If you read the book, the story starts out with the line "It was a dark and stormy night...", which may or may not be a deliberate reference the story from the movie Throw Momma From the Train. I think it's likely this was done on purpose since the entire game is shot through with similar references to pop culture.

EDIT: This comment was posted before there was a page view for the book.

This is what the book says:

Page 1:

"One of the most frightening creatures I've ever seen with my own eyes is Tethyr, I've only laid eyes on the beast once, and I count myself lucky beyond belief to have survived!

It was a dark and stormy night. Through the swirling seas and driving rain, the beacon of Theramore’s Lighthouse was barely visible. We did our best to steer toward it. Suddenly, the beast burst from between the waves in front of our ship!”

Page 2:

“The mighty creature’s maw opened wide, tossing bolts of icy water toward our vessel. Those terrible jaws clamped down upon the bow of our ship, tearing it from the hull. Sailors and cargo were thrown violently into the sea as the remnants of the ship disappeared beneath the waves.

The last thing I remember was flying from the broken hull hitting the inky waters, and plunging beneath the waves. The world went dark and I thought for certain I’d drawn my last breath. When I awoke in Theramore’s infirmary, I knew someone had to tell our story.”

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, while trying to prepare for the second task one of the books he looks through is "Dreadful Denizens of the Deep". On my latest re-reading when I came to that it made me think of this. Perhaps it's a reference or perhaps merely a coincidence.
