Question

How do I get into the backrooms?

Community Answer

The backrooms are fictional, and you're not, so you can't get there. Someone who reads or thinks about the backrooms before bed might dream that they're "in the backrooms," but that's just a dream and they'll wake up safe in bed afterward. While you can't enter fictional places, you can try safely exploring your school, work, recreational, or other local buildings for a little adventure. You can also try your hand at writing your own backrooms story.

Question

Can you bring a gun into the backrooms?

Community Answer

While it is impossible to actually enter the fictional place, I believe, if it were real, that you could bring anything into the Backrooms, as seen in Kane Pixel's video.

'Noclipping' is possible in most video games but not in real life. However, you can try to write your own Backrooms story, as mentioned above.

Question

What if I get scared of it and can't get it off my mind?

Olivia

Community Answer

Tell your parents, grandparents, friends, therapist, teacher, babysitter, etc. Every time you think about it, remind yourself that it's not real, and it can't hurt you. Focus hard on those words. Distract yourself with something you love. Meditate in your room or wherever you feel a peace. Remember it's not real. It's just some creepypasta that some guy came up with to get likes. Don't let it take over your mind.

Who created backroom on 4chan?

Olivia

Nobody knows for sure. It's just an anonymous member on 4chan who wanted to make a creepypasta.

Isn’t this from an old webpage by a HobbyTown in Oshkosh, Wisconsin?

Yes, the original picture was taken in a HobbyTown in Oshkosh. However, the original concept of the Backrooms derives from a thread on the 4chan website.
