Level 357: "The Abomination"
Level 357 is the 358th level of the Backrooms.
Description
Level 357 is a very old abandoned mansion, located inside a very dark forest. The forest is about 100 million miles long, but however it is impossible to go in any other areas of the level, since its basically an "Out of Bounds" area and going through them may lead to consequences. The light sources in this level are low and may not help in improving your vision, so its recommended to use one of the night vision cameras you find in the start of the level. There's no colonies that actually live here, since this level can be VERY dangerous at certain events that happen over-time. There's no Almond Water in this level, same with Food, Supplies and Weapons. However, in some rare cases, you will start hearing voices in your head and start hallucinating. Hunger in this level will increase every 5 minutes, since you're forced to explore without any food source. The weather in this level is never ending rain and thunder, as you may encounter dead plants.

The second you enter this level, you will start hearing strange crickets coming from the forest and a very quiet ambience will play in the background. The day/night cycle in this level is disabled, so you might feel like you've been in here for hours, but you've been actually exploring for 10 minutes. Staying in this level is not a good idea, as you will become more paranoid over time and think something is watching you through the dark.
This level also has the ability to cause you to be very claustrophobic, since you never know what could be in the darkness or what's watching you from the distance. Not only does it cause you to be claustrophobic, but it has a rare chance of making you feel Achluophobic and Autophobic, which means you're scared of the darkness AND being alone. The more scared you become, the more you become insane and start thinking there's no escape out of here.
