21:24 This is such a fantastic way to summarize what’s at the core of ALL liminal spaces. Sometimes it’s so difficult to describe. Also, I absolutely loved how you played the previews of each level with eerie music and no talking. Great atmosphere, intentional or not!
The KC image is from an art gallery that was in Valley View mall in Dallas, Texas! I saw it back in 2016 and took a picture of it up close, which I can email it to you if you'd like. It was a dead mall at that point and it's since been demolished. It's so cool to see a place that I would regularly go to mentioned in a video!
I feel like the old Tomb Raider games had some of the creepiest liminal spaces ever conceived. Whenever I killed the enemies and had to backtrack through empty hallway after hallway it just made me get frightened from the possibility of being watched by someone or an enemy appearing out of nowhere. That is the series I have the most memories of giving me that sensation but Super Mario 64 and the Syphon Filter series managed to give me similar experiences. Regarding the entry of false memories: I had a Nintendo 64 when I was about 5 to 8 years old and I played a lot of Super Mario 64 in it. It disappeared completely for years but in 2017, out of nowhere, I found it in a really random spot on my house covered in just a bit of dust after years and years of it being missing. That was a weird and surreal story on its own but it is not the one that matters to this topic. After finding the console and inserting it on my TV to replay Super Mario 64 for the first time since I was a child I distinctly remember two corridors that I was expecting to revisit at any moment in the game. One of the corridors had a left open window with a few clock cogs on the ground that lead to a secret painting (roughly located in the second floor of the castle) while the other was just a very simple corridor that had no point of interest at all (it just existed somewhere). I finished the game and didn't find those places at all and that creeped me out quite a bit for I was sure I had been in them before. Syphon Filter 1 gave me a similar experience years ago where I remembered being in a really dark and ominous cave at the end of the game that had a few cracks on the walls where you could see the city from the first level. Once again, this never happens in the game despite there really being a city and a level set in caves (I guess it could've just been a dream I had that somehow passed as real to me but even then it was really weird). Nowadays Super Mario 64 is by far the creepiest game to me that was ever conceived. I just feel completely creeped out while exploring the castle alone for it feels like I'm being watched somehow and some experiences like the laugh in Big Boo's Haunt (which at the time I experienced it it was just a mere rumor for icebergs weren't around at the time which just made it a lot creepier to me) and the piano really make me just fear the game altogether despite me loving it. Sometimes in my old school I had to wait for about an hour for the bus to arrive so I just stayed inside instead of going to the bus stop to get Wi-Fi from school until it was about 15 minutes for it to arrive. Since I was in a class that always left late from school I often found it almost completely empty and it creeped me out so much. I walked through the halls and it felt like someone was watching me all the time. It felt so relieving whenever someone passed by because I truly got creeped out a lot in those hours. I even remember one time that I was outside the school (in the sports area) alone but they had already locked the doors and I couldn't get inside. The problem was that they also locked the front gates due to dumb Covid-19 measures so I couldn't get out of school in any way without going inside. I was essentially stuck alone in an open area waiting desperately to see someone pass through the window to open up the door to me since I really had to leave for the bus. I think I eventually had to give up and got out by jumping above a grid that lead to the front gate. It may not seem scary when I explain it through words but the absolute lonely feeling of being in the yard of a school without a way of getting inside or outside really made me start feeling anxiety especially because I was used to seeing that space always full of people (it was the peak of a liminal space experience to me).
@@geeked24-7 Sorry, I didn't expect it to turn out as long as it did. This video simply reminded me of certain events so I wanted to share them here. Thank you for taking your time to read it, though.
bro when i saw that and the music shift i had a flabbergasted look on my face and i was distracted by serotonin by bfdi mention and jack stauber mention
My mum used to be a teacher, so as a kid, I used to have to hang around at the primary school she worked at whenever she had a staff meeting. The school was lonely at night, me being the only person there aside from the caretakers (especially in winter; full of dark corridors and empty classrooms). Looking back on it, that would make for an awesome survival horror game.
The balloon thing vision test is very ominous to me, I remember being scared of it cuz you had to scared at the image so the doctor can take pictures of ur eyes, that meaning a short burst of air being puffed into ur eye. I'll always get nervous since it's kinda like a junpscare
48:05 Holy crap, seeing this image feels unreal, for context, i pretty much believe i was the first person to post this image on reddit, i since deleted my reddit account (cuz my brain pretty smol) but seeing it here, it's so crazy. Keep up the good work buddy, great video!
Superliminal is very much worth a play. The game is only a few hours long and the optical illusion puzzles are all clever. It’s not really ABOUT liminal spaces, it just has a dreamlike atmosphere about it, which is fitting because in the game, you’re under this advanced dreaming simulation. It’s got a pretty simple plot and even a good message. It usually goes for around $10-$15 USD, so I’d say pick it up when you get the chance.
This is how I like spending my Saturdays. Full screen and coffee and liminal spaces. Thanks for showing all these resources for liminal spaces! Also its funny I fall asleep sometimes listening to the Silent hill ost
OH THE I SPY! that unlocked a memory from my childhood i forgot existed! i now remember i used to be so creeped-out by them, especially with all the weird lighting. while i'm still slightly creeped-out, it feel sooooo nostalgic now. wow that brought back a lot.
Man, your iceberg videos are always so relaxing.. I find myself falling asleep to them! (This is genuinely a compliment, it really takes a lot for me to fully fall asleep while watching something)
This phenomena has fascinated me recently. It finally was able describe why I feel certain ways about certain places. I don’t know why. As someone who was born in 1999, I wouldn’t have been exposed much to the 70s - 90s. Yet for some reason, I always associate liminal spaces with those time periods. A lot of people mention about feeling creeped out or lonely. But weirdly enough, every time I look at similar photographs or images in the past, I always wonder what it’s like to BE on those places. It just feels dreamy. Like fantasy. I feel calm.
it could be that you associate that time period with liminal spaces because the spaces were built in that period, the spaces share a visual style or the spaces could realistically fit in that time period
There's an interesting line between the feelings evoked by Liminal aesthetics. A good chunk of people will feel nostalgic, almost as though they're just enjoying After Hours aesthetics rather than the intentionally uncomfortable Liminal. I was born in '99 too, and I have an extreme fascination with the architechture and settings of the 40's-80's. These eras are really fitting for Liminal settings as they are the location of bygone days. You get curious about what such a location looked like in its hayday. Kind of like the feeling invoked during the Radiator Springs sequence in Cars(which I know is a very weird film to use as an example).
The eye tests always had a mysterious air in them. You were told there was a person inside the house or in the hot-air balloon waving and asked to focus on them. It was obviously a tool just to get you to focus on the center of the image while they measure your eye dilation ir something like that. The pictures were always somewhat unnerving to me as a kid, though, because I didn't know what the machine was for and thought something could go wrong if I looked away from the house or balloon. The rest of the image felt like forbidden territory.
It was to blow air in your eyes to check to make sure you eyes were doing fine I guess but I was just told as a kid to just stare at the balloon/house / straight ahead then it was over so idk maybe every eye doctor is different cause they never told me that lol
@@kaylavinson I see this mistake a lot to the point where I wonder if some places just use the same machine for both tests and it's not a mistake at all. But as far as I've ever remembered, it's always been two different machines. One where you at this image so that they can measure the diameter of your pupils, and another where you stare at a green light that blows air into your eye to measure pressure(?).
This should be really interesting. The poolhouses and video games and 90s arcades are one thing but I always get a kick out of an overly specific liminal space area that you somehow can completely relate to with a friend.
The fact that Scott The Woz's Glover Room got on a liminal space iceberg is crazy. Also, imagine how terrifying seeing a giant Quagmire head would be in a scary room. And KC actually scared me
For the eye test hot air balloon and house, I never personally found them unsettling, probably because they were blurry and I was mentally preparing for a blast of cold air to the eye.
The False Memories thing is raslly interesting to me. I have a lot of "false memories" of video games. My memories of when I watched my sisters play games(I was too young to play at the time) vastly differ from my personal experience with said games. I have like, two completely separate sets of memories of how I remember games as a 10 y/o to an adult playing them, versus how I remember them when I was too young to even remember. Vastly different layouts or settings of certain areas that I still weirdly rememeber vividly have also lead to some ibteresting dreams.
The dreams/nightmares entry reminded me of how often I'll go through a period of time, where I'll remember multiple back to back. All having their own feel. Some being crowded with people that never existed or amalgamations based on content I liked at the time. One that stands out to me still is after I met this girl at a library only once. Mostly because everything played like a normal day. I woke up to blinding sunlight, my mom shouting from another room to eat whatever is in the fridge, then me getting distracted by an ice cream truck outside. As I tried to catch up with it, I spot the same library girl in all white. (or at least I think it was, it started getting blurry?? at this point) We started talking while following the ice cream truck up until it finally slows down. By the time I realized I wondered way out of home, my train of thought was interrupted when I see I'm now in a graveyard and the girl isn't with me anymore. Rather she's sitting on a tombstone. Sadly (or not really?), I don't remember what exactly scared me awake irl but for some reason I feel a sense of guilt when I think about her. One day I want to draw what that dream felt and looked like. anyway i wish the creator added the feeling you get when you're left alone at night as a kid
Just want to say when talking about Mario 64 you forgot to mention The Prophecy of L is real 2401, its probably the biggest reason why everyone has been resonating so much with the creepy aspects of this game in the past 2 years in particular. (also no i am not joking about it being a actual Prophecy, look it up)
I personally have on mutliple occasions visited malls that I had gone to in the past, that were completely abandoned, all of which were outside malls, which you would think would be cut off, but apprently not. I honestly understand why malls were considered liminal space, as it felt so.... uncanny to be in that position, I thankfully wasnt alone, but if I was, i can honestly say that it would of felt like i was dreaming, or in a nightmare, cuz it felt so uncanny, wierdest part too, is that while it was abandoned, like 99 percent of shops were closed, there was still stuff in there ran by people, like there was still people around, and stands that were previously manned, almost felt like it was a bit of a peer into a future, of quite literal dead air.
Hey Sunflower! I've seen your progress since your first iceberg video, and I have been hooked on these and others from different channels ever since. This video is no exception. Looks very professional and it's much less cringe, or rather the opposite of it, since your Zelda Iceberg video. Keep up the good work, man. I hope to see more great content of yours.
Well you don't have to be a bully about it man, calling something cringe is so mean and condescending. He was just having some dumb fun, what's so wrong with that?
One of the only dreams I remember is one where I was in a very crowded area with my mom, and I looked to my left and noticed my grandfather, who had passed. I went up to him and just hugged him for 15 seconds. After that the random events of dreams commenced again. It wasn't just vague either, it felt real.
Not sure if it was mentioned, but old school JRPG battle backgrounds are incredibly liminal to me. The endless grassland expanse, a desert without any features, an empty snowfield with only desolate mountains and a forest in the background. Rpgmaker and old final fantasy comes to mind.
I now have a suggestion. The backrooms iceberg. I think this already exist but maybe you could make your own relating to both the backrooms wikidot wiki and liminal archives and the rivalry the to wikis have had. I think it be an interesting thing to cover as an iceberg to have obscure stuff from both wikis coverd would be cool
there was one dream that I'd consider liminal that I had when I was around 7. The ground was a skyscraper that looked as if it had fallen over without any physical damage done to it. It was a bit askew as well, making it hard to walk up or down. The sky was a soft pink, with clouds covering any and all parts of the sky. As I looked across the horizon, I saw an infinite number of buildings just like the one I was standing on. Fallen over, like a child smacking his toys. I'm 18 now, and I still cannot forget that dream.
same when i was like six i had this dream that i was in the tron world like the one with the grid but the thing was i'd never seen the movie and in the distance there was a video game like grass land or something with like square trees but no people no animals or anything and nothing but the tron grid for as long as i could walk in the dream its been may 15 plus years since then and i still haven't forgotten it
Great deep dive once again. I feel like I'd heard of liminal spaces before but Kane Pixels recent content has made me more aware of them. And there's something eerily satisfying about viewing a compilation of liminal space images. Maybe because they're like empty video game levels, but knowing they exist in the real world kinda immerses you and draws you in...
I find dreams fascinating, I have reoccurring locations in my dreams, one of them is the infinite Walmart, with alley with the same object over and over again and bins filled with unrecognizable objects.
i've been touring colleges around my state lately. during one trip, we ended up going through a bridge-tunnel and even though it was 10 in the morning and there were cars all around, it very much felt like a liminal space and i wouldn't want to be in there when it was empty
I got super hype when I saw OmegaMart! I've been there pretty recently and can tell you it is a wild ride! It's not super creepy since most of the time there'll be plenty of other people, and the back half of the exhibit is super abstract. It's also really interactive, so I highly recommend it if you ever find yourself in the Las Vegas area.
If you want the liminal experience, you should come to Springfield MO. I've lived here a long time and I see stuff like this more than the average person should. From our map being a grid and giant tunnels under our city to the weird abandoned Victorian homes and stores. We had this mall called the North Town Mall which closed in the 90s and it had this feel. What's even stranger is that the backrooms there were very strange and how they were connected. Even the colors used in the mall itself gave you a sense of 'offness'. Just check out photos of our city.
Omega mart was so much fun, 30/10 recommended!! It's so fun and surreal. There is so many hidden rooms, and there's even lore. Both Santa Fe Meow Wolf and omega mart are worth a visit. I'm actually wearing my Meow Wolf bracelet as I write this haha. Great video Sunflower!!
I remember in the 3rd grade reading the I spy books looking at every detail and now I revisit the books here and then and feeling the same way as I felt 10 years ago.
About the Hot Air Balloon and the Crops Farm House, as someone who has gone throug a test and seen them in the place and scene, the moment you see them fir the first time is just a thought if "who is in there". When you see it again in another test is more like a "they're still there". Now, when I Encounter them on the internet, Instead of feeling menaced or confused, I get a sensation of "They were there to help". This video was pretty recomforting, great job as always.
as somebody who had plates put in their knees in their teens childrens hospitals although designed to be cheery are very powerful realworld liminal spaces.
33:13 I think I know where this is from! I’ve seen this graffiti in real life on a train journey from London to Edinburgh, somewhere in Northern England or Southern Scotland. It always sticks in my brain because I made a rather immature joke about it which drew strong reactions from my parents (I was 12 at the time). Anyway, it’s visible enough from the train, which goes right past it. I think about this often and was surprised to see it come up, especially since it’s rather iconic to me!
@@pap_core It was probably a joke about wanting to see a "Poesie" (I know the spelling is wrong, but youtube autodeletes comments with this word for some reason)
31:10 100% had to look at the house the worse part is that depending on th engle, the house would be in your blind spot, making it seem like the house disapears
Oh my god thank the lord that I wasn't the only one who played ISPY games. After seeing many liminal space videos, I started to remember how I felt when I was a kid reading ISPY books. Something about how their is proof of life, yet no life is seen is very eerie. I recently bought a shitty spooky mansion video game and replaying it on my Wii just to have that feeling again. Good times.
I don't know why but liminal spaces are very comforting to me just the feeling of being alone in an area that is usually bustling with people and things now suddenly empty and baren something about it is just so peaceful to me it's hard to explain
Some of the parts here spooked me a lot, such as that kc thing that one jumpscared me, also one thing about dreams and nightmares part I felt like I had that one in one of my nightmares and dreams such as like umbrella in the elevator and a strange entity chasing me in a place where it kind of looked like my house. It really made me think about a lot of things. Good work on the iceberg vid as always sunflower
30:49 Hello yes I am one of those chaps who sees these during eye tests, as early as early childhood to as recently as last week! I've never seen the house variant before, but the hot air balloon and I go way back. I love this thing; I think seeing that was the first time in my life I've ever experienced a feeling I couldn't pinpoint, which may have snowballed into my love for dreamy surrealist thingies such as liminal spaces!
Man I spy is truly nostalgic. Fact I wish I could go to my old elementary school at some point. Because now, as an almost adult, few places there barely feel real anymore. That being the kindergarten room and the library. I feel like those places were just fragments of a dream that is lost and almost forgotten. I would go to the library with classmates every Wednesday to listen to the librarian tell stories as well sat on carpet stairs, and then I would look at I Spy or giant poster sized books about animals. The shelves were weird too, some had hidden compartments or strange empty spaces that I felt if I went in them I'd end up in a narnia type of area. And the kindergarten room! When I was that age, it felt like a gigantic utopian world completely different from any other. Huge with the ceiling high up, every activity all in one place, old box shapes computers, shelves everywhere each filled with different colorful objects, and a book room. That area never felt real. There was a set of stairs leading to a floating room with windows overlooking the entire room, comfy chairs, and boxes full of picture books. Recess was all I remember then because it was still in the room but playful. If I were to take liminal photos my elementary school would be the spot
1:15:29 im so dizzy for traveling on a plane back to home and i couldnt sleep anything... i was almost sleeping just now watching the video and THAT KNOCK KNOCK ... you did woke me up
gotta be honest, my favorite channel that does liminal space comps is float. I first found out about this community from them and they just gotta great catalogue
I was at one of the buildings at my school, which had gray urban aesthetics and short identical hallways, similarly lit by spotlights in an art galleries. The longer I stayed in there, the more angled the halls became, some entrances became obscured from the way these lights lit every corridor. Sometimes I heard voices and footsteps, even human shadows flashed past me, but I didn't meet anyone. Eventually lights started to fade and I felt something behind me, so I chased the hallway lights until I couldn't keep up with the maze itself. I don't remember waking up.
So I want to add in a nightmare I had years ago- it's still really clear to me and trips me up from time to time. My mom and I were touring a possible school/college for me to go to. It was late afternoon, very much golden hour, everything cast in this golden orange coloring. We went through this door in a hallway and it led to this isolated courtyard of sorts? The plants were dead like they would be in winter, and the two benches facing one another were very worn and sunbleached/splintery. We passed through to another hallway and it led to this area that was supposed to be a gym, but instead it was a platform that was surrounded by murky water like a lake or swamp. There were this shale rock outcrops that connected the platform to the terrain under the water, and in the distance you could see this large opening taking up most of the wall that lead outside and the lighting was more bright white. My mom went into the water for some reason and a giant catfish thing electrocuted her to death right before my eyes. There were no other people in that dream.
can’t believe omori wasn’t included on the iceberg-it’s chock full of liminal spaces (between the empty house, the hallucinations, white space, and black space)
Most eye care centres in Canada use the hot air ballon image but more of a distant version of it. I remember asking my eye doctor about it once and they said that the original image kept giving people the creeps or even nightmares for unknown reasons so they had to edit it to make it less realistic.
When I was young I remember reading some I spy books and playing their games like I spy fantasy and I spy fun house. They do get like a liminal vibe that you are like seen this picture before in your life
Hey 👋🏻 I’m Aussie too. A lot older than you but I just loved the 90’s and really miss that time. I also have a strong nostalgia for the 1950’s although I wasn’t alive then. Of course it’s my romanticised version of the 50’s. The 90’s really was wonderful 💖
So not technically liminal spaces but something i find to be very similar to that are evenings whether its being on a train or taking walk or walk or even just being at a zoo whatever the situation is they always have this feeling nostalgia/loneliness/peacefulness to them
I have a huge fascination with liminal spaces and I love to note down my dreams. I have many dreams with liminal spaces but here’s one of my favorites: “I had a dream where I was viewing this guy’s house or apartment on google maps. It felt really wrong to do, but the house was so liminal space-y, the front door opened to a square room with white walls and a gray floor I think, with no furniture. There was a door on the other side of the room. I went through it and it was another square empty room. I think there was one more empty room. Then I went through another door, to this dark, extremely claustrophobic hallway that was parallel to the walls with the door. It was very dark and the carpet was similar to arcade carpet. After that I believe I ended up in his bedroom which was still very minimalistic. I only remember a king sized bed with a gray comforter. I think I went into another room which might have been empty as well. Strange house.” Also speaking of liminal space MMOs, animal jam comes to mind because it was my favorite MMO growing up. I remember going to empty worlds and everything feeling wrong. Also my brother and I used to play this one Roblox game. It was basically mad libs but in roblox, but the lobby was this room with a large play place. There was no music and the only ambience I remember is the bloxy cola can opening and sipping noises that seemed to come from nowhere. Very few players actually played the game and I think that added to the liminal vibe.
Update: I found (and played) that Roblox game again for the first time in years. Its called Story Generator and now there's music in the game but it still is very liminal space-y
I dreamt one time I was walking through an old abandoned high school. And every so often I would hear footsteps running around somewhere. Never behind me, nor ever around a corner. Just way off in the distance, I would hear walking or running, before it just faded off. And the reason I was walking through the school, I can't remember. I only remember that I had a strange urge to just walk forward. And each time I wound up in a hallway. It always felt longer then it should've been. Like after I passed a certain threshold, the hallway would just expand. So I would never reach the end. Another thing, was that I felt like I was being watched as soon as I entered the lunchroom. I would look around, yet see no one. It felt so alone there, yet, I knew someone, or something, was always just out of view. I wasn't scared of it, just deeply unsettled
The one think I love about liminal spaces is that there still popular obviously not as popular as they were in the summer of 2020, when liminal space compilations were booming, one person who did a comp. was DavidCrypt, who did theories on where The Backrooms image was taken and other stuff but privated all his vids except 2, liminal space comp part 1 and backrooms location. Now liminal spaces are still popular due to Kane Pixels with his Backrooms series and I’m in his discord and I still see liminal spaces posted on there which says they’re still popular in 2022
I once had a liminal dream. It's a dream I'll never forget. It was the middle of the night. I was alone in a huuuuuuge luxury hotel. Snow-white walls, broken up by large clean glass windows. Light wood floors. I never got inside any of the rooms, but I remember a cylindrical glass elevator in the middle of the wide corridor, surrounded by marble plant holders with small lush green bushes on them. On the roof there was a pool. The water was beautifully lit up and it was surrounded by white plastic lounge chairs. In the far distance across a field of night darkness you could see a large city with bright shining lights. If you listened very closely, you could hear the faint sounds of vehicles traversing the roads. The night sky was beautiful, you could see every star and a large glowing full moon shined in the sky. There was no sound but the echo of the footsteps inside the hotel, and even though there was no one there, I've never felt so comfortable.
The next day I woke up like I had never before or have since. So peaceful, so relaxed. One day I tried to return in my dreams, and did, though it was barely what the first experiemce brought. To this day I won't forget that beautiful place.
I actually get to see the hot air balloon image whenever I get an eye check! The first time I saw it, I was already an adult but it still freaked me out a little. They just emit a threatening aura I couldn't put into words.
I used to read eye spy all the time when i was a kid. I honestly forgot those books even existed. They were just so interesting to look at. I miss being a kid

21:24 This is such a fantastic way to summarize what’s at the core of ALL liminal spaces. Sometimes it’s so difficult to describe.
Also, I absolutely loved how you played the previews of each level with eerie music and no talking. Great atmosphere, intentional or not!
Thanks! And yeah i was trying to intentionally create some atmosphere during those sections. So it's good to know it worked
Wait, princess peachie??? I wasn’t expecting you here!! Hi!!! :D
The KC image is from an art gallery that was in Valley View mall in Dallas, Texas! I saw it back in 2016 and took a picture of it up close, which I can email it to you if you'd like. It was a dead mall at that point and it's since been demolished. It's so cool to see a place that I would regularly go to mentioned in a video!
Bro please we need to see it
Theres a video I found where a guy explores the abandoned stores there. Pretty cool stuff. ruclips.net/video/8lmAHZcpwx0/видео.html
Nice pfp
We need to See it
omg valley view mall used to be the spot back in high school, it is nostalgic as now it is abandoned
I feel like the old Tomb Raider games had some of the creepiest liminal spaces ever conceived. Whenever I killed the enemies and had to backtrack through empty hallway after hallway it just made me get frightened from the possibility of being watched by someone or an enemy appearing out of nowhere. That is the series I have the most memories of giving me that sensation but Super Mario 64 and the Syphon Filter series managed to give me similar experiences. Regarding the entry of false memories: I had a Nintendo 64 when I was about 5 to 8 years old and I played a lot of Super Mario 64 in it. It disappeared completely for years but in 2017, out of nowhere, I found it in a really random spot on my house covered in just a bit of dust after years and years of it being missing. That was a weird and surreal story on its own but it is not the one that matters to this topic. After finding the console and inserting it on my TV to replay Super Mario 64 for the first time since I was a child I distinctly remember two corridors that I was expecting to revisit at any moment in the game. One of the corridors had a left open window with a few clock cogs on the ground that lead to a secret painting (roughly located in the second floor of the castle) while the other was just a very simple corridor that had no point of interest at all (it just existed somewhere). I finished the game and didn't find those places at all and that creeped me out quite a bit for I was sure I had been in them before. Syphon Filter 1 gave me a similar experience years ago where I remembered being in a really dark and ominous cave at the end of the game that had a few cracks on the walls where you could see the city from the first level. Once again, this never happens in the game despite there really being a city and a level set in caves (I guess it could've just been a dream I had that somehow passed as real to me but even then it was really weird). Nowadays Super Mario 64 is by far the creepiest game to me that was ever conceived. I just feel completely creeped out while exploring the castle alone for it feels like I'm being watched somehow and some experiences like the laugh in Big Boo's Haunt (which at the time I experienced it it was just a mere rumor for icebergs weren't around at the time which just made it a lot creepier to me) and the piano really make me just fear the game altogether despite me loving it. Sometimes in my old school I had to wait for about an hour for the bus to arrive so I just stayed inside instead of going to the bus stop to get Wi-Fi from school until it was about 15 minutes for it to arrive. Since I was in a class that always left late from school I often found it almost completely empty and it creeped me out so much. I walked through the halls and it felt like someone was watching me all the time. It felt so relieving whenever someone passed by because I truly got creeped out a lot in those hours. I even remember one time that I was outside the school (in the sports area) alone but they had already locked the doors and I couldn't get inside. The problem was that they also locked the front gates due to dumb Covid-19 measures so I couldn't get out of school in any way without going inside. I was essentially stuck alone in an open area waiting desperately to see someone pass through the window to open up the door to me since I really had to leave for the bus. I think I eventually had to give up and got out by jumping above a grid that lead to the front gate. It may not seem scary when I explain it through words but the absolute lonely feeling of being in the yard of a school without a way of getting inside or outside really made me start feeling anxiety especially because I was used to seeing that space always full of people (it was the peak of a liminal space experience to me).
Wow long comment lol great story tho
@@geeked24-7 Sorry, I didn't expect it to turn out as long as it did. This video simply reminded me of certain events so I wanted to share them here. Thank you for taking your time to read it, though.
@@dg_777player5 yeah np
I ain't reading all that
47:22 the way the music suddenly changes tone at the same time as KC scared me all of a sudden.
I was watching at night and I looked over at my phone from putting clothes away, and I was terrified
bro when i saw that and the music shift i had a flabbergasted look on my face
and i was distracted by serotonin by bfdi mention and jack stauber mention
My mum used to be a teacher, so as a kid, I used to have to hang around at the primary school she worked at whenever she had a staff meeting. The school was lonely at night, me being the only person there aside from the caretakers (especially in winter; full of dark corridors and empty classrooms).
Looking back on it, that would make for an awesome survival horror game.
It's always a great day when Sunflower uploads an Iceberg video
I agree
I agree
I agree
I agree
The balloon thing vision test is very ominous to me, I remember being scared of it cuz you had to scared at the image so the doctor can take pictures of ur eyes, that meaning a short burst of air being puffed into ur eye. I'll always get nervous since it's kinda like a junpscare
48:05 Holy crap, seeing this image feels unreal, for context, i pretty much believe i was the first person to post this image on reddit, i since deleted my reddit account (cuz my brain pretty smol) but seeing it here, it's so crazy. Keep up the good work buddy, great video!
Superliminal is very much worth a play. The game is only a few hours long and the optical illusion puzzles are all clever.
It’s not really ABOUT liminal spaces, it just has a dreamlike atmosphere about it, which is fitting because in the game, you’re under this advanced dreaming simulation. It’s got a pretty simple plot and even a good message.
It usually goes for around $10-$15 USD, so I’d say pick it up when you get the chance.
I like this new format. The parts where there's just music are unsettling but comforting.
This is how I like spending my Saturdays. Full screen and coffee and liminal spaces. Thanks for showing all these resources for liminal spaces! Also its funny I fall asleep sometimes listening to the Silent hill ost
KC gives off the vibe of something acting completely human but you instinctively know they're just empty
OH THE I SPY! that unlocked a memory from my childhood i forgot existed! i now remember i used to be so creeped-out by them, especially with all the weird lighting. while i'm still slightly creeped-out, it feel sooooo nostalgic now. wow that brought back a lot.
FINALLY. SOMEONE ELSE WHO REMEMBERS ISPY: THE SPOOKY MANSION. That game was literally my lifeblood as a child. I replayed it so. Soooo many times
Man, your iceberg videos are always so relaxing.. I find myself falling asleep to them! (This is genuinely a compliment, it really takes a lot for me to fully fall asleep while watching something)
That's nice to hear, I hope you're hitting some good zzzs :D
This phenomena has fascinated me recently. It finally was able describe why I feel certain ways about certain places.
I don’t know why. As someone who was born in 1999, I wouldn’t have been exposed much to the 70s - 90s. Yet for some reason, I always associate liminal spaces with those time periods.
A lot of people mention about feeling creeped out or lonely. But weirdly enough, every time I look at similar photographs or images in the past, I always wonder what it’s like to BE on those places. It just feels dreamy. Like fantasy. I feel calm.
it could be that you associate that time period with liminal spaces because the spaces were built in that period, the spaces share a visual style or the spaces could realistically fit in that time period
I too associate certain liminal spaces with that era, though not entirely certain why
There's an interesting line between the feelings evoked by Liminal aesthetics. A good chunk of people will feel nostalgic, almost as though they're just enjoying After Hours aesthetics rather than the intentionally uncomfortable Liminal.
I was born in '99 too, and I have an extreme fascination with the architechture and settings of the 40's-80's. These eras are really fitting for Liminal settings as they are the location of bygone days. You get curious about what such a location looked like in its hayday. Kind of like the feeling invoked during the Radiator Springs sequence in Cars(which I know is a very weird film to use as an example).
It was fun to be apart of this! That segment was edited beautiful. Sunflower makes bomb content make sure you catch every new release B)
Thanks for the being part of the video big man B)
The eye tests always had a mysterious air in them. You were told there was a person inside the house or in the hot-air balloon waving and asked to focus on them. It was obviously a tool just to get you to focus on the center of the image while they measure your eye dilation ir something like that. The pictures were always somewhat unnerving to me as a kid, though, because I didn't know what the machine was for and thought something could go wrong if I looked away from the house or balloon. The rest of the image felt like forbidden territory.
It was to blow air in your eyes to check to make sure you eyes were doing fine I guess but I was just told as a kid to just stare at the balloon/house / straight ahead then it was over so idk maybe every eye doctor is different cause they never told me that lol
@@kaylavinson I see this mistake a lot to the point where I wonder if some places just use the same machine for both tests and it's not a mistake at all.
But as far as I've ever remembered, it's always been two different machines. One where you at this image so that they can measure the diameter of your pupils, and another where you stare at a green light that blows air into your eye to measure pressure(?).
@@aurafox1 Colored light + air is one machine and image is another. The image is to test your eye sight. (I have to take annual eye exams.)
I don't like em cause they keep making the floaters in my eyes more obvious. .
I love that some of the liminal space images are from the I Spy books, I love those. I have eight different I Spy books
This should be really interesting. The poolhouses and video games and 90s arcades are one thing but I always get a kick out of an overly specific liminal space area that you somehow can completely relate to with a friend.
The fact that Scott The Woz's Glover Room got on a liminal space iceberg is crazy. Also, imagine how terrifying seeing a giant Quagmire head would be in a scary room. And KC actually scared me
31:08 I remember the last time I took a vision test they used an image like the house, but I think it was actually a barn.
I remember that
For the eye test hot air balloon and house, I never personally found them unsettling, probably because they were blurry and I was mentally preparing for a blast of cold air to the eye.
Me too
The False Memories thing is raslly interesting to me. I have a lot of "false memories" of video games. My memories of when I watched my sisters play games(I was too young to play at the time) vastly differ from my personal experience with said games. I have like, two completely separate sets of memories of how I remember games as a 10 y/o to an adult playing them, versus how I remember them when I was too young to even remember. Vastly different layouts or settings of certain areas that I still weirdly rememeber vividly have also lead to some ibteresting dreams.
The dreams/nightmares entry reminded me of how often I'll go through a period of time, where I'll remember multiple back to back. All having their own feel. Some being crowded with people that never existed or amalgamations based on content I liked at the time.
One that stands out to me still is after I met this girl at a library only once. Mostly because everything played like a normal day. I woke up to blinding sunlight, my mom shouting from another room to eat whatever is in the fridge, then me getting distracted by an ice cream truck outside. As I tried to catch up with it, I spot the same library girl in all white. (or at least I think it was, it started getting blurry?? at this point) We started talking while following the ice cream truck up until it finally slows down. By the time I realized I wondered way out of home, my train of thought was interrupted when I see I'm now in a graveyard and the girl isn't with me anymore. Rather she's sitting on a tombstone.
Sadly (or not really?), I don't remember what exactly scared me awake irl but for some reason I feel a sense of guilt when I think about her. One day I want to draw what that dream felt and looked like.
anyway i wish the creator added the feeling you get when you're left alone at night as a kid
Just want to say when talking about Mario 64 you forgot to mention The Prophecy of L is real 2401, its probably the biggest reason why everyone has been resonating so much with the creepy aspects of this game in the past 2 years in particular. (also no i am not joking about it being a actual Prophecy, look it up)
I personally have on mutliple occasions visited malls that I had gone to in the past, that were completely abandoned, all of which were outside malls, which you would think would be cut off, but apprently not. I honestly understand why malls were considered liminal space, as it felt so.... uncanny to be in that position, I thankfully wasnt alone, but if I was, i can honestly say that it would of felt like i was dreaming, or in a nightmare, cuz it felt so uncanny, wierdest part too, is that while it was abandoned, like 99 percent of shops were closed, there was still stuff in there ran by people, like there was still people around, and stands that were previously manned, almost felt like it was a bit of a peer into a future, of quite literal dead air.
new sunflower iceberg dropped and for some reason I didn't get the freaking notif but I'm here now :)
Hey Sunflower!
I've seen your progress since your first iceberg video, and I have been hooked on these and others from different channels ever since. This video is no exception. Looks very professional and it's much less cringe, or rather the opposite of it, since your Zelda Iceberg video. Keep up the good work, man. I hope to see more great content of yours.
Well you don't have to be a bully about it man, calling something cringe is so mean and condescending.
He was just having some dumb fun, what's so wrong with that?
One of the only dreams I remember is one where I was in a very crowded area with my mom, and I looked to my left and noticed my grandfather, who had passed. I went up to him and just hugged him for 15 seconds. After that the random events of dreams commenced again. It wasn't just vague either, it felt real.
Not sure if it was mentioned, but old school JRPG battle backgrounds are incredibly liminal to me. The endless grassland expanse, a desert without any features, an empty snowfield with only desolate mountains and a forest in the background. Rpgmaker and old final fantasy comes to mind.
havent watched the vid yet but thank you for uploading this youre a good person have a good life love you
Woooo this one's a biggie. I'm ready
sunflower you are singlehandedly responsible for my sleep schedule. thank you for your service
No worries! Thanks for watching the vids
dude got a raid sponser, hes one of the big boys now
47:50 YES!! When I first saw this, I screamed in joy! He does need an entire room to store Glover after all
I now have a suggestion. The backrooms iceberg. I think this already exist but maybe you could make your own relating to both the backrooms wikidot wiki and liminal archives and the rivalry the to wikis have had. I think it be an interesting thing to cover as an iceberg to have obscure stuff from both wikis coverd would be cool
there was one dream that I'd consider liminal that I had when I was around 7.
The ground was a skyscraper that looked as if it had fallen over without any physical damage done to it. It was a bit askew as well, making it hard to walk up or down. The sky was a soft pink, with clouds covering any and all parts of the sky. As I looked across the horizon, I saw an infinite number of buildings just like the one I was standing on. Fallen over, like a child smacking his toys.
I'm 18 now, and I still cannot forget that dream.
same when i was like six i had this dream that i was in the tron world like the one with the grid but the thing was i'd never seen the movie and in the distance there was a video game like grass land or something with like square trees but no people no animals or anything and nothing but the tron grid for as long as i could walk in the dream its been may 15 plus years since then and i still haven't forgotten it
Great deep dive once again. I feel like I'd heard of liminal spaces before but Kane Pixels recent content has made me more aware of them. And there's something eerily satisfying about viewing a compilation of liminal space images. Maybe because they're like empty video game levels, but knowing they exist in the real world kinda immerses you and draws you in...
I find dreams fascinating, I have reoccurring locations in my dreams, one of them is the infinite Walmart, with alley with the same object over and over again and bins filled with unrecognizable objects.
i've been touring colleges around my state lately. during one trip, we ended up going through a bridge-tunnel and even though it was 10 in the morning and there were cars all around, it very much felt like a liminal space and i wouldn't want to be in there when it was empty
Liminal spaces was such a great send off to 2010's media.
I’ve had to take eye image tests with the ones in the video, and I discreetly remember having a nightmare where the house ate me. memories.
I got super hype when I saw OmegaMart! I've been there pretty recently and can tell you it is a wild ride! It's not super creepy since most of the time there'll be plenty of other people, and the back half of the exhibit is super abstract. It's also really interactive, so I highly recommend it if you ever find yourself in the Las Vegas area.
If you want the liminal experience, you should come to Springfield MO. I've lived here a long time and I see stuff like this more than the average person should. From our map being a grid and giant tunnels under our city to the weird abandoned Victorian homes and stores. We had this mall called the North Town Mall which closed in the 90s and it had this feel. What's even stranger is that the backrooms there were very strange and how they were connected. Even the colors used in the mall itself gave you a sense of 'offness'. Just check out photos of our city.

I remember in the 3rd grade reading the I spy books looking at every detail and now I revisit the books here and then and feeling the same way as I felt 10 years ago.
About the Hot Air Balloon and the Crops Farm House, as someone who has gone throug a test and seen them in the place and scene, the moment you see them fir the first time is just a thought if "who is in there". When you see it again in another test is more like a "they're still there". Now, when I Encounter them on the internet, Instead of feeling menaced or confused, I get a sensation of "They were there to help".
This video was pretty recomforting, great job as always.
as somebody who had plates put in their knees in their teens childrens hospitals although designed to be cheery are very powerful realworld liminal spaces.
33:13 I think I know where this is from! I’ve seen this graffiti in real life on a train journey from London to Edinburgh, somewhere in Northern England or Southern Scotland. It always sticks in my brain because I made a rather immature joke about it which drew strong reactions from my parents (I was 12 at the time). Anyway, it’s visible enough from the train, which goes right past it. I think about this often and was surprised to see it come up, especially since it’s rather iconic to me!

31:10 100% had to look at the house
the worse part is that depending on th engle, the house would be in your blind spot, making it seem like the house disapears
Oh my god thank the lord that I wasn't the only one who played ISPY games. After seeing many liminal space videos, I started to remember how I felt when I was a kid reading ISPY books. Something about how their is proof of life, yet no life is seen is very eerie. I recently bought a shitty spooky mansion video game and replaying it on my Wii just to have that feeling again. Good times.
I don't know why but liminal spaces are very comforting to me just the feeling of being alone in an area that is usually bustling with people and things now suddenly empty and baren something about it is just so peaceful to me it's hard to explain
Some of the parts here spooked me a lot, such as that kc thing that one jumpscared me, also one thing about dreams and nightmares part I felt like I had that one in one of my nightmares and dreams such as like umbrella in the elevator and a strange entity chasing me in a place where it kind of looked like my house. It really made me think about a lot of things. Good work on the iceberg vid as always sunflower
This is one of the best iceberg videos I've watched
for the vision test, its like a horror game. they spray air into your eyes without telling you when
30:49 Hello yes I am one of those chaps who sees these during eye tests, as early as early childhood to as recently as last week!
I've never seen the house variant before, but the hot air balloon and I go way back.
I love this thing; I think seeing that was the first time in my life I've ever experienced a feeling I couldn't pinpoint, which may have snowballed into my love for dreamy surrealist thingies such as liminal spaces!
Hey that's cool as B)
Oh wow the intro to this video made me realize that the Octo Expansion music fits oddly well with liminal space vibes
Thank you for the upload sunflower senpai

HOW IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE JUMPSCARE
Man I spy is truly nostalgic. Fact I wish I could go to my old elementary school at some point. Because now, as an almost adult, few places there barely feel real anymore. That being the kindergarten room and the library. I feel like those places were just fragments of a dream that is lost and almost forgotten. I would go to the library with classmates every Wednesday to listen to the librarian tell stories as well sat on carpet stairs, and then I would look at I Spy or giant poster sized books about animals. The shelves were weird too, some had hidden compartments or strange empty spaces that I felt if I went in them I'd end up in a narnia type of area.
And the kindergarten room! When I was that age, it felt like a gigantic utopian world completely different from any other. Huge with the ceiling high up, every activity all in one place, old box shapes computers, shelves everywhere each filled with different colorful objects, and a book room. That area never felt real. There was a set of stairs leading to a floating room with windows overlooking the entire room, comfy chairs, and boxes full of picture books.
Recess was all I remember then because it was still in the room but playful. If I were to take liminal photos my elementary school would be the spot
1:15:29 im so dizzy for traveling on a plane back to home and i couldnt sleep anything... i was almost sleeping just now watching the video and THAT KNOCK KNOCK ... you did woke me up
I was watching this while drawing art and when I heard the knocking I almost fell out of my chair
I get scared easily
I have experienced "liminal dreams" before. They don't last long because I wake up shortly after the realization that I don't know how I got here
it's a nice comfy day to watch this, im loving it so far
gotta be honest, my favorite channel that does liminal space comps is float. I first found out about this community from them and they just gotta great catalogue
Liminal spaces are creepy but also nostalgic and just make me feel a lot of emotions
I was at one of the buildings at my school, which had gray urban aesthetics and short identical hallways, similarly lit by spotlights in an art galleries. The longer I stayed in there, the more angled the halls became, some entrances became obscured from the way these lights lit every corridor. Sometimes I heard voices and footsteps, even human shadows flashed past me, but I didn't meet anyone. Eventually lights started to fade and I felt something behind me, so I chased the hallway lights until I couldn't keep up with the maze itself. I don't remember waking up.
I grew up watching Mr Blobby and even I don't know why he was popular. As a kid Mr Blobby visited my local supermarket and I kicked him.
So I want to add in a nightmare I had years ago- it's still really clear to me and trips me up from time to time.
My mom and I were touring a possible school/college for me to go to. It was late afternoon, very much golden hour, everything cast in this golden orange coloring. We went through this door in a hallway and it led to this isolated courtyard of sorts? The plants were dead like they would be in winter, and the two benches facing one another were very worn and sunbleached/splintery. We passed through to another hallway and it led to this area that was supposed to be a gym, but instead it was a platform that was surrounded by murky water like a lake or swamp. There were this shale rock outcrops that connected the platform to the terrain under the water, and in the distance you could see this large opening taking up most of the wall that lead outside and the lighting was more bright white. My mom went into the water for some reason and a giant catfish thing electrocuted her to death right before my eyes. There were no other people in that dream.
can’t believe omori wasn’t included on the iceberg-it’s chock full of liminal spaces (between the empty house, the hallucinations, white space, and black space)
Most eye care centres in Canada use the hot air ballon image but more of a distant version of it. I remember asking my eye doctor about it once and they said that the original image kept giving people the creeps or even nightmares for unknown reasons so they had to edit it to make it less realistic.
6:04 litteraly the rickroll place 😂😂😂😂
When I was young I remember reading some I spy books and playing their games like I spy fantasy and I spy fun house. They do get like a liminal vibe that you are like seen this picture before in your life
Hey 👋🏻 I’m Aussie too. A lot older than you but I just loved the 90’s and really miss that time.
I also have a strong nostalgia for the 1950’s although I wasn’t alive then. Of course it’s my romanticised version of the 50’s.
The 90’s really was wonderful 💖
56 seconds in and I've already recognized one! 00:56 is a condo in Gulfshores Alabama, called the Caribe. This was one of the indoor pools for kids.
Btw, love your vids Sunflower!
good to know! and thanks :D
Damn, this video came out great! Keep up the god tier work
So not technically liminal spaces but something i find to be very similar to that are evenings whether its being on a train or taking walk or walk or even just being at a zoo whatever the situation is they always have this feeling nostalgia/loneliness/peacefulness to them
Playing early multiplayer games in the early 00s, namely the half life 1&2 mods, and all their maps gave way to incredible liminal nostalgia
I have a huge fascination with liminal spaces and I love to note down my dreams. I have many dreams with liminal spaces but here’s one of my favorites:
“I had a dream where I was viewing this guy’s house or apartment on google maps. It felt really wrong to do, but the house was so liminal space-y, the front door opened to a square room with white walls and a gray floor I think, with no furniture. There was a door on the other side of the room. I went through it and it was another square empty room. I think there was one more empty room. Then I went through another door, to this dark, extremely claustrophobic hallway that was parallel to the walls with the door. It was very dark and the carpet was similar to arcade carpet. After that I believe I ended up in his bedroom which was still very minimalistic. I only remember a king sized bed with a gray comforter. I think I went into another room which might have been empty as well. Strange house.”
Also speaking of liminal space MMOs, animal jam comes to mind because it was my favorite MMO growing up. I remember going to empty worlds and everything feeling wrong. Also my brother and I used to play this one Roblox game. It was basically mad libs but in roblox, but the lobby was this room with a large play place. There was no music and the only ambience I remember is the bloxy cola can opening and sipping noises that seemed to come from nowhere. Very few players actually played the game and I think that added to the liminal vibe.
Update: I found (and played) that Roblox game again for the first time in years. Its called Story Generator and now there's music in the game but it still is very liminal space-y
Surprised there wasn't a silent hill entry since that game is filled with liminal spaces at time
I dreamt one time I was walking through an old abandoned high school. And every so often I would hear footsteps running around somewhere. Never behind me, nor ever around a corner. Just way off in the distance, I would hear walking or running, before it just faded off. And the reason I was walking through the school, I can't remember. I only remember that I had a strange urge to just walk forward. And each time I wound up in a hallway. It always felt longer then it should've been. Like after I passed a certain threshold, the hallway would just expand. So I would never reach the end. Another thing, was that I felt like I was being watched as soon as I entered the lunchroom. I would look around, yet see no one. It felt so alone there, yet, I knew someone, or something, was always just out of view. I wasn't scared of it, just deeply unsettled

Another backrooms/liminal space iceberg video will make a fine addition to my collection
amazing man, like always
Big thanks
The one think I love about liminal spaces is that there still popular obviously not as popular as they were in the summer of 2020, when liminal space compilations were booming, one person who did a comp. was DavidCrypt, who did theories on where The Backrooms image was taken and other stuff but privated all his vids except 2, liminal space comp part 1 and backrooms location. Now liminal spaces are still popular due to Kane Pixels with his Backrooms series and I’m in his discord and I still see liminal spaces posted on there which says they’re still popular in 2022
Yes they are. I have dealt with them so much in my lifetime and they are unnerving sometimes.
I once had a liminal dream. It's a dream I'll never forget. It was the middle of the night. I was alone in a huuuuuuge luxury hotel. Snow-white walls, broken up by large clean glass windows. Light wood floors. I never got inside any of the rooms, but I remember a cylindrical glass elevator in the middle of the wide corridor, surrounded by marble plant holders with small lush green bushes on them. On the roof there was a pool. The water was beautifully lit up and it was surrounded by white plastic lounge chairs. In the far distance across a field of night darkness you could see a large city with bright shining lights. If you listened very closely, you could hear the faint sounds of vehicles traversing the roads. The night sky was beautiful, you could see every star and a large glowing full moon shined in the sky. There was no sound but the echo of the footsteps inside the hotel, and even though there was no one there, I've never felt so comfortable.
The next day I woke up like I had never before or have since. So peaceful, so relaxed. One day I tried to return in my dreams, and did, though it was barely what the first experiemce brought. To this day I won't forget that beautiful place.
I actually get to see the hot air balloon image whenever I get an eye check! The first time I saw it, I was already an adult but it still freaked me out a little. They just emit a threatening aura I couldn't put into words.
So glad I found this channel
31:06 they're more scary because of the wind they blow in your eyes
I used to read eye spy all the time when i was a kid. I honestly forgot those books even existed. They were just so interesting to look at. I miss being a kid
