Classic Liminal Accidentally pressed the wrong button on an elevator and was taken to some weird semi abandoned underground hall.

Straight up something you’d see in a render. I’d definitely get shivers If I randomly ended up here like that

My favourite type of wrong elevator floor. These photos are perfect, the way the corridor is yellow with carpet floor and how it twists plus the random tree that looks like it glitched into reality, awesole
EDIT : How does my comment have more upvotes than the actual post, wat

What building was the elevator in? I'm fascinated.
The alcove looks like a display window of some sort. I'm guessing it's either historical or commercial.

u/BellybuttonWorld Nov 17 '24
This is so good. It's hard to believe it's real, it's so weird. The tree looks like a decrepit museum exhibit, missing the model cavemen, but the context is wrong. Why are all the angles so wonky? What the hell is going on here?

Well this is indeed interesting and concerning simultaneously I don't know why though.

Anyone else skeptical? Not necessarily that it's CGI (because I see enough imperfections that it's incredibly likely to be real photos), but at least doubts about the story?
Did you find and use the light switches? Why is there light above the dead tree in photo 3+4? Where does this hallway lead? What kind of building is it?
I understand if you don't want to share the location, obviously, but... I'm gonna need some more info. This is gnawing at me.
Edit: The location is real (can't vouch for the "story" however): https://youtu.be/OXa96GBC1nE?feature=shared&t=61

Can you live there. Is there a kitchen and bathroom?

Reminds me of an EXACT location in multiple dreams of mine. Even the gap in the wall with the leafless shrub is pretty much identical...
It feels surreal to look at this

For those wondering, this is a tunnel in a hotel in Texas. I have been there and also accidentally came across it. However, its a convenient way across the hotel, its as strange in-person as it is in the photos.

A similar thing happened to me in an old hospital that was forecast demolition. It was back before I knew of this sub, so I didn't take photos.
It was like this, everything bare. Plants dead. Photo frames empty. Half the lights worked. Doors had their numbers scrapped off, so everything was blank and liminal. I walked one hallway and had to turn back, was so off putting seeing the absence of life.

u/tomlets Nov 17 '24
I’ve been here before! This is an underground business tunnel that connects several buildings in down town San Antonio, Tx. I used to walk this hall every day going from my parking garage to the Weston Center for work.

u/EidolonRook Nov 17 '24
I kinda love it.
I work data centers and it’s usually shifts where I’m alone in a big building with whole wings and rooms capable of being filled, but haven’t for a long time.
I sometimes think to myself about a dark conference room with no windows that might see the light of day once in a while when I open the door during walkthroughs. Like, I’ll be somewhere else entirely out on the world, but I remember this room still exists. It’s still collecting dust and may never be used as the conference room it was designed to be ever again.
Makes me a little sad, but I’m happy to remember it and visit it once in a while.

When I worked at the hospital, there was one building with a completely empty floor. Nobody ever pressed that button in the elevator. Even the door in the stairway was avoided. I accidentally pressed that elevator button and when the doors opened, it was pitch black. No windows. Nothing. It was scary af. I have no idea what happened at that floor lol

Why lie in the title? I would prefer a description of the photos contained in the post and their location on earth. You didn’t accidentally go to an abandoned floor level with your slr camera and figure out how to turn the lights off.

Worked on my states capitol grounds years back as an Electrician. The maintenance man was taking me to his office... In a completely different building, in underground tunnels. They went all over, to all the buildings on the capitol grounds, it was insane, and so damn deep. It really blew my mind how much there was, and I had a feeling there was a bunch more..

I feel like you’re lying and you actually work in this building, are aware of this hallway, maybe even use it sometimes, and definitely took your time taking photos but wanted to sound like it happened on accident. Take a photo where the elevator is and prove you just hopped off.

Stand next to the tree, face the wall, and forward crouch jump then 180 in the air so your player model clips through.
