Level 258 resembles that of a movie theater, that is surprisingly clean given the circumstances and properties of this level. The level has multiple areas that you would normally find in a movie theater. The concession area consists of a center concession stand, a small corridor leading to the auditoriums, a room with multiple arcade games in it, and movie posters hanged along the walls. The concession stand is a great place for food and resources, its recommended to buy something else while buying a ticket before venturing out. These resources can be bought with the tokens that can be won by playing any arcade machine within the arcade. The hallways that the auditoriums are on seem to stretch out for infinity and are set in alphabetical order. Purchasing a ticket for a movie at the concession stand will cause the appropriate auditorium to appear first when entering the hallway. It’s speculated that the corridor heading into the hallway reads the ticket and moves the said movie to be the first one spotted, but if two people enter at the same time with different tickets, the corridor will only read the ticket of the last person out. Within the hallways, bottles of almond water are usually littered within the hallway. Trashcans can usually be spotted ever half a mile and are usually a good source of almond water and can sometimes have tiny, blue starfishes inside it.
The Azure Starfish are an entity native to this level. With their hive located in an auditorium named the “Star Crossed”. The Star Crossed mimics that of the inside of a beehive. Along with the starfishes, Facelings dressed as movie theater workers are also seen in this level; with their clothing representing what occupation they play; The ones document are Security Officers, Janitors, and Concession workers. On rare occasions, Smilers and even Partygoers can be spotted on this level, but thanks to the joint effort of the colonies on this level, their presences are pretty much non-existent.
