Liminal spaces are the subject of an Internet aesthetic portraying empty or abandoned places that appear eerie, forlorn, and often surreal. Liminal spaces are commonly places of transition (pertaining to the concept of liminality) or of nostalgic appeal.

Just go find a closed down mall in your area and wander through it. Creepy af.
For safety, dress in dirty old sweats and be clearly tripping balls and no one will think you have money.
Yep! This is GOLD!
That's one way to describe the yellowing...
So impressed you had wifi service in the Backrooms. Get out man!
This one is my favourite.
The office floor turned warehouse is making me extremely uncomfortable for some reason. I wanna say it's not fire-code-safe to be in, but I'm not sure that's it.
very - verrrrry impressive pictures. wow :o
I’m very impressed with the slight curvature to the floor tile
I don't understand stuff like this. If it is abandoned why is the light on? Who is paying for the electricity, and why?
There’s a fast food restaurant near us that’s been closed for a few years now due to the company going bankrupt. The lights are still on.
That's a lot of bottled water.... Wonder if it'd be still safe to drink; looks like they're mostly plastic bottles and depending on how long they've been sitting I doubt it.
The plastics expire sadly.
Maybe it's almond water ^^
There were all kinds of water.
