What I find most impressive about this video is the subtle camera movements. It really really makes it seem like a real life recording of someone holding an old vcr camera.
This is kind of creepy and scared to me at the same time I don't know if I have a mix of feelings or emotions but I feel like it's abandoned at this point
@@brightmacsworld8353 it's either Kim ks kids pool under the house or the inside of Kim ks sole, in her pleather one piece outfits w shoes attached like that red body suit w shoes built in
The best part for me is the constant gratification of that “what is this place” moment, and unlike normal buildings the next turn always unfolds into something even more uncanny and curious. Familiar textures with nonsensical structures is perfect, just like a dream
This actually captures what originally made the backrooms so unsettling to me. Not the nearly immediate threat of some monster, but rather the isolation and the otherworldly interior design that just feels so empty
@@Gameboy-Unboxings the back rooms It's basically the same concept as this except it's like an office building. Look it up there's tons of videos on UA-cam
You are not the master of this domain, which is seemingly endless and unimpeded. Inescapable. Like a dream you can't wake up from. The kind of dream when you try to speak but your voice never comes out. A standing presence that you sense but can never witness. A non euclidean realm where the points are made up and the rules don't matter, WELCOME TO WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY
Same here. I sometimes have dreams where I'm in this place that's like an amusement park, or at least one of its rides. There are slightly dark rooms that are connected with different colored slides. The floor is this black carpet with colorful shapes, 90s style. Echoes from memories past.
So far my favorite take on the backrooms As the horror isn't a big video game scenario with a monster chasing you; but rather a slow desert-esque "you are kinda already dead, explore and get as far as you can" sort of deal, with a silent creep that follows silently and carefully instead as the monster
The monsters in other iterations on the backrooms are interesting as well, but at the end of the day, I agree. They aren't truly the focus of the backrooms, the environment is. Otherwise it might as well just be SCP - Pocket Dimension Version. The dread of exploring something that seems so similar to things created by humans, but so very impossible and completely deserted, like waking up and finding everyone else on the planet had disappeared and all of creation had been warped. Like a lucid dream you'll never wake from.. that's what I find interesting about the backrooms.
@@Femroe It's easy to instill fear with monsters and jump scares and the like but to instill fear through architecture and enviroments I think is really impressive.
Legitimately I became disinterested in the backrooms stuff because of videos with monsters and jump scares. I saw a vid of someone explain backrooms and love SCP stuff so checked it out. This is actually good tho it's a shame UA-cam is flooded with goofy ones with jump scares and monsters.
yes i think if you want to expand on the backrooms it is more about creating an infinite maze of new but equally empty liminal spaces. adding entities and people kinda ruins it, at most it would be better to only see traces of what might be. -Hearing disembodied and muffled chatter, but unable to find the source as if it is leaking in from the real world, maybe even a glimpse through a peephole/keyhole into a bustling food court but unable to be seen or heard or escape. -just enough soggy carpet water and half eaten granola bars in drawers and trashcans to keep yourself going as long as you keep moving (and you will to live can hold out), no matter how futile it probably all is. -just enough un-explained noises to keep you from escaping to restful sleep.
When I was a little kid I had a dream about finding a doorway in my closet that led to an alternate version of my room, where things were almost the same but not quite. Following yet another doorway led me to an even stranger version of my room. I kept following doorways, finding increasingly strange and warped spaces until it didn't resemble my house at all. All the while the sound of pulsing machinery could be heard softly in the background, but it would get louder and louder each time I would go "deeper" in. The final few rooms looked very similar to what you have created here. Pretty eerie.
@@Sycon-X No, you do not "travel to other worlds in your dreams" buddy, it's just an unfamiliar landscape that your brain doesn't recognize so you perceive it as "another world"
@@gonzoradio1007 yes that’s what I ment with other worlds… Meaning to be able to Astral Project, couldn’t remember Astral Projection when I was writing my comment. But I’m sure able to, I recon you as well?
This is what I want from the backrooms/poolrooms: no running, no screaming, no jumpscares, no unnecessary generic monsters. Just a generally nostalgic-yet-otherworldly and slightly creepy vibe of the backrooms. And you get this vibe. Great video. Thank you!
The threat of the poolrooms is less imminent but not less real. Will you die from starvation?. Thirst? An infection or contaminated water. Or will you slip and fall? Will you find a place to sleep? Will you get stuck in a place where the water rises to the ceiling. Will you ever get out? If you dont lose your sanity first. No less nervewrecking then a monster waiting around the next corner to smash you.
I agree. I liked the concept of the backrooms, but when I actually read/watched about the full lore it just felt like an amateur video game and just lost me.
@@Foxfire_forty-nine i mean I love his work, but he's just working within the established mythos. With the factions of people and almond milk and all that. I just enjoy the simplicity of empty, endless liminal spaces. The feeling of isolation and emptiness is the whole point which is supremely undercut by the presence of legions of human inhabitants and rpg-style monsters.
I much prefer subtleties like that than some monster, although I do understand the feeling of being chased gets your blood flowing. Still, I like these videos and the games that rely more on the atmosphere and small events that can happen like the chair or some strange distant noises.. the mystery lets your mind make up what it could be, like reading a book.
I think I now get why we all collectively have this creepy nostalgic memory. It’s the vibe of being at a hotel, walking through the long hallways at night which are always oddly quite and empty. And swimming at hotel pools has an off vibe as well.
Yes, thought the same. I felt calm watching this, even if it is a little eerie. The buzz of the fluorescent lights, footsteps, the patterns of the tiles, walls, etc.
@@CkcRyshis67 one can find it calming to explore such places virtually or vicariously through the eyes of the cameraman. The only reason being that unlike someone who is trapped and doomed for eternity in there we have the freedom of having both worlds.
People seem to be evenly split on the "monsters/no monsters" thing. I think that the backrooms/poolrooms can be done well with them or without them. I think that any kind of entity encounter in the backrooms should more play on the psychological experience of wandering a place like that. Like, imagine wandering for hours through a place like that and *then* you slowly start to hear things. I love this genre of videos.
There are supposed to be places with no entities. That way when you do hear, see, smell, taste, and feel things that you think are a monster hut aren’t you’re psyching yourself out i. A place that is completely safe, meanwhile there are locations where monsters are and you have to think, even if it is ever so slightly even if it’s against your natural inclinations, “is dying to this monster better than being lost in these rooms, wandering alone?” The monsters accent the mental problems rather than being the sole cause of them (for the most part) that is how I would do the backrooms.
The monsters ruin everything. It just ends up with having to show more and more and everytime you do you end up making it less mysterious. Kind of like how Cloverfield never really showed the monsters
@@luman1109 True, nice to see others that agree with this statement, more backrooms videos would be just better with less monsters or at the very least them not actively hunting the camera guy
The concept of the backrooms in the very beginning, even before the popular video series, was always about applying the uncanny valley theory to spaces. Familiar yet off, not posing any real threat but still giving fear. Sure lots of people took this uncanniness and fear and ran with it but the core idea has always been about the space itself.
I think this is my favorite Poolrooms video so far, if only for the fact that there are faint promises of freedom scattered all over it that never come to fruition. You keep seeing what looks like sunlight just around a corner, only to find when you get there that it's just a slightly different shade of fluorescent light, or the reflection off a differently-colored tile. Those weird little "windows" are everywhere, suggesting the existence of an outside world, but the blackout curtains keep you from seeing what's on the other side and their locations don't seem to make sense with the building's geometry. You find a bigger window that seems to offer some view out of the facility, but all you see is a closed space surrounded by all the poolrooms you've just waded through, and it's hard to tell if the light above is the sky or just more artificial lighting. Then, as if to mock you, you stumble into a room decorated with a semblance of a blue summer sky, containing three brightly-colored slides that descend from... nowhere, apparently. There's a frustrating sense that you're constantly just on the verge of escape, but your hopes are dashed at every turn when nothing is as it appeared from a distance. The overturned chair at the end is the final unsettling touch, as you start to realize that not only is there no way out, something else might be in there with you. Excellent work man, hats off to you!
Oh you're so right. Also like the stairs going up. It feels like you finally found the escape from the pool rooms only to end up in liminal hotel space. And it wouldn't be the same feeling if the stairs led down.
it feels like everything is trying to make you think other things the opposite of what's there, on purpose, as to throw you off when the real thing comes
YEAH YEAH ! my favorite shot is at 4:30, because up until that point we've seen multiple hotel room looking windows blacked out with curtains, suggesting that even if there's no outside world behind them to escape to, maybe there's some sort of room w/ amenities to rest in, with a bed and a minifridge and a bathroom. but then we end up on the other side of one of those windows, and there's nothing there. no room. just more pool. and while we're processing the lack of anything, we get to stare out the window at even more windows, knowing that there's nothing behind any of them but more infinite pool. it rips away even the sense of hope for rest if not escape
of all the backroom content i've consumed this series is definitely my favorite. the repositioned wall or that tiny knocked over chair at the end is the perfect amount of scare. no monsters, just eerie, lonely, exploration with the occasional wtf moment is all i want haha.
I'm now realizing this is a common sentiment but this legit feels like you've filmed a dream- it's an incredibly odd and unnerving feeling that I applaud you for
The nostalgia hits me hard in this one. Reminds me of being a small toddler and being taken to the indoor pool. Both comforting and unsettling. The smooth tiles, the calm warm water, the fear of being sucked into pool filters or sinking to the bottom of the water and being unable to surface. Also the lack of windows.
Those pool filters are no joke, btw. I can think of at least a few accidents in pools and fountains that killed someone in a very horrible way. They get too powerful or whatever. And they'll grab and hold anything they get. Drowning is the least of your issues. Actually. One fountain killed several people trying to help
I've got to say, and I'm amazed there aren't more people in the comments saying this, the animation quality here is absolutely incredible. I know it's working with a limited palette, but the final effect is so convincing, it's genuinely amazing. If this is the work of one person alone I'm absolutely stunned.
I legit thought this was real and was wondering if it was a flooded abandoned school at first lol then I saw the actual pool ladders and then thought “why did someone build this?” Then I saw ur comment and realized it’s not real lol omg
Dude…so triggering, literally the most uncomfortable thing I’ve seen in a long time! The atmosphere, claustrophobia, emptiness, murky water and weird geometry combined make this extremely unsettling. Well done!
You've single handedly made me download blender and start trying to learn how to use it. Once you start learning you appreciate how high quality this is even more. I hope it inspires more people to create similar backrooms videos like this. I don't really care for the entities. They feel more like a cheap jumpscare. These allow for much more imagination and existential dread and are just way more fun to watch.
I dunno what's wrong with me, but if I somehow entered the poolrooms, I'd want to jump down that well or something at 6:10. Since I would know that I am doomed, I would think that it doesn't matter whether I die or not doing so, but jumping from heights is so fun
The previous "level" of the pools in your last video I found to be quite quaint, and it kinda made me want to go venture into the backrooms myself. But this one, even though it still has the same pool theme, feels much more scarier and eerie. The atmosphere is so repulsing, yet warm, I can't believe how you managed to pull this off! Keep making these great videos!
The first half of the video gives me those hotel pool vibes, and the children's pool room is downright nostalgic horror! I want to see what wierd architecture this explorer stumbles upon next. Your work is phenomenal!
This was such a great video. This whole video manage to capture the feeling of loneliness, isolation and also gives the feeling of hopelessnes. No matter how long he walks, he will never be able to find the exit. Watching this gives the feeling that the backroom itself is alive
I love when there are no monsters seen. It’s that foreboding, quiet horror you sometimes have in your dreams about places like this. There’s something so beautiful about those dreams too. Beautiful and devastating.
That’s what made Michael Myers scary in Halloween is that he would stalk you and you could not really she him that well all the time the back rooms would be a serial killers playground for hunting and stalking there game 🩸🔪🎃
Honestly, I love the poolrooms/backrooms concept. For whatever reason it's super comforting to me and brings a sense of longing and nostalgia. Like wandering empty hallways in a hotel, a school or office after hours, a store just before it closes, etc. Just love the vibe. 👍
One time, I was in Tokyo just after a typhoon passed through. The streets were empty, the stores were all closed but the mall was open to entry. It felt so surreal yet comforting.
Am I glad that I'm not the only freak 😂 so many things that are considered Horror look like my grandpa's abandoned poultry farm and his mansion. I feel nostalgia instead of horror.
Ah, another from Matt Studios. Truly artful. The feelings that are created while watching this video… I absolutely love it. Please make more of these, they make my day
This is so phenomenal. It’s how some of the most intense dreams look and you’ve managed to capture this unsettling feeling of a distorted reality. I especially enjoy the odd placement of architecture and the random chairs, making the viewer feels the unease of questioning if this place was really meant for this many people or created for making just one person go insane. That “no!” in the beginning actually put me on edge and set the tone for the rest of the video too
He makes each room so unique, as if it truly is generated by some artificial intelligence or alternate reality that's trying to appear human and create human spaces but is just off and uncanny. So insanely eerie.
This was a random YT recommendation and it took me a minute to figure out is this was real footage or not. The modeled spaces are so good, especially after getting the "old VHS tape" treatment. The modeling looks like it took a long time, but even more the sound design is great too. They fit perfectly together. A very somber exploration video.
This is exactly like the dreams I used to have as a child. Something about the unusual architecture and indoor pools with strange shapes... What I admire the most is that you don't dumb-it-down for the masses with monsters, screams, or other low-brow crap. We're just allowed to take in the strangely familiar scenery which is enough to trigger uneasy quesions... Why is that massive hole there without any safety barrier? What's behind that dark corner? Why are those chairs placed there... Who would be sitting there? Was this place ever busy, bustling with laughing children?
Original backroom was supposed to be trapped in yellow office rooms. Backroom "levels" was a fan version from original backroom. But, i love the fan version concept. It makes me want to explore the secret of backroom
@@rexdev4489 Both of them kinda work in horror in their own way. The classic one works on the fear of the unknown, while the fanmade one works like that too, it's just that there's more places to go. The thing that people kinda hate the level stuff it's because it's all classified and archived, like an actual SCP.
@@rexdev4489 The Poolrooms actually started as a seperate thing from the Backrooms, a series of pictures called Dreaming Pools. I reckon the scariest thing about the poolrooms is that the water never goes stagnant, because there's absolutely no other life there. Never mind monsters, there's not even bacteria. Anybody who gets lost there is truly alone.
I really enjoy how you've commingled different levels together in this one. I think it actually enhances the spookiness significantly by decreasing the predictability.
There's a popular theory that the Backrooms are generated by some alien super-advanced AI system that uses our world as a template, but has no practical understanding of it. The result is this weird mess of rooms that from our perspective make zero sense. Entities encountered in the Backrooms could as well be AI attempting to recreate animals and humans, but failing catastrophically resulting in these abominations.
That actually looks really wrong with having what are essentially office spaces invaded by swimming pools. When it was just essentially big infinite swimming pools it honestly looks like a pretty fun place to hang out.
@@Mortablunt The end especially, just a tiny pool in one corner of a big carpeted room. It looks like things from real life, but they don't go together like that!
This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20. Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God. Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!
These are ripped straight from my nightmares XD I’m not even scared of pools but in dreams they’re the most unsettling and scary thing I come across and they look a lot like this
I had SO many dreams about pools as a kid this takes me back. It would lie right inbetween a dream and a nightmare. Thanks for making this, the backrooms concept is way cooler when not oversensationalized.
I have weird dreams not only of exploring houses with tons of new rooms, always finding new ones but never the way out, but also dreams where I’m swimming and having to hold my breath and freaking out thinking going to run out of air RIGHT before I reach the surface which just so happens to always be out of my reach. Every time I try to get to the surface and can’t make it, I think I’m going to drown and have it be the end of me, I give up and just inhale the water only to discover that I can breathe under water and had nothing to worry about the whole time. This here reminds me of both those types of dreams blended together.
Returning to this video once again and all i can say is that this is a piece of art. There is no other video I have encountered that really captures the essence of the backrooms as well as this one. It invokes a feeling of mystery and fascination of the world which we just lose when we grow up and our view of the once magical world tranforms into something stale trough years of academia. It invokes the feeling of nostalgia like youre glimpsing into the world with a childs imaginative eyes but you know that, that simple and pure curiosness and raw wonder isnt there anymore and it leaves you with a empty and slightly sad feeling.
Its like exploring a long forgetten dream, lost in the endless void of other forgotten dreams for a moment it has been ressurected from its never ending lonliness and now you can once again explore its endless surreal hallways winding in all direction and you, just like in a dream, is its only visitor and when you leave, the endless halls of dimmed rooms and the monotous sound of dripping water and lamps buzzing will also cease to exist, once again leaving the waken world and return to an endless slumber.
This channel is the closest I have seen anyone come to matching the eerieness of Kane's environments. Extremely atmospheric and creatively done. The concept of the backrooms changing and shifting in your canon is also quite interesting
Entities and lore are cool and all, but can we appreciate the mood that absolute loneliness creates? It’s such a strong feeling that is too addictive to stop watching.
Sound design really needs some work. Matt, If you read this consider walking through a real place and recording your walking noises Also find an indoor pool and go wade through it to get a realistic effect. Another thing is the lights. they sound too simple and overly loud.
too addictive? i skimmed through just so i could look at the rooms and move on instead of wasting time slowly walking through a room that my brain's already taken in visually, especialy when i know nothing is going to happen there's really no point in watching for me
This is the best backrooms video I've seen. The spaces feel so nostalgic and dream-like. I would willingly spend time there just for the serenity of it. Well done on this!
The Poolrooms are by far my top 1 favorite level of the backrooms, and to see it made into a found footage exploration video makes me enjoy it even more! this really shows the amount of potential you have and I'm all for it as I do look forward and really enjoy your backrooms content
Truly, the colored slide room immediately brought old feelings of strange dreams from a long time ago. Dreams of rooms within rooms and dim lights. Not necessarily nightmares, but Void and Sadness are key words that come to mind, even then.
The potential in this series is massive. The rooms are scary but also satisfying to watch being explored. I love it when something, even very slight, happens that's not just the environment. Like that loud banging near the end. I hope these never stop.
The endless hole alone is a terrifying thought Not just for the fact that it's a potentially bottomless hole, but that the sides are rounded down, and made out of those crappy ceramic tiles, which are extremely slippery when wet, and the fact that at all times while on this floor you are bound to be wet whilst encountering the hole I can imagine many people fell down it just tempted to look into it

The point that you fully managed to create such eerie yet nostalgic feelings that backrooms used to give us is just amazing. Please keep up the good work!
Seeing 'poolrooms' like this brings back memories of forgotten dreams I've had growing up, I can recall at least 2 separate dreams where I was in some big hotel that was unconventual in that you could get directly from your floor of the hotel room directly onto the floor below or into the built in waterpark by taking a waterslide from the lobby of your floor at the hotel. It honestly never felt creepy or anything, just like super weird and foreign, but in a pleasing way. This stuff though has an extra layer of creepiness to it, yet I still enjoy it because it makes me recall those old dreams I had and how much I enjoyed them at the time.
I've randomly stumbled across this video and have no knowledge of what it's meant to be. But my first thought was that it reminds me of those dreams that seem completely reasonable at the time, but then you wake up and realise just how surreal it was.
I really think we need to revive a wider appreciation of this kind of horror. Pure isolation and dreaded silence. The crushing, paranoia inducing tension that comes only with silence and the fear that you might not actually be alone. These pool rooms videos encapsulate that particular brand of horror and fear exceptionally well. It's understated, almost. So bravo Sir for capturing a near existential dread!
Not to mention just the sheer *weirdness* of it. Even if you're the type that is comfy with isolation, being in an environment that is just *off* in every way possible would be maddening.
I agree. Stephen King's ideas of horror resonate with this as well. He described the horror of the weird as such: 'Horror is going home to find everything you own has been replaced by an exact copy'. Also, 'Horror is walking down a dark hallway knowing you're going to be grabbed- then turning around to find nobody there.' In an interview, he also said something akin to: 'You know what horror is? What's really scary? There's 3,000 people in the audience. Statistically, about 10% of people forget to lock their cars regularly. That means there are about 300 unlocked cars in the parking lot. See, now you're thinking- wait, did I lock my car? But what you aren't thinking about is how you're going to forget wondering that by the time this interview is over. You also aren't thinking about whether or not, if you did leave your car unlocked, how easy it would be for someone to crawl in the backseat and lie in wait.'
*I feel like I just stumbled into a nightmare of never ending claustrophobia and hopelessness. The room with the clouds was the most depressing because it reminded of the freedom that would never come to be again. The room with the hole in the floor gave off the faintest glimmer of hope that there might be a possibility of an permanent end to this eternal dimension of desolation.This is The Line in Saudi Arabia. They're building it right now!!*
Am I the only one who finds beside the eerieness also something deeply calming and soothing in the backrooms and especially the poolrooms? Actually I watch Poolrooms videos to relax directly before sleeping because of that calming effect they have for me.
For me it’s the warm light, I only associate that with my living room and bedroom and they are very relaxing places, when I see back rooms with cool lights it makes me super anxious.
This really is an audiovisual masterpiece. It’s EXACTLY like being in a dream where everything is always changing and the architecture of the buildings is completely impractical. The fish-eye lens and videotape fuzz really sell the concept and help suspend disbelief. Dreams like this were usually very unnerving to me as I didn’t know what my brain was going to conjure up next, so watching this controlled environment is especially nice because you get to actually look around for a while without being interrupted by someone or something. First-rate.
It's very eerie to me how the part at 4:06 reminds me so much of an indoor hotel pool that I visited as a child. Up until that point, my experience with pools were always outdoors and filled with the voices of happy children underneath a blue, sunny sky. However, this hotel pool was almost exactly like the one depicted in the video; it had an eerie glow from the artificial lights, was deathly quiet, and had the same white tiled floor and walls that reminded me of a doctors office. It even had the same window looking out to a dark, concrete hotel complex with no trees or sunlight in sight.
My ex girlfriend had an apartment building public hottub that was very much like this, only much tinier. Always had the weirdest vibes going in there, only did a couple times. I mean, it was in the basement of a highrise building built sometime in the late 80s. Definitely period correct.
Am I the only one who doesn't find stuff like this unsettling? There's a comforting sense of nostalgia that I honestly find pleasant about these videos.
Man, I cannot describe how well you nailed the atmosphere in this. It's incredible... major liminal space vibes. Hope to see more from you, this was impressive.
It always starts out cool and interesting until that feeling of paranoia setting in and the anxiety building as the player starts to realize he doesn't know how to get out and the back rooms are much larger than first expected and he could be lost here forever. Great video!
This is insane! Hard to believe it's not real! It gave me such a relaxing yet scary feeling that kept getting stronger the more I proceeded into this video! Amazing job really
Dude... HOLY SHIT. THIS VIDEO WAS SO GOOD. I am so freaking impressed with your three poolroom videos, they are definitely my favorite!! Thank you SOOOO much for putting in the work to make this. It is BEAUTIFUL. A work of art. I am so so so eager and excited to see more from you!! I guess I should add some things of note. First of all, the lightning and shading of this was really damn good. Not too grainy or distorted. Perfect. The camera movement was good too, not too crazy like some of the videos I've seen. The sound, really really good. Just enough to make us believe it's us there walking but not too much to make it hard to hear. All in all it was very very creepy, I was on edge the whole time. And holy shit that chair got me good. Thanks again!
These creators are just absolutely amazing at their work. I dreamt of liminal spaces since I was a child and seeing these brought to life in such high quality makes me overwhelmed with joy and that childlike exploration just got revived. You all should make a game id pay for it and even support it.
I worked a lot in converting footage from the 90's or at least on 90's tech to digital. I would like to think myself one of the last "experts" on the tech. You captured this well. You're one of the few who got the aspect ratio correct, as few realize that pre-digital pixels are taller than they are wide. Even if you didn't know that, you sized it correctly. Also, the iconic port side white, magnetic artifact line is an instant classic.
These videos are literally the highest quality Backrooms footage I've yet seen! The fact that you captured everything with such detail and kept the atmosphere true to it's horrendously eeire from is outstanding. I personally think the Poolrooms are much scarier due to the fact of there's water and that adds and extra level of danger.
One of my favorite bits about this (aside from what everyone else has said about staying true to the idea and having the isolation be the real horror without having to have monsters or jumpscares) is the little details that make it feel that much more like an alien, artificial environment. Things like the ladders in the pools having nothing to actually step on. It's like whatever made these pool rooms saw that they all has those little metal bits (stairs, ladders, etc.) but couldn't actually figure out the purpose so they just tacked on something vaguely similar.
your walking speeds and the way you meter the footsteps are what make this feel absolutely convincing. Hell, the sound design as a whole is stellar. The way the florescent bulbs hum at different frequencies... some must be older than others, right? If the lights start singing higher and higher that means I'm getting closer to something... right?
you're definitely one of the best Backrooms creators out there! perfectly capturing the original vibe of being in some ever-winding maze, alone but not and never seeing what makes those noises or moves objects out of sight, if anything at all. absolutely phenomenal work
This reminds me of two movies: The Langoliers (1995) where a group of people find themselves at an airport, where there is no smell, echo and life and Vivarium (2019) where a couple is trapped in an infinite world of same looking empty houses. This footage here shows a well made psycho horror. Especially the deep hole without a barrier was the killer for me. If the room would be flooded by surprise, you would be flushed down there instantly. In this context look up "submechanophobia" on the internet. Great job!
Glad someone else knows about the 1995 Langoliers movie. It was a favorite of mine as a kid because of the creepy vibes in the empty airport world. Hardly anyone I talk to has ever heard of it much less seen it. And yes I think you've nailed the comparison, the atmosphere is very similar to this video
@@sKTkC i think the "Cube" movies have the same type of horror. The difference to this footage is that in "Cube" are links to the "real world" outside: the people find some numbers and discover some kind of system of the "world". But looking at the "trap worlds" in this footage, "Vivarium" and "Langoliers" the worlds are completely "dead" or "artificial" with no connection to the real world. The more the people discover the world ("Langoliers", "Vivarium"), the more they realise that the world is artificial and deathly. I think this realization is what makes these movies so horrifying.
I like how you progressively evoke a sense of utter loneliness on each video to like Okay... there might be something else down here, and back to complete silence again. Keep it up bro.
Most unique Backrooms creator, also notice the KILLER sound design. Everything I love about the exploration aspect of the backrooms instead of the "monster horror" of it is nailed by Matt. Take notes friends, INSANE WORK.
The unnerving change of pitch of the electrical hum might be a stroke of genius here. It gives the whole world an unreal feel to it. In reality it would be very weird to hear that large pitch changes within seconds and meters. It drives home the message that the rooms are not reality, just a mimicry of it. Great job. But, some constructive criticism: I would have added just a hint of disturbance of the water surfaces, even the most undisturbed water in that large quantities will have minute ripples due to air flow, convection, and other environmental factors. It would enhance the eerie feel of the rooms, make them even more believable. You may have had something there, but if so, it got lost in the analogue video processing, be it simulated grading or physical grading through an actual tape deck.
Another excellent Matt Studios video. So often, I wanna FFW through other peoples' Backrooms videos - even sub-1 minute - and often I am right, BUT Matt gets the pacing and the ambience perfect, so I wanna be patient and watch it all the way through.
The rendering feels like a vivid dream type effect almost like we're looking at someone having a vivid dream it's almost believeable that you're in the poolrooms when you're not awesome work with the modeling dude!!!! 👍
The set. It's terrifies me. The thing about this video is that it is *very* well done. When I was first watching the intro, as he was going through the "submerged arches", I legitimately asked myself if the set was real. There's so much detail put into the set and so much care put into the reflections and so much attention to realistic shadows that, to me at least, it will look real enough from a first glance... but then you get to the next shot, where you can clearly see the unrealistic movement of the water. Water doesn't move the way it did in the closed-off hallway. This isn't real; it's very clear it's not... but it's almost there. If not for the water in that hallway, I'd probably think this was a real- albeit undoubtably edited- video of a real location in our world. And worse still, watching through this, as you see less and less water, without the context from before, one could very well assume this is a real place. That, for some reason, is horrifying to me.
Up until about a month ago, I knew nothing about backrooms. For me, your poolroom video was the first ever backroom video I've seen, and it set the bar considerably. When it comes to doing things, you are hands down the finest there is. When you use the camera to focus on tight spaces, I'd like to see more of those places explored. Places where you have to get low to the ground, crawl, or squeeze through. That would be so great. In addition, I appreciate you checking out the comments and reacting to your fanbase. Thank you for everything.
So much atmosphere in both the visuals and audio. I especially love the subtle air currents we hear at 6:06. The variations in color temperature from the different lights is a really nice touch too. I'm so glad I subscribed after the previous one ^^
Man this is literally real looking. And these corridor design and the forever upstair shot. I feel like I was stuck in time in the 80s/90s not playing forward and left alone for eternity.
this series is some of the most well-done horror i’ve ever seen. the atmosphere is oppressively thick and lonely, yet beautiful and imaginative. i’m in awe.
This is like asmr to me. Like, I can feel myself getting sleepy from this. Very calming and peaceful. It reminds me how I would wander around cons late at night to get out my last bit of energy before sleeping. 🥰
As a contractor all I could think about is how much work it would take to actually build something like this..
Yeah how TF would you even bid something like this
It's CGI.
That's a lot of tile work.
@@reenym3577 that's exactly what I was thinking lol
How much work would it actually take? Like how long?
I don't know how I ended up here but I'm impressed at how they've managed to recreate nightmares I don't even remember having.
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹

Troof!!
I'm more concerned that they have recreated a nightmare I do remember having.
Is this a rea set?
What I find most impressive about this video is the subtle camera movements. It really really makes it seem like a real life recording of someone holding an old vcr camera.
This is kind of creepy and scared to me at the same time I don't know if I have a mix of feelings or emotions but I feel like it's abandoned at this point
Creepy AF! Fills me with anxiety for some reason. And I thought it WAS real!
@@TangoCharlieAlpha I did too! Super creepy!!! I was googling where this building was 😅 fell down a whole back rooms rabbit hole…
WOAH.
@@KateLeighann Same here…had to look to see what it was, in actuality lol. Maybe I’m naive on these things.
@@brightmacsworld8353 it's either Kim ks kids pool under the house or the inside of Kim ks sole, in her pleather one piece outfits w shoes attached like that red body suit w shoes built in
The best part for me is the constant gratification of that “what is this place” moment, and unlike normal buildings the next turn always unfolds into something even more uncanny and curious. Familiar textures with nonsensical structures is perfect, just like a dream
This actually captures what originally made the backrooms so unsettling to me. Not the nearly immediate threat of some monster, but rather the isolation and the otherworldly interior design that just feels so empty
Could you explain to me what this is, please?
@@Gameboy-Unboxings the back rooms It's basically the same concept as this except it's like an office building. Look it up there's tons of videos on UA-cam
I find it a little bit relaxing and quite satisfies my curiosity. Though the threat of starvation is there if the explorer never finds a pantry.
You are not the master of this domain, which is seemingly endless and unimpeded. Inescapable. Like a dream you can't wake up from. The kind of dream when you try to speak but your voice never comes out. A standing presence that you sense but can never witness. A non euclidean realm where the points are made up and the rules don't matter, WELCOME TO WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY
😂😂
I'm not even joking, I sometimes have dreams about an environment like this and it's wild to see how similar it really is. Kinda eerie.
Same here. I sometimes have dreams where I'm in this place that's like an amusement park, or at least one of its rides. There are slightly dark rooms that are connected with different colored slides. The floor is this black carpet with colorful shapes, 90s style. Echoes from memories past.
I get dreams like that too! Usually like arcades or water parks
Me too!
Probably because you’ve been there before but in another dimension 👍
My friend Dee has dreams like that
So far my favorite take on the backrooms
As the horror isn't a big video game scenario with a monster chasing you; but rather a slow desert-esque "you are kinda already dead, explore and get as far as you can" sort of deal, with a silent creep that follows silently and carefully instead as the monster
The monsters in other iterations on the backrooms are interesting as well, but at the end of the day, I agree. They aren't truly the focus of the backrooms, the environment is. Otherwise it might as well just be SCP - Pocket Dimension Version.
The dread of exploring something that seems so similar to things created by humans, but so very impossible and completely deserted, like waking up and finding everyone else on the planet had disappeared and all of creation had been warped. Like a lucid dream you'll never wake from.. that's what I find interesting about the backrooms.
@@Femroe It's easy to instill fear with monsters and jump scares and the like but to instill fear through architecture and enviroments I think is really impressive.
Legitimately I became disinterested in the backrooms stuff because of videos with monsters and jump scares. I saw a vid of someone explain backrooms and love SCP stuff so checked it out. This is actually good tho it's a shame UA-cam is flooded with goofy ones with jump scares and monsters.
yes i think if you want to expand on the backrooms it is more about creating an infinite maze of new but equally empty liminal spaces. adding entities and people kinda ruins it, at most it would be better to only see traces of what might be.
-Hearing disembodied and muffled chatter, but unable to find the source as if it is leaking in from the real world, maybe even a glimpse through a peephole/keyhole into a bustling food court but unable to be seen or heard or escape.
-just enough soggy carpet water and half eaten granola bars in drawers and trashcans to keep yourself going as long as you keep moving (and you will to live can hold out), no matter how futile it probably all is.
-just enough un-explained noises to keep you from escaping to restful sleep.
Yes, i love it to
When I was a little kid I had a dream about finding a doorway in my closet that led to an alternate version of my room, where things were almost the same but not quite. Following yet another doorway led me to an even stranger version of my room. I kept following doorways, finding increasingly strange and warped spaces until it didn't resemble my house at all. All the while the sound of pulsing machinery could be heard softly in the background, but it would get louder and louder each time I would go "deeper" in. The final few rooms looked very similar to what you have created here. Pretty eerie.
I'm pretty sure whoever's room was on the other side was the one dreaming. Sorry to break it to you, but you're the dream.
That’s a good story idea
You ever watched the movie ‘Insidious’? Kinda sounds like you are also able to travel to other worlds in your dreams, so am I!
@@Sycon-X No, you do not "travel to other worlds in your dreams" buddy, it's just an unfamiliar landscape that your brain doesn't recognize so you perceive it as "another world"
@@gonzoradio1007 yes that’s what I ment with other worlds…
Meaning to be able to Astral Project, couldn’t remember Astral Projection when I was writing my comment. But I’m sure able to, I recon you as well?
This is what I want from the backrooms/poolrooms: no running, no screaming, no jumpscares, no unnecessary generic monsters. Just a generally nostalgic-yet-otherworldly and slightly creepy vibe of the backrooms. And you get this vibe. Great video. Thank you!
The threat of the poolrooms is less imminent but not less real. Will you die from starvation?. Thirst? An infection or contaminated water. Or will you slip and fall? Will you find a place to sleep? Will you get stuck in a place where the water rises to the ceiling. Will you ever get out? If you dont lose your sanity first.
No less nervewrecking then a monster waiting around the next corner to smash you.
@@thijsjong: Yep, I think there's enough fears without adding some generic monster into the mix.
I agree. I liked the concept of the backrooms, but when I actually read/watched about the full lore it just felt like an amateur video game and just lost me.
So nothing like what Kane Pixels did to Backrooms?
@@Foxfire_forty-nine i mean I love his work, but he's just working within the established mythos. With the factions of people and almond milk and all that. I just enjoy the simplicity of empty, endless liminal spaces. The feeling of isolation and emptiness is the whole point which is supremely undercut by the presence of legions of human inhabitants and rpg-style monsters.
the chair falling over at the end with no explanation is 100x scarier than any monster ppl have tried to cram in these spaces. chills down my spine
I much prefer subtleties like that than some monster, although I do understand the feeling of being chased gets your blood flowing. Still, I like these videos and the games that rely more on the atmosphere and small events that can happen like the chair or some strange distant noises.. the mystery lets your mind make up what it could be, like reading a book.
Yep. You're not alone in there. Something is waching & following you... and you don't know if it's evil or not.
I think I now get why we all collectively have this creepy nostalgic memory. It’s the vibe of being at a hotel, walking through the long hallways at night which are always oddly quite and empty. And swimming at hotel pools has an off vibe as well.
This reminds me of locker rooms hella creepy
Totally agree! They're almost sinister. Lol
I’m expecting to see the twins from The Shining at ever corner! Creepy AF!!
Ive never done that in my entire life but, I got your point and that is really interesting.
Look up the Vanderbilt indoor pool at the estate in Asheville NC. Super real life creepy
Am I the only one who finds this strangely calming?
It Is Calming Listening To The Background Noise And Seeing This Lad Walking About…
Bro if you find that calming you have a problem ☠️
My thoughts exactly. I want to teleport to this place
Yes, thought the same. I felt calm watching this, even if it is a little eerie. The buzz of the fluorescent lights, footsteps, the patterns of the tiles, walls, etc.
@@CkcRyshis67 one can find it calming to explore such places virtually or vicariously through the eyes of the cameraman. The only reason being that unlike someone who is trapped and doomed for eternity in there we have the freedom of having both worlds.
People seem to be evenly split on the "monsters/no monsters" thing. I think that the backrooms/poolrooms can be done well with them or without them. I think that any kind of entity encounter in the backrooms should more play on the psychological experience of wandering a place like that. Like, imagine wandering for hours through a place like that and *then* you slowly start to hear things. I love this genre of videos.
It would eventually happen
The originals from 4chan had no monsters, that was added due to reddit.
Uh Hello
There are supposed to be places with no entities. That way when you do hear, see, smell, taste, and feel things that you think are a monster hut aren’t you’re psyching yourself out i. A place that is completely safe, meanwhile there are locations where monsters are and you have to think, even if it is ever so slightly even if it’s against your natural inclinations, “is dying to this monster better than being lost in these rooms, wandering alone?”
The monsters accent the mental problems rather than being the sole cause of them (for the most part) that is how I would do the backrooms.
You wouldn't know if it was a hallucination from being alone so long. Fun!

The monsters ruin everything. It just ends up with having to show more and more and everytime you do you end up making it less mysterious.
Kind of like how Cloverfield never really showed the monsters
@@luman1109 True, nice to see others that agree with this statement, more backrooms videos would be just better with less monsters or at the very least them not actively hunting the camera guy
@@luman1109 I feel like people are turning the backrooms into some bootleg SCP thing with all these random entities and floors lmao
The concept of the backrooms in the very beginning, even before the popular video series, was always about applying the uncanny valley theory to spaces. Familiar yet off, not posing any real threat but still giving fear. Sure lots of people took this uncanniness and fear and ran with it but the core idea has always been about the space itself.
I think this is my favorite Poolrooms video so far, if only for the fact that there are faint promises of freedom scattered all over it that never come to fruition. You keep seeing what looks like sunlight just around a corner, only to find when you get there that it's just a slightly different shade of fluorescent light, or the reflection off a differently-colored tile. Those weird little "windows" are everywhere, suggesting the existence of an outside world, but the blackout curtains keep you from seeing what's on the other side and their locations don't seem to make sense with the building's geometry. You find a bigger window that seems to offer some view out of the facility, but all you see is a closed space surrounded by all the poolrooms you've just waded through, and it's hard to tell if the light above is the sky or just more artificial lighting. Then, as if to mock you, you stumble into a room decorated with a semblance of a blue summer sky, containing three brightly-colored slides that descend from... nowhere, apparently. There's a frustrating sense that you're constantly just on the verge of escape, but your hopes are dashed at every turn when nothing is as it appeared from a distance. The overturned chair at the end is the final unsettling touch, as you start to realize that not only is there no way out, something else might be in there with you. Excellent work man, hats off to you!
Oh you're so right. Also like the stairs going up. It feels like you finally found the escape from the pool rooms only to end up in liminal hotel space. And it wouldn't be the same feeling if the stairs led down.
it feels like everything is trying to make you think other things the opposite of what's there, on purpose, as to throw you off when the real thing comes
That's the best observation I've come upon......in some time.
YEAH YEAH ! my favorite shot is at 4:30, because up until that point we've seen multiple hotel room looking windows blacked out with curtains, suggesting that even if there's no outside world behind them to escape to, maybe there's some sort of room w/ amenities to rest in, with a bed and a minifridge and a bathroom. but then we end up on the other side of one of those windows, and there's nothing there. no room. just more pool. and while we're processing the lack of anything, we get to stare out the window at even more windows, knowing that there's nothing behind any of them but more infinite pool. it rips away even the sense of hope for rest if not escape
@@jerryvermillion933 no what babe
of all the backroom content i've consumed this series is definitely my favorite. the repositioned wall or that tiny knocked over chair at the end is the perfect amount of scare. no monsters, just eerie, lonely, exploration with the occasional wtf moment is all i want haha.

I'm now realizing this is a common sentiment but this legit feels like you've filmed a dream- it's an incredibly odd and unnerving feeling that I applaud you for
I mean seriously, I was wishing that someone would invent a dream recorder but who needs that when we have these backrooms footages?
literally yes.. down to the weird “hey why is that there?” detail of the bottomless hole thatd leave you feeling so weirded out
The nostalgia hits me hard in this one. Reminds me of being a small toddler and being taken to the indoor pool. Both comforting and unsettling. The smooth tiles, the calm warm water, the fear of being sucked into pool filters or sinking to the bottom of the water and being unable to surface. Also the lack of windows.
@@andrewbetances1203 How is what done?
@@andrewbetances1203 Why would you think that?
Those pool filters are no joke, btw. I can think of at least a few accidents in pools and fountains that killed someone in a very horrible way. They get too powerful or whatever. And they'll grab and hold anything they get. Drowning is the least of your issues. Actually.
One fountain killed several people trying to help
Indoor pools kind of give me the willies to be honest.
This is what it feels like when I'm walking into the Land of the Dead it feels abandoned
I've got to say, and I'm amazed there aren't more people in the comments saying this, the animation quality here is absolutely incredible. I know it's working with a limited palette, but the final effect is so convincing, it's genuinely amazing. If this is the work of one person alone I'm absolutely stunned.
Wait !!! So this is not a REAL ACTUAL LOCATION??

Thank you!! I was so confused of why this even existed!!
@@robinhood2550 same!! I was like so do people go here !? Is this a functional thing to do .. even though it looks deliciously terrifying 😆🥴😏😬
I legit thought this was real and was wondering if it was a flooded abandoned school at first lol then I saw the actual pool ladders and then thought “why did someone build this?”
Then I saw ur comment and realized it’s not real lol omg
Dude…so triggering, literally the most uncomfortable thing I’ve seen in a long time! The atmosphere, claustrophobia, emptiness, murky water and weird geometry combined make this extremely unsettling. Well done!
Smellers, you said exactly my thoughts exactly; I couldn't put them into words.
Even the silence is uncomfortable
The worst thing is the feeling of being stared at and vulnerable no matter where you are you can't escape just walk and prey for your life
and even the humming from the lights. each new section brings in a new dissonant, uncomfortable pitch
For me it's the opposite. I find it super relaxing, almost therapeutic.
You've single handedly made me download blender and start trying to learn how to use it. Once you start learning you appreciate how high quality this is even more. I hope it inspires more people to create similar backrooms videos like this. I don't really care for the entities. They feel more like a cheap jumpscare. These allow for much more imagination and existential dread and are just way more fun to watch.
I agree. The whole "hole to nowhere " terrified me
you getting anywhere with Blender?
@@FrequencyFilthyhow was blender?
@@berryseinfeld6772 I gave up almost immediately 😭 I just don’t have enough brain power.
I dunno what's wrong with me, but if I somehow entered the poolrooms, I'd want to jump down that well or something at 6:10. Since I would know that I am doomed, I would think that it doesn't matter whether I die or not doing so, but jumping from heights is so fun
The previous "level" of the pools in your last video I found to be quite quaint, and it kinda made me want to go venture into the backrooms myself. But this one, even though it still has the same pool theme, feels much more scarier and eerie. The atmosphere is so repulsing, yet warm, I can't believe how you managed to pull this off! Keep making these great videos!
The first half of the video gives me those hotel pool vibes, and the children's pool room is downright nostalgic horror! I want to see what wierd architecture this explorer stumbles upon next. Your work is phenomenal!
You know it's not real right?
@@zuzuzaza98 why would I think it's real?
This was such a great video. This whole video manage to capture the feeling of loneliness, isolation and also gives the feeling of hopelessnes. No matter how long he walks, he will never be able to find the exit. Watching this gives the feeling that the backroom itself is alive
They don't exist. And once you enter, neither will you.
バックルームって、最近はエンティティがメインで本来のリミナルスペースの雰囲気が損なわれつつあるから、こういう映像を見つけられて嬉しく思います。

I love when there are no monsters seen. It’s that foreboding, quiet horror you sometimes have in your dreams about places like this.
There’s something so beautiful about those dreams too. Beautiful and devastating.
I like both, I like the ones with long build up and then the monster comes. You know its there, but the build up was making it more terrifying.
Gaé
That’s what made Michael
Myers scary in Halloween is that he would stalk you and you could not really she him that well all the time the back rooms would be a serial killers playground for hunting and stalking there game 🩸🔪🎃
No monsters seen, but the infrequent gurgles of water suggests that there is something else in the water that is moving.
This is exactly what it gave me. A silent tone from some of my worst dreams. Like someone is watching me. Just being enclosed.
everything is perfect in this video
animation, realism, atmosphere, audio
impressive i love it!
Ditto this is literally Matt's most perfect video to date, I wouldn't change a thing. It's pure artistry.
Honestly, I love the poolrooms/backrooms concept. For whatever reason it's super comforting to me and brings a sense of longing and nostalgia. Like wandering empty hallways in a hotel, a school or office after hours, a store just before it closes, etc. Just love the vibe. 👍
If this conjures nostalgia then you had a strange childhood. 🤨
One time, I was in Tokyo just after a typhoon passed through. The streets were empty, the stores were all closed but the mall was open to entry. It felt so surreal yet comforting.
I totally feel you. It’s like walking through an abandoned amusement park, mall, or huge house.
Am I glad that I'm not the only freak 😂 so many things that are considered Horror look like my grandpa's abandoned poultry farm and his mansion. I feel nostalgia instead of horror.
I used to work at a grocery store that was open for 24 hours. During the day it was packed and hectic, and at 12am it was almost completely empty.
Ah, another from Matt Studios. Truly artful. The feelings that are created while watching this video… I absolutely love it. Please make more of these, they make my day
This is so phenomenal. It’s how some of the most intense dreams look and you’ve managed to capture this unsettling feeling of a distorted reality. I especially enjoy the odd placement of architecture and the random chairs, making the viewer feels the unease of questioning if this place was really meant for this many people or created for making just one person go insane. That “no!” in the beginning actually put me on edge and set the tone for the rest of the video too
He makes each room so unique, as if it truly is generated by some artificial intelligence or alternate reality that's trying to appear human and create human spaces but is just off and uncanny. So insanely eerie.
This was a random YT recommendation and it took me a minute to figure out is this was real footage or not. The modeled spaces are so good, especially after getting the "old VHS tape" treatment. The modeling looks like it took a long time, but even more the sound design is great too. They fit perfectly together. A very somber exploration video.
same for me, jesus this video is creepy, they nailed that 80s vibe and sound
Me too!! Swear he'd turn a corner and see the Shining twins!!
Same here, this was definitely interesting
i was wondering if it was real or not 😭
Clearly this is apart of the elite underground bunker. Probably their water park/homes
Ran into this without any prior knowledge of this concept. The cleanliness of all the nice tile is honestly a large reason I can't stop watching.
Right! I was like if I could get my kitchen floors like that, I'd be the talk of the town. Lol
It's just kind of creepy and scary to me I like it
@@brightmacsworld8353 It's really unnerving.
This is exactly like the dreams I used to have as a child.
Something about the unusual architecture and indoor pools with strange shapes...
What I admire the most is that you don't dumb-it-down for the masses with monsters, screams, or other low-brow crap.
We're just allowed to take in the strangely familiar scenery which is enough to trigger uneasy quesions... Why is that massive hole there without any safety barrier? What's behind that dark corner? Why are those chairs placed there... Who would be sitting there? Was this place ever busy, bustling with laughing children?
Not to mention all the windows facing the pool
I'm usually not a big fan of all the different "levels" in the backrooms, but theses poolrooms are really well made. Awesome video !
The OG level, maintenance corridor level, and the poolrooms are I think that ‘real backrooms’ feel.
Original backroom was supposed to be trapped in yellow office rooms. Backroom "levels" was a fan version from original backroom. But, i love the fan version concept. It makes me want to explore the secret of backroom
@@rexdev4489 Both of them kinda work in horror in their own way.
The classic one works on the fear of the unknown, while the fanmade one works like that too, it's just that there's more places to go.
The thing that people kinda hate the level stuff it's because it's all classified and archived, like an actual SCP.
@@rexdev4489 The Poolrooms actually started as a seperate thing from the Backrooms, a series of pictures called Dreaming Pools.
I reckon the scariest thing about the poolrooms is that the water never goes stagnant, because there's absolutely no other life there. Never mind monsters, there's not even bacteria. Anybody who gets lost there is truly alone.
@@lentlemenproductions770 I like the "parkrooms" too. An unending and nonsensical indoor car park, I go there sometimes in my dreams.
Finally, a video about EXPLORING the Backrooms. Not fleeing from entities, or sudden noises, or jumpscares. Just pure exploration! I love it!
Sudden noise 8:11

@@Putrefrye I think it’s ok to have a few of them scattered far around the backrooms, like the library creature that thing terrifies me.
I really enjoy how you've commingled different levels together in this one. I think it actually enhances the spookiness significantly by decreasing the predictability.
There's a popular theory that the Backrooms are generated by some alien super-advanced AI system that uses our world as a template, but has no practical understanding of it. The result is this weird mess of rooms that from our perspective make zero sense. Entities encountered in the Backrooms could as well be AI attempting to recreate animals and humans, but failing catastrophically resulting in these abominations.
That actually looks really wrong with having what are essentially office spaces invaded by swimming pools. When it was just essentially big infinite swimming pools it honestly looks like a pretty fun place to hang out.
@@Mortablunt The end especially, just a tiny pool in one corner of a big carpeted room. It looks like things from real life, but they don't go together like that!
This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20.
Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God.
Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!
The backrooms is not always about the entity’s, it’s the idea of being lost, alone, and no way out. Good job on the footage. 👍
For something computer generated this is absolute exquisite work. The movements are so like life, lighting, texture, water even.
These are ripped straight from my nightmares XD I’m not even scared of pools but in dreams they’re the most unsettling and scary thing I come across and they look a lot like this
I had SO many dreams about pools as a kid this takes me back. It would lie right inbetween a dream and a nightmare. Thanks for making this, the backrooms concept is way cooler when not oversensationalized.
I still have dreams about pools all of the time. So this is... interesting.
I have weird dreams not only of exploring houses with tons of new rooms, always finding new ones but never the way out, but also dreams where I’m swimming and having to hold my breath and freaking out thinking going to run out of air RIGHT before I reach the surface which just so happens to always be out of my reach. Every time I try to get to the surface and can’t make it, I think I’m going to drown and have it be the end of me, I give up and just inhale the water only to discover that I can breathe under water and had nothing to worry about the whole time.
This here reminds me of both those types of dreams blended together.
Returning to this video once again and all i can say is that this is a piece of art. There is no other video I have encountered that really captures the essence of the backrooms as well as this one. It invokes a feeling of mystery and fascination of the world which we just lose when we grow up and our view of the once magical world tranforms into something stale trough years of academia. It invokes the feeling of nostalgia like youre glimpsing into the world with a childs imaginative eyes but you know that, that simple and pure curiosness and raw wonder isnt there anymore and it leaves you with a empty and slightly sad feeling.
Its like exploring a long forgetten dream, lost in the endless void of other forgotten dreams for a moment it has been ressurected from its never ending lonliness and now you can once again explore its endless surreal hallways winding in all direction and you, just like in a dream, is its only visitor and when you leave, the endless halls of dimmed rooms and the monotous sound of dripping water and lamps buzzing will also cease to exist, once again leaving the waken world and return to an endless slumber.
amazing work as always👍
first
This channel is the closest I have seen anyone come to matching the eerieness of Kane's environments. Extremely atmospheric and creatively done. The concept of the backrooms changing and shifting in your canon is also quite interesting
ASync is also another great channel
Entities and lore are cool and all, but can we appreciate the mood that absolute loneliness creates? It’s such a strong feeling that is too addictive to stop watching.
not knowing is the appeal
Sound design really needs some work. Matt, If you read this consider walking through a real place and recording your walking noises
Also find an indoor pool and go wade through it to get a realistic effect. Another thing is the lights. they sound too simple and overly loud.
entities are so dumb they don't need to be added
Liminal space.
too addictive? i skimmed through just so i could look at the rooms and move on instead of wasting time slowly walking through a room that my brain's already taken in visually, especialy when i know nothing is going to happen there's really no point in watching for me
This is the best backrooms video I've seen. The spaces feel so nostalgic and dream-like. I would willingly spend time there just for the serenity of it. Well done on this!
There is nothing more eerie than a dark pool of water
The Poolrooms are by far my top 1 favorite level of the backrooms, and to see it made into a found footage exploration video makes me enjoy it even more! this really shows the amount of potential you have and I'm all for it as I do look forward and really enjoy your backrooms content
Truly, the colored slide room immediately brought old feelings of strange dreams from a long time ago. Dreams of rooms within rooms and dim lights. Not necessarily nightmares, but Void and Sadness are key words that come to mind, even then.
I agree with you same to me.
The potential in this series is massive. The rooms are scary but also satisfying to watch being explored. I love it when something, even very slight, happens that's not just the environment. Like that loud banging near the end.
I hope these never stop.
This looks like real footage, absolutely amazing! It's even a nuance realer than the last one
Its not real its fake
@@sonyabladesbooty3890 I know it's fake dude It just looks great

Thats not real? Seriouy?
@@sonyabladesbooty3890 I think we all knew that buddy.
1:22 - 4:20 - 7:13
I like the idea that the backrooms are connected to each other, instead of being separated by "levels".
Thats why I love Kane Pixels version as well
Levels don't separate the backrooms. They just define them.
totally!!
Yes! I agree
What random guy said
The endless hole alone is a terrifying thought
Not just for the fact that it's a potentially bottomless hole, but that the sides are rounded down, and made out of those crappy ceramic tiles, which are extremely slippery when wet, and the fact that at all times while on this floor you are bound to be wet whilst encountering the hole
I can imagine many people fell down it just tempted to look into it
And the chairs there when there are practically no chairs anywhere else

It probably has water at the bottom tho. Or a slide :D
The point that you fully managed to create such eerie yet nostalgic feelings that backrooms used to give us is just amazing. Please keep up the good work!
Seeing 'poolrooms' like this brings back memories of forgotten dreams I've had growing up, I can recall at least 2 separate dreams where I was in some big hotel that was unconventual in that you could get directly from your floor of the hotel room directly onto the floor below or into the built in waterpark by taking a waterslide from the lobby of your floor at the hotel. It honestly never felt creepy or anything, just like super weird and foreign, but in a pleasing way. This stuff though has an extra layer of creepiness to it, yet I still enjoy it because it makes me recall those old dreams I had and how much I enjoyed them at the time.
I’ve had near identical dreams.
had something similar, where a public bathroom in a hotel or restaurant was like needlessly HUGE and had things like this in it
it freaks me out on a level I can't express to read someone else write out my exact dream...
same here! ive all so had the stuck in a airvent or elevator struggling to move and breath
I've randomly stumbled across this video and have no knowledge of what it's meant to be. But my first thought was that it reminds me of those dreams that seem completely reasonable at the time, but then you wake up and realise just how surreal it was.
I really think we need to revive a wider appreciation of this kind of horror. Pure isolation and dreaded silence. The crushing, paranoia inducing tension that comes only with silence and the fear that you might not actually be alone.
These pool rooms videos encapsulate that particular brand of horror and fear exceptionally well. It's understated, almost. So bravo Sir for capturing a near existential dread!
Not to mention just the sheer *weirdness* of it. Even if you're the type that is comfy with isolation, being in an environment that is just *off* in every way possible would be maddening.
I actually don't mind being alone, I find these places really comforting
I agree. Stephen King's ideas of horror resonate with this as well. He described the horror of the weird as such: 'Horror is going home to find everything you own has been replaced by an exact copy'. Also, 'Horror is walking down a dark hallway knowing you're going to be grabbed- then turning around to find nobody there.'
In an interview, he also said something akin to: 'You know what horror is? What's really scary? There's 3,000 people in the audience. Statistically, about 10% of people forget to lock their cars regularly. That means there are about 300 unlocked cars in the parking lot. See, now you're thinking- wait, did I lock my car? But what you aren't thinking about is how you're going to forget wondering that by the time this interview is over. You also aren't thinking about whether or not, if you did leave your car unlocked, how easy it would be for someone to crawl in the backseat and lie in wait.'
I would love a videogame like this, where it's just pure atmosphere and not cheap jump scares
*I feel like I just stumbled into a nightmare of never ending claustrophobia and hopelessness. The room with the clouds was the most depressing because it reminded of the freedom that would never come to be again. The room with the hole in the floor gave off the faintest glimmer of hope that there might be a possibility of an permanent end to this eternal dimension of desolation.This is The Line in Saudi Arabia. They're building it right now!!*
Or maybe just an eternal fall it's wating on that hole
*Why is your comment bolded*
@@FrequencyFilthy *bold words must be bolded*
Am I the only one who finds beside the eerieness also something deeply calming and soothing in the backrooms and especially the poolrooms?
Actually I watch Poolrooms videos to relax directly before sleeping because of that calming effect they have for me.
For me it’s the warm light, I only associate that with my living room and bedroom and they are very relaxing places, when I see back rooms with cool lights it makes me super anxious.
Agree, it's soothing and so, so...numbing, but in a pleasant way?
Idk why there are so many comments saying how relaxing/comforting or nostalgic this is like wtf is wrong with people?????
Also is this animated or a real place??
@@Zenthedolphin it’s a hellish dimension people see in dreams and afterlife
how do you not find the sounds relaxing bruh
@@TommyThaGreat idk why but that explains the video for me
@@StuckInSyrup which sounds?
This really is an audiovisual masterpiece. It’s EXACTLY like being in a dream where everything is always changing and the architecture of the buildings is completely impractical. The fish-eye lens and videotape fuzz really sell the concept and help suspend disbelief.
Dreams like this were usually very unnerving to me as I didn’t know what my brain was going to conjure up next, so watching this controlled environment is especially nice because you get to actually look around for a while without being interrupted by someone or something. First-rate.
Can you tell me what this is?
@@dodge33445 This is a computer-generated 3D render of a building with sound and visual effects added to give the illusion that it’s a real videotape.
@@bcj842 Thank you
It's very eerie to me how the part at 4:06 reminds me so much of an indoor hotel pool that I visited as a child. Up until that point, my experience with pools were always outdoors and filled with the voices of happy children underneath a blue, sunny sky. However, this hotel pool was almost exactly like the one depicted in the video; it had an eerie glow from the artificial lights, was deathly quiet, and had the same white tiled floor and walls that reminded me of a doctors office. It even had the same window looking out to a dark, concrete hotel complex with no trees or sunlight in sight.
My ex girlfriend had an apartment building public hottub that was very much like this, only much tinier. Always had the weirdest vibes going in there, only did a couple times. I mean, it was in the basement of a highrise building built sometime in the late 80s. Definitely period correct.
Am I the only one who doesn't find stuff like this unsettling? There's a comforting sense of nostalgia that I honestly find pleasant about these videos.
凄く 分かります. このビデオは私達を懐かしくさせます
Man, I cannot describe how well you nailed the atmosphere in this. It's incredible... major liminal space vibes. Hope to see more from you, this was impressive.
It always starts out cool and interesting until that feeling of paranoia setting in and the anxiety building as the player starts to realize he doesn't know how to get out and the back rooms are much larger than first expected and he could be lost here forever. Great video!
Kane Pixels nailed the Backrooms, you've nailed the Poolrooms!
Very inspiring work. Super clean execution as always. Captured the liminal feel perfectly.
Thanks, I’m a big fan of your work so that means a lot!
This is insane! Hard to believe it's not real! It gave me such a relaxing yet scary feeling that kept getting stronger the more I proceeded into this video! Amazing job really
Dude... HOLY SHIT. THIS VIDEO WAS SO GOOD. I am so freaking impressed with your three poolroom videos, they are definitely my favorite!! Thank you SOOOO much for putting in the work to make this. It is BEAUTIFUL. A work of art. I am so so so eager and excited to see more from you!!
I guess I should add some things of note. First of all, the lightning and shading of this was really damn good. Not too grainy or distorted. Perfect. The camera movement was good too, not too crazy like some of the videos I've seen. The sound, really really good. Just enough to make us believe it's us there walking but not too much to make it hard to hear.
All in all it was very very creepy, I was on edge the whole time. And holy shit that chair got me good. Thanks again!
These creators are just absolutely amazing at their work. I dreamt of liminal spaces since I was a child and seeing these brought to life in such high quality makes me overwhelmed with joy and that childlike exploration just got revived. You all should make a game id pay for it and even support it.
Your videos are top notch dude! Props to you for relying on liminal horror rather than the cheesy scp tripe people put in the wiki
I worked a lot in converting footage from the 90's or at least on 90's tech to digital. I would like to think myself one of the last "experts" on the tech.
You captured this well.
You're one of the few who got the aspect ratio correct, as few realize that pre-digital pixels are taller than they are wide. Even if you didn't know that, you sized it correctly.
Also, the iconic port side white, magnetic artifact line is an instant classic.
Edit: I mean this is _real found footage_ of course it's perfect. ;)
The white is what had me questioning the legitimacy of this
These videos are literally the highest quality Backrooms footage I've yet seen! The fact that you captured everything with such detail and kept the atmosphere true to it's horrendously eeire from is outstanding. I personally think the Poolrooms are much scarier due to the fact of there's water and that adds and extra level of danger.
One of my favorite bits about this (aside from what everyone else has said about staying true to the idea and having the isolation be the real horror without having to have monsters or jumpscares) is the little details that make it feel that much more like an alien, artificial environment. Things like the ladders in the pools having nothing to actually step on. It's like whatever made these pool rooms saw that they all has those little metal bits (stairs, ladders, etc.) but couldn't actually figure out the purpose so they just tacked on something vaguely similar.
Cus AI made the rooms
Not sure a lack of attention to detail is praiseworthy.
The aliens could've at least added pool lights
sometimes the steps for pool ladders like that are rectangular cavities cut into the wall below the grab bars
@@TheJunky228 Huh, didn't actually know that.
It has to be the cleanest take on backrooms I've seen so far. Pretty amazing.
your walking speeds and the way you meter the footsteps are what make this feel absolutely convincing. Hell, the sound design as a whole is stellar. The way the florescent bulbs hum at different frequencies... some must be older than others, right? If the lights start singing higher and higher that means I'm getting closer to something... right?
you're definitely one of the best Backrooms creators out there! perfectly capturing the original vibe of being in some ever-winding maze, alone but not and never seeing what makes those noises or moves objects out of sight, if anything at all. absolutely phenomenal work
Idk if its just me but this seems really calming in a way
"really calming" until you start to search an "Exit" door. 👀
@@j_ignacio_vnv and find it
You GET it more than anyone else I've seen make this kind of content. Bless your beautiful brain and skilled hands
i absolutely love the level of commitment you put into these videos
This reminds me of two movies:
The Langoliers (1995) where a group of people find themselves at an airport, where there is no smell, echo and life
and Vivarium (2019)
where a couple is trapped in an infinite world of same looking empty houses.
This footage here shows a well made psycho horror. Especially the deep hole without a barrier was the killer for me. If the room would be flooded by surprise, you would be flushed down there instantly.
In this context look up "submechanophobia" on the internet. Great job!
I know imagine throwing a rock down there it would probably never end
Vivarium very underrated movie.
Wondering what you think of the „cube“ movies. They also got a bit of that vibe imo
Glad someone else knows about the 1995 Langoliers movie. It was a favorite of mine as a kid because of the creepy vibes in the empty airport world. Hardly anyone I talk to has ever heard of it much less seen it. And yes I think you've nailed the comparison, the atmosphere is very similar to this video
@@sKTkC i think the "Cube" movies have the same type of horror. The difference to this footage is that in "Cube" are links to the "real world" outside: the people find some numbers and discover some kind of system of the "world". But looking at the "trap worlds" in this footage, "Vivarium" and "Langoliers" the worlds are completely "dead" or "artificial" with no connection to the real world. The more the people discover the world ("Langoliers", "Vivarium"), the more they realise that the world is artificial and deathly. I think this realization is what makes these movies so horrifying.
Your work belongs on exhibit in an art museum. Just so cool
I like how you progressively evoke a sense of utter loneliness on each video to like Okay... there might be something else down here, and back to complete silence again.
Keep it up bro.
This is quite uneasy to watch but it would be terrifying in VR. Great job.
Love your style to poolrooms!
It's almost like other parts of the backroom are invading the poolrooms!
Inspiring stuff, dude.
good to see the holiday inn at heathrow is making such an appearance everywhere.
Most unique Backrooms creator, also notice the KILLER sound design. Everything I love about the exploration aspect of the backrooms instead of the "monster horror" of it is nailed by Matt. Take notes friends, INSANE WORK.
The unnerving change of pitch of the electrical hum might be a stroke of genius here. It gives the whole world an unreal feel to it. In reality it would be very weird to hear that large pitch changes within seconds and meters. It drives home the message that the rooms are not reality, just a mimicry of it.
Great job.
But, some constructive criticism: I would have added just a hint of disturbance of the water surfaces, even the most undisturbed water in that large quantities will have minute ripples due to air flow, convection, and other environmental factors. It would enhance the eerie feel of the rooms, make them even more believable. You may have had something there, but if so, it got lost in the analogue video processing, be it simulated grading or physical grading through an actual tape deck.
Another excellent Matt Studios video. So often, I wanna FFW through other peoples' Backrooms videos - even sub-1 minute - and often I am right, BUT Matt gets the pacing and the ambience perfect, so I wanna be patient and watch it all the way through.
The rendering feels like a vivid dream type effect almost like we're looking at someone having a vivid dream it's almost believeable that you're in the poolrooms when you're not awesome work with the modeling dude!!!! 👍
Love the art, the hindrance itself of what may be in the next room gives good nostalgic vibes, keep up the great work!
The set. It's terrifies me.
The thing about this video is that it is *very* well done. When I was first watching the intro, as he was going through the "submerged arches", I legitimately asked myself if the set was real. There's so much detail put into the set and so much care put into the reflections and so much attention to realistic shadows that, to me at least, it will look real enough from a first glance... but then you get to the next shot, where you can clearly see the unrealistic movement of the water. Water doesn't move the way it did in the closed-off hallway. This isn't real; it's very clear it's not... but it's almost there. If not for the water in that hallway, I'd probably think this was a real- albeit undoubtably edited- video of a real location in our world. And worse still, watching through this, as you see less and less water, without the context from before, one could very well assume this is a real place.
That, for some reason, is horrifying to me.
Up until about a month ago, I knew nothing about backrooms. For me, your poolroom video was the first ever backroom video I've seen, and it set the bar considerably. When it comes to doing things, you are hands down the finest there is. When you use the camera to focus on tight spaces, I'd like to see more of those places explored. Places where you have to get low to the ground, crawl, or squeeze through. That would be so great. In addition, I appreciate you checking out the comments and reacting to your fanbase. Thank you for everything.
The clouds and the colorful slides remind me of a memory I do not recall.
So much atmosphere in both the visuals and audio. I especially love the subtle air currents we hear at 6:06. The variations in color temperature from the different lights is a really nice touch too. I'm so glad I subscribed after the previous one ^^
means you have synesthesia. what color are you trying to see?
5:36 This is what I heard, for example, the blue and yellow colors are like the dry season in the mountains
Man this is literally real looking. And these corridor design and the forever upstair shot. I feel like I was stuck in time in the 80s/90s not playing forward and left alone for eternity.
its not real?
@@Lynn-ip9sh It's CGI with VR. It is pretty damn convincing, especially with the filters on it.
@@some1namedno1 wow I would have never guessed. I thought it was an old film 😮
Oh so this is fake. Was going to report this for being fucking weird.
@@Lynn-ip9sh right it's weird. Made me worry, who has this and why
Great work! Have me the chills while I was watching it! The chair falling over 😱
this series is some of the most well-done horror i’ve ever seen. the atmosphere is oppressively thick and lonely, yet beautiful and imaginative. i’m in awe.
This is like asmr to me. Like, I can feel myself getting sleepy from this. Very calming and peaceful. It reminds me how I would wander around cons late at night to get out my last bit of energy before sleeping. 🥰
