Description

A photo of the top of Level 981, with a Sign reading "You are not safe".

Level 981 is a long, steep floor made of a yellowish-white tiles you could expect to find in a kitchen or bathroom. There is a black painted line down the middle of it, for an unknown reason. There is a set of grey double doors which one can enter and exit the level from at the top of it. One cannot find intersections here, ever. The walls are made out of yellow-painted concrete, In this level, artificial light sources like flashlights do not function, however, this is fine as the level is filled with light without a known source. The ceiling of the level is made out of the same concrete as the walls, and painted the same, too. Sometimes, you can find glass windows here which might look like they are looking out on the outside world, but they do not. Upon breaking the glass, the view outside disappears and is replaced with an unnerving jet-black hole. It is said that this leads to the Void, however this really isn't worth testing. There isn't anything to be found in this level, other than the occasional bottle of Almond Water placed into an indent in a wall, so entering this level is quite pointless.

This level is home to an entity species called "Signs". Unlike most other entities of the Backrooms, these entities cannot harm you and seem to try to warn wanderers that going into this level is really not worth it. Signs take many different appearance, but always look like an actual sign of some kind. They range from being simple wooden planks with the words written on in ink with poor handwriting, to neon signs you might find in a takeout, to screens with the text written clearly in a computer font. The Signs always have messages on them that attempt to warn Wanderers of dangers in the level but most of the time end up seeming threatening rather than helpful. The messages are usually something like "You are not safe" "Turn back" "Watch your back" or "There's nothing for you here". If one tries to break a Sign, the Sign will simply not and instead deflect whatever was used to try to break it. Hounds are sometimes found here, and because of how steep this level is they are very dangerous here.

This level gets steeper as it goes on, so if you find yourself here it is advised you simply don't go downward at all and walk to the door behind you to exit the level.
