形成理论
碰撞理论 (Collision Theory)
现实世界(亦被称为前室,与后室相对)中的科学家认为宇宙中的冷斑 (CMB Cold Spot) 可能是由于平行宇宙间的碰撞所致,而后室的存在进一步证实了这一点——后室是和现实世界相碰撞的平行宇宙。几乎不可能进入或离开后室这一事实也许意味着不同宇宙之间不会碰撞而湮灭,而是在某种方式上融合的同时又难以实现交流。然而这也仅仅是个理论而已。几乎所有的其他解释都与之有所相悖,但这确实是一种可能。
政府理论 (Government Theory)
政府理论认为,后室是政府与地球上的实际当权者们为研究量子隧穿与量子遥传而发起的项目。后室的各层被建造在隔离区并严格保密。后室空间并不大,“后室很大”仅仅是那些误入的人的主观认知。后室中的各种实体是试验事故的产物,而他们也因此被放置在后室中并保持着食物和水的供给以观察他们会与人类进行何种交互。如果有人逃离,政府将有能力擦除其记忆,例如通过脑叶切除手术。
陷阱理论 (Trap Theory)
这个理论指出,后室是一系列的房间,旨在永远困住误入者让其无法回到现实世界。如果这是真的,就解释了为什么会有像 "虚空" 这样的存在将误入者困在其中,而从后室逃脱的人很少。
考尔论点 (The Kauer Thesis)
这一理论指出,后室是一种图帕 (Tulpa) :由于人们对它的信仰而带来对后室的认知。这一理论认为,由于人们对这一概念的信念不断增强,使得后室具象化。此外,这最终会使人产生密室真实存在的认知,具有产生悖论的可能。
梦境理论 (Dream Theory)
梦境理论认为后室经历是梦境,在梦中进入后室的人会一直处于昏迷状态,同其他被困在密室的人做着永无休止的噩梦。一小部分探索者相信密室是一场梦;他们认为能够在网络上发表经历的人已经从昏迷中醒来,但仍然一直在做着相同的噩梦。
集体无意识/理想主义理论 (Collective Unconscious/Idealism Theory)
根据著名精神学家卡尔-荣格的说法,人类存在 "集体无意识 (Collective Unconscious)" 的第三心理架构,在其中身为同一物种的我们普遍共享的一系列观念将会得到体现,而后室则是这些概念之一。我们都有着类似于临界空间 (Liminality/Liminal space) 的认知。后室只是对我们共同认知的临界空间的一种体现。实际上,人类只受他们所感知的世界的影响,所以当一个失去理智、进入昏迷状态或睡着的人感应到这种集体感知时,他们就会被吸入其中。在后室里的人通常不是在做梦,就是在经历错觉。
虚空论/宇宙学理论 (Void/Cosmology Theory)
从右边所示的图纸来看,后室是真实存在的又一空间。后室比我们的世界 "宽广 "许多,在多个维度上无限延伸。后室有无限的层级,理论上每个主层+亚层的组合都有着无限的空间。前室(即现实)在一个维度上是无限的,不可观测宇宙限制了我们探索的深度。后室亦有着类似的限制——极高的危险性以及无限的虚空——人类最多和探索最多的后室外缘的大多数地方都能通向它。Noclipping,或量子隧道路,允许人类瞬间通过无穷的距离到达内圈。内圈非常危险,许多量子隧道通向虚空,愈加增强的量子波动可能会把流浪者传送到”被删除的“层级,接近众神的家园。内缘部分的一个区域被称为 "天堂",是众神的居住地,也是少量灵魂死后的去处(大多数人不符合条件,去了地狱)。由于量子隧道很少直接通向后室的中部的缘故,那里大都未被开发。但有几条巨大的量子隧道,其中一条是关卡编号系统的基础,蜿蜒穿过后室中部,但由于大多数是无缝的Noclips,看起来就像一个人走得足够远或做了一个特定的任务后走进了一个新的关卡。有时,这些隧道会绕过一些区域,使人在其中旅行时感到奇怪,然而这些隧道永远不会将流浪者引向虚空。这导致一些人抵达后室中部,并在那里定居。在内部虚空中,有许多神祗。这些神灵负责管理实体,以及后室本身的大部分。神祗分为两个状态:"休眠 "和 "活跃"。活跃的神灵正值青年,积极创造"橄榄树"、层级和实体。他们不需要太多来维持生存。休眠的神灵比较年长,必须依靠摄入灵魂才能生存。这些神祗中的一些构想出他们的”现实“,这些“现实”侵染了后室并困住了凡人,以便他们靠此为生。休眠的神灵创造 "橄榄树 "将意识出租给各种生物,然后等待生物死亡后收集他们的灵魂为食。
分离现实理论 (Shattered Reality Theory)
分离现实理论由落入后室的科学家提出。该理论认为后室随着大爆炸起就作为与现实分隔而开的另一宇宙存在着。理论指出,后室是一个与我们的宇宙相关的宇宙。它曾经是一个完全不同的宇宙,有着独立的法则,但在现实世界中数十亿人类每天24小时的想象力的作用下,后室与现实世界越来越相似,直到如今与现实世界融为一体。这一理论的支持者表示,在《终结者》中发现的仿真现实程序是一个类似的失败版本,它试图创造一个与现实世界一模一样的新现实,但由于混沌理论,总是失败。
虚构理论 (Virtual Theory)
虚构理论认为后室是一个虚拟的模拟程序,而我们已经在不知情的情况下被植入其中。该理论还提出,最初的后室本计划作为一个平和的虚拟乌托邦,在那里人类和其他奇异生物能够和谐共存。但后来程序异常崩坏,后室完全显现出来,生成了无尽的层级。仅有一些小型据点相信该理论。
维度层积理论 (Stacked Dimensions Theory)
该理论认为后室并不是一个单独的维度,而是一个具有相同参数的等价维度的集合,而我们所说的“层 (Levels)”就是这些等价维度。例如,0层浮在虚空中;时有时无的传送门使得我们能够从一层看到另一层。所谓的“窗户”实际上是通向其他维度的传送门,后室中的实体得以在这些维度中穿梭。
地狱理论 (Hell Theory)
有宗教信仰的人们相当推崇这里理论。他们相信后室本身就是地狱,在那里未被救赎的灵魂们饱受了无尽的折磨。在地狱理论中,Noclipping被视为是一种罪行(也就解释了为何noclipping最终使你进入后室),“层 (Levels)”则是用于为进入其中的灵魂施加无尽的折磨。他们还相信在后室中“死去”的人并未真正失去生命,而仅仅是去了其他层被继续折磨。
现实虫洞理论 (The Hole in Reality Theory)
该理论由一位名叫亚历克斯 · 卡德克斯的人提出。他认为后室是现实中的一个穿孔,起着类似黑洞的作用,将周围的一切吸入其中扩充自己。这在很大程度上解释了Level Primal的存在——通向地球的入口将史前生物收入囊中。这也意味着Level Primal很可能是最初被”创造“的层级。这些入口很可能仍在地球上的某处存在着,或许在太空中的几率最大。
其他理论
The Level Numbering Theory
该理论尝试解释为何楼层的层数与该层的特征有关。这里是有关后室楼层标序的文章,可以看出其中有迹可循。在n
This theory attempts to explain what level numbers have to do with level properties. There is a whole page about level numbering, so this is a summarized version. There is a border between Reality and the Backrooms called the Reality Shift. The level number is the distance between the center of the level and the Reality Shift, which is measured through gravitational anomalies.
The Window Theory
From many investigations, we have found that the Backrooms may have windows. In the color corrected image of the Backrooms, some blueish tints on some walls are visible, along with bright lighting that can't be caused by the fluorescent lights. With this, we introduce you to the window theory. Following are constructed images displaying this theory
The Cameraman Theory
This theory attempts to answer the origin of most of the Backrooms level images. The existence of this entity is theorized due to it being unreasonable that Wanderers could capture such high-quality images of the Backrooms, especially images of dangerous or even impossible-to-reach levels. The physical form of this entity is unknown, and it could be thought that it lacks a physical form altogether; what is known is that it captures images of levels often instantaneously after their addition to the database, and that it travels through levels by unknown means.
"The One"
There is a theory that there will one day be a "Lucid", someone who noclipped into the Backrooms while dreaming, who will have the ability to noclip on command between levels, possibly even outside of the Backrooms. The One is believed to be the answer to truly escaping the Backrooms.
Entity Theory
This theory suggests that the entities of the Backrooms originated from their own planes of realities. This suggests that the human reality is not the only one affected by the Backrooms, but one of many. As an idea, entities may have been carrying viruses or pathogens from other realities, ones that could affect others from separate realities differently.
Him Theory
The Him theory is a theory that states that a divine entity, referred to as Him in modern writings/conversation due to the original language He was written in was unknown.
The text, from approximately 950-1000 years ago, reads:
"These corridors, elaborate lengths. These places of strange creatures and knowledge. These places of horrid nature yet fascinating, comes from んノᄊ who came from There. He who created this world for His purposes and to eat, who is of the greatest respect, frighteningly."
Carpet Fluid Theory
The Carpet Fluid Theory is a theory formed by colonies across the positive integer levels. According to them, "Carpet Fluid" is a chemical compound that when touched or smelled, can cause insanity reducing effects, as well as random feelings of disorientation, anger, or fear (The severity of which depends on the quantity of the liquid in the area). The substance was named "Carpet Fluid" due to the fact that it soaks the carpeted floors in Level 0. The substance, as the name suggests, smells strongly of old moist carpet. The substance can be found on many other levels. (Listed below)
- Level 0 - The substance that dampens the carpet.
- Level 1 - Can be found in some of the puddles formed by the fog.
- Level 2 - Can be found rarely in small pipes lining the ceiling.
- Level 3 - Can be found in small puddles on the walls, floor, and ceilings.
- Level 4 - Can be found leaking from small cracks in the ceiling or walls.
- Level 5 - Can be found in some machinery in the boiler room.
- Level 6 - Can be found heavily soaking most surfaces.
- Level 7 - Can be found spraying out of small hot springs on small, isolated islands.
- Level 8 - Can be found in some ores.
- Level 9 - Can be found falling from the sky in a similar way to rain in specific areas, as well as in the faucets in some houses
- Level 10 - Can be found mixed with dirt on the pathway, forming a mud like substance, but blended perfectly, and more like a paste then water.
- Level 11 - Can be found in fountains, vending machines, or any form of water transport or storage.
- Level 12 - Mixed with the lights, making it bright
- Level 13 - Can be found in everything that contains water (1%)
Level Reality Theory
A theory splinteting off of the True Level 0 Theory, the Level Reality Theory states that what we know as reality, or what we commonly refer to as "the frontrooms", is a level in itself. While lacking in much direct evidence, it is noted that we refer to Level 0 as Level 0, because it is the recognised as the beggining. But that is only to those that enter into Level 0. It is presumed that Level 0 is the "start" of the backrooms, but there is no way to prove it. If the Level Reality Theory is therefore true, it means that reality, or "the frontrooms", is just another level of the backrooms, and there are likely many levels "before" the frontrooms, with likely no beginning.
A seperate but related theory to the Level Reality Theory states that many legends of angels descending from the heavens may be proof that the frontrooms are not where humans originally related from, and instead descended from a higher level, and began to occupy the frontrooms due to its habitability.
