I did not understand it, so I left it unrated. Is there some sort of cultural reference that I'm not getting?
Is it ok for me to import this to the fandom wiki?
+1 btw. Rly good, lore is cool, and Barnaby is spoopy in a good way 👻
Sorry for the late reply, yeah you can just let me know when you do.
Just ported this version to the fandom: https://backrooms.fandom.com/wiki/Barnaby_Bun’s_Fun_Emporium
There are two main things in this article; one is the short level, and the other is the preface, which seems so detached from the rest of the article that I'd swear it belonged to a different one.
Based on the preface, I expected this to be a long read, and worthy of the Enigmatic status, but the level that follows is just… Not the same thing I was promised?
"The presence of this level has brought forth a plethora of theories of the Backrooms' relation to the concepts of Heaven and Hell."
No such themes are present in this article, except maybe in the last collapsible, which is so barebones it barely hints at it.
"The evidence to suggest this is due to the nature of the entity and items found that suggest demonic rituals and similar activity."
This claim is simply false.
The list of items is never elaborated, nor interesting enough to have a reason to be mentioned, especially when there's a disclaimer about not eating anything from the level immediately after.
The last collapsible could use some explanation, as the one we're given is literally "Administrative Access Key", and then what seems like a snippet of actual lore is dropped.
The fact it has no context means there's nothing to point to the fact it's probably something we're not told what it is, be it audio recordings, textual documents or whatnot) by Barnarby, but there's nothing concrete to tell me this.

My thoughts are quite similar. There is a lot of potential here for this to be an interesting level, but it seems to be having an identity crisis. The first thing we see is a poster of a missing child, Hauss Danager, but we are then told nothing more about who this is, nothing at all. Maybe some of the dialog in the Admin Access section is in relation to him, but the reader is only left to make assumptions.
The most interesting part is its status as an integral class, but not much about this is explained or alluded to either, as MarshallThings pointed out. I would like to know where the theories about heaven and hell that stem from this level are derived from. Instead, we have what's essentially a FNAF level. That's fine, some people are into that. I just think it should pick a lane and either commit to being what it really seems to be, or expand on the threads it starts and leaves unresolved.
My $0.02.
Sweet is the hour when the world lays to rest.
former enigmatic level with an identity issue.
