me: I'm a homebody i like to stay at home!

the home:

muddles my perception of time

Changes in both size and distance

lulls me into sense of safety and twist it into an oppressive paranoia inducing hellouse-scape

compels me to forget my own autonomous existence

waters down the outside and/ or exaggerate it to mythical extent

shrinks front door perron when i ascend, jarringly draws it out when i descend.

all its windows views are other walls of itself

the backyard fence looms in every horizon

bitter to abandonment of what belongs under its roof, including me when i go out to buy some good ol orange fanta

doesn’t look for me under its roof, it always knows where I'm.

when it sleeps doors never open, i don’t know it’s sleeping schedule

whatever happens silently around the corners is real, my apprehension is valid and understandable, and indeed i should panic.

my favourite incredibly niche horror subgenre is “what if a house made you afraid of existing”

Spatial horror isn't "I am in a scary place." So much as it's "The place I am in is scary"

This may seem like the most minor of differences but brother trust me when I tell ya this difference is everything.

#House of leaves #Anatomy game #myhouse.wad #skinamarink #the haunting of hill house #this house has people in it #the house in the ocean #Spatial Horror #liminal horror #Haunted Houses #i've been thinking a lot about this kind of horror #makes my brain go bzzzzzz

The developmental trauma to appreciator of "H O U S E"-themed horror pipeline.

#house of leaves #skinamarink #petscop #the house in the ocean #ironically the shit that happened to me wasn't even at home but I still grew up to have the Thing #hmm #(fyi it's just the kind of iatrogenic trauma that's unfortunately common in autistic folks)#(it's fine! it's chill! my adult life has actually been pretty awesome so I'm pretty unbothered these days)

THERE IS NO HOUSE IN THE OCEAN.

THERE IS ONLY THE HOUSE IN YOUR HEAD.

I'm sad how shockingly little it's mentioned in the general mythos community that the House is canonically named "Laura". I think that it's a little heartfelt detail that gets missed out on way too often.
