  A liminal space is kinda like describing a dog and then getting someone to draw it.....

  It's weird to think that, while these places are "taken out of context", they will inevitably become those places. An office will get shutdown, and you get places like the backrooms. Arcades will shut down and you get these images. Leaves me overwhelmed personally.

  it's like ruins if they were in perfect condition. Unsettling and lonely.

  I feel like they are like corpses. They used to be filled with life, movement, and potential. Now they are just a dead body left behind as the life moves on.

  These photos make me feel like I was left behind in an evacuation. Everyone is gone, only for me to still be here in places I shouldn’t. I was abandoned and while I may explore, I don’t want to.

  I watched the Backrooms movie yesterday and I felt compelled to come back to this video. As much as I enjoyed the movie, I find that the original unfantastical appeal of liminal spaces to be much more interesting then what they are today. To this day this is by far the best video on backrooms/Liminal spaces I have ever seen and captures what they are about perfectly, about both distortion and familiarity. I get the need to put entities in them, but I feel like the true horror of Backrooms is a total isolation. That wouldn&apos;t make for a very interesting movie though.

  As long as I&apos;m not in fullscreen, nothing can hurt me

  Imo, the wierdest ones are the rooms that are lit in a way that everything is the exact same brightness. Those ones make my brain say, &quot;Whoa, this shouldn&apos;t be possible.&quot; Those ones are <i>it.</i>
