Imagine being transported into a dimension where you’re surrounded by places like these where you can’t exactly recall where you’ve seen them, but they bring in this sense of familiarity. And the only way you can go home is by identifying at least one of the places and where you’ve seen it. That would be absolute hell.

1:00 If you live in America and haven't passed by this house in a car ride, you haven't lived.

Imagine watching TV at 3am and then this just pops up

“It do be like that sometimes” - Gandhi

0:40 This one has got to be one of the scariest pictures for me -Abandoned (obviously) -Huge structures -Being able to see them underwater -All indoors

3:40 "sorry mister freeman I cant let you through here without your hazard suit"

1:40 is actually an IKEA play area for kids. I distinctly remember the smell of rubbery plastic.

the fact that NO ONE is visible in this WHOLE slideshow makes this disturbing edit: i know its the point, please stop replying to me about it.

Quiet kid: My house isn't that weird, c'mon! Enter! His living: 0:20 His backyard: 1:00 The outside: 3:20 His room: 1:40 His kitchen: 2:00, 2:40 His dinner table: 4:00 His pool: 0:40 The guest room: 3:00 His friend: I don't want to imagine the bathroom... *_T h e B a t h r o o m :_* *_3:40_*

0:40 that is probably THE coolest, most awesome swimming pool i have ever seen

1:44 is in an ikea near my house

I love these videos so much I can't even explain why-

This makes me feel sad, I don't know why.

1:00 holy shit that actually looks like my childhood friends' garden o_o

0:40, This place is strangely familiar, but edgy at the same time.

I fear that there will randomly be a person in one of these images.

0:40 gives me the strangest vibes for some reason

0:41 creeps me out big time.

I’ve seen the IKEA playplace not once, but TWICE in these videos, it’s at 1:44 in this video and somewhere else in another

why i think these feel familiar: each of them seem abandoned, yet look like they used to be so lively & happy. it creates an odd atmosphere where you feel nostalgic thinking of how many memories were made there. they all seem so happy. and a simpler reason is it seems like something that'd be common within the normal dreamscape.

0:56 POV: You're in the real life version of Delfino Pier from Mario Kart Wii, hiding in the underground portion with one balloon and hoping your team will win on their own, the rising water slowly forcing you to the surface

0:01 - You've went inside and don't know what to choose 0:20 - I wonder where this leads to? 0:40 - The water's fine but something's off 1:00 - Someone's crying in that house, just leave it 1:20 - They don't appreciate guests, Get the hell of here! 1:40 - I guess it's up to you, Go inside that tree 2:00 - Don't even think about fitting through that hole, Close your eyes and count to 10; then the door has now appeared 2:20 - Don't mind that, just keep walking 2:40 - This isn't the right place, Find a way out! 3:00 - You've made it out, but it gets darker; Gladly you found a flashlight 3:20 - I'm glad you've found a light source, you should go inside now 3:40 - I wonder where this leads to? 4:00 - It's daytime now, but don't go out yet; Try opening that door

1:45 I swear this one is probably an IKEA. I remember being a kid and going to this IKEA in New Jersey and my parents left me in their “kid zone”, it was basically a giant ball pit/playground where they had workers watch over kids while their parents shopped. I remember a giant fake birch tree and rock wall exactly like that one, and I also remember panicking because my parents just left me there and I had no idea why haha... I was just screaming non-stop until an employee got my parents to come back and get me. ...But yeah I feel like that’s what that is. An IKEA play zone for kids, just with all the toys and plastic balls taken out of it. Almost positive of that.

0:40 Looks like that one place from "Amnesia: The Dark Descent"

These types of images make me feel the same way I felt when I walked down the empty school hallway when it was dark outside, also I might feel this in my dreams too. It's kind of a mix between feeling uncomfortable, calm, sad, and curious.

0:40 is literally a memory of mine from when i was little. i can't remember what but i had a dream like that. it gives off such weird vibes that it's almost nostalgic in a way?

3:20 When I seen this I instantly knew I had been to this place, so I went into Google Maps and went to where this photo was taken, everything was identical, and I am sure this is my middleschool.

0:40 bruh that looks like something I built in Minecraft when I was seven i-

I kinda teared up while watching this, mostly because I was so scared, I don’t know why, my brother was right across from me, but this just sent chills down my back. The perspective, the rooms, the music all force me into the person standing in the room And The loneliness adds to it as well, probably the reason I get so unnerved. If there was atleast 2 people, hanging around the back, around my age talking to each other I’m sure I wouldn’t feel scared at all... I really like these videos!

Me: hmm this place seems familiar to me, wonder where i've seen it before.. Also me: *clicks on another video with the same title from another channel* The video: *shows the exact same picture from the previous vid* Me: hmm this place seems familiar, wonder where have i seen it before..

I'm fairly certain that we all know 3:40

Gmod maps before me and the boys start placing props be like:

Is there any diffrences between liminal space and unsettling but familliar pics??

0:40 this photo is so terrifying for me the thing is it looks a staircase to a deep pool with 8 pillars kinda scary...

this is a certified boards of canada moment

i’m high right now and lemme say.. im terrified

0:40 really scares the sh*t out of me. It looks exactly like a place I used to visit in my dreams when I was younger. And everything was just so quiet, lonely and off with It. Idk, It really makes me feel unconfortable.

The empty Ikea playground 😫Still remember the day I wasn't allowed there anymore

0:42 I'm absolutely in love with this one. I'd love to swim in there if it was an existing place.

When I saw the picture at 1:41 ,my jaw dropped and I was so shocked bc I've been to this place! but it was many years ago. Behind the white tower thingy is a spider web climbing net,and on the right side of the ball bath (idk how to call it) is a big wooden staircase

Float: Uploads Me: Today is a good day.

1:20 Imagine finding yourself lost here, where it's void of other people.

This is... oddly inspiring. Now I kinda wanna go out and find some for myself.

0:00 The mall level from Tony hawk pro skater 64? :D

I instantly recognised that 1:40 is one of those play areas in Ikea.

It caught me off guard the moment I first started to hear "Ready Lets Go" by Boards Of Canada begin to play; Geogaddi is a fantastic album!. (As well as their other music; I've been listening to this Scottish band for years!.) Overall, nice videos man! Keep up the great work!.

1:40 I’ve actually been to this exact place in real life. Times we’re simpler back than.

1:53 I've actually seen this place in a dream just with thicker walls and it's darker

0:47 “The stairs weren’t leading into the water, they were leading to the air.” 1:36 “All the flights had been canceled, except the one I was on. That’s why they were trying to stop me.” 1:44 “This is where I met the little ones. Unfortunately, this is the last time they would see me.” 2:13 “It was storming bad outside, and whatever the hell just came in wanted out of it.” 2:23 “I dropped the bait in the water and then dropped my fishing rod in shock. Gators aren’t supposed to glow... are they?” 2:49 “I relived that one day, where I had to be awake during the procedure. I pleaded to stop watching but, they aren’t persuaded easily.” 3:30 “The bell rung, but no one was there to usher us to class. But there were people that weren’t supposed to be there.” 3:47 “I did it, I made it out. Unfortunately, so did they.” Edit: Kept adding until I finished the video, and finished it so now they’re ready.

All these pictures are low in quality - blurry like a distant memory (or dream)

2:20 this bridge is very similar to that one in yume nikki

3:40 its the waiting room when the dream goes to a new story line

0:00 Is it just me or does that look like an amazing skate spot?

Omg I remember 1:40, its in an ikea. My parents used to put me there when I was little.

If you're planning on making your own version, USE DIFFERENT MUSIC FOR EACH IMAGE!

Strangely familiar places Photographer: *Hmmm*

1:41 FFVII flashbacks of "Where's the head?!"

1:40 I love how this is a Final Fantasy theme but it sounds so much like Gaster's theme

3:20 this might be the place where the meme “I have the power of god and anime on my side” Took place 2:20 Richmond River

0:20 OH BRO COME ON NOOOO YOU DID NOT JUST USE THE ENDLESS HALLWAY OST FOR THAG OMG

If you're looking for more soundtracks for these types of videos I feel like the Umineko ost might be of use to you. 'Eternal Chains', 'Lure', 'At Death's Door' etc.

1:47 thats an ikea playground in dennmark

The music alone makes it for me, watching this videos at midnight can make you space out, good stuff man

You always have a taste for finding great music to go with the pictures ! ^^

1:40 that's the IKEA playground, once a boy pissed in the ball pit it and they had to block the ball bit, i seriously want to go back to the place but only the age limit is 10 years old so i can't.

These photos simultaneously give me such an overwhelming feeling of loneliness, but also, at the same time, the feeling that I'm not alone.

0:00 that reminds me of places like REI where you can test shoes 0:21 that makes me think of the stairwell to that school you almost joined 0:41 that reminds me of nightmares ive had about public pools 1:05 that reminds me of every england movie 1:25 that is every airport ever mixed with the backrooms 1:43 that is the hotel playroom thing you were never allowed to play in right next to a bar 2:03 that reminds me of that home one of your relatives is renting 2:24 that is when you visit the beach for the first time at night and you realize how creepy it actually is 2:45 that is the lab at the aquarium you peeked into when you were a kid 3:08 thats just black 3:22 that is the middle school at night i feel like these timestamps are repeating 3:43 that is the bathroom at any public area that involves water or the bathroom at a school that tricked you and was only for teachers 4:03 that is your dads office’s cafeteria after your dad shuts the lights off to go home

OFF, now that’s a game I haven’t heard of in a long time.

1:42 that's the old playground in Ikea. I used to play in there a lot when I was a toddler

Dude!! Even though this triggered my anxiety, I actually thought up some stories for a few of these :3 (best way to make use of your time during quarantine) ( takes out pen and paper ) imma just write these down so I don’t forget :D I might fix or change them but for now, I’m writing down what I came up with.... 0:00 - ( still thinking for this one ) 0:40 - ( still thinking for this one ) 1:20 - (edit: I’ve started working on my own lore and story for these things which had heavily changed since I last wrote this) now first off, pretend this room has no lights, second, this building is long abandoned. There was a massive world wide blackout. Ya da ya da, paranormal investigator ( yes I’m going that route, shush) goes around and investigate stuff and happen upon a hospital ya da ya da..... ( claps ) time skip! Now for the interesting part! ( picture this, you’ve been walking along pitch black corridors for a few minutes now, all the rooms you’ve looked into are empty, no patients resting off their illnesses or doctors roaming the halls in search for their assigned rooms..... it’s just empty.... cut to an hour later, you start to hear the sound of a heart monitor beep coming from the Evp recorder you brought with you.... you turn it off but the sound of the beeping keeps getting louder until it’s the only thing you can hear. You fall unconscious, although it doesn’t feel any different from the darkness that surrounded you seconds ago. Moments have gone by until you wake up, but you find yourself lying in one of the hospital beds. You try to get up but you can’t. You look towards the doorway your facing and see a diamond shaped white light that was progressively getting closer to you, in an eerily slow manner. The closer the light got, the dimmer and blurred your vision became and the weaker your body felt ( like the feeling you have before throwing up kind of weak ). As the diamond shaped light hung over you and you closed your eyes, there was the faint sound of a flatline..... it was yours..... ) 3:40 - ( still thinking for this one )

It’s so relaxing to see these images, they transport me into another dimension or era where I’ve been already , they’re familiar to me and bring me back some nostalgia probably because of malls in the early 2000’s

3:40 I'VE LITERALLY BEEN IN THAT EXACT LOCATION IN A DREAM BEFORE

Boards of Canada are my favorite band because of how accurately they’re music can represent my dreams and how they’re music can make me feel like I’m in a place I’ve never been before. Overall, they make perfect music for these types of videos.

0:00 Wh- Again, seriously? 0:20 That noise... it hurts. 0:40 I always hated swimming. 1:00 Oh yeah, this house. 1:20 Grandma’s hospital? 1:40 Why the hell am I in an IKEA? 2:00 What. Is. Going. On. 2:20 Algae is off the hook. 2:40 A kitchen... I think. 3:00 (I can’t see...) 3:20 A voice... “I love”? 3:40 What is this place? 4:00 *THIS PLACE IS NOT SAFE*

2:20 Shrek just vibin in the water

0:40 looks like a cgi cutscene in a PS1 RPG

1:00 is actually satisfying

2:40 I GOT OPERATED IN THIS ROOM!! I REMEMBER THE ANESTHESIA SMELLED LIKE STRAWBERRIES AND I TOLD THE DOCTOR I DIDNT LIKE STRAWBERRIES JTSFJADJS

Yo float, your the best. Keep doing this type of videos, i love them

3:00 scared the shit out of me i swear it feels like you wake up in the middle of the night when you're a child and you sleep next to your baby sibling facial recognition is heightened in the dark and everything looks like an uncanny monster

0:20 looks like hotel room but empty

KZfaq suggested this as a thing to cast on my parent's tv and honestly, I've never been more tempted

It feels like if I take my eyes off of them Im going to notice people standing there looking at the camera and its both the worst and BEST feeling ever

3:00 I HATE THIS PHOTO

Good god, 0:40 looks like something out of my own dreams

the picture at 3:00 reminds me a lot of memories like for example it reminds me last night when I went to bed and turned off the light

1:45 the ikea ball pit you make a friend you never see again

2:01 Is no one going to discuss the eye with “UH OH!” surrounding it?

1:42 Whait thats the playground at my Ikea

1:44 surprised i didn't see jenova's headless corpse

i feel like there should be a series about a normal rational family moves in to a town with this stuff in it, with their house being the only normal thing there

1:40 wait, I might have been there when I was 6, also, i think I saw something like that in a dream, can you please tell me where u got this pic from ?

this is like when reality bugs and its trippy

The fact that this hits closer to home because these pictures are trying to trigger childhood memories, and I dont have anything other than childhood memories

I've seen "nightmare fuel" overused and not applicable to things, but this truly is nightmare fuel. This dude has a serious talent for horror.

1:44 I see a shoe on the other side.

oh there you go making my childhood hit like a truck again-

0:40 just feels weird to me, like I shouldn't be there

3:41 bro this looks like if the school bathroom was leading to a empty hallway
