Level 519: Hardware Store
Description:
Level 519 is the 520th level of the Backrooms. It consists mainly of an IKEA-type hardware store containing drills and saws and other power tools. These rarely work, and a lot of the time the sounds just attract entities toward you. In other parts of the store you can find shops and cafés, as if you were in a mall. These shops do contain food, clothing and water, but they’re infested with an exclusive entity named “Patrons..?”, so it is highly advised not to enter these buildings. Sometimes, you can find a checkout and an exit door, but DO NOT BE FOOLED. The “receptionists” will try to stop you trying to knock you down and drag you back to where you started, even if you somehow started in the air. If you do manage to make it past the receptionists, DON’T GO THROUGH THAT DOOR. Very rarely it won’t send you to The Void, and if it doesn’t, it’s likely to send you either back to reality or between the Backrooms and the Midrooms. It’s not worth the chances, and there are only 1 documented case of that door actually sending someone back to reality:
LOG: 45 - DANIEL JACKSON
-Hey, I found this mall-type store and I was wandering around for a bit and I found this checkout place. There are some weird, stick like entities standing there and I’m too afraid to get close.
-What do they look like?
-They kind of look like receptionists, I’m gonna see if they let me through that door..
*radio drops*
*thump sound*
-Ok, they did NOT want me to go past them, but I wrestled them down.
-You don’t mind if I make this an article, do you?
-Oh, no it’s ok. Go ahead.
-There’s an exit door. I’m gonna go in.
-WAIT. This could be a trap! After all, it is the Backrooms!
-3… 2… 1…
*mic feedback sound*
*radio connecting*
-*muffling sound* OH mY GOD CouLd it ReallY BE? *heavy breathing and crying* AM I reALLY BACK?
-WHATS GOING ON HERE?
-I THink IM OUT OF THE BACKROOMS.
-No, that can’t be possible. Check your sanity.
-I feel fine! It must really be real!
-Oh my god… I’ll call you back, I have to report this to higher end staff.
