If it wasn't for my current mental health status, I'd be interested in buying it.
For some reason I'm DRAWN towards liminal spaces/backrooms.
Maybe it's part nostalgia , or part of wanting to be somewhere timeless?
It does not creep me out in the least, though I suspect many are.
Are you referring to the physical liminal spaces?
I have had a fascination with liminal spaces long before I heard of it. I have always like Salvador Dali's surreal landscapes and others like them. In some of my dreams, the liminay is apparent. In real life or in my dreams I have this attraction to desolate places that are mostly void of life. Silent and sterile where I am one of the few, usually next to a large and deep body of dark still water. I can go only so far on land and never far into the water that may harbor something large and dangerous.
Stephen King's The Langoliers miniseries (1995) did a great job with the concept of liminal spaces IMO. Way ahead of the curve with that story.
Yes I mean physical liminal spaces. Abandoned , desolate, eerie , feels unsettling but comforting at the same time as there's no concept of time or such, it's hard to explain why I'm drawn to it.
