Regardless, there is an emphasis on “transitional” and that should really be the greatest factor in determining what is and isn’t a liminal space. This is just a short addendum for anyone confused.

I died when he said it was the background for a lego set.

I feel like they are like corpses. They used to be filled with life, movement, and potential. Now they are just a dead body left behind as the life moves on.
-
I once got lost at laser tag when I was a kid. The buzzer went off, everyone left the game room and I heard the doors slam shut. For five minutes I walked around in the dimly lit, foggy, silent room and continued to search for an exit. What was once full of life and noice was now dead. It was the most "liminal space" feeling that I've ever gotten. Someone eventually realized I was missing and they came in for me
-
"I'm Thinking of Ending Things" is a film that uses liminal spaces like empty schools, convenience stores at night, and childhood homes to great unsettling atmospheric effect.
-
does anyone remember when you got to school, and some of the lights weren't on yet?
-
The Spongebob episode where he misses the last bus is a liminal space
-
The abandoned malls always get to me. As a teen in the 90s malls were everything. We always went there and hung out. it was the place to be. But to see it empty and abandoned it feel so weird. Like you can hear and see what should be there and is not. It hits a nerve.
-
I think something else is to consider is that when you were younger, rooms felt a lot larger and open. So when we see them this way in liminal spaces it can remind us of that feeling
-
You know when you have a dream and you're in your house, but it isn't your house, but it is?
-
Empty Multiplayer maps have this feeling too.
-
Now it makes perfect sense why the first tomb raider game was so freaking fascinating to me as a kid.
-
liminal spaces actually give me a rather librating and relaxed feeling. free from peoples jugments and the worries of the world. u got nothing to do but to look at the space, explore it and play in it
-
The unsettling feeling you are experiencing is guilt for pushing all those people into the river in LEGO city.
-
I think it's creepy because it looks lonely, but it doesn't feel lonely.
-
17:34 it's great to see a once unpopular unrecognized photo like this being used in your video. I was recently watching a Wendigoon stream in which him, Kane Pixels, and Alex Kister were watching different analog horrors. When Kane said "he got the image of the rolling giant from a Solar Sands video". I think it's cool that I was able to find this out and see how other creators can influence eachother.

17:34 i knew i have seen the rolling giant before holy shit
-
I think this concept is why The Shining is so creepy; it’s a hotel that should have lots of people living in it, but it’s completely empty.
-
“The Last man on earth is sitting alone in his house. There’s a knock on the door” Gives off similar vibes to these pictures for me
-
If you've ever had an eye test and have seen that red-roof house surrounded by the greenest green field and the most standard blue sky, you'd probably have had an early experience in Liminal spaces.
-
It makes you feel like you shouldn't be there. No one/nothing else is there, so why are you? It's empty for a reason
