The Backrooms is the new hit viral trend in the horror community. How scary is it? COFFEE: topofthemornincoffee.com/ Twitter : / jacksepticeye Instagram : / jacksepticeye Edited by: / tr8ss
29:43 Fun detail: When the creature attacks us, if you go frame by frame, you actually notice that the camera is the only thing that fell. The creature actually took the guy.
It doesn't HAVE to be the creature, this is like a glitch in the system of our world, it's supposed to be unsettling, but things noclip through this universe, so possibly the camera noclipped out while the guy escaped through the exit
FYI, the backrooms was created through a rendering app. Kane has done an absolutely fantastic bit of work with this project. highly anxiety inducing for sure lol.
It would be really impressive if he filmed it with a real camera and then used those real camera movements to move the virtual camera in Blender. It looks so real
Looked like the Japanese house one was 3D as well. If you look close at texture detail it is sometimes less sharp than the edges of objects and the broken wall slats look like they have some rough edges from like photoscanning artifacts or something. Took me a while to be sure though so they did a great job making it look like that
@@shiawase8694 I've looked up the behind the scenes and damn that's an impressive amount of work. It must be a combination of the paper, some movements and Color correction / filters in the final that triggered my 3d brain. It somehow has that photoscanning artifacts look to a lot of the stuff. I guess that adds to the "unrealiness" and gives it a bit more of a creepy vibe
There's something naturally unsettling about abandoned and empty spaces, even without any blood staining the floors or shambling nightmares prowling the halls -- when we're in a space that's _supposed_ to be alive with activity, but it's _empty,_ it sets off the same instinctive impulse that makes us recoil from dead things. We feel the vacuum left behind by the absence of people, and it's _terrifying._ Both the house tour video and the Backrooms video disturb me on a more personal level, because they remind me of an experience I once had while taking a mid-afternoon walk through one of the old neighborhoods downtown: I was passing by some old houses in a neighborhood slated for redevelopment -- lots of boarded-over windows, overgrown plants creeping up the sides, the occasional tag, pretty much the sort of thing you'd find in any city on the planet these days -- when I felt compelled to stop in front of one of them, a 2.5-story with one of those attic dormers that people expect to see ghostly figures looking out of if the house was in a horror film. I didn't see any figure, but I could _feel_ something up there -- a churning, fluttering sensation, like a flock of birds in a panicked flight, or a massive school of fish balled together and thrashing against a shark. I'm not sure if I buy into the whole 'psychic/empath' thing, given that the science of it all is squishy at _best..._ but the vibe I got, and the mental image of some dark mass of _something_ behaving like that in the attic of that house, pushed me to speed-walk out of that neighborhood quick as I could. I think the area's been redeveloped by now, but I haven't been back. The crawling sense of _dread_ I felt that day, and that I've felt on occasion around other abandoned spaces... watching those two videos back-to-back brought on the _same reaction._
I believe that's called 'liminal space'. An abandoned or empty area that should be full of the activity but isnt. I'm starting to notice more creepy movies or videos are using liminal spaces to get that feeling of loneliness and anxiety to make the viewer more uncomfortable. I LOVE it. Theres even a website and youtube channel dedicated to finding liminal spaces for filming locations or just that strange feeling you were talking about.
@@gracekami4655 I tend to think of liminality as being more dreamlike than nightmarish -- it's less about the emptiness, and more about the transience, how nothing remains in the space for long. But I _have_ heard that notion of liminal spaces being unsettling before, aye.
For those who didn't know, keeping an altar with paintings/photos of the dead is actually a common thing in Japan. It's how the respect their lost loved ones. They also burn incense at the alter when they feel they are ready to move on, and occasionally leave offerings at the altar. They also leave offerings at their family's grave whenever they visit. If anybody wants to learn something else about how they handle death, look up Japanese funeral Lycoris Radiata.
Not many horror videos scare but the house tour was terrifying, so half way through i went and watched the behind the scenes lol and the way the creator just put happy go lucky music while pouring fake blood all over the bathroom floor is hilarious.
As far as I know, 8-bitryan was the first to get into it (recently), and now a lot of people are copying his thumbnail and what he did. (I’m not accusing jack of doing it, it is very similar though)
I adore Jack. He saw details I missed in that house walkthrough, but totally missed what I thought was the creepiest part, the body on the bed, and the text saying 'grandmother is here'
29:44 Something that normally bugs me about analog camera footage in media, is that its rare for the person to become detached from the camera to give the audience a clear protagonist of the story. Averting this trope entirely by ripping the man away from the camera, and seeing the man being ripped away is a great touch.
I honestly didn't notice that the guy had been ripped away from the camera 'til I saw this comment. I'd noticed the "monster's" shape had changed, had to re-watch and pause to see it had grabbed the guy and was pulling him away from the pit
That hallway one is really proof how new cultures can also offer a new perspective into horror Which was why even as a Chinese, I grew up being horrified by Western horror movies and Japanese horror movies as opposed to Chinese ones when I was younger cuz of the cultural unfamiliarity and the sense of the unknown
"The backrooms" is a concept floating around the internet since 2019. He didn't come up with the backrooms rather he made an adaptation in the form of a short film
Nothing is funnier than Sean seeing every tiny detail in the house tour, yet completely misses grandma just dead in her bed 😂😂 Edit: it’s at 16:28 for everyone asking.
The greatest thing about the first video is how well it’s shot. Most of the clips shown are fairly normal, not scary things, but the editing, the lighting, and the angles make it unsettling. I love film so much
My interpretation of My House Walkthrough is that the narrator is a wandering spirit who was killed (Along with their grandparents) in the Typhoon they keep mentioning. The house is abandoned and dilapidated because nobody lives there anymore. But the narrator keeps wandering around, recording a video of their home, because they don't know they are dead.
My personal headcannon of the Backrooms is like some sort of fractal space between realities. Just a neverending series of office hallways and empty rooms. You might accidentally slip into this reality in an area where our reality has a tear, even momentarily. They weren't constructed, they only appear familiar due to their proximity to our reality, which is why details in the short film like a gap too narrow for a person to pass through just sell the concept that much better to me. Amazing work!
I love how Jack was so focused on the random creaking sound, he didn't react to the text saying "My grandmother is here" or see the _actual fucking corpse right there_
The concept of “The Backrooms” has actually been around for a few years now and got pretty popular. Getting stuck there is basically what happens when a video game bugs and you fall off the map, but in real life
@@AdamJasper18 It's most likely just some good models of rooms, paired with authentic looking camera movement. The original backrooms image is def a real place, but I doubt there's a full building of just those rooms, especially when he gets to deeper levels
The home tour got me and I love it. Normally I don't find horror scary just cool and interesting. Some how it was just disturbing enough to get my anxiety through the roof. Them saying isn't here then saying they're here. Chills. More red the further we go. I love it
Jack, if you looked closely at the ending of the Backrooms, just right before the camera fell back into reality, you can see that the monster actually successfully grabbed onto the person and took him back into the Backrooms. So you can say, that only the camera made it out.
Honestly, the creatures kill the vibe for me. I love the aspect of a person being stuck in ...nothing. with barely any escape and it's endless (+ I like the damp floors for sum reason). Adding some random creature is well useless
@@toweldog355 To me its not useless because its like the person is trapped in a seemingly endless place alone but not exactly alone, and its way creepier to me that way. but I get what your saying.
@@anomalous_she honestly both sway to horrific. The idea of pure isolation for ever till death is scary by it self. That's fear. The creature provides dread, as if any moment and corner you could run into it. The backrooms could rival scp with how extensive the wiki is. I played the game too and yeah, the isolation part fucked with my brain I was actually scared I did some pshyolgocial damage
@@toweldog355 I kinda agree. I think that adding some scary monster makes it feel a bit generic, but maybe something more mysterious could be fitting. Like a shadow that you could only see out of the corner of your eye
It’s also pretty accurate to the lore of the back rooms from what I remember! Apparently the guy who made it is 16 aswell, which makes it so much more impressive
The back rooms as a concept aren’t specifically scary, but it’s when you actually immerse yourself and let yourself pretend that, for a second it’s actually real, it actually seems terrifying
Yes, the sense of dread building and total isolation is horrifying! I adore footage type horror most as they do very well in tricking the sub-conscious mind, therefore triggering the instinct of fear, vigilance, and caution.
And what makes the very concept of the environment much more terrifying than the monster itself, in my opinion, is the art of Liminal Space. Just the sight and feel of very open yet enclosed spaces, with muted colour palettes and nothing but the sound of silence or natural ambience, is just enough to install the highly unnerving sense of fight or flight and paranoia. That sinking, creeping feeling that follows you on your back as you look at images of places such as empty shopping malls and large, dark hallways. It is real and it’s terrifying; definitely one of my most favourite types of terror, or horror. A game that recently came out called Anemoiapolis is a great example of encapsulating the nature of this subject.
The scare from hearing it behind the guy is scary as well, before that you could hear it far away yelping and stuff, but the moment you hear that thing in your ear, it sends chills down. It's perfect. Just when you feel safe, the thing's right there, waiting for you to look. Also the sound is just perfect, sounds like a little "hey" when he's behind him
The house tour is an excellent example of how to make someone terrified without relying on jumpscares or over obvious tropes, but using the sheer power of atmosphere instead
less is more when it comes to scary stuff :D Subtle things like the moment of "grandma is here" jumpscare me more (I genuinly jumped the first time I watched that video lmao) are far more effective than those typical fnaf kind of jumpscares tbh
I really like these because they are so fucking scary, because its just like how you would look around yourself and just have a double take and suddenly you missed something a lil bit off. And I just try to look away and hear if Jack reacts and then scroll back in the vid to see for myself
Back rooms: a place outside reality that can only be accessible by “no clipping” out of reality or going to the lab that opened a way into the back rooms in the first place. There are several levels in the back rooms. The place the camera guy was most of the video was level 0. It is ellegedly called “The Lobby”. There are several monsters there and is currently being researched. I myself am also researching the back rooms too. And yes, there are games of this place.
@@jinxmonet1978 It's literally on the dudes channel (the one who made the house tour video) as well as it being a timecard that shows at the end of that video..
@@mackenziek830 Not sure how you guys aren't able to find it... .-. The video is called "My house walk-through", he showcases the title of the video at 7:06 and he literally says the name of the title at 7:13 If you search the title up on youtube, you'll literally see it as the first result.
kane deserves everything he’s getting but also deserves way more, he’s 16 and he produced a video with better quality than most netflix originals almost all by himself
Maybe in no time we will have a war of the worlds radio transmission situation but on film. Just like how people in the first cinemas thought the train was really comming at them.
@@FartLord09 It’s an infinite space. There is no end to it. It’s a fairly repetitive infinite space too. So ofc there will be levels. People can have dreams of said place as well. It doesn’t always show up as just a blank space with tons of walls. It can appear as anything. Any place at all.
"IT KEEPS SAYING GRANDMA ISN'T HERE" Jack... You totally missed the whole "grandma's skeleton laying in the bed" part because you were so focused on the hair. lol
@@jacksepticeye Most people did when they first watched it. It's such a carefully crafted detail that if you pay attention to anything else in the room and you are expecting the same subtitles you won't notice...
It’s incredible that Kane is only 16 and has the ability to make something like the backrooms We’re watching the man who will create the future of horror films
@@wikkedrider4928 it's because of your fear toward this backroom film that makes your subconscious mind influence your dream to make it a real and vivid dream. I myself once experienced those dreams... back then i was so scared of those beings that it started to appear in my dream. The key is don't think so much about it. or it will imprint on your subconscious mind :) ....sometimes i wonder how our brain can make our dreams become vivid and real like feeling.
@@wikkedrider4928 backrooms are not real for one main reason Collision detection Even if you were to no clip through something, you would not be able to fall through it because of how small the entitie’s size is, you would collide with the layer behind of under it and stay on solid ground
I think Jack completely missed when it showed the... thing on the bed and said "My grandmother is here" in the house tour. I'd have expected more of a reaction if he did see it considering his reaction to the grandfather. Everytime the guy in the Backrooms called out I sucked air through my teeth and flinched, knowing that that was such a bad idea. Drawing attention to yourself, letting anything in the area know you're there, just such terrible ideas.
I don’t know why he wouldn’t have commented on the grandma, especially with his reaction to grandpa, but I don’t know HOW he would have missed her on the bed.
Men props to Seán for hunting for the most serious videos on the internet, the very thing none of us are brave enough to do. Risking his heart to feed his CZcams children. Astonishing. 👏
Right? That game where if you look at the ceiling lights at all you lose some sanity and sometimes see a distorted black figure. You have to escape through a portal in a wall somewhere randomly.
@@brandonhedges719 well there is already a game called "The Backrooms", so it technically is also an indie game. Even though the game isn't the root of this creepypasta, so this video is not based off of an indie game, but still techincally also an indie game. And also, there are no exit in this place. The game doesn't even have an actual good ending.
I played online flash player game like that where you're stuck underground and eyes are on the walls and you have to find your way back up but fall down more and more if you make a wrong step so in the end this monster traps you between four walls if you lose and kills you. It's actually really hard to get back up.
someone needs to remake the backrooms indie game to be like kane’s rendition, it would be scarier than half the horror games out there. the grudge would fly out the window.
I love how he never once noticed the guy saying "grandmother is here" when he entered grandma's room and that she was in a rictus of death under a wet red sheet(?).
I love that Sean didn't even notice the dead body of the grandmother just, "Huh guess there's nothing here." lol. I'm so glad he finally watched My House Walkthrough though, it's SO cool and the effort that went into making it is bonkers.
@@kalay5651 I pretty much feel the same about it. It was kinda creepy the first few minutes, but after a while it got really boring and it wasn't really all that scary. At least not to me. I can definitley see the effort tho. But to be fair I don't think that any of those videos in this episode were particulary scary.
@@armaanb.6566 i thought of that too, but its actually more like places u ve never visited but u ve only dreamed of or u ve kept as a memory by watching a movie or even reading a book. Places so humanly but eerie at the same time
I don't really like the backrooms they give me the creeps it's really creative tho I just really love seeing others react to it, it makes me less scared
How Sean never saw Grandmother in the bed and the text that said "Grandmother is here" while the camera lingered on her corpse for like a solid minute is beyond me.
It is one thing to spam because you're a douchebag and just want money, but it is a whole new level of malice to attack a personal and delicate aspect of the human being you're spamming using memes, it is unnecessary and it makes me feel disgusted of this platform who """"""""""cares""""""""""" so much about the content creators that they delete the whole dislike button to """"""""""""protect"""""""" them, but does absolutely NOTHING to stop these spammers which are not only annoying anymore, but have reached the point of being genuinely harmful.
It must add a sense of authenticity to it to make the viewer fear the situation that the creator was going through, and when the creator is genuinely scared it makes it better. Awesome
Well, think of it this way. Even if _you're_ the one who built the place to look scary, you don't know every aspect. In a place like that, designed to peak the mind for fear and building dread, falling apart as though it might collapse, you still will be affected like that, and something else or someone else might've changed something without you knowing. Also, in that same sense, in such an area the mind will jump to more and more outlandish theories, such as the fact that you don't know what you might be invoking with whatever you're doing.
“I think an alter with like old pictures of people who are likely gone your just giving ghosts a doorway” Literally just described día de los muertos in a nutshell😂😂😂
They literally are doing just that lol. It's an Eastern culture to think the spirit of their loved ones or ancestors would watch over and protect them. That's why they would keep the ashes of their dead family inside their house. The Chinese and Koreans used to do this too, but I think the Japanese are the only ones who'd still do that.
The theory I have about The House Tour is not like he died but more so coming to reality with his grandparents' deaths. The deeper he gets into it the more horrifying it gets. Then the 'sweet dreams' at the end resembles putting the event to rest or in an ominous way that the event traumatized him and will haunt him forever.
"Did he just fall through the ground?" Yep! The Backrooms are where you go when you noclip through solid surfaces IRL like a video game. That's part of the horror, that you can just trip and fall into them and be lost forever.
There’s a place in one of the buildings on my college’s campus that’s in the girl’s bathroom that’s super weird. Like, it’s a normal bathroom but there’s like a side room in the bathroom with a chair and a door that leads to who knows where and a mirror, and it gives me backroom vibes. I dunno, it could be a maintenance closet but there isn’t any signage on the door and the floor switches from normal tile to carpet and the walls are a weird color
The backrooms is the scariest concept for me. Just the idea that you could randomly glitch out of reality to the backrooms of the matrix and be stuck there forever, is fueling my darkest fears.
exactly. i don’t think you need to add monsters or weird entities to make the backrooms scary. being trapped in a huge empty repeating space is horrifying in itself
I remember when I was about 5 years old I had some strange dreams. I had one where I was in a strange room with a table you'd see at a doctor's office and another dream where I was just scurrying down a hallway. I never thought anything of it or talked about it but I can safely say that I was in the backrooms. The colors were exactly the same and the general vibe was exactly the same as well. Mind you, this was probably in 2008...a long time before the backrooms became a thing online. Has anyone else seen the backrooms in their dreams? PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT ALONE IN THIS.
Fun fact: the location at 26:53 was crafted after one of the most famous liminal space/back rooms images. The original image (the unaltered, non-photoshopped version) was taken by a member of the development team for Crows Crows Crows, which is the company in charge of creating the Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe and contains some of the same people who worked on the original Stanley Parable: HD Remix. The photo was taken while on a work trip, the two silhouettes were him and a coworker in the reflection of a window while they took the pic. The reason this is so interesting is that The Stanley Parable is known for being set in a liminal, “Backrooms-esque” office space, but prior to the backrooms mythos being created. Isn’t that neat?
@@justacreecher428 That place actually exists, it's an inverse hotel somewhere in the UK I think Edit: for clarification the courtyard image is what I'm talking about
Their 'making of.." was pretty neat. Stuff like that (and these kind of videos) being an interest, it was fun trying to figure out what all they used, after I realized where the loop happens.
I got an ad from Feastables and I actually watched the whole thing when I saw it was a competition for Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. I regret none of the 17 minutes I spent watching the entire ad, followed up by Jack getting his first experience into the found footage of "The Backrooms" was such a bend and I'm so glad he was able to see a masterpiece such as this short film. Even now it still gives me chills down my spine and my heart races so fast.
I started laughing hard when Jack thought it said "grandmother was not here" but in fact she was just laying there in her bed and the subtitle clearly saying "Grandmother is here" and the only thing that scared Jack was Grandpa in the tub, lol XD
It's been touched on by so many people in such a short time... It's really weird to go back and see Jack experience the backrooms before it was really a thing. Even weirder that it's not even been that long ago.
365K subs back then...and look how far Kane's gone now. In just 2/3rds of a year this man gained over a *million* subscribers. He's almost at 2 million now. And he deserves every single one of em.
Jack: *looks from microscopic details*
Also Jack: *misses the very obvious dead body under a blanket on a bed*
Exactly what I was thinking
Yea. Grandmother IS here! She’s right there!

He may have talent but doesnt have any originality like who the fuck even thinks backrooms are scary anymore
@peanut butter water then you shouldn't have access to the internet yet

The house tour is proof that you don’t need jumpscares or loud noises to make something scary or unsettling.
Thanks for the heads up, i was expecting one
@@whoareyou3119 No problem.
Plus the dude made his house like that for the whole thing it’s just a loop

Jack: "Nothing that blatantly scary happened"
Also Jack: *Completely misses the 'grandma is here' scare because of the noise*
I cant believe so many people missed that.
i was bewildered at how he missed the blatantly obvious body under the sheet
I was wondering how he missed it...
I can't believe he missed it, like it's so noticeable

IKR LOL
I was wondering if anyone else saw it
Ikr? Noticed that immediately tbh
He missed the "Hair" Being everywhere, i feel like he would have been creeped out even more if he seen it movieng around in every shot
Same I was like did he really not catch dead grandma but called out the cuts?
Love how the backrooms is finally getting the recognition it deserves, it's incredible.
The greatest thing about the first video is how well it’s shot. Most of the clips shown are fairly normal, not scary things, but the editing, the lighting, and the angles make it unsettling. I love film so much
“This room has no taste” “Well then don’t go lickin the walls or anything” HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE THAT WAS GENIUS IM SO USING THAT

@DrakeoHD this Is why your dad left you
@@EduardoMartinez-rs3bu thx for saying something - those comments are honestly foul
My interpretation of My House Walkthrough is that the narrator is a wandering spirit who was killed (Along with their grandparents) in the Typhoon they keep mentioning. The house is abandoned and dilapidated because nobody lives there anymore. But the narrator keeps wandering around, recording a video of their home, because they don't know they are dead.
My personal headcannon of the Backrooms is like some sort of fractal space between realities. Just a neverending series of office hallways and empty rooms. You might accidentally slip into this reality in an area where our reality has a tear, even momentarily.
They weren't constructed, they only appear familiar due to their proximity to our reality, which is why details in the short film like a gap too narrow for a person to pass through just sell the concept that much better to me. Amazing work!
I love how Jack was so focused on the random creaking sound, he didn't react to the text saying "My grandmother is here" or see the _actual fucking corpse right there_

I had the same thought! Somehow I think he missed all the shots of her body.
He missed the subtitle of “my grandmother is here” as well.

Thanks man.
The videos are scary, but then Jack's there to always make it funny.
The concept of “The Backrooms” has actually been around for a few years now and got pretty popular. Getting stuck there is basically what happens when a video game bugs and you fall off the map, but in real life
It would be funny

It seems like they even went to the location of one of the original images used as the backrooms. If it's not, they did an amazing job replicating it.
@@AdamJasper18 It's most likely just some good models of rooms, paired with authentic looking camera movement. The original backrooms image is def a real place, but I doubt there's a full building of just those rooms, especially when he gets to deeper levels

The home tour got me and I love it. Normally I don't find horror scary just cool and interesting. Some how it was just disturbing enough to get my anxiety through the roof. Them saying isn't here then saying they're here. Chills. More red the further we go. I love it
Jack, if you looked closely at the ending of the Backrooms, just right before the camera fell back into reality, you can see that the monster actually successfully grabbed onto the person and took him back into the Backrooms. So you can say, that only the camera made it out.

i'd watch a whole of sean reacting to historical AOT footage and the new backrooms videos
The back rooms storylines out there have always terrified me even ignoring the creatures that inhabit them, that video is so well done
Honestly, the creatures kill the vibe for me. I love the aspect of a person being stuck in ...nothing. with barely any escape and it's endless (+ I like the damp floors for sum reason). Adding some random creature is well useless
@@toweldog355 To me its not useless because its like the person is trapped in a seemingly endless place alone but not exactly alone, and its way creepier to me that way. but I get what your saying.
@@anomalous_she honestly both sway to horrific. The idea of pure isolation for ever till death is scary by it self. That's fear.

The back rooms as a concept aren’t specifically scary, but it’s when you actually immerse yourself and let yourself pretend that, for a second it’s actually real, it actually seems terrifying
Wet empty carpet rooms are pretty spooky
Yes, the sense of dread building and total isolation is horrifying! I adore footage type horror most as they do very well in tricking the sub-conscious mind, therefore triggering the instinct of fear, vigilance, and caution.
I love the backrooms as a concept I think its great.
And what makes the very concept of the environment much more terrifying than the monster itself, in my opinion, is the art of Liminal Space. Just the sight and feel of very open yet enclosed spaces, with muted colour palettes and nothing but the sound of silence or natural ambience, is just enough to install the highly unnerving sense of fight or flight and paranoia. That sinking, creeping feeling that follows you on your back as you look at images of places such as empty shopping malls and large, dark hallways. It is real and it’s terrifying; definitely one of my most favourite types of terror, or horror. A game that recently came out called Anemoiapolis is a great example of encapsulating the nature of this subject.
Nothing even compares to mandela catalogue. After watching that nothing scares me really.
I love how he said about demons “they’re always opening doors but never closing them, they’re so rude
24:14 🤣 he sounded like an encouraging mom telling her son to go after the girl he likes
The monster was quiet... It *LEARNED* from it's first failed hunt. To me, that is the creepiest thing, when the monster learns and adapts.
The scare from hearing it behind the guy is scary as well, before that you could hear it far away yelping and stuff, but the moment you hear that thing in your ear, it sends chills down. It's perfect. Just when you feel safe, the thing's right there, waiting for you to look. Also the sound is just perfect, sounds like a little "hey" when he's behind him
Like how tigers are learning to attack people regardless
Took me a very long time to realize that the yellow rooms weren't just a filming cool location, but in fact were all CGI! Amazing work KanePixels!
oh my god that fucking image of the hallway leading to nothing and the blue light in the bg? burned into my soul.

when you’re an editor you can’t help but see it, even when you don’t want to lol
I mean, if you edit videos you can't help but see it, really annoying but you can't ignore it
@@sarahbearbabygirl nvm this guy said the same shit
Yep, that's just the way. It's how I watch anolog horror pretty much all the time. XD
I also think its probably a self-preservation tactic from fear and stress😅
The house tour is an excellent example of how to make someone terrified without relying on jumpscares or over obvious tropes, but using the sheer power of atmosphere instead
less is more when it comes to scary stuff :D
Subtle things like the moment of "grandma is here" jumpscare me more (I genuinly jumped the first time I watched that video lmao) are far more effective than those typical fnaf kind of jumpscares tbh
I really like these because they are so fucking scary, because its just like how you would look around yourself and just have a double take and suddenly you missed something a lil bit off. And I just try to look away and hear if Jack reacts and then scroll back in the vid to see for myself
Back rooms: a place outside reality that can only be accessible by “no clipping” out of reality or going to the lab that opened a way into the back rooms in the first place. There are several levels in the back rooms. The place the camera guy was most of the video was level 0. It is ellegedly called “The Lobby”. There are several monsters there and is currently being researched. I myself am also researching the back rooms too. And yes, there are games of this place.

@@FartLord09 its still creepy that your still gonna be stuck there forever because there are alot of levels there.
@@FartLord09 It’s an infinite space. There is no end to it. It’s a fairly repetitive infinite space too. So ofc there will be levels. People can have dreams of said place as well. It doesn’t always show up as just a blank space with tons of walls. It can appear as anything. Any place at all.
To be honest, I watch horror stuff religiously and just heard of them this week
Yeah, but I’m pretty sure level one has no entities so I’m confused why there are some there.

I think Jack completely missed when it showed the... thing on the bed and said "My grandmother is here" in the house tour. I'd have expected more of a reaction if he did see it considering his reaction to the grandfather.
Everytime the guy in the Backrooms called out I sucked air through my teeth and flinched, knowing that that was such a bad idea. Drawing attention to yourself, letting anything in the area know you're there, just such terrible ideas.
yeah i was so thrown off when he just didn't comment on it at all lol like its a whole grandma and he's talking about hair
Yes! I was in stitches🤣😂🤣 I love sean
I don’t know why he wouldn’t have commented on the grandma, especially with his reaction to grandpa, but I don’t know HOW he would have missed her on the bed.
I thought I was just imagining shit or something but I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw it and was confused that he didn't react lol

"it looks like an indie horror games"

Right? That game where if you look at the ceiling lights at all you lose some sanity and sometimes see a distorted black figure. You have to escape through a portal in a wall somewhere randomly.
@@brandonhedges719 well there is already a game called "The Backrooms", so it technically is also an indie game. Even though the game isn't the root of this creepypasta, so this video is not based off of an indie game, but still techincally also an indie game. And also, there are no exit in this place. The game doesn't even have an actual good ending.
I played online flash player game like that where you're stuck underground and eyes are on the walls and you have to find your way back up but fall down more and more if you make a wrong step so in the end this monster traps you between four walls if you lose and kills you. It's actually really hard to get back up.
Backrooms is buggin
someone needs to remake the backrooms indie game to be like kane’s rendition, it would be scarier than half the horror games out there. the grudge would fly out the window.

The making of “My house walk-through” is fascinating as well, the creator was apparently quite scared during the process of filming.
Damn imagine creating something scary and still be scared of your own project that shit is like the highest compliment you could get
It must add a sense of authenticity to it to make the viewer fear the situation that the creator was going through, and when the creator is genuinely scared it makes it better. Awesome
I was thinking about that as I watched, I'm not sure I could make something genuinely terrifying because I would be too scared myself.
@@ironavenger2515 dude fr I'd wimp out and just leave especially if it wasn't all cgi or something like that
Well, think of it this way. Even if _you're_ the one who built the place to look scary, you don't know every aspect. In a place like that, designed to peak the mind for fear and building dread, falling apart as though it might collapse, you still will be affected like that, and something else or someone else might've changed something without you knowing. Also, in that same sense, in such an area the mind will jump to more and more outlandish theories, such as the fact that you don't know what you might be invoking with whatever you're doing.
“I think an alter with like old pictures of people who are likely gone your just giving ghosts a doorway” Literally just described día de los muertos in a nutshell😂😂😂
Context is everything lol
Agreed... Not me having an altar for my grandma
I kept thinking of the anime Another for some reason.
They literally are doing just that lol. It's an Eastern culture to think the spirit of their loved ones or ancestors would watch over and protect them. That's why they would keep the ashes of their dead family inside their house.
The Chinese and Koreans used to do this too, but I think the Japanese are the only ones who'd still do that.
The theory I have about The House Tour is not like he died but more so coming to reality with his grandparents' deaths. The deeper he gets into it the more horrifying it gets. Then the 'sweet dreams' at the end resembles putting the event to rest or in an ominous way that the event traumatized him and will haunt him forever.
Jack: Omg this Video is so well made
Also Jack: Theres a hidden edit, there’s one, another
"Did he just fall through the ground?" Yep! The Backrooms are where you go when you noclip through solid surfaces IRL like a video game. That's part of the horror, that you can just trip and fall into them and be lost forever.
There’s a place in one of the buildings on my college’s campus that’s in the girl’s bathroom that’s super weird. Like, it’s a normal bathroom but there’s like a side room in the bathroom with a chair and a door that leads to who knows where and a mirror, and it gives me backroom vibes. I dunno, it could be a maintenance closet but there isn’t any signage on the door and the floor switches from normal tile to carpet and the walls are a weird color
The backrooms is the scariest concept for me. Just the idea that you could randomly glitch out of reality to the backrooms of the matrix and be stuck there forever, is fueling my darkest fears.
exactly. i don’t think you need to add monsters or weird entities to make the backrooms scary. being trapped in a huge empty repeating space is horrifying in itself
Don't panic! Just join the backrooms party! =)
you can escape the backrooms once you're in it lol, and theres a lot of ways on how to.

I genuinely liked these videos. Do more please and thank you. Cause you know grandmother is here after all.
I remember when I was about 5 years old I had some strange dreams. I had one where I was in a strange room with a table you'd see at a doctor's office and another dream where I was just scurrying down a hallway. I never thought anything of it or talked about it but I can safely say that I was in the backrooms. The colors were exactly the same and the general vibe was exactly the same as well. Mind you, this was probably in 2008...a long time before the backrooms became a thing online. Has anyone else seen the backrooms in their dreams? PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT ALONE IN THIS.
Honestly I think I had a dream about them when I was really little but I can't remember the details
i’m pretty sure a lot of the levels in the backrooms are based off creepy and similar dreams people have had, or that’s what i’ve been told
Fun fact: the location at 26:53 was crafted after one of the most famous liminal space/back rooms images. The original image (the unaltered, non-photoshopped version) was taken by a member of the development team for Crows Crows Crows, which is the company in charge of creating the Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe and contains some of the same people who worked on the original Stanley Parable: HD Remix. The photo was taken while on a work trip, the two silhouettes were him and a coworker in the reflection of a window while they took the pic. The reason this is so interesting is that The Stanley Parable is known for being set in a liminal, “Backrooms-esque” office space, but prior to the backrooms mythos being created. Isn’t that neat?
Absolutely

That "My House Walkthrough" is one of my favourite atmospheric short horror clips on the internet. I'm glad you watched it with us and enjoyed it!

I got an ad from Feastables and I actually watched the whole thing when I saw it was a competition for Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.
I regret none of the 17 minutes I spent watching the entire ad, followed up by Jack getting his first experience into the found footage of "The Backrooms" was such a bend and I'm so glad he was able to see a masterpiece such as this short film. Even now it still gives me chills down my spine and my heart races so fast.
I started laughing hard when Jack thought it said "grandmother was not here" but in fact she was just laying there in her bed and the subtitle clearly saying "Grandmother is here" and the only thing that scared Jack was Grandpa in the tub, lol XD
And then he even read some of the comments pointing out the "grandmother is here" and still only talked about grandpa in the tub :D
It's been touched on by so many people in such a short time... It's really weird to go back and see Jack experience the backrooms before it was really a thing. Even weirder that it's not even been that long ago.
365K subs back then...and look how far Kane's gone now. In just 2/3rds of a year this man gained over a *million* subscribers. He's almost at 2 million now. And he deserves every single one of em.
