A liminal space in Konoha, the Hidden Leaf Village, exactly as seen in Naruto. The familiar wooden buildings with curved, tiled rooftops line the stone-paved streets. Red banners with the village symbol sway gently in the breeze. The massive Hokage Monument stands in the background, overlooking the quiet village.
The streets are completely empty—no villagers, no ninja, no movement. The ramen shop, the market stalls, and the training grounds remain untouched, as if frozen in time. Lanterns cast a warm glow, but there is no sound, no footsteps, only an eerie stillness. The village feels familiar yet strangely distant, as if Konoha exists in a dream, suspended between past and present.

A liminal space inside an empty high school, where the air is thick with an eerie stillness. The fluorescent lights buzz faintly, casting a cold, artificial glow onto the polished linoleum floors. Rows of gray metal lockers stretch endlessly down the hallway, their doors covered in faint scratches and the remnants of long-faded stickers. The smell of old textbooks, industrial cleaning supplies, and distant rain lingers in the air.
The classroom doors are shut, their small windows revealing nothing but darkness. A lonely bulletin board by the principal’s office displays outdated announcements, faded student council posters, and a forgotten flyer for a dance that happened long ago. The cafeteria, visible through an open doorway, is empty—rows of plastic chairs neatly stacked, the serving area abandoned, the faint scent of reheated food still clinging to the air.
A single clock above the lockers ticks softly, though the time no longer seems to matter. Somewhere in the distance, the sound of a dripping faucet echoes through the silence. The school is frozen in time, suspended in an endless after-hours void—familiar, yet unsettling. You’ve been here before, or maybe only in a dream. Either way, you know one thing for sure: you’re alone here.

A deserted cemetery at night, shrouded in dense fog. The crooked tombstones are half-buried in the overgrown grass, and the cold wind carries a faint whisper, though no one is there. A dim streetlamp flickers in the distance, its light failing to reach the deeper parts of the graveyard.
In the blackest corner between the graves, something watches.
At first, it's just a void—a patch of darkness deeper than the night itself. But then, two pale, sunken eyes emerge from the shadows, lifeless yet locked onto yours. Below them, the faint outline of a mouth appears—not a grin, not human, but stretched unnaturally, as if the skin barely clings to something skeletal beneath.
It does not move. It does not breathe.
Yet you feel it. Staring. Waiting.
And in the silence, you realize—it sees you, even when you can’t see it.

A liminal space of a deserted gas station at night, evoking a strange sense of familiarity, as if you’ve been here before. The fluorescent lights buzz softly, casting a pale, flickering glow onto the cracked pavement. The neon signs, slightly faded and humming with static energy, advertise long-forgotten brands, their colors bleeding into the darkness.
The station is completely empty—no cars, no attendants, just the distant hum of the night. A single soda vending machine stands against the wall, its dimly lit buttons reflecting off the glass windows of the convenience store, which appears stocked yet abandoned. The old payphone by the entrance hangs slightly off the hook, swaying gently in the night breeze. The air is thick with nostalgia, carrying the faint scent of gasoline and asphalt warmed by the lingering heat of the day.
The world beyond the gas station fades into an endless void of empty highways and distant streetlights. No matter where you came from, or where you’re going, this place feels like a stop you’ve made before—a location between destinations, frozen in time, waiting.

A liminal space inside Peach’s Castle from Super Mario 64. The grand hall is vast and empty, the walls adorned with faded tapestries and statues that seem to stare blankly into space. The floors are cold, the sound of footsteps echoing unnervingly through the stillness. The once vibrant and lively space feels abandoned, with no people, no sounds, and only the weight of silence hanging in the air. The grand staircase leads up into darkness, and the sense of solitude is overwhelming, as if time has stopped and the castle itself is forgotten.

A liminal space in Sunagakure, the Hidden Sand Village, exactly as seen in Naruto. Endless dunes stretch beyond the village walls, their golden grains shifting subtly in the dry wind. The clay and sandstone buildings, shaped by time and erosion, stand tall against the arid landscape. The Kazekage’s dome-shaped tower rises in the distance, its curved architecture blending seamlessly with the desert environment.
The village is completely empty—no shinobi, no traders, no sound except for the occasional gust of wind stirring the sand. The wooden walkways and bridges remain untouched, their planks sun-bleached and weathered. The heat distorts the horizon, making the streets feel strangely endless, as if the village could stretch on forever. Sunagakure feels suspended in time, a place of stillness and solitude, waiting beneath the relentless sun.

A liminal space inside a nearly pitch-dark supermarket, its long aisles stretching into an eerie, endless void. The dim, flickering overhead lights barely illuminate the cold tile floor, casting elongated shadows that shift unnaturally. The shelves are still stocked, but something feels off—products are misaligned, some labels are faded as if they’ve been here for decades. The soft hum of the refrigeration units is the only sound, blending with the distant crackle of an old speaker playing a distorted, barely-audible supermarket jingle.
Then, in the background, something is there. Watching. Waiting.
Between the aisles, beyond the last flickering light, stands a tall, shadowy figure. Slenderman. Motionless. His featureless face is barely visible through the darkness, yet you feel his gaze pressing down on you. His unnaturally long limbs seem to stretch with each blink, shifting, closing the distance ever so slightly whenever you look away. The atmosphere is suffocating—something is wrong, but you can’t leave.
The automatic doors stand still, locked in place. The checkouts are empty, yet the scanner beeps randomly, as if something unseen is purchasing items in the void. Your pulse quickens. The fluorescent lights buzz louder. The air grows heavier.
You shouldn’t be here.
But now… he knows you are.

A liminal space inside an abandoned train car, dimly illuminated by flickering overhead lights. The seats, covered in old, worn-out fabric, are eerily empty. The air is thick with the stale scent of dust, metal, and something faintly rotting, though you see nothing. The windows reveal nothing but an endless void—no landscape, no stations, just blackness stretching forever.
The train hums along the tracks, yet there is no conductor, no passengers—just you.
At first, it seems like you’re alone. But then, in the reflection of the window, something shifts. A silhouette, barely noticeable in the dim light, hunched in the farthest corner of the train car. Its form is wrong, too thin, too elongated, as if its body was never meant to exist here.
It is motionless. Watching. Waiting.
You tell yourself it’s a trick of the light, but deep down, you know the truth. Now that you’ve seen it, now that you’ve acknowledged its presence, it won’t let you go.
The lights flicker again.
It’s closer.

A liminal space inside the lobby of an empty movie theater, frozen in time. The dim neon lights cast a soft, buzzing glow over the faded red carpet, patterned with geometric designs worn down by decades of footsteps. The scent of stale popcorn and artificial butter lingers in the air, mixing with the faint hum of the soda machines, still running despite the absence of customers.
Rows of vacant ticket kiosks stand silent, their glass windows reflecting the flickering glow of the old marquee above. The concession stand, once bustling with life, is now eerily still—popcorn bags stacked neatly, soda dispensers blinking idly, a lone cash register left slightly open. Cardboard cutouts of long-past movie releases stand in the corners, their smiling faces and bold taglines frozen in a moment that no longer exists.
A hallway leading to the darkened auditoriums looms in the distance, its entrance swallowed in shadow. The only sound is the distant crackle of an unattended speaker, playing the looping jingle of the theater chain’s advertisement. This place feels like a memory you can’t place, an in-between moment where time has stalled—an echo of countless nights spent here, but now, you're alone.

A liminal space within the Great Deku Tree from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time—a hollow, ancient being frozen in time. The vast wooden chamber stretches endlessly upward, its twisted roots forming an intricate web of passageways and platforms. The air is heavy with the scent of damp moss and aged bark, as if the tree itself is breathing in slow, silent intervals.
Faint golden light filters through cracks in the wood, casting long, wavering shadows. Floating dust particles dance in the still air, their movement unsettlingly slow. The corridors formed by the tree’s interior twist and spiral unnaturally, leading into deeper, darker hollows.
A soft, eerie hum resonates through the empty space, neither natural nor mechanical. The atmosphere is neither welcoming nor hostile—just endlessly quiet, as if something was once here but has long since faded away. Though the tree is hollow, the feeling of being watched lingers, its presence unseen yet undeniable. The Arbre Mojo is alive, but no longer awake—a forgotten sanctuary, lost between worlds.

A liminal space within the Belly of Jabu-Jabu from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time—a vast, organic cavern suspended between the living and the inanimate. The fleshy walls pulse faintly, their slick, wet surfaces illuminated by an eerie bioluminescent glow. The air is thick and humid, filled with the distant, rhythmic sound of something deep within, breathing.
A translucent, membranous floor stretches ahead, shifting slightly underfoot, as if the temple itself is aware of your presence. Veins of glowing blue and red branch across the walls, pulsating in a slow, hypnotic rhythm. The corridors curve unnaturally, leading into deeper chambers where echoes distort, making it unclear if the sound is coming from ahead or behind.
A strange silence lingers, not of emptiness, but of something waiting. Though no creatures stir, the feeling of being inside something vast and alive is undeniable. The space feels endless yet claustrophobic, an otherworldly sanctuary neither hostile nor safe. Here, in this forgotten, organic labyrinth, time and reality feel distant—as if swallowed by something greater than oneself.

A liminal space inside Peach’s Castle from Super Mario 64. The large, open entry hall with its checkered floors is silent and still, the bright, colorful walls now faded and worn. The grand staircase, flanked by golden banisters, leads upwards, but the steps feel far too distant, as if the upper floors are unreachable. The tall, arched windows cast long shadows, and the once vibrant paintings on the walls seem to hang lifelessly, their subjects distant and indifferent.
The air is thick and quiet, and the usual echo of footsteps now feels unnaturally loud in the emptiness. The corridors stretch out, but their paths seem endless, as if the space is larger than it should be, with no sense of direction or purpose. The familiar and welcoming atmosphere of the castle now feels abandoned, as if it’s suspended in time, creating an overwhelming sense of solitude and unease. The stillness is oppressive, and it’s impossible to shake the feeling of being alone in an empty, forgotten place.

A liminal space in the Forest of Death, as seen in Naruto. The dense, overgrown trees are twisted and gnarled, their thick branches reaching out like fingers in the dim light. A dense mist hangs in the air, partially obscuring the thick vegetation and the dark shadows that stretch across the ground. The ground is muddy and uneven, with large pools of stagnant water reflecting the eerie stillness.
The forest is completely empty—no sounds of animals, no movement, only the oppressive silence and the occasional rustle of leaves. The once vibrant environment now feels still and abandoned, as if time itself has paused here. The ominous atmosphere of the Forest of Death is heightened by the absence of life, leaving behind only the shadowy, dangerous landscape. The trees form tight, oppressive walls, as if trapping anyone who dares to enter in a world of quiet, suffocating isolation.

A liminal space within Orgrimmar from World of Warcraft. The grand gates of the city stand open, but the usual bustle of life is eerily absent. The towering stone walls loom high above, casting long, unnatural shadows over the empty streets. The iconic torches lining the roads flicker, but no sounds of movement or conversation echo through the once lively market.
The buildings, made of dark stone and rough wood, seem to close in on the empty pathways, their windows dark, their doorways abandoned. The air feels thick and still, as if the entire city is holding its breath, suspended in time. The wind stirs the banners but does little else, leaving the city feeling unnaturally quiet. The usually vibrant and chaotic heart of the Horde is now a ghost town, isolated and forgotten, creating a deep sense of solitude as you wander through its desolate streets.

$A liminal space within Ganon’s Tower from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time—a colossal fortress where time and reality feel fractured. The stone walls, blackened and cracked, pulse faintly with an eerie, reddish glow, as if something ancient and malevolent breathes within them. The vast halls stretch endlessly, their architecture impossibly twisted, leading into dark voids where the eye cannot pierce. A deep, low hum vibrates through the air, neither mechanical nor alive, an oppressive sound that never ceases. The flickering torches cast elongated, unnatural shadows, twisting unnervingly as if they move of their own will. The grand staircases ascend into darkness, the air thick with the scent of smoke, iron, and something older—something watching, waiting. Though the castle is abandoned, the presence of its master lingers in every corner. The throne room stands at the summit, shrouded in unnatural silence. The space between the walls feels too wide, too empty, yet suffocating. This is not just a fortress—it is a prison of power, a void where reality bends, a place that exists only to mark the end of all things.$

A liminal space within Stormwind from World of Warcraft. The grand gates of the city stand wide open, but the once bustling streets are eerily quiet. The majestic stone walls rise high, their intricate carvings and banners now faded and lifeless, casting long shadows across the empty city. The normally crowded marketplace is deserted, the cobblestone streets cold and silent, with only the distant rustle of flags in the breeze.
The towering buildings of Stormwind, with their high spires and detailed architecture, stand empty and still. The grand steps leading to the majestic keep are silent, the courtyard devoid of activity. The sounds of life that once filled the air are gone, replaced by an overwhelming silence that presses in from every direction. The city feels frozen in time, as if it has been abandoned, leaving only the cold stone and shadow behind. The familiar beauty of the city now seems strange and unsettling, amplifying the sense of solitude and unease.

A liminal space in Amegakure, the Hidden Rain Village, exactly as seen in Naruto. Towering metal buildings rise into the misty sky, their surfaces slick with constant rainfall. The narrow streets are lined with pipes, walkways, and industrial structures, all soaked in a never-ending drizzle. Neon lights flicker faintly, reflecting in the puddles that cover the ground.
The village is completely empty—no people, no movement, only the sound of raindrops echoing through the deserted alleys. The metal bridges connecting the high-rise structures stretch into the distance, disappearing into the fog. The air is thick with humidity, and the usual bustling presence of shinobi is gone. The city feels suspended in time, its mechanical heart still beating, but with no one left to witness it. The rain continues to fall, endlessly, over a village lost in solitude.
