This Might Be the Trippiest House in Santa Fe

The House of Eternal Return in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a wild place. Open the door to the refrigerator, and step right into another dimension full of secret passages, surreal objects and out-of-this-world experiences. The Seligs used to live in this Victorian mansion, but they disappeared after conducting a forbidden experiment. That’s the backstory behind this 20,000-square-foot immersive art exhibit constructed inside a former bowling alley. It’s the work of Meow Wolf, a group of radical artists who make art with no rules.

Very casual conversation “how do we push the boundaries of our reality?” “And how do we access the chaotic unknown?” Me: very casual Narrarator: very casual indeed

[@alfreddozier832]

Super Casual.

[@ObservantMantis]

Super special snowflake

[@HelloKittySGTC]

The Jokerr says otherwise, and I agree with him. Alittle mischive doesn't hurt anyone.

[@Dark-pr3jj]

Imagine visiting that place on LSD...

[@PsychoGecko89]

Already planning that visit.

[@ansonhu5997]

It would look normally trippy

[@christophernelson272]

You think this place was made without LSD lmao

[@busydior]

Instant death.

[@aubrey8421]

There’s always people tripping balls there..

[@niqchus]

The house gave me the BIGGEST "don't hug me i'm scared " vibes.

[@fommert]

IVE BEEN THERE it used to be a bowling alley but this was way cooler it was awesome, you can just walk in and climb around

[@daylight7135]

So Much wallpaper!!! And Colors! So beautiful!!!

[@hanaday8001]

red velvet rookie 'monster' if you know you know

[@bellatitus]

I was gonna comment this - why is that flower monster in the mv though?

[@giancarloacosta5761]

That place is amazing when we went there and I got lost in there

[@Bengamer-fg4kp]

Who else didnt understand anything

[@ESSBrew]

Im pretty open to new ideas, but after the video ended I was confused,

[@mrd7610]

I didn't get it... But it's ok, It seems very fun! :) It has to be pretty cool to visit! Sometimes we analyse things too much...

[@uekiguy5886]

What on earth did we just watch?

[@paulinafermin9648]

I didn’t understand anything and I’m still confused

[@MantleRains]

I’ve been there before! It’s so trippy and the attention to detail is extraordinary! A lot of it you can interact with. I’d say the best part is the laser harp that is hidden away in a back room.

[@zetsoh6336]

When I entered the room that looks like it's underwater with all the coral(?) I almost ran into that huge mirror the whole place is trippy

[@Michaelmyrers0]

2:23 me walking into the kitchen in the middle of the night

[@jhsounds]

The craziest thing seen in this video is that the refrigerator light stays on when it’s closed.

[@bruh8979]

I went there on a field trip in my art class to learn about stuff and it was trippy as hell (Also there was this mystery story thing that you could figure out with friends. Not sure if you could still do it lol)

[@burntbishcuitt]

Woah, you’re quite lucky!

[@yiasminathefangirl]

that flower creature reminds me of the one in Red Velvet’s Rookie music video❤️

[@vishalhanumegowda6791]

Hello

[@christinan.1596]

I have a hard time liking modern art but this is great, I'd love to visit this house, awesome ideas

[@bruh8979]

You gotta its awesome but a bit pricey if youre not from Santa fe I think

[@jarvis1508]

Just imagine watching *that* scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey here That would be awesome

[@Angeloflight1415_LastelleCrea]

Sweet! Meow Wolf is awesome!!!! I went there last year and it was Awesomely Sweet!!!

[@-CloClo-]

*adds to “places to go before I die” list*

[@stevemalouff5799]

Me and my family went there today and it was so cool 100% recommend going!!

[@vivilonrane1330]

[@NathanJohnson2015]

This looks like a photographers dream spot

[@meliastrickler7561]

I love this place and need to visit as many times as I can!

[@seekorea4923]

Everything on the screen is gorgeous. 1:55 Is this a bigfoot made of flowers? ^^;;;;

[@ymir8599]

Mans home is a LSD trip on its own

[@alfonsoavila7007]

I've been there with my cousins. It's something alright.

[@camit5153]

What I wouldn’t give to film a short movie in that house

[@aick]

Eeee! Met those folks back in the mid oughties! Wonderful people, as well.

[@dizzyroach]

Therapist: Flower man isn't real, he can't hurt you Flower man: 2:30

[@foogriffy]

I have a bucket list of locations in the US I'd like to visit. This is one of them. I've only recently learned how to appreciate art like this. It's very interesting, and very, very entertaining.

[@esa2419]

My sister is going to love this when I show her. Thank you for the chaos, folks 👋🏼

[@domino3139]

Lol what I just got an ad for Great Big Story in this video

[@debragallacher867]

[@1980lizbethcamacho]

[@mordecaigotlost5051]

AAAAAH YES I LOVE MEOW WOLF ITS AMAZING AS A PERSON THAT LIVES IN NEW MEXICO I CAN PRETTY MUCH JUST UP AND SAY HEY LETS GO TO MEOW WOLF HAHAAAA

[@Donikin]

This is such a giant aesthetic house

[@its1ofgodsfreckledbeauties587]

Maybe I won't get it unless I visited. Cool colors, very vibrant. I love color. But I don't get all the other stuff. But it's ok. I don't have to get it for others to understand it and enjoy it. Just have fun in the trippiest home ever, lol

[@royalmaker1171]

2:38~Who saw that? (In the window)

[@panpanea7232]

I think it’s a mirror

[@A.D.D.O.C.D.T]

Saw the title like go on ,yea that was trippy as !

[@namaste91]

Damn,this feels like a Gaspar Noe Film.

[@jobertoli256]

Tacky and Tasteless! I'd had to stay Stone if I live there 24/7 with sunglasses on

[@May-tm4wb]

They didn’t mention the weed room they have. Or “smoke” room.

[@ishaboi6120]

As soon as I saw that kitchen I knew it was meow wolf

[@colinmccormick608]

This is the house from "The Weird Place" by Rooster Teeth. Everyone should give it a watch, it certainly shows off how weird this place really is

[@shippermd]

Is that a movie?

[@colinmccormick608]

@@shippermd show on KZbin

[@ambycakes]

This is the Strangerville pack in Sims and I’m living for it

[@RainbowAych]

I’m a bit confused 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@supaflychik78]

Hawwah A. Haqq me too🤔

[@ChristianRoan]

Yeah, don't get why this is on Great Big.

[@ldeen7142]

Been there when it was first in development, it's pretty cool ya

[@MatthewPalanca]

Saw this on Vagabrothers. So dope!

[@ETR5009]

O heck it's meow wolf

[@josslynmadrigal533]

I’ve been there it’s really interesting and cool

[@Kanal7Indonesia]

thank God i didn't major in art...

[@palomalink746]

Woah I was just there!

[@danielvalle1864]

when u live in santa fe 😳

[@wheels3285]

I'd be more inclined to think this was oh so cool if Meow Wolf didn't have chronic problems with turnover, accusations about harassment, a revolving door of leaders, employee lawsuits, etc. Maybe they should try less chaos and more focus on doing right by their employees?

[@AmorrSummerstorm]

Imagine ending up there while being high or in acid

[@Goldi-Luc]

Ouch. Being in acid...

[@jt6317]

Wow 15% or more thanks geico.

[@danielyap4067]

Achievement hunter!! A weird place!

[@hojo2369]

[@happybeans4960]

[@BlissBatch]

This is the weirdest GEICO ad ever.

[@MiKi-sx3tt]

I felt dizzy just from watch it

[@mariaslimpieza5700]

Boi that house is trippin

[@devkonan]

Nice

[@Whamola]

I went there a few months ago and while the spectacle is fun, the whole place just feels a little dirty. They have monitors where you can watch the animated scenes with headphones that just felt covered in sweat and oils. They kind of give you a path to follow, but they also have a music venue in the back where the hall of tvs were in the video. If there's a band playing they close that whole side down while the band sets up and you just miss out on anything the story may have over there even though as far as I could tell that's near the narrative's ending. And they don't tell you that there's a huge beginning part of the story in the very easy to miss mailbox right after the front door. Of course that's if the info is in there as I found it on the floor by the fish tank room. The only reason I know what it was for was when I gave it to an employee making sure I didn't go to the concert for without paying for that as well they told me where it belonged and asked me to put it back.

[@1yoindigo]

Meh, I worked there for over a year. Widespread nepotism, gender inequality, ageism...if you aren't sleeping with or related to someone, you are treated like garbage. There is currently a lawsuit a bunch of women have started against the CEO. I hope they win. Santa Fe has so many other better things to do and see.

[@lightsoutisay]

Flower Monster, you're late to Coachella.

[@shippermd]

Looks and feels like ya took LSD, without taking LSD! Lol.

[@walkingdub6191]

I’ve been here 2 years ago

[@theghettoreviewer5917]

Imagine being high or on lsd going through here

[@pokyme]

Basically Warhammer.

[@usagi32211]

That's where Ninja Sex Party filmed their video for 'Africa'.

[@goobea]

Boi yyeeeeeeeesss, I was looking for you

[@sicksideworldwide1599]

Acid o'clock here sit back and take a hit of this 5meo 🐸

[@Alisa07l]

Only people who taken ayahuasca or DMT understand the entirety of all this and more.

[@dobypilgrim6160]

The "house" was our bowling alley. I guess it sounds cooler to call it a house. But that is a bit dishonest. Marketing...Oh well...

[@debragallacher867]

Yea it used to be a bowling alley i used to live in santa fe

[@carissa315]

Been there

[@yellowvegtables454]

My sister has been there!
