phone. Get out of bed, play with your daughter!
Little girl: Mommy! (Quack!) (Hoot!) (Squawk!) (Squawk!) (Cluck!)
Woman: Shush. Go show Daddy. This whole trip was a bad idea. A week picnicking and cycling... like, that's going to make it right? I'm still hurting, this feels fake. I don't want to be with him.
Little girl: [music plays] I won! Mom, I won!
Woman: Alright! In a minute! Give me a second, Diane.
Variation 3:[]
- Woman: I'm on the phone! Yeah, I'm coming back early. This isn't working out.
Little girl: Mom!
Woman: Not now, honey, Mommy's on the phone. Put your damn drink down and look after her!
Little girl: Mommy! (Quack!) (Hoot!) (Squawk!) (Squawk!) (Cluck!)
Woman: Shush. Go show Daddy. This whole trip was a bad idea. He's not better here. Worse if anything. I can't put up with it anymore.
Little girl: [music plays] I won! Mom, I won!
Woman: Alright! In a minute! Give me a second, Diane.
Variation 4:[]
- Woman: I'm on the phone! Yeah, we're coming back early. This isn't working out.
Little girl: Mom!
Woman: Not now, honey, Mommy's on the phone. Can't you look after her?
Little girl: Mommy! (Quack!) (Hoot!) (Squawk!) (Squawk!) (Cluck!)
Woman: Shush. Go show Daddy. This whole trip was a bad idea. I knew that before we even came, but I went along. The last thing we needed was time alone together.
Little girl: [music plays] I won! Mom, I won!
Woman: Alright! In a minute! Diane, hold on for a second.

Variation 3:[]
- Woman: I know, that's the problem, Diane.

Woman: What was that?
