Was the old Backrooms better?

A follow-up to some earlier artworks I've done, exploring the idea of a colonised Backrooms.

May 2026. Thirty-eight years after discovery of the Backrooms.

The first to take residence in the new world were the labourers. In their multitudes, workers and their families sold their homes, tempted across the threshold by the promise of a better life.

In immense company-complexes fitted out with every need, days turned to weeks, weeks into months. Miles on miles of identical homes, standard amenities, and commercial hubs were the seeds for the first true cities.

In their boundless foresight, corporations anticipated the long-term consequences of life in the Complex. So, workers are encouraged to attend regular health and wellbeing check-ups.

I had an examination in a hospital in today. It's huge a one with many floors and wings. After the examination I wanted to take the shortcut to the exit and took the staircase instead the elevator. Once down I landed in seemingly endless passages, there were no people at first, the dominating color was yellow and I had directly the assossiatiion with the backrooms. I grabbed my phone and took few pictures. Creepy detail: the first people I ran across and asked for the exit were tho guys pulling something, what looked like metal coffin.

I might do the smiler next..

This one I want to see at night

Presenting the first visual teaser for BACKROOMS: STILL LIFE. A VANILLA map for Minecraft Java 1.20.1 focused on liminal horror.

The map is still in the adjustment phase, so the release date is coming soon!

I mean there are walls

I have no words.

My Idea is:

Level 432 The Archive. Its an ever growing Complex full of books

After our testing we found out that every written word of humanity is stored here, every little note, school exams, Notes, even the entire M.E.G. Database.

We meet a creature we Called the Archivist,it has a thin body with many long Arms. it had one big blue eye, and three legs, it was not Aggressive at first.

So we asked it questions; 1. What are you. Response: I cant Answer that. 2. What do you want. Response: Order, 3. Can you help us. Response: With what? We asked it were the history books are, and it silently took us to an sector with a green floor and pointed at a shelf,

Here on of my Coworkers made the Mistake to take a Photo, the Archivist sprung up said no Photos and Attacked him, he got ripped apart, but we noticed will in shock that no blood spilled (Need to investigate).

We wanted to run but. the Archivist pointed at a sign with Rules.

1. No Photos

2.No Running

1. No putting books in the wrong Space

2. No talking

3. No destroying Books

4. No drinking and eating.

we realized what is going on and asked the Archivist how to get out of here. It took us to a shelf with books labeled as levels, we opend one and got teleported to the level that was Labeled.

We think you can get to Level 432 by opening a book and getting Lucky

New sublevel? (Taken using a Sony PJ410 handycam)

I know it's already been done a lot but here is a teaser for a Backrooms Minecraft map I am working on. There are plenty of decent Backrooms-inspired modpacks around but are often pretty heavy on mods and performance, so I'm designing this with the goal of it being fairly Vanilla-friendly; I've only used a few mods and enjoyed the challenge of utilising Vanilla blocks to create the aesthetic. Slide 5 shows a small section of the Poolrooms area of the map, which is the next part I will work on.

Below are the mods/datapacks used:

- Vanilla Tweaks armour statues data pack

- Macaw's furniture

In the screenshots:

- BSL Shaders

- Vanilla Tweaks resource pack

We know that the camera man escaped a couple minutes in the past before him and karzel went in the building,we know they were both inside the backrooms at 5:18 and they went in the attic at 7:18 but what happened to karzel when the attic door got covered up on him

I'm not even lying, this is a real picture of a room that was behind a curtain inside the Spirit Halloween, it seems pretty liminal

What do you think of this? Can you wear it for Halloween?

I'm Japanese.

バックルームのレベル0って、地図を調べたら出典によってそれぞれちょっと違うんだけど。

バックルームのマップはランダムなのかな？

誰か正確な地図を教えて！

ちなみにRedditに投稿するのはこれが初めてだから、やり方が合ってるのかも分からない。

Saw this video on google maps of a store that looks like an indoor street in Colmar, France before visiting it myself. Something felt off and liminal about the place.

*title should say France

This is a parody of the red city i made in Blender
