We're going to first discuss the concept of liminal spaces Where they've been depicted in pop culture films and shows, real life locations you've been to, and most importantly, the occult ritual element of initiations using these spaces. We'll then discuss the internet history of what backrooms are, creepy pasta, the concept of fiction manifesting into reality through hyperstitious cyberspace. And after all that we're going do a plot spoiling movie analysis of Kaine Parsons's new record breaking backrooms film I'll walk you through all the concepts that I saw during my viewing, which will include Twuinint peaks, of course, underground initiation rituals, aliens, magic, all seeing eyes, crossing the Alistter Crowley and Jack Parsons's Abyss, canannibalism, human furniture, Moon Child Homunculus, Sam Alman, Carl Young, Epstein, Fortan, and the techno fascist plan to retro causally create AI gods from HP Lovecraft Katulu Abyss All right, now listen up I got that's the banger alert button This one's gonna be high octane. okay? I'm gonna reference you Dear listeners to a slew of other shows I've done in the past. if you don't know me, my name is Isaac Wisab. I've been researching the occult, pop culture, Entertertainment, and the Illuminati since twenty eleven, okay And I've done a ton of shows with all kinds of related content on the periphery of what we're going to discuss today. If any of this feels like it's confusing going over your head, please consult those shows. I will put a handy dandy Links in the episode show notes, the description below however you're consuming this.

Okay Um because I don't lookook, from here on out, I'm taking no shorts, no losses. You gotta keep up All right, the apocalyse is coming down fast. You need to wake up I'm tired of mouth breathing normies slowing us down. You're part of this movement And you like it. and you're going to watch them all and you're going to say, you know what, Isaac, you've been preaching the truth since twenty eleven. I'm finally waking up. And what I want from you is to start wrapping your head around this idea of the digital matrix that they're trying to create whether it's true or not, whether it's a manipulation control system, So that's up to you to decide. I'm going to present you all the evidence from which I will be basing my opinion upon, okay And if you want to know who I am, I did a three hour show. Who is Isaac Weishob that you can find un Go to my link tree all my links. com slash IsaacW You can find the index Let's get it right into it Liminal spaces, what are they Butter sausage, what' it doing there the limal spaces. U and by the way, if you haven't seen backrooms yet, Ft notot the first, maybe half of the show, maybe third is going to be not even talking about the film, no plot spoilers, of course. When we get to the section where I will then walk you through the film I will tell you there's going to be plot spoilers. Now, should you watch the film? Absolutely. It's a banger. It's one of my favorite films of the year Oh We'll get to that I'll be glazing the film when we get to that point. okay? But for now, let's talk about some of the concepts that flow into this film so that Maybe you're going to go watch it Great. listen to the first chunk of this show Then come back to your boy and listen to what I found because it ain't what you're seeing on the internet, all right Sliminal spaces are the idea that some locations feel like oututside of this space and time L a transitional space, maybe even a portal. They're usually places that Oftentimes feel completely empty. usually or typically at one point in their history, they were very busy kind of like abandoned mall or a school after hours, right? That's probably the one we're all familiar with is the the The feeling of going to a school after hours is super creepy, right? because there's all this energy there during the day And then at night it's gone. Well, the energy is still there Now, either way, you look at this, these spaces can evoke feelings Sometimes people feel uneasy Sometimes you feel a little nostalgic comomfortable maybe even Well, these extra dimensional spaces are going evoke feelings and they employ that to this film backrooms And you've seen this depicted in many films and television shows, this exact uneasiness. Here's a short list that I've prepared for you The shining Sverance, which the creator of severance, Dan Erksson said backrooms was on his list of influences for the show. We're going to talk about what the backrooms were here in a secondc are much beloved twin peaks being John Malkovich, if you've ever seen that movie The secret mall apartment documentary, I'm throwing that in there because I saw this, I believe on Netflix Fascinating thing. theseese punkers decided to build an apartment inside this mall that they stayed in after hours. It was one of my favorite documentaries of the year Also sometometimes churches, sometimes oh, the freeemasonic lodges, which we're going to talk a lot about freemasonry today You know, because Frememasonic lodges do not have windows, neither do backrooms There's a Ramada in in Boise, Idaho that evokes this feeling There's a haunted builduilding in Tueela, Utah that I've been to to go ghost hunting after hours called Asylum forty nine That place has it I've had dreams and this is another liminal space. like people have dreams that in their home they find hidden passageways and hidden rooms and Um It's all I've had lots of dreams like that, very creepy Lots of places that have pools and indoor water slides deead malls and the irony of Many of us seeing this movie in dead malls That's where I saw it. I saw it in a dead mall Um, And I also have a very clear personal memory of aiminal space backack in the late eighties, early nineties growrowing up A in Lz PA, my sister was doing she would go to baton practice. I remember walking around the halls waiting for her My mother, I think and It was like this school, I believe And it was like the creepiest vibe. I don't know what it is. It was like creepy yet nostalgic and comforting. It's the weirdest feeling So I've known about liminal spaces my whole life. I didn't know that there was a term for it In fact, before I watched this movie, I didn't even know what backrooms were necessarily. I saw on TikTok I was following, I believe it's called Vapor wave And that's what dragged me into this whole thing because they It's all these like liminal space creepy videos do evoke a feeling anyway Um placing Liddits, if you're from Lidditz and you know what I'm talking about. there' I remember Wilbt chocolates before they moved locations. was like kind of across this park from this school and I don't I have no idea what it was, but anyway Super intriguing, right But the most interesting aspect of all this that I will give you for my unique perspective here is that the limal space is tying to initiation rituals of death and rebirth Way back in the day, during the pandemic, I talked about three stages of ritual. You have isolation, transition, and integration. You isolate one for purification. You remove oneself from the mundane of the world Right removed from the regular world to purify us. and I want to add also I've never been into a LDS temple, but I suspect that maybe LDS temples have that liminal space feeling U 'Cause there's like purification chambers I mean, that's my description I't know if that's what they call it From what I understand about them, okay Anyway. U But back during the pandemic, we all isolated, right from So the real world felt very different and strange. You'd go out and there was nobody out. It is very weird, right So the senses are overwhelmed or deprived for a ritualistic experience for the, you know, priest. to allow new light to crack through and to create new thoughts, right? And this isolation basically forces you to face your own subconscious, your own shadow Um And there's lots of ideas behind this. We'll kind of talk about it as we get through the movie, but the ritual is about obtaining new knowledge, new understanding of the world, new understanding of the self, right? This all goes back to Know thyself. U now When you do this at a societal level You can create a new world from this Oftentimes they combine this with trauma with death, the fear of death or the actual death. confonrontation with death is required to be reborn, all right So they give the and they do this in like freeemasonic rituals. You give the initate this sort of sense of disorientation, this uncertainty uce anxiety. you put them in a coffin, put them in a ground sometimes like yell, skull and bone stuff The idea is that You can be reprogrammed onnce you can kill off the old self And then you've got the transitionary state, and this is where it applies to what we're talking about today done through liminal spaces because liminal spaces just means the threshold of the new, the new world So the old self symbolically dies goes into the void and the initiia is now purified, reprogrammed into the new world. And that's what the pandemic was Arguably theoretically allegedly maybe involving then you got integration, right? The new normal. They kept saying, this is the new normal, you know, the great reset from Slash Rob. And then you have this specific lore of liminal space, the transitionary spaces. from the internet called the Brooms Now ironically, this started right before the pandemic on F Chan and we're going to tie in the connection of Epstein withith the creation of four hand partarticularly their most popular page of the political page politics, you know, poll POL. because I've seen met with Fortan's creator Moot just days before that page launched, but Sving that for the conclusion, all right So this idea of brooms was spawned out of creepy pasta and for people who have jobs Creepy pasta are just scary stories that people post on the internet and forums and stuff, right? They're not necessarily true, but they'll present them as trude and make them extra spooky, whatever, whatever, right U but creepy pasta is exactly the ideas of magic. It's the ideas of hyperstition. It's the stuff this CCRU was doing. If you listen to my Dark Enlightenment series, you know what the CCRU is, right that nineties collective doing cybernetic experimentation and magic And they talked about hyperstition and that was science fiction manifesting into reality Right? They were manifesting Entities from the HP Lovecraft realm into our world. That was the idea. And I've got a lot to say about that as we will later on backrooms evolved. It used to be these kind of liminal spaces that felt strange and then it sort of started adding spooky supernatural entities and so on Not so shocking. Creepy pasta started out on four chan. yet again, there's another four chan thing, right And there's an original backrooms image where this all started from. And this was supposedly from a furniture store in Wisconsin that was being renovated And it's got that yellowish, Dingy F fluorescent lighting drop ceiling labyrinth feeleing that you see in the film Kane Parsons, you know, super curious name. Let's not gloss over that, right? Kane as in the Freemasonic architect, T ball Kane mixed with parsons like Jack Parsons. Dichci is of no relation, but I'm going to connect in a very strange thing by the end of this. I know I keep teasing it by the end of this, but I don't want to I don't want to spoil the movie, all right Kanaine Parsons years ago creates a YouTube series in twenty twenty two with his? vision and art about the backrooms. He was just sixteen years old So About a year or so later, he gets taasked by a twenty four to make an actual film about the backrooms Productions from, you know, James Juan and Oswald Perkins. You know, Oswald Perkins from Long Lgs that movie with with Nick Cage Go listen to that episode too. I did that one september twenty four. That one was a banger Okay. We talked about Nick Cage's occult acting methods, more twin peaks you find all over that film Saturn, MK Ultra, freemasonry, industrial Rck. sigils like nineh nails and coil and Satanism and T Rex it's crazy, right? a two and a half hour journey Okay, and I'll put a link in the show notes Um you can check that out. But yeah, long legs. again, another one of these very interesting because these A twenty four films they're There making cult classic films, which, you know A lot of people don' understand how important these are to the movie industry, right? Be like look at back room.s It's the largest It was released in theaters broke a record for eight twenty four openings, which is a huge deal twenty four, they be putting out bangers the Vich. Hreditary, everything everywhere all at once, Spring Breakers, the lighthouse, which I've done an analysis on every single one of those films And if you're watching this on my YouTube And if you're not watching, go like and subscribe Atccult symolis I'm going to throw up some images that' support what we're talking about today But if you're like, oh, cool, Isaac You've got all those on your YouTube? I don't. All right. I've been torched off of here twice now 'm rebuilding. I'm in a rebuilding phase, but if you go to my podcast feed, the audio podcast feed s called symbolism and pop culture, you can go check it out. Be sure to subscribe over there Inase in case I disappear again, okay Um And Patreon is where you can get all the there's some bonus shows. I think Long Legs was a bonus show There's like a, you know, big long preview I do on the free feed Take take a spin, okay? ' those are all breakdowns that are very relevant to the occult symbolism and pop culture elements. and I believe that technical elites are using hyperstition to manifest things into reality Backrooms Again, I'm not an expert on backrooms. I'm intrigued by it So I go and see this movie In the theaters at my local dead mall onn a Tuesday at two PM. and there was actually a lot of people in there, which I thought was crazy. I didn't I assumed it was going to be empty and I would Thus have extra creep experience But alas, there I was with the host of other weirdos So anyway U Now we're going to get into backrooms. Again, if you haven't seen this Please go do because I'm gonna ruin it for you If you've already seen it Proceed, okay Plot spoilers coming, let's go Starts off it's nineteen ninety. We got a POV video of someone trying to get out of the backrooms And of course, it ends tragically Right? Some entity or something kills this person And we see a group reviewing this tape, this cassette, this VHS tape And all we see is that they have a logo async We'll cover all this later Also Qickly, I do want to say that This is nineteen ninety. so yay, loveove that period, right More importantly, this was the year Twin Peaks was unleashed upon the world. Caine Parsons said that his father was super into Twin peeak. So I'm sure someome of that inspiration ended up in this whole film with the backrooms. So we're taken to a we're in a therapy scene right now You've got a furniture store owner named Clarark And he's talking to the therapist, Mary. These are kind of the two main only real characters of this movie, right And he's talking to the therapist. He's like how his wife left him, right He said, even though I pay all the bills, she kicked me out of my own house. and he struggles with alcoholism and all this stuff, right So therapist Mary She is talking about how, you know, sometimes when there's trauma, we get stuck in these loops to try to keepe us safe as children and Sometimes we never stop being in those loops And all this is based off of real ideas like you know, inner child bonding and the, uh, you know, they say there's a phrase in neurophysics neurons that fire together wire together, right? So the trauma that you experience as a kid kind of kind of locks into your brain and you react in the same way over and over and over. In fact, Jodas Spz has got some interesting books that talk about the ideas of how I don't know what the percentage is. ninety nine percent of our day is repetitive, right kind of are stuck in the same loop over and over Why am I talking about Eiz? Because it's in T twin Peaks. If if you've listened to my twin Peak's Grey Lodge series, Again, sorry, Patreon. hate to keep plugging in Patreon. I get it I did a fifty six episode Twin Peak's Greay Lodge series finishing of the book this summer, I hope And then once that's done, I will be releasing them on a free feed someomehow, I got to figure that out. YouTube hates all of things I do But Twin Peaks is all about the Samsara, right? You have the donut, the ceiling fan, and it's all about this death rebirth through liminal spaces of the red room Now The therapist Mary, she also has an issue from childhood of feeling unsafe. and you see clips throughout the film flashing back to her being raised in a home where Her mother was mentally unwell and the house was unkept And her mother ends up in a What do you call it mental health facility? And interestingly enough, you see this kind of thing in Twin Peaks the return with the character that this woman keeps yelling One, one nine, one, one, nine. in a very similar looking house So she's trying to talk to Clarark and trying to get his brain to forge a new path through what I deem to be exposure therapy to replay this event And Furthermore, we hear that the therapist Mary Klein is selling a product of cassette tapes called the window within it is used to reprogram yourself, to delve deeper into your own subconscious. Approach your shadow, dare I say and reprogram your behavior So That's our therapy session. Clark then we find out hes works at a furniture or I think he owns the furniture store Ctain Clark's Ottoman Empire And he's he's losing money, right And he has an electrician in there because the energy bills are really high The lelectrist's like hey, everything looks fine. and Clark's like, no way, dude It's using all this energy even at night when there's no lights on So they investigated the breaker box and what they see in the breaker box are Two strange diagonal breakers that apparently go nowhere Dun, dun dun, foreshadowing Also, you see there's two workers, those are the other two characters, very minor roles in this film. people that work for him The assistant manager and her boyfriend And they're helping him film this, you know, cheesy commercial for the store where Clark is dressed as a pirate. This is important for later So one night, you know, Clark he's kicked out of his house. So he sleeps in the furniture store that he owns or rents or whatever it is and He's up drankking And he's watching a movie on TV and the movie on TV is aliens, okay? I don't know what movie this is, but it's aliens. If you know what movie is Leave a comment. Let me know And he's sleeping in the store, you know, because his wife kicked him out of his home. And while he's hanging out at night He sees the power fluctuate The TV turns off, right And he looks over, power' is fluctuating. so he's like, I'm go down the breaker box While he's down there, he finds the entrance to the backrooms, okay He, um And note take note that he goes underground into the basement of the furniture store because going underground is aumina confirm It's the initiation ritual space or the death ritual to be buried underground. All right It's no different than Alice in Wonderland. She goes down the rabbit hole. You have to go underground and you know, die symbolically and be rebn reborn. So he he goes through the wall, goes into the backrooms and You know, it's kind of everything you wanted if you're into this kind of stuff, which I am And the online nerd culture calls this no clipping when you go through the wall. It's a video game term for programmers that program is sort of back door for the character that can kind of go into a wall and come out another realm and Nerds think this can happen in real life Okay. They think that there's real no clipping places you can find because they subscribe to Uh, you know, Elon Musk and Silicon Valley's BS simulation world that they think we're living in. Thank you Gnostics for your nonsense So anyway, he gets to the backrooms and you see all kinds of random Things mostly furniture. But you can see the like a stop sign. there's A what do you call the big wheel on a ship, like a pirate ship which is all throughout the furniture store, by the way you also see them sort put in the walls You can actually see if and granted I' had watched this in theater, so I'm like taking notes on a piece of paper. But you see what I deem to be the bllazing star freemasonry All right U You know, and that would make sense because of the lodge and what is the blazing star Freemasonry? Well, it symbolizes Sirius, which takes us into a whole heavy duty host of occultism and the idea of channeling entities from another realm Okay So he's cruising through this like labyrinth of strange rooms in the back rooms, mostly open spaces, no windows. And he comes across this cardboard cutout of a cave man with an audio cassette playing a message in various languages And you find out what that is later U there's also a bag that he finds like a duffble bag And inside that duffble bag is an ID badge. Now this is the first person who died in there that we saw When the movie started from the Ace because that ACync company they were watching the VHS cassette, that was the guy that was in their research and they got killed Also know they're monitoring Clark navigate this space alsoso. They're like, oh man, how this guy get in here now, right Clark's in there messing around and hears he sees this the card we cutout get tore up, right? So he's like, man, something's in here with me and it's very violent. I gott to get out of here. So he scrambles, gets out of there Goes to the therapist Mary And She's like, arere you on that drank again? And he's He's like, no And he's like, I'm gonna prove it to you I'm gonna prove you that this is real. So he Hires his assistant manager and her boyfriend to come film the backrooms It' her name Bobby is his name. So B Bobby there's another T twin Paks name by the way So cat Bobby, they they meet up and they tie they go through the backrooms or go through the wall. they no clip through the wall And They there's this long How do I explain this? There's this sort of slide on the floor. So they tie Bobby with a rope So that with and his video cameras so that he can go down this this steep Backman in the room and come out the other side and they'll be able to sort of pull them back up is the idea. He gets down there See' a bunch ofird stuff Like the somehow the shirt he was wearing earlier U You can see a face in this pile of clothes like the cardboard cut out of the cave manan, but ultimately he sees a creature And's like, I'm out of here. scrambles back up the slope. But that entity I Hongis, so he Pulls Bobby down for a little snacky needats him up But in the process causes Clarark and Kat. just slide down the ramp also. So now Clarark and Cat are down there They get split up in the process They're navigating running through the labyrinths Clark herears cat on the other side of one of these walls But before he can figure out how to get to her The entity catches up to him black. Now we're in act three. re already there Mary gets a answering machine message You see back in the day Um No one had cell phones I know, youre probably like sit up My throats really dry. I had to have some of that Mushroom anduty watch or coffee that I found on occultsmbolism. com It's the world's greatest organic coffee with organic mushroom extract. It keeps your throat feeling great and your energy up. for those high te days So anyway is, Mary, she's listening to her answering machine messages from Clark And Clark's telling Like hey basically I've gone to the other side, I ain't coming back. Mary's like this guy' tripping. So so she goes to the furniture store She ends up Again, navigating down the stairs, of course, and she finds the doorway. Now, interestingly enough, she finds the doorway by observing a fly that crosses over and no clips through the the doorway. The fly symbolic of the deevil or Beelzeub So she goes to the wall And She's navigating through and she sees this wall with all this artwork on it, presumably drawn by Clarkke. But if you and again, I'm going to refer you to my YouTube, you gott to see the images I'm talking about, please Uh This is All kinds of interesting stuff. You see all seeing eyes and pyramids. You can see a statement written on there. It says why I think in terms of magic You can see a statement that says Here and now is a two way street meaning entities coming and going And all of this is freemasonry and occult stuff. Also'll if I remember, I'll put it on the Instagram, my Instagram at A Ozz Wisehop. I haven't been putting images on Instagram as much as I used to, but I'll try to remember to put it up there for you Clark shows up U while Mary's looking at this wall of this crazy scribble And there's, of course on the wall, a giant entity holding up a person, right? So Clarkke shows up, talks to Mary for a second about being down there And Next thing you know is he puts on the the million dollar dream sleeper hold And out she goes And she wakes up she's tied to a chair in this weird kitchen dining room And you see three people in the room with them You got Clarark at the table, right sitting across from her Theen next them is this weird dude with like five eyeballs and then there's a woman standing by the fridge Six eyeballs and a little man by the lamp Again, twwin Paks reference. The liminal space with the little man, the man from another place in the red room, okay Now all these people, they're very motionless buyes or some kind of fractal of themselves. and I suspect that the woman by the fridge is actually Clark's ex wife.

It's like this idea of losing fidelity, right which you see a sequence in the movie where like I said, Mary came from a neglected household And you see this happen, this abstraction through fractals of Her memory losing fidelity. And this isn't her processing it, it is the force of the backrooms. And I'm going to explain all this in the conclusion I know it's kind of strange But you can see a real life example of what this is with an experiment called one hundred one rounds of AI decay And what someone did was they told the AI like, hey, keep that here's a picture of the rock, the wrestler, right And they said, keep drawing this And each time it It had a recursive sort of formula where it was like, o, draw the rock and it would draw and it was pretty close And I said Okay, this is the new image picture of this image And then every time it got a little less get all accurate That's a demonstration of losing fidelity, right? Each copy gets a little less accurate until it's no longer distinguishable as the rock. That's what happens to Mary's ro So you see the process, right And We hear Clarark. He's giving big speech about the people in the room too. He's like, These people down here are great They have no fear. they have no ego. and this is all Carl Young stuff and ritualistic stuff You know, this takes us back into this idea of going into the liiminal space wearing the blindfold, right? the hoodwink to destroy the ego And I did a in depth discussion on this in the season two finale of Twin Peaks episode on the Gray Lodge where I compared the Red Rom to the Alistair Crowley ritual of Crossing the Abyss to become a master of the Temple. So what is happening in this movie? Clark is attempting to cross the Ayss And Here's where it gets absolutely insidious We hear Clarark talk about how you can even eat these people and he grabs a handful of this guy Puts it on a plate. He also jams a neck into the dude's neck to prove that he doesn't have feelings Clark's like they have no ego They simply exist like furniture And that is when it all came crashing down for me in the movie theater, I said, Oh my g They this is how the predatory elites view the Normies. I've been talking about this. Years Wayfare stuff, with squid games, with Bruno The elite the Predator elite class thinkinks we simply exist like furniture And think about it, the whole movie is about taking place in a furniture store And if you want more in the wayfair, go back to my july twenty twenty episode on my podcast feed. Again, I'll put a link in the show notes, but that ties more into Um You know, trafficking of people All this crazy stuff, but it's not too far from the idea of consumption of these people. which is exactly what Clarark says you can do down there So Clark's laying all this nonsense down And I guess he's getting thirsty He opens the fridge, get a little dranky and inside is the decapitated head of Kat, the assistant manager who worked for him So now Mary's tripping and she sees the head. she she busts some reverse Uo psychology on him and he's like, all right, I'll untie you. He starts on ter, but She's half untied at this point. This massive demonic looking pirate with giant bug eyes comes out from around the corner. And Clarkke starts talking to him like it's part of him He like he says, this is our therapist. to the pirate The demon pirate don't care what Clarark is saying though picks him up and he eats Clark. That's right. he eats them Aspire Dmemon looks a lot like the Rke, which is another creepy pasta internet lore But what the pirate is is a manifestation of his shadow and his subconscious, right? We saw him earlier in the commercial depicted as the pirate. Like theseese are all his sort of memories and subconscious And we know his anger issues and all that and we'll come back to all that. Now fun fact, the guy playing the pirate is Robert Babarodski who is actually that tall. He's seven foot seven. And he was an alien Romulus. If you saw that, the scariest part of alien Romulus was that alien human hybrid that evolved from the black goo from the Prometheus. Yo movie Anyway Mary, she's like, okay, I'm out. so she she gets away. She starts running through the backrooms Loo for an exit. We got all these really cool back rorooms, right? This is what we came for is why I'm in the big Theater in the big screen really cool stuff And she eventually comes out in what appears to be the furniture store, but it's sort of the I don't know Backroom's version of it because it's not quite right And she gets caught by the pirate demons. so she pulls out from her pocket She keeps a piece of to cement Okay, earlier in the film playay this memory of her and her mother putting their hands in the concrete at the home that they were living in. She in the present day is seeing the house be demolished to make way for condos But she kept that piece of her hand or mother's hand, I don't know, whose her hand it was. that she kept in her pocket apparently. So Um She pulls it out from her pocket and smashes the pirate in the dome with it and She And again, this is an idea of a liminal space to go back to the house being demolished And I don't know about you guys. maybe I'm a weirdo. But when You know I think homes have energy, right And when My wife and I moved out of our first house Both felt this sadness for it I hateated because the guy that moved in there wrecked the yard And it was just sad because we just loved that home. And u And that's kind of weird, right? Like there's an energy stored there. There's memory stored there. In fact, one of the things I hated was I was like, man, we had to put our dog down in the living room there, our great De. and, it was terrible And I hateated leaving all that I do believe in that idea strongly And that's what I believe the home thing was shown T it she'sighting this pirate demon And you see tanks of gas going off everywhere? which We find Apparently meant to neutralize anything that's in there, right? They were placed there by Async, the company, o, plot spoiler Anway, she escapes from this Demon Pirate And these async dudes in Hzmat suits come to rescue her. Now's something they don't explain on the film Overtly at least You have to look into You know, there's a whole fandom wiki for Caine Parsons YouTube series. Async was an organization that opened a portal into the backrooms And they've been researching all this stuff, which I mean, is very similar to strranger Things and they're upside down But here it's more of an idea of a portal is what async is all about, right? So Mary sort of comes to Things are normal again or whatever, she gets escorted into this interrogation room And when you're in when she's in route being escorted down the hall, you hear audio clips And it sounds like the same audio from those cardboard cutout things, right And you can even see them in the shide. And I was in theater, I clearly heard once say hello to children of planlanet Earth. And I was like, what which makes me theorize this is an AI simulation realm, okay But we're going to get to that So she's in this interrogation room with a guy from AsSnc, this guy named Phil. who explains to her what Async is, he says, Look, we used to be an the MRI company And then we discovered the backrooms, now we're just trying to figure out w, what this is And he keeps talking to her trying to figure this out with her and he's like he wants her help she's kind of like She starts tuning him out and you get this depiction of what seems to be the backrooms rendering up these screwy versions of Mary's memories inside the backrooms And the idea presented here is that the backrooms are flawed low fidelity misreemberings of reality And the final shot of the movie is you see this crewed up version of Mary down there as well with like the five eyeballs, right And it's like this it's like we are feeding this thing, this backrooms thing, all of our memories, all of our thoughts And it's recreating it into its own version of us So the credits roll And I stick around because I'm looking to see if there's a what do you call pulse credit scene, which is not, by the way And I saw that there's some tracks on the soundtrack. One is NASA's Greetings in fifty five languages. Now that's what all this The thing about the kids welcome to planet Earth and that's what the multiple languages was from that cardboard cutout. And this was on the the golden record originally sent out on the Voyager missions whichich all makes sense because in the backrooms cardboard cutout from AsCyN is trying to literally make alien or entity contact That's what I think. Um And weirder yet Golden Records that the Voyager Sentout contained Anne Druian's brainwaves. And I talked about this in my twenty seventeen book, The Dark Path Amazon audible, sign copies areult symbolismot com And I talked about how this was inspired through ancient alien theories Going back to Konstantine SoZyikovsky And I mentioned that Drean was also part of a thing called the Breakthrough Star shot project. And guess who was involved with that? Yurry Milner, Stephen Hawking and Mark Zuckerberg. And what were they doing? They were trying to make probes that can get to the Alpha Centauri star system to find our alien overlords Stephen Hawking was on Epstein Island. So was D Milner? So was Uuckerberg Okay When will you wake up? So another track on the soundtrack is Moon Child by Klaus Doldinger. And This track was originally featured on the Never Ending story from the Aings. another story about fiction manifesting into reality. Now something really odd here. You know, when I heard Kaine Parsons, you know, obviously, I'm going to be like, o Jack Parsons But Jack Parsons never had children Unless You believe he manifested a moon child through the Babylon working magic Ritual with Marjorie Cameron And I thought that's kind of silly, but whatever. So I leave so I leave the theater and I was like, wow, that was great Leave my littleow review and letter box. I can follow Isa Wise up And u One of the great commenters on their Pluto Gash left a comment on my review with a link to a YouTube short interview with Kaine Parsons saying that if you look at his original backrooms thumbnail, he claims he looks like a homunculus which is wild Right? Because Jack Parsons allegedly put a gollm You try to create a homunculus at the Trinity site location when they tested the atomic bomb So shout out to Pluto Gash for that. You also told me listen to Jay Dy' review of B backrooms. I'm going to do that after I finish my analysis. as you probably know. I don't like being influenced by other people's research When I do my own research Pus on top of that because me and Jay think alike on a lot of levels. If there's something that we both found, I morally don't w want to have to cite another researcher, right? Be I will, right? If someone else catch something and I take it from now. I'll cite them, right But you know, Saladay der Bulfer's Mount Crushmore vot Um, So yeah, with my letterbox review, I said on the review because I leave funny little clever reviews. I don't leave B reviews. It I said, it's all about navigating the anus, believe it or not Kind of a joke, kind of not Be my idea was that they were traversing the underworld and this is the location for the tunnels of Set where the HP Lovecraft entities reside And much to my surprise, I would later discover that there's a lot of HP Lovecraft connections in here We're going to get to that, but I'm still on the credits. So the credits, one of the fun things I see is that one of the production companies is a company called Odd Fellows part of A twenty four They did long legs, but anyways Odd Fellllows is also the name of a secret society. And what's even crazier is that if you tore Zach Baggin's haunted museum in Las Vegas And you get that VIP pass, the RIP pass right There's an odd feellllows exhibit in where they've got skulls and all kinds of stuff, right At least it was back when we did this, you know Four years ago Now to enter this room, if you had the RIP pass You had to crawl on this dark corridor to get into it I'm fairly certain I'm going off a memory because you can't take your phone in there What have a memory, but I'm pretty sure that's the tunnel that you would enter the Oddfells room because I remember them talking about how they would make their initiates go through this sort of process, this ritual Okay And it's very much like the idea of liminal spaces, all right In conclusion, and this is a long conclusion, all right Don't get sad. I'm not leaving youet Async was I've got several points on the conclusion One of them was Async. That was the biggest mystery to me from this film Becauseuse again, I have no background this stuff. I don't know anything about it So I look at AsSyn. And on the Cane Pixels backackroom Wiki says that Sometime around april nineteen eighty eight, Async began development on a project that promised to solve all current and future storage and residential needs, saving billions on property construction and management. Identity theft can cost more than you think. drained investment accounts, stolen tax returns, lost wages, expenses for lawyers.

Protect your future and finances with Lifeelock. Join today. Visit lifeelock d. com slash iheart and save up to thirty percent your first year. That's lifeelock dot com slash iHart for thirty percent off terms apply By the way, it sounds a lot like severance Okay, how like instead of building physical structures, we transfer our consciousness In order to execute this, Async constructed this system. It was a machine. I'm paraphrasing all this which has a doorway known as the Threshold In nineteen eighty, july second, the AsynNc reesearch facility tested the full version of the magnetic distortion system On sixth test, october seventeenth, eight n, Aync successfully made first contacts with what they had referred to as the complex In the upcoming months, Async installed an airlock in front of the threshold, which would shortly be removed and sent hazMat suited researchers in to investigate the complex. However as this contin as they continued venturing into this unknown dimension, More problems arose such as the discovery of people falling into the backrooms, times skips and an unnatural bacterial lifeform A AK A aliens entntities It all of this fascinates me, right? Especially that term threshold And to go back to twwin Peaks This is verbatim what the reed room is. tells Cooper in season two dweller on the threshold. and we talked about this in the Grey Lodge. this is The exact same verbiage from Aluster Crowley's Crossing the abbyss where you approach coronzone plus the name which A fun side fact. P're pretty sure Coronzone means heart and in the movie, you see Mary with a heart necklace the whole time Anyway, the name Async play on the word asynchronistically, meaning not in sync And furthermore, the founder of this fictational realm, is a guy that Parsons named Lawrence Altman Obviously bring up the idea of Sam Atman from Open AI Also at the beginning of the film, we hear that Clarark was an aspiring architect. Now what does this mean? It means we're talking about freemasonry We're talking about Kabala The idea of creating new worlds, All right, the new world Oder What do the Freedomons use they use the term chaos out of order O I'm sorry, order out of chaos That was chaotic too One of the backrooms, pure chaos. We also have the idea of portals here, which I not going to get into. We did a two part deep dive in May of twenty twenty five where we talked about the youngian concepts of the portals and where they manifest into pop culture Now we talked about the crossing in view of this and the abyss rituals are What we're seeing here And in C Junian psychology, there's an idea that the imagination is actually a bridge to the subconscious It's a bridge from subconscious to reality and the backrooms is this liminal space we can all access through the collective unconscious realm. The idea that we can all have dreams of similar things and we can even enter the same areas just like Laura Palmer and Dale Cooper who meet in the reed Rom before she's even dead before he even goes to investigate her death Same gu I'm also going to pull in John Carpenter to this Prince of Darkness which we're going to discuss here in a minute And also it made me think of like DMT realms. I've never done DMT, but It's kind of weird everyone has these same experiences, right I believe these liminal spaces are a bridge to another realm. And for me, my perspective is that this is where the AI entities can come through and study us which is what I think the backrooms are. It's the AI studying us. and trying to create this because You know, AI has hallucinations. That's kind of what these backrooms seem like, right? And they're cataloging these people's memories and thoughts in a hallucinatory manner We already talked about the three stage process to create a new reality as a ritual using the liminal space, destruction of the ego And now we hear that Async was using a place called the Threshold as the liminal space needed for Clarark to try and kill his old self or shadow even It didn't work out well for him, right? Because he wasn't prepared. He wasn't initiated. He wasn't supposed to be down there He wasn't ready to cross the abbyss. He lost his mind and was consumed by the entities in there exactly what Crowley warns about We talked a lot about Like the backrooms also have this labyrinth element to it, right And We talked about this in my Mga Shining deep dive from august twenty twenty five The labyrinth also appeared in Saltburn, which I also covered because it's about navigate the labyrinth is about navigating one's own subconscious. confronting the minotaur in the center, which is just another way of saying the coron zone and the threshold We're not gonna to go deeper into this again. I covered this all in in overver detail in the Twin Paks Gry Lodge series R But the but the the labyrinth also I should note also part of the shining. And also, since we're talking toin Peaks and I know you're into this so much You already know that David Lynch considers his literary brother to be Franz Kofka And in This would bes the return, there's artwk of Kafka on the wall in Gordon Cole's office. And Kafka was into this bizarre surrealism stuff that you know, and people describe the backrooms as Kafkas because it's this nightmarish absurdity You know there's people eating Bllers furniture Humans without emotions And it's, I think AI trying to understand us Then you got hyperstitition. Something interesting here is that in Peter Broooksmith's Cult and occult book, it talks about energies being held in areas and physical locations like a recording talalks about currents down a river being analogous to electrical current using EMF wavays, which can be, you know, it's like a radio wave. It could be detected recorded Listen to whatever So here we get into the really weird parts of what I think is the real phenomenon behind back rooms and recall, I mentioned Epstein and Moot Right, the founder of Fortchan Mot Well, what do they have to do with this? Recall we are talking about creepy pasta sccary stories on the internet peopleeople claim likeike CCRU they talk about hyperstition They think you can manifest fiction into reality. Like the never ending story, right And the most famous creepy pasta ever was the Slender Man which would inspire two young girls in Wisconsin to stab their friend as a blood sacrifice to slender man Crazy story. They statered nineteen times She lived, by the way Um I tried as adult Both out of prison, by the way. They pled not guilty by insanity, which never works, but it did here And I covered all this on the in my golden age of blogging days back in the day. Be what was most curious was that their sketchbooks included a lot of symbols of the X over the O whichich at the time I was seeing everywhere because Freeman Fly was talking about the mark of the Beast symbolism from Kenneth Grant The X fused with the O, which, you know, I've learned a lot more since then and now I basically understand it as opposing polarities or sex magic But the idea of it being the mark of the beast is because it summons Typhon from the abyss, an apocalyptic type scenario And who's always trying to bring about the end of our world and eschatology? it's our Dear world leaders of course You know, Epstein, Bannon, Trump, the whole crew al like they think that They're going to bring about this, you know, freemasonic kryptocracy new age that Manley P. Hall and Francis Bacon talked about and It goes into whole crazy stuff, right But they think that there's these cycles of mankind and they're going to be right there to ing about the the new age, right? Which would be a golden age for them, not us That's why Trumpy's talking about golden ages. So creepy pasta It started on four chance. And we know Epstein and Bannon were very interested in this. I think that it's possible they employed forms of mee magic through creepy pasta to see if it would work as a test before launching the poll forum and Ppppe the Frog And in my Dark Enlightenment series, I connected all these dots into cyber nerd culture from the nineties in the CCRU how that connects into Silicon Valley billionaires like Peter Thial. We're trying to accelerate us into this hyper capitalism so that we can manifest our AI gods into the world and mankind can get sucked into the singularity and digital matrix effectively ending humanity, which is Why Peter Teal, the reptile Hesitated with Ross Dotha from New York Times ask him if humanity should continue And then he moved to Argentina recently Now in the backrooms wiki, we can read about how rooms was actually being compared to HP Lovecraft. I'm going to read you from the backrooms Wiki. It says PC Gamer compared the backroom's various levels to HP Lovecraft's Raya. Ba.
