YEAHH
haha first eloel
you may be my father but no
Why raid shadow legends
Honestly the most unnerving thing about the Backrooms is that no matter who you are, where you are, or what you are doing, good/bad person - you could just hit your elbow funny and slide sideways through a street lamp and end up in office space purgatory
Yeah it's very Junji Ito in that way. Where yeah the thing that's happening is scary, but the really terrifying thing is how unfair and random it is
That is a really good and creepy way of describing it!
It has arrived

Office is apparently the best place to end up tbf
@@a_donut This! I really feel like all the monsters and almond water and survivor groups are really taking away from the horror of the unfair isolation.
It's an obersaturation I believe was the downfall of both Slenderman and Sirenhead, good alone, horrible when everyone tried to jump on it and make it their own, the curse of the modern folktale.
Imagine being a detective and getting assigned the investigation into the increase in missing persons, only to find zero evidence or perceivable connections between them and your bosses just think you're terrible at your job lmao
Lol that would suck. I'd like to imagine the missing people are from national forests since most of them bodies aren't even recovered. So in that sense the detective could be like yo it's not my fault I can't find them in a vast range of nature. 😂😂
Damn that’s be amazing to watch, a washed up drunk noir detective in the 90s
@@Wetknees Imagine a show where the detective goes on this hunt as a drunk wash-up but is forced through withdrawal once he eventually no-clips into the back rooms himself
@@dylancohen3111 alcohol is one of the few drugs where the withdrawal can kill or permanently disable you. That would be funny "wahh I'm so sad I wanna drink my drunky juice or ima gonna suck me"
And then the detective falls into the backrooms himself
Scary theory: the creature in found footage could only mimic garbled speech patterns because it only came into contact with the 2yo that went missing whereas the creature in pitfalls had come into contact with a teen/adult as evidenced by the shoes in the house.
That's a pretty awful concept
(awful scary not awful bad)
Jesus Christ-
Oh that’s… thats fucking sickening
Now I’m just waiting to have one where it comes into contact with an old man. So it sounds gentle but is hard of hearing
@@stubbystudios9811yes, come closer I can’t hear you 😮
Lol. Suddenly blinking and then you’re driving a car 70 mph through the back rooms is an amazing concept and I love it. Hilarious and horrifying
Multi-room Drifting
@@synexiasaturnds727yearsago7next level tokyo drift
@@platypusparasol9825please start a petition to make this the successor of fast and furious
imagine getting chased by one of the creatures, turning around, and seeing it get absolutely creamed by a car heading 70 mph out of nowhere
I'm just imagining you clip with your car and land on someone who was running to escape a creature and then 3 seconds later you hit the creature and just keep driving to get away from the scene lol
Now that I understand what the backrooms are, you don't even need the creatures/monster(s). The concept of slipping into an empty world where it's just rooms and hallways that seem like the real world, but they're obviously off or very wrong and illogical is extremely scary. Just wandering in this place that makes no sense and possibly never getting out as you're starving and thirsty is a nightmare
Welcome to the DMV Dimension
@@calexander7495 man the Backrooms aren't nearly as scary as the DMV so it's not really comparable.
Or worse- you get thirsty and hungry but never die. So you're destined to roam the backrooms forever, eventually losing your sanity and becoming one of the 'lifeforms' yourself
Not only starving and thirsty, but also being slowly infected by mutated bacteria. The Complex really is a charming place.
@@D-Skotes The DMV is a liminal space. A complex simultaneously built for humans and antithetical to their existence.
The Backrooms is, technically, one of if not THE most visually ambitious horror projects on the platform. I can never tell what's real and what's CG.
Fuck RUclips for not doing anything against these bots
@im calling saul L human being
@@corz299 It’s a bot. It’s an L bot
Just when you think it's real it starts looking cg and when you think it's cg it starts looking real
@@pepperachu exactly! It blurs this brilliant line.
I love Kane's version. Instead of the typical military finding this world, it's this company that just wanted to help humanity but instead opened a portal to our own nightmares.
An infinite office space is definitely a true nightmare.
I think that if we could make a society in the backrooms, it would be an interesting psychology study.
I wanted it to be cosmic horror type
They bit off more than they could chew, which I feel makes it more relatable. We've all had that experience where we say yes to something, only to realize later "Oh shoot, I did not expect it to be like this"
More relatable than military men shoot metal sqwiggly monster in funny yellow rooms
@@prufrock1977I think I that's why I like the first video so much, is that it lingered on the space itself for most of the time where the 'monster' shows up in the end. I feel like an endless maze of a reaccuring thing is more terrifying.
The fact that he was 17 when he made all of this with this MUCH DETAIL still breaks my brain 😭
Right?? I’m surprised this comment isn’t higher up, dude’s basically a kid.
Can't imagine to see how he grow up and come up leading an entire genre of horror film, also can't wait to see what he's gonna do with A24
When Wendigoon began talking about how scary it is to have someone driving a car 70mph normally and then blink and appear into the backrooms while still going 70, little did he know that that was going to be referenced in a video Kane was releasing THE SAME DAY
Unless he did know already lol
I thought the same thing, how perfect was that 😅
The backrooms using synchronicity to let everyone know that it’s a real place and also that cars are real.
@@artOVtrolling that would be some God tier trolling
@@artOVtrolling no way cars are real
This is the definition of “quiet he’s explaining the backrooms lore”
How much cheese?
worst channel on utuber
"this is the definition of..." is usually used as a meme, not a way to speak facts. That's like saying 'this is the definition of forest fire" to a video of firefighters trying to put out a forest fire.
I've watched your videos
how does this have 1k likes but five comments lol
The backrooms always freaked me out cuz when I was little I used to have these weird dreams of the exact same environment of the backrooms. When the backrooms actually officially became a thing I had a bit of an existential crisis over it lol
Dude they feel far too familiar, like liminal stuff feels familiar whatever but like I can smell that shit I’ve been putting off watching this video almost a year now out of fear 😅
Same here. I felt like I was watching something I’ve seen before. Unlocked a memory for sure.
I had this but with bathrooms and locker rooms, it was a real nightmare when the Backrooms became a thin! 😅
I had a nightmare before the back rooms existed.. it was my apartment complex but with furniture and broken items everywhere. I was like 8 at the time now I’m 16. But, as I wondered the complex. This huge 10 foot creature with two sickles for hands makes a nasty gurgling noise before swiping at my head. I woke up and was crying and felt sick afterwards.
I have had several dreams with backrooms-type areas in them. They’re not even always nightmares, sometimes just a brief moment in a drab, dimly-lit corridor. I think that’s why this concept is so terrifying and brilliant. So many of us have been to the backrooms in our dreams. It gives them a kind of reality. This video exploring the concept is also brilliant.
I am a mariner in Alaska. I was working down in the engine room and my phone lost connection. I sat for a little bit and just kept working. Eventually I figured I would see what was going on with my phone. I pull my phone out of my pocket and the screen automatically turns on when I lift it. The first thing I see is the time. Less than a second later I get connection back and the video continues without me doing anything and the first words are "The real horror begins at 3:53 am". Guess what time I was being shown on my lock screen when that audio cut in. I promptly shit my coveralls.
Right here. This is the funniest comment on the video.
thats funny
Wendigoon is such a “I DONT NEED SLEEP, I NEED ANSWERS” kind of guy and I love it cause I’m the same way 😂
Horrible: he arrives with a machete in a school because a teacher allegedly beat his child -ruclips.net/video/S_NPpzuxWzY/видео.html
Omg so edgy
It helps that since he does so much research he gives us the answers and then we can get sleep😂
*_DONT READ MY NAM_*
Even now when a new video dropped after he made his 1:30h video
I think the most terrifying take for the time jump in found footage is that there was no time jump. The backrooms are just so massive that the camera had been falling for five years.
but the camera batteries
@@Justin-gj8kk it's built different

My idea is time is 2x faster in the back rooms
@@02tank the battery would still need to run for like 2.5 years then
Something that always struck me in Pitfalls was “That’s not a person.” “What isn’t?” “That is not a fucking person!”
There’s no reason to explain; the fear in his voice clearly tells that the thing calling out for help was not recognizable like a radio or a speaker, yet it was “not a person.”
The corporations in these online horror stories (backrooms, Mystery Flesh Pit, etc.), really reminds me of that line that Dr. Malcolm says in “Jurassic Park”: “You were so caught in up in whether or not you could, that you didn’t stop to think if you *should* .”
O_O yeah
The fact that Kane did the interview, being purposefully vague, knowing a few days later he'd release found footage #2 is amazing
reminds me on fortnite cause of the way they always say that and then it isnt like what how is that even, its just so cool how EPIC GAMES can really do thing like that and i wish i really could but, sadly i cant and it is really, and i just want it to be like this, like really dude wth this thing is not that its just over there is better like, come on man you know it is to but u always act like it isnt so stop playing these games and exept the truth, herobrine IS REAL and he IS coming for YOUR DIAMONDS so start running cause he will kill anything in his way really seriously this isnt a joke, look behind you its there the masked man, Dream.... is that you.... the man behind the mask..... "I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time." OMG IT REALLY IS YOU DREAM wait you have weird face ...... wut..... its like troll face, u most bee trying to troll me, sigh , dream please stop trying to troll me i really dont know why you are doing this man, i love your videos and stuff and i hit the like and subscribe button, so please dream, just *sigh* stop following me around my house and telling me to " take of my skin" cause i need it to feel stuff and stuff and im not a teddy bear filled with stuffing like stuffing from thanksgiving i dont know why stuffing is even that popular its kinda gross, im so glad they didnt add stuffing to fortnite, on that note, DC recentlly made a movie around the fortnite character the foundation wich is really cool cause i love fortnite i just wish i knew how they put the foundation in real life in the new movie black adam, by the way make sure to like and subscribe plus buy lots of ZOA ENERGY cause that is fortnite foundations favorite drink!!!

Very curious about Skibidi Bop in the backrooms
I think it would be cool if the entities were just like janitors or receptionists. Just average staff who would be in an office building. But similarly to the architecture of the backrooms, they're slightly off, uncanny, inhuman
That would probably make the whole series way more unnerving
So it would essentially be that Infinite Ikea SCP? Now that I think about it, the Backrooms pretty much _is_ the Infinite Ikea.
It turns out that humans are harder to do than bare office space. The axe and forest wallpaper is a similarly garbled attempt to emulate something too far outside the urban template that it has mostly figured out.
@@None-Trick_Ponyone time a group of friends and I took magic mushrooms and got lost inside an ikea 2 hours before closing. It felt like a nightmare 😂 good times good times
30:33 I’ve got a theory. Its probably ‘the backrooms’ for an older time period. The industrial tools turn to an axe and wheelbarrow. The 80s wallpaper becomes 1800’s decorative pieces. Brutalist windows turn tudor. Maybe this is meant to imply that the backrooms, in one state or another, have existed for far longer than previously assumed. Thats also probably why it was dark. No fluorescent lights, you probably only had lanterns and candles to light the way
I also guess the glitchy texture is that same wallpaper, but as if it was harshly cut down the side of the pattern.
I love this idea, and it could be used to explain the different 'levels' of the backrooms; sometimes you're walking through a past iteration, maybe even going into spaces of the future as well.
Well its been said somewhere the arrow of Time in the Backrooms is warped & distorted. So possibly theres a backroom that look like the mythical dark maze that had prisoners run around while a giant humanoid bull like creature chased them.
@@changsangma1915The Labyrinth of Minos is a part of the Backrooms? Hell yeah
Love this !
i love this idea
the idea of a 2 year old being lost in the backrooms is just..... OBSCENELY horrifying to me. imagine how scared and confused that poor baby was
For a 2 yo it would be like being lost anywhere else
@@bioemiliano Yeah, but literally zero people, and probably a visit by a Lifeform.
@@bioemiliano except mommy and daddy wont find him. That kid will be waiting for help that will never come. Trapped forever in an infinite, uncaring, emotionless maze.
Terrifying to even contemplate.
You know what will be even worse? Seeing what Lifeform that baby might become. This small, screeching thing running after you; either because it's scared and wants help or because it's hunting you.
33:41 Microbiologist here, bacillus is a very fast growing bacteria, it’s also a known spore former which could lead to the cough if the spores are being inhaled.
It would be interesting if something about the flow of time just caused bacillus that was already in humans to start even more rapid reproduction. Its common enough that most people have some of it in their system or on their skin even if they are not suffering a disease unless I am mistaken.
@@whitelabratArgument could be that, as a result of the isolation, the bacteria doesn't have any competition against other organisms. Therefore it completely thrives and devastates any organic material it comes into contact with.
@FaithRox hmm I wouldn't be too sure since competition is what drives advancement.
Maybe that’s the internal struggles it seems to have, it seems distressed even before seeing the people with cameras
i suspect the entities may not intend to do harm to visitors given that we never see one actually cause harm. If Kane himself says that he doesn't want his characters to be seen as pure/simple evil then it suggests that their purpose is not to simply stalk and kill other visitors. If they are remnants of former humans then they could be compelled to run after other humans out of excitement, hope or loneliness, but because their form and "voice" is unsettling, we perceive them as threatening. This would explain why the one in pit falls called for help, and although one of them grabbed the cameraman in Found Footage, which appears like an abduction, it did technically save the cameraman from falling to his death.
That……
is a rather interesting…..
and plausible…..
interpretation and perspective on these creatures.
To be fair, until further evidence is found, a definitive conclusion can’t be made. But I ain’t a betting man and that’s a wage I’m NOT definitely making. I’m playing it safe and nope-ing the heck outta there.😱😱😱
If they share simply forces of nature, then they are neither good, nor evil. Their killing is simply their nature
Imagine being a horrifying monster, minding your own business, vibing in your alternate reality on your day off....
When suddenly a car comes crashing through the ceiling
the fact that you said day-off implies (to me and my dumb brain) that this monster is usually working a 9-5 which i find hilarious. but yeah if i was just chilling and a car crashed through my ceiling i would also go apeshit.
@@platypusparasol9825 lmaooo I was thinking about that episode of Powerpuff girls when Mojo decided to take a break from crime and do some self care when the "heroes" break in and start beating his ass for nothing
To add to the time-skipping, the company name “A-SYNC” could be short for *asynchronous* meaning “not existing or occurring at the same time”

Lol I'm not sure what else it could be.
I’m so down for any story that replaces the “evil corporation” trope with a “scientists pursuing science for its own end regardless of the consequences” like this or Jurassic Park, we don’t get enough of those
Doesn't it just become a different flavor of evil though, in the sense of the "ends justify the means". Its the banality of evil, such as the people in charge of Jurassic Park were doing sketchy and unethical cloning of animals with little oversight on a remote island.
@@richpryor9650 Oh yeah of course, I think it’s just a more interesting form of evil because it’s one that a lot of people tend to view as more excusable so it’s cool to see it portrayed in its full terror
>for its own end regardless of the consequences
That is evil though, truly.
@@nickbooze9766 It is evil, I just think it’s more interesting of an evil
Yeah but you can't propagandize the masses against the monetary system which granted them unprecedented luxury, so good luck. There's a reason all "popular" media sucks, it's not just a decade of coincidences
People always give the entities flack, but if you were chilling in your giant corridor house and an unknown humanoid just appeared out of nowhere, you would be pretty violent too.
Do you mean flack? Giving the creature slack would be treating them less critically/harshly.
@@bostonholland3704 Oh sorry typo
@bostonholland3704
Flack / flack means criticism or insult.
For Example:
"Don't give me flack just for doing my job!"
Flack was the correct word to use here
@@rexana_rexana yes I know, the original comment wasn’t flack, but slack.
@bostonholland3704 BRO I Just got it, the comment said slack ORIGINALLY and you were correcting them!!! My bad!
Those lifeforms don't seem to be screaming and growling in anger, they seem to be screaming for help.
Maybe the thing that makes them cough is turning them into these creatures who can't really control themselves but are desperately attempting to hold onto their remaining semblance of humanity.
This further makes sense with 'The Yellow Wallpaper' where the idea is becoming the monster you are trying not to become.
Maybe the more a person panics and tries to leave the backrooms, the deeper and more entwined into it they become.
If the backrooms are some entity's idea of what human structures are supposed to be, wouldn't it make sense if the creatures inside are the same entity's idea of what humans themselves are supposed to be?
That’s why it imitates screams for help, that’s the only human noise it knows.
@@liammcdermott1175 There are also reports of sobbing and weeping, which makes it even more unsettling.
Like how human personalities would look like monsters if we were to see them, or something along those lines from Junigan Psychology
As creepy as these things are, this makes perfect sense!

The pair of floating legs in Motion Detected makes me think that we’re not seeing an “entity”, but instead a regular person who is partially no-clipping into the Backrooms. They probably don’t even realize it and have no clue how close they came to entering a yellow hellscape. Also; the sounds of a crowd that the A-sync researcher heard in the Informational Video could have been the sounds of a real crowd in the real world. Maybe there was a no-clip point near to an actual crowd, and the sound of talking actually made it through the no-clip zone into the Backrooms. I think that’s a pretty cool concept. Also, considering the distortion of time in the complex, who knows WHEN those voices were originating from. It could have been any time period.
What if that feeling you get right before you fall asleep where it feels like you're falling is you partially no-clipping into the backrooms and that's what happened in Motion Detected? Also, i really like your idea of audio no-clipping in as well
@@arthurdailey6681 well I'm not sleeping tonight
@@arthurdailey6681 Pure nightmare fuel. Das gud shit.
@@arthurdailey6681 can’t wait to no-clip tonight
I like your theory. It seems very likely that audio would be able to no-clip as well. I can definitely see that the legs are probably a result of no-clipping too. My theory runs along Wendigoon’s theory in that The Complex is trying to replicate humanity or human society but can’t quite do it right so the creature was trying to replicate a human but couldn’t accurately do so, which could be why the legs were floating, they could’ve formed at its shoulder or something. It probably doesn’t have an accurate idea of human anatomy yet.
Side comment: my hyperfixation as a kid was earthquakes and volcanoes, and I absolutely loved the detail of Async causing the 1989 San Francisco earthquake. That was so cool
Fun tidbit: the body found on Feb. 3rd, 1990/the one examined in Autopsy Report, has a striking resemblance to Nicholas Bolton, one of the people on the posters in Missing Persons. I’m sure if you checked the date he was last seen, there would be some weird time stuff going on 👀
What I think I love the most about Wendigoon is that despite nearly two Million subscribers, he still makes videos that feel personal. When I put on Wendigoon it feels like he's sitting in the room with you and chatting. The passion for the topics is infectious. Thank you Wendigoon. You do great work.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks this XD

He is actually 10, but he doesn't want anyone else to know.
Yes! And he's got such a long life ahead of him and you can see how his content improves with each and every upload. It's so exciting that we get to be a part of his journey and seeing the future content he creates. I can't imagine how amazing it'll be in the future if he's already making extremely high quality content now!
When I first read your comment I thought you said seventy lol and then I heard Kane's voice and was like what?
OMG, the reference to “The Yellow Wallpaper” is an AMAZING fact! The complexity of this series (and of Kane’s imagination and talent) is mind-blowing. Thank you, Wendigoon, for your fascinating, insightful commentary. Do more on The Backrooms, please!
Yeah that's so interesting- also a big part of The Yellow Wallpaper is the protagonist slowly going insane from isolation (she actually *was* "getting help" the whole story, but unfortunately one of the 'cures' of that era was simply having a person (often a woman bc it was a cure for hysteria) lay in bed for a long, long time). Slowly going insane from isolation is what happens to anyone that survives long enough in the Back Rooms
I love The Yellow Wallpaper, it has stuck in my mind ever since reading it almost 2 decades ago, and it’s always fun to see it come up as an inspiration
@@LifesNeverHumDrum @@LifesNeverHumDrum It's a great story. Have you ever read The Feather Pillow (El amohadón de pluma) by Horacio Quiroga? It has similar themes and is a great example of magical realism
@@merchantfanbro put a parenthesis inside of another parenthesis 😭
@@merchantfanwe in the backrooms of grammar rn
there’s several different sources for lore on the original first backroom level but most interestingly what i heard was the entire level is damp. damp carpet, water dripping from the cieling, ect. which is the perfect environment for mold. not only is a bacteria growing, the entire room is mold just behind the walls and under the carpet.
i also had a theory that Async didn’t open a portal to a pocket dimension , they created the dimension with the intent of it being just like the normal world, however it didn’t work. it messed up. the office space was supposed to be a replica of the facility. the town outside was supposed to be the suburbs outside the facility. that’s why everything seems so human but just wrong.
Kane should win some kind of award for his expert use of Blender alone. The environments look so real. Even the sway of the camera looks like it's a real person holding an old Sony camcorder. I don't even think the people are real; I'm pretty sure they're CGI as well. Someone give this kid a trophy! Please!
He made some attack on titan stuff back when the manga ended that is fantastic. All the characters are cgi.
Wait, what? The "live actors" we see are also CGI?

@dilik mli okay, but Kane explicitly confirmed that’s not the case, so it’s not applicable to the story that is happening.
I think its funny that Wendigoon actively noted how crazy it would be to be driving 70mph down a highway and just blink into the complex and kane posts a new episode showing the aftermath of THAT EXACT THING within 24 hours of THIS VERY SAME VIDEO
lmao gotta check that out
Apparently the driver got out and made it to a residential area and tried to nurse their wounds. Enough time passed for them to get desperately hungry, and they started eating the mold...
You keep driving but the highway is empty, leads nowhere and the sky has a creepy yellow tone.
@@nzt1423 Well, no, not exactly. More like, by the time you realize you are no longer on your way to work, you are crashing into the first wall in front of you at 70 mph because you haven't even had time to register wtf is going on or get your foot on the brake.
in found footage 2, I believe the car was the same from the video which it no clipped into the backrooms
I can't wait for Kane to release enough content for Wendi to create a part two, im so enthralled but also so confused, great work on kane's part
its so refreshing to see a content creator who's genuinely, deeply honored by their following and who truly cares about their content. Never change, Isaiah.
I like the Idea that the complex is basically a massive living thing, and the monsters are it's attempt to make an immune system by copping the things invading it.
4-dimensional Mystery Flesh Pit. I like that idea
I'm not sure about that. I still think the Bacteria are just the leftovers of humans who die in the backrooms.
It is a really cool idea but personally I don't think that's what kane is planning for it
I prefer thinking that the complex is a bacteria
Yeah... I disagree because that scenario has already been presented in Mystery Flesh Pit

I’ve watched this video 3 times now and that barn wall gets me every time. It feels like when you’re a kid in a play area and you stray too far from your friends and end up in a dingey part of the play area that clearly nobody goes to, with kids murals on the walls. That freaky sense of being a kid, lost in a seemingly never ending play area, away from all your friends. That horrible feeling of “I’m not supposed to be here”. That barn room is the freakiest thing of the series for me because of the relatability of it. That’s how I imagine it would feel to be in the backrooms
my favorite theory on the entity is that it's the spore-infected motion camera #3, which A: breaks and is never seen again B: is why the wall paint says not to move--it's a motion detecting camera, it can't see you if you don't move
But then it could also be a T-Rex
I love how seriously you take these stories. It's like you're a historian explaining things that have actually happened.
Me too! It's really relaxing.

@@solmoman but the darkwebnet is scary, my mom told me to not go there 😱
Reminds me of when I fell asleep with his videos on Autoplay and woke up to the middle of the Monuments Mythos video, confused and terrified because I had never heard about these scandals in national monuments.
My favorite theory I've seen about the lifeforms is that the fungus grew on the motion detection cameras and turned them into that. It explains the wire mechanical look of them as well as being able to mimic humans speech due to the camras recording it and also the writing on the wall saying "Don't move stay still" since they are motion detection camras.
I was about to comment this. It is one of the most popular theories, I was surprised he didn't acknowledge it.
I kinda agree however Kanes newer video show that the bacteria or fungus/mold thing is also growing off of human bodies, just like the first video
@@boy_with_sleeveless_jacket7951
Mold feeds off organic material, so it makes sense that the creatures will appear near corpses
Great theory!!
what the fuck
If your theory at 47:00 is correct, then we could assume it behaves similarly to SCP 939, especially if the "don't move, stay still" thing applies to the creature. Also I belive the "If anyone blame him" refers to the guy covered in mold, because I think that guy is what started spreading the disease.
I normally can't do horror at all but there is something about ur calm demeanor and utter gorgeousness that forces me to sit thru all of your videos no matter how much I regret it when I go to sleep
As much as I love the trope, the subversion of the "evil corporation exploiting supernatural resource" is _so good._ Async isn't an Anodyne or UAC, they found a pocket dimension and genuinely thought "we can help so many people with this!" It's like discovering plutonium and thinking "now we can heat our cabins without fire!"

What is anodyne?
I just wanted to say: My favorite thing about this series: It's *CLEAR* and *CONCISE.* Kane had one simple concept and built a series around it. It doesn't feel unwieldly or unclear. It knows what it sets out to do, and does it. Not to mention, it has the best production values of any indie RUclips horror I've seen.
irrelevant but i love ur injury reserve pfp
That’s because the concept of the back rooms existed way before Kane made this. He did a great job expanding the universe but unfortunately people are forgetting the og back rooms
yes
@@prostark8445 yea i dont like the idea of countries in the backrooms forming up and the 1 morbillion levels
i haven't heard of og backrooms can you direct me somewhere where i can learn more about it?
aha, I see you're from the dimension where it's spelled "unwieldly" also. do you ever feel homesick for a place that by all accounts never existed?
Reminds me of walking alone through a big city multi level parking garage at 3 a.m. i thought I was being followed. I had myself so wired that I had my pocketknife open in my right hand and my car keys in my left. It was beyond creepy. Nothing happened. I just scared myself silly.
Paranoia is a hell if a drug
The more normal the backrooms try to look, the more unsettling they become. I love it
The scariest episode for me, which ironically also happens to be the most relaxing, was Presentation. The concept of using a pocket dimension as a means of mass storage is a cool idea thats been done before in scifi, but the attempt to use an expansive and winding space for ordinary people to live and work is absolutely terrifying.
And the fact that it could happen in real life is also terrifying
Today was released a new episode, Found footage #2... not the type of terrifying you described but its peak horror. In my opinion his best episode yet...
@@who__cares__ What? Explain your reasoning please.
@higgs bonbon I believe he meant that companies would exploit an extradimensional space to expand human housing instead of just using the space for storage and industry.
The fact they know its dangerous but continue, they've *seen* the monster, the mold and the timey wimey fucky wucky. It scares me.
The major studio A24 picked up Kane just recently to make a major motion picture out of his backrooms videos..kid has a bright future ahead of him.
@@Anonymous-xu2qkthey just won an oscar for best film… lol
@@Anonymous-xu2qk what are you on about? whenever the name a24 pops up it's at least 80-90% guaranteed to be a good film
that’s incredible!! i can’t wait to see what they create!
I'm super hype for this movie
Yikes :/
To me, the backrooms stopped being scary when a monster was added. Just the psychological horror of being trapped in an alternate space that's seemingly occupied and unoccupied also familiar and unfamiliar is scary enough
Idk man that noise is pretty fucked
Yesss the idea of being in an infinite empty space all alone is terrifying. With monsters it seems a lot more tame, like at least I’m not alone.
@@leiahibari its a double edged sword for me, like yeah your not alone, but your also not alone. i think the best middle ground for me at least would be that if there were monsters or whatever in the backrooms, make them a rarity
should've left the "monster" element unseen. Things have been moved in the characters absence. Noises are being made in the distance, or getting closer to the protagonist causing panic. Use the imagination of the viewer to scare them on a personal level more than, "oh, cheap hollywood alien concept from a 2000's movie roaring and rushing the camera"
Yeah the monsters made it feel like a boring old horror movie where a monster chases you but the idea of wandering there all alone is way more terrifying
I laughed out loud at the idea of a car driving at highway speeds through a liminal office space and just crashing through wall after wall
I'm sorry, but the mental image of a Backrooms video being abruptly cut short by the Lifeform getting absolutely *bodied* by a vehicle actually brought me to tears. That has to be the funniest concept I have been presented in a loooong time.
I want to imagine it's like a group of the guys in suits running from one and the one recording turns around to see a station wagon just SLAM into the side of the monster. They all stop cause they're like "what the _fuck_ " and some poor soccer mom like staggers out of the car, uninjured but visibly shaken, and that's it that's the video.
Well, Found Footage #2 exists, so pop on over and find out for yourself. =)
If an entity of a surreal other world gets isekai'd does it do a flip and reincarnate as a human on Earth? 🤔
@@SwirlyPinwheel It would go absolutely crazy since nothing about our world would make sense to it… 😂
And to think that this grand creature was defeated by a _Honda Civic!_ *David Attenborough voice*.
I feel like this is one of the best instances of eldritch horror I've ever seen, because it's one of the few that are subtle enough to actually drive someone insane, rather than just terrify them into a heart attack like a galaxy-sized monster would. Something as simple and "mundane" as realizing your room has more walls than it's supposed to or spotting someone in a crowd for a split second, whose face is upside down. That's the type of shit that slowly chips away at people's sanity, while they try to make sense of it.
omg fr imagine counting the walls in your room and being like “why are there 5 walls in my rectangle room” and counting again and it fixing itself. stuff like that freaks me out sm
The series feels really heavily inspired by House of Leaves, which is basically THE book centering this genre of horror. It’s exhausting to read and super dense and confusing but very worth it, highly recommend
@@alicethemad1613 thank u for the rec!
@@alicethemad1613 Awesome! I'll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.
It always scared me that the description of how one got stuck in the backrooms sounds almost exactly like when I have a seizure, a bad fall in juuuust the right way. I haven't had one in a few years, but it still gives me the creeps if I think too hard about it
now that you say it, yeah i really see it! i have epilepsy, and the other day i had a series of three seizures spaced out by about a half hour or so each. Being perfectly conscious at work, then in a dreamlike state on the floor, then in A&E, then finally fully aware in a hospital bed. felt like i was teleporting, barely conscious despite being able to talk and answer another person. It’s almost beyond description and that really aligns with the vibe of the back rooms
@@mikeystenning1760 and the way sometimes your (well, mine) language center is a bit messy after a seizure doesn't help either. Honestly it wouldn't be a bad concept for a scary movie if done right, sort of like Alice in Wonderland gone very, very wrong
Idk about you guys, but I think there is more evidence to indicate that the random objects throughout the Complex are things from our reality no-clipping into that reality (cars transporting randomly, a dumpster, chairs, even an entire farmhouse being glitched into the rooms.) I dont think the rooms are a creation that some other entity makes to replicate humanity, like Wendigoon says.
Even so, lots of theories to go around with so much mystery and ambiguity in a series like this! Thanks for the video!
Its unsettling that the creature screams un-distorted are things like "no don't go" and "help come back"
The idea that they're just lost back rooms victims who've been there for so long, been deprived of social interaction for so long, that they are BEGGING AND PLEADING is soul crushingly terrifying to me.
The thing about the lifeforms from the Backrooms that I noticed is that, even when they're not moving much and the camera holds relatively steady on them, their bodies kind of morph and alter. It looks like what a 4+-dimensional being would look like if it was intersecting into three dimensions - as it naturally moves, little bits of it slide in and out of our reality. I feel like this has to be an intentional design.
Also, I think the blue chairs might be a little reference to Alantutorial.
Fourth dimensional bacteria… that’s awesome
*_DONT READ MY NAM_*
@Meat Caynon 🅥 Ive just been watching your videos for the past hour! So talented :) I love the way that you take something 'normal' like the guy giving his friend a car and just twist it and make it completely body horror.
Yes, thats what I thought too! Alantutorial is great and so is Wham city comedy. I'd love to meet Alan Resnik so much.
@@Persephone01 that's a bot..
1:15:16 The life forms having something human about them actually makes a lot of sense. The noises they make, the way they move, and the complex itself all have that in common, they’re all not quite human. In fact thats part of the what makes liminal spaces so eerie, a lack of humans.
just as Async is looking into the backrooms and running experiments and trying to make sense of it, its like the backrooms are looking into our world and trying to make sense of it, but in a way that isn't natural or apparent to humanity.
The thought of the space of the backrooms being either infinite or uncomprohensenmbly large and people noclipping into it and never meeting each other because the chance is just too small in this gigantic space is just cosmic.
did you just… cosmic… comedic… bruh 😭
@@chocolate_maned_wolf 🫴?

@@game-enjoyer13 forgive me if I'm wrong but I don't think it's a run on. It's one complete statement, it's just using large adjectives.
the room with the axe, barn, leafy wallpaper, and wheel barrows is probably whatever resulted in the creation of the backroom attempting to generate outside environments. but for some reason not being able to do so, only being able to make associated objects and interiors resembling it.
Someone made a theory that the memories you have make the backrooms or at least the area you no clip into
It still managed to create a street outdoors in "Pitfalls"
Was it really outdoors though? or just a big room with fake stars on the ceiling?
@@ninyaninjabrifsanovichthes45 maybe that area wasn’t generated by the complex and instead made by the company for their housing project. It just got teleported back in time.
@@ninyaninjabrifsanovichthes45 I was thinking the barn was a test while the street was the real deal, the complex learning and adapting
Honestly i would love to have a follow up to this where you talk about your theories with the newer videos! So excited for Kane getting the movie project 😁
i had found this channel in my horror phase when he had like 2 patroners and maybe 10k subs i watched him grow into 100k before i stopped watching's horror things , now seeing how far this guy has gone is really cool. i know from the first video made he was going somewhere. weirdly proud of him this stranger its inspiring.
the crazy thing about this whole series is that literally EVERYTHING is cg. the entire thing is a motiontracked render. the vhs style video quality both adds to the atmosphere and hides a lot of the imperfections in the cg
well, what about the live action footage?
@@davidbanan. i meant the backrooms footage from the first found footage video. idk why i said series i havent even seen the rest of it yet

@@WhitneyDahlin it just shows what creativity and time can do. You can see the passion in his work

Dude ur so cool. My best mate put me on your videos after I started watching other horrortubers like Nexpo. Your personality is honest, to the point but entertaining and friendly. You put in a ton of work and it’s incredibly impressive. Keep up the great work dude. A future long-time sub here!
i’d love to see you do an update on this series!! not sure if it’s finished but there has been so much more cool lore added since this video.
By far the scariest thing about the backrooms to me is just how big it is. The fact that it dwarfs our entire planet, is absolutely horrifying. If you wound up stuck inside them, no one could ever find you, just due to the monstrous size of the labyrinth.
and all these other “levels” of the bacnrooms
you would enjoy reading “house of leaves”
The backrooms are so big that not only do they dwarf our planet, they dwarf the ENTIRE orbit of jupiter, and its only around 200 million miles smaller than Saturn's orbit. Hell the backrooms are so big that they can be measured in Astromical Units rather than miles or kilometers. And thats only level 0
@@crystalcountach7253 it should be measured in units squared (not just one dimension; it’s a 2D floor area)
You could maybe Track people through their heat radiation, but this is assuming the entities are cold and the measuerent has its fixed ranges
As a person who struggles with horror these "explanation" type videos help me a lot. Hearing the voice in the background and knowing that Wendigoon will return to the screen comforts me
I know the horror RUclipsrs tell me to watch the original but I'm too chicken so I just watch the explanations instead.
@@AlexLJ55 That's a damn mood...
Especially when he says something along the lines of “you’ve been brave” I’m always like “yeah I am brave! For sure not brave enough to watch the original content though”
I also like how he explains what happened in the video instead of showing us so I'm still intrigued to watch the originals. In a way, its like a original content creator friendly approach to it.
Haha! Same. I’ve never watched the Walton Files, but watched a couple explanation vids
I love this, the backrooms are terrifying and I love it. You're whole breakdown is fantastic. I'm just burning through a bunch of your videos while I "work", and I'm having a great time.
The yellow wallpaper is so so important to the way the back rooms feel I love love love that short story
I love the story The Yellow Wallpaper! The author Charolette Perkins Gilman was actually prescribed something known as “the rest cure” which basically meant she was confined to her home with little to no outside interaction and no activity such as reading or writing but it encouraged getting fresh air and sunlight. The story is about a woman who had been prescribed this “cure” by her husband who is a physician and they are staying in an old mansion and she is in a room that she absolutely hates due to the yellow colored wallpaper. She has been told that she is severely anxious and she appears to have a sort of postpartum depression because she mentions how she is afraid of being alone with her child. By the end of the story we can see her slow decent into madness as she begins so see an image of a woman trying to escape from the wallpaper and she thinks that her husband has been trying to get her out as well. It’s a great short story and I highly recommend reading it.
Yes, it IS horrifying . You never are sure if the husband is evil, or if he really IS trying to help her.
I read it in 11th grade English class
isn't that because of walls were actually covered in poison? I remember a video about a book and some paint that were affected the mind of people, women in particular
@@Gotten1888 from today’s perspective it could be because of more knowledge of things like asbestos and lead paint but at the time was written it wasn’t known. the author talked about how the rest cure drove her mad bc of the lack of autonomy people were left with. so in theory it could be a type of poison but in my interpretation it’s psychosis.

Hey Wendigoon, some more evidence of the time skips is in pitfalls, when he’s walking through the hallway to where he finds the backpack, the microphone glitches and you can hear the song “kids” by MGMT play over the microphone. However the song was released in 2007 and this takes place in 1990
Yo 🔥ruclips.net/video/rdJ9bsN7JAw/видео.html..
I believe there’s also an audio recording regarding Fidel Castro and Cuba making amends with the US. This took place in 2015
Also, in the same general area (in the room with the chair) you can hear some audio in the background what is from an interview in the 2000's when the US had just normalized relations with Cuba and the reporter is asking if Castro would visit the President.
If you watch the music video for that song it starts with the mark Twain quote about turning into a monster if you spend time with them, kinda supports the people turning into monsters theory

We need a part two!! This was dope! and there's more footage to be covered. 10/10!
I imagine there is a giant warehouse section full of the things we lost and never found again, like a lego that fell and seemed to vanish, or a sewing needle, it all ends up in a warehouse in the backrooms

One thing that he did not mention:
In the video “Pitfalls”, there’s Blue Chairs among the equipments on the floor on the decrepit room. This references Alantutorial, whose web series consistently features a blue chair as a way to communicate emotions metaphorically.
He said that he wasn’t talking about the wild fandom side of the back rooms just this back rooms they have different lore it was probably just a nod to the other side of the fanbase
@@Fallen-gryphon
It is more of an Easter egg reference.
OOOOH I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT
How did I know instantly the moment I saw blue chair
the backrooms and photos of weird liminal spaces freak me out in a weird way that attracts me to them at the same time because they give me this sense of nostalgia for something I can't remember or haven't actually experienced
oh you know damn well Kane LOVED annihilation. the corpse in the blast pattern mould? that has to be inspired it has to
I think the most horrifying part of the original backrooms is that there is literally no hope for you. There's no organization that has access to it using a portal, there's no other levels you can jump to that are safer, you're literally just dead on arrival, forgotten by the world in a place no one even knows about
Nah just quit and reload ur save and ur good
True....I think the Backroom starts to lose it's magic once there's too many lores formed behind it with monsters, organizations etc. I think it works best on it's simplicity. I still remembered when the first time I watched Solar Sands covered the video about Liminal Spaces. The images shown were still some of the pics that unsettles me to this day.
@@freddice8156 Agreed! I think it's cool that some people like all the Backrooms lore, but for me, when you get too far into "This is level 84, and it is a giant motel that is exactly 696,420 square miles. Entities include facelings, fingerlings, hounds, and snarfers. Each motel room has a refrigerator that can be stocked with exactly 7 bottles of almond water. Exiting this level can only be done by jumping on the correct spot of certain beds, etc." type stuff, all the mystery and intrigue is gone.
@@freddice8156 Humans like to compartmentalize ambiguous and difficult to explain things. The "lore" that has built up reads more like a D&D system or a videogame dungeon. Too easily explained. Too easily dismissed. Too easily categorized. I vastly prefer Kane's interpretation. An infinite, procedurally generated maze dimension of confining, semi-recognizable things and places.
@@freddice8156 Yes! I always found the backrooms much freakier when there was no monster. I frankly think the reason people started talking about a monster in the backrooms is to in a sense make it less scary. Being trapped in an unknown place WITH a monster in it is a concept that is much more familiar to people. As opposed to a place that just goes on endlessly, with no change, and no life besides you. But that doesn't make good lore, but it's much better at striking dread into people.
I passed out with this video on and had the most insane dream of my life, thanks wendigoon
That’s always fun.

@Resident Lesbian I forgot most it by now, I only remember the vague outline, it started out with me in 50s sitcoms esque house, there was a knock at the door, when I opened it I was in the backrooms but I wasn't fazed by it whatsoever I just walked until I found the creature, we talked and then it rapidly devolved into sci-fi madness
Hahaha no frigging way. Exact same thing happened to me today wtf
You're probably the most wholesome horror youtuber out there. Thanks for making videos dude
The Backrooms in general has a very engaged community. What I respect about it is how someone in the community has one theory and idea about The Backrooms and everyone jumps in to add to that theory and praise/respect it. Everyone is actually fairly encouraging and respectful.
There's something so dystopian and cynical about discovering a new dimension that breaks all laws of physics, completely changing all understanding of reality and being like "yeah, let's put McDonald's in there"
Almost as bad as putting it in the throat of an underground monster lmao
yeah been this world some decades, and i have read so much fiction that has became reality that yeah, at this point i think that this will be possible in 2055
Bags of holding have to be developed at some point!
Welcome to capitalism.
But also it's kind of natural to seek a way of how this thing can practically benefit humanity apart from studying the science of it.
Everybody is scared of AI but at this point it's very helpful and we find actual use out of what AI creates.
in my opinion the backrooms was far more scary and original before a million levels were added and entities were added. the true horror of the backrooms was the face that you were alone and had no escape. there were always hints of there being SOMETHING in the backrooms with you, but the fact that nobody knew what it looked like or if it was even really there was far scarier
So true
Like,I watched a lot of videos explaining Backrooms levels and so many of them are just like "to enter-do this,this and that,but we do not recommend to go there".And I'm like what the heck happened to the idea that you can fall into this place RANDOMLY?
To me,Backrooms now are more like a travel guide or some sort of a theme park that you can attend in case you have nothing better to do.
Somewhere deep inside I hope that after some time of this bs some criteria will be created for Backrooms and most of the levels would be just re-written or deleted along with all the elements of comfort like almond water,wi-fi and people.
as with most things, tiktok ruined it trying to elaborate the lore
i think that the KNOWLEDGE of millions of levels makes the backrooms scarier, but as soon as people started to make the rooms, then it got way less scary. one of the scariest parts of the backrooms is how little you know about the backrooms.
@@peppernytsia This is why many people don't consider anything past the first 9 levels (or even level 0) as canon.

As a fan who does repeat watches of your videos, this raid ad always fucks my day up in the best way. God bless you dude.
There is something so fascinating about the format of the endless maze to nowhere. Definitely the nostalgia for a place you have never been. It reminds me of that old screen saver on Windows 95/98 of the endless brick maze where as far as I can remember, there was sometimes a random rat? Anyone else remember this lol
I thought of that too. You could add your own textures to the walls in the settings, it'd be cool to see it with the yellow wallpaper.
The Backrooms reminds me of AI image generators... a computer program that's trying to mimic human ideas but sometimes creates things that fall into the uncanny valley.
The repeating but shifting features gave me that vibe. AI always looks to me like it's trying to play Exquisite Corpse with itself and gets caught in a feedback loop.
I kind of had the same idea as this but I extended it to the creatures in the complex, cause it doesn't look like an animal, it stands on 2 legs and has "limbs" and maybe even a head (I can't really tell). So either the creatures are people that got mutated by the disease or they were created by whatever created the complex
He talks about just that in the video lol
I know I’m in the minority for it, but I’ve always felt that being alone in the backrooms is scarier than being with a monster. Idk, the endless isolation without even the chance of pain or death seems scarier to me
Im not sure as both are terrifying to me but yeah I think that it would be harder without them however with how this story is the monster is better
I don’t understand how anyone can think this because eventually you realise you’re alone. A place that looks like a creepy hotel.. scary sure but I’m alone. A place that looks like a creepy hotel but there’s entities that will actively hunt and kill you? Way scarier. I do like isolation tho
@@emmuzboosh imagine being completely alone and without any interaction with another living thing for several years.
@@emmuzboosh Okay what if you were stuck there for all eternity, in complete isolation, just you and the infinite torture of the Backrooms. Humans cannot function without another human being no matter how much you say you're introverted.
