One similar concept that occurred to me looking at the movie theater hallway is that each door off the hallway opens to an identical endless door lined hallway instead of a theater. There is a way to escape, though, as exactly one door in each hallway goes back to the lobby, but it's completely random for each hallway, which all have a near infinite amount of doors, and you can't go back to try a different door in the last hallway since as soon as you step through the door, it disappears as the new hallway stretches into seeming infinity in both directions.

I find liminal spaces and analogue horror incredibly fascinating in how it affects people. I've started liminal space photography now and I hope to eventually start posting some of it! Artists like Trevor Henderson (creator of siren head) are a big inspiration for the style because he uses unsettling photos as a basis for his horror creations! I love the genre because it takes something usually overlooked or avoided, and turns it into an outlet for imagination and building upon each others ideas. I love the SCP foundation for the same reason

Not nearly as cool as photography but I "make" liminal spaces in my dreams with the magic of either lucid or my mind knowing that it wants something (while not being conscious). My favourite so far is this storage facility crossed with Ikea, with high ceilings and bold blue numbers to mark the area. From clothing to plants, it's really just a high ceilinged Ikea. It then continues into an actual storage facility with cargo, and my favourite area out of there is the cellar or downstairs. Old corridors with yellow tiled flooring. Exposed insulation and visible piping. The corridors and hallways led to these 80's style offices. Yellow floor tiles, curling wallpaper, dusty, ancient yellowed computers and yellow fluerescent buzz of the lights above. Think of Old Aperture in Portal 2. I highly recommend getting into lucid dreaming or something similar. There's norhing more fun or cool about exploring a place that your subconscious mixed with conscious created!

I just had a revelation! The first time I came into contact with liminal spaces wasn't in image-form, it was in a book. It was about a girl that ended up in "special care" in an old school building (basically isolating her because of mental illness). There were two caretakers, probably retired teachers, that lived in the huge school building. The girl thought that she was sent to a boarding school with hundreds of students, but it was just her and the caretakers in the whole building. She was walking around in the whole school building, expecting the building to be full of life around every corner, but... nothing. Completely abandoned/shut down. I won't spoil too much but I can say as much that I had the feeling that the girl was pretty much going insane because of the surroundings. I got that "liminal space" / "backrooms" feeling while reading this book at the age of about 10 or 11, but I didn't have a name for it back then. The book is called "Behind the attic wall" by Sylvia Cassedy for those interested.

The overhang of the tree created a special attention zone when we mowed the yard, but other than that, I could only guess. So I naturally assumed the house had nothing but bathrooms behind every door. And you can't bring it up if you're in there. They know you want to know, but pretend everything is normal.

the backrooms at this point has multiple perspectives on what's canon and what's not due to how large the community is-the backrooms wiki does describe the different kinds of "canon", and they all vary from person to person. personally, i like the completely boundless one because it lets your mind wander and contribute your own pieces too. although a lot of people find that that makes it much less scary, it somehow manages to just make me much more hyperfixated on the topic. also, if you want to cover a backrooms level that dives deep into some lore that might be confusing, you should check out "th3 sh@dy gr3y"!! it kinda unnerved me and i don't often get too unnerved by backrooms levels. this level doesn't feel as much backroomsy as other levels, but there's kind of a reason why. you'll probably know as you look father into it! :)

It's just a diferent way to read the words but interesting to think about nonetheless.

If anybody is also confused by the train featured in this video it's fairly common for lighter commuter trains to be open the whole way because they're built as a set unit and thus can't be separated, This also has the added benefit of letting passengers board faster seeing as they can just step on at any carriage and then wander up and down the train until the find a seat. Larger multiple unit trains do have a similar setup but the tend to have doors separating the carriages but even then multiple unit trains aren't terrible common in the US so there's no shame in being a bit confused by it.

I didn’t dig too much into it myself only that I kept hearing it wrong over and over without looking at the context of it. Thanks brain.

Does anyone rember a video someone made about an older man with dementia that got lost in the employee access tunnels of a huge colossal mall? The poor man saw nothing but "tunnel rooms" for 3 days WITH dementia!! Until he literally died of starvation 😔

9:24 the idea here is that it’s obviously not real but eerily familiar. it seems like something from a dream, in a way. parts of the backrooms are connected to weird/dreamcore in this way. there’s a theory about how the backrooms are trying to recreate reality, so it would make sense for something like this to appear, real-ish but not.

Backrooms creepypasta is about being trapped in Jumanji style simulation videogame and stuck in infinite maps that can glitch you Alive. My theory goes that tech advanced Aliens slaved eldritch beings for maps creation, and trapped Small cosmic Beings for chasing humans. But also there are more NPCs for chasing Humans such as bacteria humanoid, partygoers and glitchings. There are infinite number of NPCs. Those same aliens also created Jumanji as well

The Backrooms has an infinite amount of levels and rooms, the concept alone is amazing, the Backrooms gives opportunity for many creators to add to the concept and yes some will be cringe but I can not wait to see what the Backrooms looks like in 10 years or more

The backrooms are not infinite.

Well, on my opnion the backrooms after 10 years would probably be left behind, and the actual concept of it would Just dissapear replaced with Those crappy daycare entities, well Its concept would be completely changed.

So much about this channel is oddly unsettling but I'm kinda here for it and that personal inclination is also disconcerting. Thanks Greg.

Here, in Washington, before this creepypasta, the backrooms were just laundry/storage rooms that had doors leading to both a garage/basement, and a backyard.

The train at 14:56 probably has articulated cars, which work the same way as articulated buses. They're getting more and more common as time goes by.

15:00 - looks like S-Bahn Hamburg(?), these trains (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB-Baureihe_490) are indeed quite long (we have lots of those multiple unit trains all over the country), but instead of pragmatically snapping in half they came up with gaiters between the wagons so the whole unit can bend nicely and you can even walk from one end to the other! 👌 And it's actually not that long (66m), the ICE trains follow the same principle on 350m length. May look weird if you're only used to those "short single wagon trains" (or whatever they're called), but it works. ^^

Your favorite image, the one with the checkerboard floor and no windows… that’s a room in a Masonic Lodge where Freemasons hold their meetings/rituals, whatever.

My theory all wiki stories aside, is the concept of the initial image was maybe a scene someone saw in a dream, or maybe the backrooms is a real place in another realm of reality where all forms of architecture that has or hasn't existed yet in our plane of reality go to die basically, a limbo for architecture. But i feel like people have been to a form of the backrooms at least once in their dreams. Like once i had a backrooms dream where it was a movie theater but the hallways would never end it seemed and it had a very early 2000s 90s vibe to it and i really felt like i was in that time. Eventually the movie theater hallways did lead somewhere one went to a local movie theater where my family was there and were lined up to see a movie, i ended up going down another hallway which ended in a basketball auditorium which ofc made no sense, and on traveling around again i ended up in a pool room with a pink and blue hue, with vaporwave music faintly playing with an echo in the backround. Very eerie yet comforting and a strong nostalgic feel. The backrooms are a real place, just maybe limited to our dreams..... until maybe we no-clip there one day...

I viewed this video a whole year after It was made. Its quality aged well. The production value of the color change transitioned well into the present.

I actually was at an airport right when it opened up so I was walking through it when it was empty. It was pretty creepy.
