Level 574 is the 575th level of The Backrooms
An image of one of the rooms
Level 574 or The Darkened School Grounds resembles a Level 0 layout with an infinite amount of space and walls with entrances that lead to new rooms. The walls are made from smooth concrete and the floors are made from a huge carpet. All the rooms resemble an abandoned classroom with chairs all over the place and no sign of life anywhere. The biggest difference is everything is near pitch black and all light sources brightness is reduced drastically. Staying here for long enough causes your sanity to drain quickly. Most people who stay here quickly turn into Insanities making this level inhabitable. There has been reports of hearing strange noises off in the distance described as "machinery mixed with screeching" the cause of this noise is still unknown.
Entities
Entities here are quite uncommon but the documented ones are Insanities Smilers and Skin Stealers. There is another entity known as the principal that is exclusive to this level. He is described as a greyish humanoid figure that roams Level 574 he is normally docile until you break one of his "rules" these rules are unknown. When asking him for them he will reply with "You should already know" the only known rule is no running near him. When breaking a rule he will turn aggressive and chase you down when he catches you he will send you to Level ! as your punishment.
