They still don’t look real to me after knowing they are.

Looks like it could be the same place. Not saying they are but they look so similar.

Wasn't this used in one of the scenes in the Fallout TV series?

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 2 points 1 day ago

Used in a Mission Impossible movie too.

Honestly, it might have been used as one of their locations. I recognize this house.

More like Specs Ops: The Line, if you ask me.

There's a classic horror novel called The Elementals by Michael McDowell which features a house which is being slowly consumed by sand dunes. This makes me want to reread it.

Pulls out guitar and starts strumming "See ya later, raider. Back down there in Speranza. Gonna share your mom's lasagna."

The rent is very reasonable but the cleaning fee is outrageous.

I have watched so many YouTube videos on the skeleton coast. Fascinating area of the world.

Is this your original content?

[–] Mustachius_Grumpius@thelemmy.club 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

None of my content is original, is just for entertainment

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

No worries, I was just asking for Best of Lemmy content.

Looks like it would be a photo in a Backrooms Wiki level

[–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Reminds me of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in the house by the beach in his dreams.
