Level 162 is the 163rd level of the Backrooms.
Contents
Description
Level 162 is a hallway that goes on for between 500-1500 miles. It resembles a hotel hallway, but the numbers go up by one every room. There are doors on both sides of the hallway and most are empty. There are windows inside the rooms, but if you look through one, remember that it is an illusion. If you try to open the window, you will be sucked into a void and almost certainly die. However, there is a 1 in 1,382 chance you can end up in Level 999. Sometimes, doors can lead to different levels in the Backrooms. Level 162 is one of the most insanity-inducing rooms throughout the entire Backrooms. Be careful when wandering around, for it can deceive you.
Images
Only two people have ever reported entering Level 162, and there is currently only 1 picture, recovered in Level 5.
The picture recovered from Level 5. This is most likely a lounge area outside of a room on Floor 2. The date of this picture was dated around 2010, and the fate of the photographer is unknown. There were three notes by the photographer (listed later in the article).
Entities
There are no known entities on this level, although it is assumed that there almost indefinitely is.
Floors
There are 5 floors of Level 162, each becoming more strange and distorted. Be sure to have plenty of Almond Water and be prepared to most likely go insane.
Floor 1
The only floor with doors that lead to other Levels (apart from Floor 5). Going into room 214 will take you to Level 11. There is only one door that will transport you to Level 0, and it is reported that it is Room 14349, but this is unconfirmed.
Floor 2
This is where the photograph was taken, and the only floor that we know for sure looks like. Room 42896 will have a cooler full of almond water, and a TV that only plays "The Santa Clause", as noted by the photographer. He writes, "I don't know what is scarier: The fact that this place has a TV, or that it's playing a Christmas movie.
Floor 3
Almost nothing is known from Floor 3. There is one theory that Room 4702847 will transport you to Level 27.
Floor 4
The second notation from the photographer reads, "The doors are glitched. They teleport you to other doors on Floor 4. Also, there are scratching sounds coming from in the walls. I don't know if they are entities or something worse.
Floor 5
On the 5th and final floor of the Hotel and Level 162, there is almost no light. There is one last notation from the photographer.
"No light. I can't even tell if I'm writing this correctly. But Room Infinity will, I hope, take you back to the moment you entered the Backrooms. But I can't believe I made it this far. The room beside it will transport you to Level 5. I'm throwing this camera in here to give hope."
Many assume the photographer exited the backrooms. The camera was discovered in Level 5, so the most popular theory is he ran out of room and left the Backrooms.
Colonies and Outposts
There are not known colonies or outposts on this level.
Entrances And Exits
Entrances
- It is extremely difficult to reach Level 162 by going through and Level 161. The best way is to find a door in Level 11 that will lead one to Room 214 of Level 162. There is also a very small chance that going through a wall in Level -1 can lead one to Level 162.
- There is also a small chance one may end up in the 5th floor of Level 162 by jumping into the void after repenting in Level 999.
One person has tripped through a rock and landed here.
Exits
- There are many ways to exit Level 162. Going through room 214 will transport one to Level 11. Going into room 781 will reportedly transport one to Level 741.
- Going into Room 69 will transport you to Level 69, triggering the "New Arrivals" event.
- Going into Room 9999 will transport you to Level 5, but getting to the 5th Floor is nearly impossible, as most people go insane.
- Going into Room Infinity will transport one to the spot where they first entered the Backrooms, and a very rare exit into Reality.
- Swallowing a brass button on this level will transport you to Level 85.
- The only other way to exit Level 162 is jumping through a window inside a room and maybe ending up in Level 999. There is a 10% chance that going into Room Infinity will transport you to The Hub instead of Reality.
