Still can’t get over the fact that The Backrooms made liminal horror “mainstream” while also completely misrepresenting the genre, ditching the subtle, melancholic sense of unease for a bloated SCP clone with edgy shadow monsters.
I personally find this to be a much better take on a similar premise:
No jumpscares. No monsters. Just an eerie, dreamlike sense of being lost in a completely desolate, sprawling brutalist hellscape.
There’s something so unnerving about architecture that has the aesthetic of being man-made, while also realizing that nothing about these buildings would be of any practical human use.
I think what makes this video so unnerving for me is that, after a while, you stop seeing any “dry land”. Everywhere the viewer goes, the floor is submerged in at least a couple feet of water. There’s no place to sit and rest, let alone lie down and sleep, so you’re forced to keep on wading through all this cold water for who knows how long until you find someplace above the water once again. And even if you manage to find that, nothing here was designed for human comfort. Unlike an actual pool room, there are no benches or chairs, just flat, hard ceramic tiles, no doubt cold and wet as well if only from the water that’s no doubt dripping off of you. And between all that wading, the weight of your sopping wet clothes, and slowly choking on the humid, chlorine-saturated air, exploring The Poolrooms has got to be exhausting.


no offense but I’d be so much better than you at exploring the poolrooms. catch me and the girlies having a snooze in our inflatable pool mattresses. We brought spray paint to mark our way back. Kelly brought some Mai Tais. we’re having a blast.
