if you've seen at least 5 of these in your dreams, don't go to sleep

This makes me think of a few years ago, when I went on a lantern-making course. It was in a public hall, but the only bathrooms were down the corridor - the corridor that belonged to an abandoned old school. It was so creepy, with like boarded up locked doors down a long hallway, and broken chairs that hadn't been touched for years. I was freaked out XD

Claim your “here two years later ticket” 😂

Fun fact: *eyes* play a big role in dreamcore/weirdcore. Different objects as heads, wings, monsters, mushrooms Also play a big role as well.

I feel empty…
I’ve watched gloom grow for so long that I’ve grown with her, it feels wrong to know she’s not here
I’m watching every video I can find of yours I hope you feel better ❤️❤️❤️

I feel like watching Gloom go on and on about how these dark uninviting places really terrify her reminds me of when I’m talking about my fear of clowns. I know she’s talking about these places so familiar to us that seeing them empty puts us in a weird limbo, but seeing her describe how unsettling it is sounds like my rambling over how irrationally and weirdly clowns scare me. I hadn’t remembered my fear of clowns in 5 years until I watched the movie IT and it just left me in this unsettling feeling for even months after watching it. I’m still terrified of clowns 💃

i remember when i was at the hospital cuz i had a broken leg, the hallways looked a lot like the "empty hospital" and it scared me a lot that day, and i still feel very uneasy when i see hospital hallways.

I had a nightmare once, a long time ago, and it was exactly like some of these. Just like how Kassie described it, low quality, but vibrantly colored. AND it was at a restaurant's climbing toy thing

This video reminds me that your not afraid of being alone in the dark, but having something or someone with you that you dont know is there and can't see.

Sometimes, my nightmares start outside or deep inside an infinite, dark, forest at night. Outside there is a road and flower boxes, but once you enter I can not escape. When I am in the forest, I do impossible and strange problems, but there is always something about them that is so scary or unnerving. When I fail these problems sometimes I fall into darkness and see abstract shapes, colors, and people. I wake up feeling scared.

The one I can relate to the most was the empty play ground(s). It’s was Halloween night, and me and my family parked near this neighborhood in a playground’s parking lot. It was surrounded by trees and pitch black darkness. It was completely empty. Besides my family and me. Overall- I will never go to, (never want to) go anywhere where Im alone, where it’s dark, and where I feel like I should run, but I can’t run.

Loving glooms videos + being part of the weirdcore/dreamcore fandom community = this video being rlly cool

I love the empty feeling. Its like creepy but nice at the same time. Feels heavenly and possessed 🙂
it makes me feel free and nostalgic headless vibes 🐑

I love dreamcore/weirdcore stuff like liminal spaces and the idea that we all share the same memories and I’m so happy to see some of that content on my favorite channels keep it up gloom!

A few years ago, I was in a shopping centre and I was changing in one of the stalls. The lights suddenly went out and I got quite scared. There was only a few lights here and then. I didn't realise until a few minuets after that it was closed and I was there without anyone. I started freaking out and my anxiety kicked in. For like 2-3 hours I sat in a corner and just cried because I didn't know what to do (I was quite young). Finally one of the security guards found me and I kept crying because I thought I was going to go to prison but I explained and he was really kind about it. My phone had died so he called my parents for me and he is literally my saviour. I thought I was going to die. My mental health was really bad at the time and I felt traumatised for ages. Luckily my mental health got better a while after. I'm still not 100% but I'm so grateful for that security guard finding me.

9:06
This once happened to me, and it happened three times in a row in one night, it has horrible, I dunno why I kept waking up three times in a row, but all I know, I probably somehow got a nightmare. And I told my mom about it and she hugged me and said “I hope your okay.” I don’t know WHY about it felt so off and made me feel like a dream again when it is actually reality.

at 9:22 No friking way I HAVE THAT BLANKET

I honestly love the empty abandoned feeling. I remember being at school after closing and loved to wonder the halls, but I'm now a ghost hunter and urban explorer, so abandoned and haunted things are my jam.

As someone who has had school until 5pm in the early dark winter and had to wait for the bus afterwards, I'm used to dark school corridors and not going to lie, as soon as you're used to it, the creepiness sort of dissolves.

I love this! It's basically a whole aesthetic at this point called Abandonedcore, alot of time some are considered traumacore, I have so many of theese memories, and it's funny because that one old looking bedrooms looks EXACTLY Like the guest room my grandma had when she lived on an old lavender farm! I got actuall chills seeing it! The old Computer as well just AHHH! PLZ I would be on it for so long, talking with random people in some old anonomous chatroom site!!

I was never into any type of “core”.
But “weirdcore” got me super fascinated and interested!! I love it ngl.

I work at an doctor's office, and sometimes I have to briefly come in to my workplace on sundays or even at nighttime. Everytime I get so freaked out. It's soo weird seeing this place empty. I always have the feeling something bad is about to happen.. >.

I remember after my after school club it was the last club to leave school and there are no teachers, the office was empty, and there were these barricades blocking the hallways and me and my friends had to slide under them because they were so low and I was scared that I would be left behind and stuck in school and it was the same feeling as some of these pictures.

It's so great that people still watch gloom! I can't wait for her to be back

I honestly find places that are like that to be very nice and it makes me kinda happy because It’s almost like time has stopped

Kassie is one of those people who u just think about and she makes u smile. She’s amazing and makes everything so much better☺️

Ive been to multiple mental hospitals in my life, im 15 so I am still forced to be in the children ward. In January 2021, I was put in another ward but this one always looked creepy and unsettling, the only place that felt safe was the front desk but i wasn't allowed there. Even the people and the nurses felt off, i went multiple days without sleeping and i thought i was gonna go insane. Some of those images reminded me of the different rooms i saw there, they were all empty and freaky.

You see, I love weirdcore it gives me a comforting feeling even though it's representing fear and nostalgia

i love like the discomfort of dreamcore and weirdcore, idk why but i seek the discomfort of it like it comforts me with its discomfort

When a usually crowded place is now abandoned, that atmosphere in the air is called kenopsia.
And I love it. It makes me feel adventurous and free. I don't feel anxious at all

Maybe this is just me, but every time Kassie went off about how these certain things make her feel so alone, I'm sitting here wanting to go there. Like not the abandoned hospital, that's creepy no matter how you spin it. But like, an empty school, driving at night, empty swimming pool. Being in an empty school hallway makes me feel very serene and I just love the feeling of it. Driving at night, though I don't yet have my license (soon) I know I will adore because being alone in a dark place just makes me feel alive. Empty swimming pool, I WANT THAT. Just a whole swimming pool to myself, like please. I don't know, I've gotten super into swinging over quarantine, I can (and will) swing the entire day away and recently with it getting so dark so quick, it made me realize just how nice it is once it gets dark. Makes me really wanna go to the park at midnight with no light except the park's, no soul around 'cept mine. Seems so relaxing.
(Okay I got into it, tl;dr empty places at night are serene to me.)

That game is a peice of my childhood and I forgot about that game until I watched this video and saw that.
*thank you for making me remember an important part of my childhood*
Also it was the perfect reference to put there-

I love these types of things, idk why. I always loved extracurriculars, because the school felt empty, even though they weren’t. I also miss my childhood, so, so much. So, these naturally trigger this feeling of nostalgia, and almost a ptsd like feeling, even though I know that it’s not ptsd at all. I like these images, also cause they manage to unsettle me. I love these aesthetics.
Thank you for coming to my “Ted talk”

I'm born in 2012 but something seems offly familiar with these creepy disturbing weird core like photos. But the strange thing is I'm not from the 2000s nor am I American? But I usually remember my dreams mostly the start of them- and literally sometimes randomly I just look at something or it just pops up in my head like this dream I've had and I remember it even though it can be like 2 years ago 5 months ago and it really creeps me out.

On the topic of eerie pools, irl, my family and I went to some cabin in the mountains for a couple days. There was an indoor pool there, so we decided to check it out. The water was really green as compared to normal chlorine water and the walls/ceiling seemed extremely old. It was quite creepy in there especially because *whenever me and my brother would laugh, the sound would echo throughout the small room.* I didn’t think it was creepy at the time, but looking back at it, it perfectly fits the description of feeling like being stuck in limbo.

Who else hates and loves weirdcore bc it terrifys you for the rest of the day but you still freaking love it

This is the stuff for me I love anything weirdcore, dreamcore or traumacore. I also love liminal spaces especially abandoned funhouses.

I love listening to Kassie’s rants and her just going on and on about whatever is on her mind

Seeing the combination of these iconic places and the quality of the photos gives me a nostalgic feeling that makes me feel uneasy. Personally, I think that wandering a school campus after hours feels quite freeing.
I was also surprised at how vivid my memories of the hallways were. Seeing those photos of long, stretching hallways made me think of the doctors office, walking down the halls, sitting in the waiting room, playing with the bead mazes. I love it when Kassie makes nostalgia videos

Yes. I can definitely agree I
Hate These places. I always have the nicest dreams that turn into nightmares! I always shake and wake up and it drives me nuts!

I honestly think a lot of this is beautiful! once u know more about this stuff it seems really nice! unusual but lovely... dreamcore is more settling than weirdcore but their both nice to look at!

The examples he gave of dreamcore vs weirdcore gave a bit of the wrong idea, they're actually very similar even when you search them, in the end dreamcore is supposed to give this unsettling, dream like experience, almost nostalgic and weirdcore a unsettling experience, like something is very wrong, they often picture things like eyes, mouths or just hazy, nostalgic and directed at the reader phrases. Both end up being very similar because dreamcore turns into unsettling dreams or dreamy like spaces and weirdcore takes from those dreams to find unsettling elements.

After reading Rose Rivers, I felt just as you described at the start

Gloom describes the feeling of watching wierdcore so well tho

2:10 you can’t convince me this isn’t the bathroom at the cinema but at night.

I love talking about this topic. I really like dream core and wired core and I’m really happy that gloom talked about this

I was once in this parking lot in a really busy area of my city, but it was strangely empty. There was a staircase to get to ground level, and it was so echo-y and weird. The staircase felt like it was going on forever, but it didn't, obviously. Felt like I was in a horror movie. Really enjoyed the video! Interesting concept.

Weirdcore and dreamcore make me feel a rush of sudden happiness but also un comfortable

the begining is just her explaining how i feel without her. we all miss miss you kass ❤❤❤❤

I have autophobia and when I tell people that they usually don’t know what it is but I’m kind of impressed that Kassie knew what it is. (Around 9:12 is when she mentions it)

She’s acting so calm, and it makes me a little less scared. Thanks, Gloom!

I’ve had so many dreams of rooms tilting or flipping over and me falling. I also have a weird fear of looking upside down in a tall building and when I do it feels as if I am about to fall. I feel like those two things are connected

6:52 is it weird that I had this dream over and over again for a week?

I work night shifts often so isolation and empty rooms are just commonplace to me, so it’s interesting seeing how uneasy others get by it.
Whats also funny to me is that I see an empty place as a paradise. An empty building means I don’t have to worry about people. But for others is frightening.

When I was in high school, for cross country running practices in the morning when it was too cold outside, we would run in the hallways in our school with the lights off before school started. The hallways were so long, and it was scary and thrilling. It was weird being in such a familiar place. I could see the windows at the end of the dark hallways but not what was in the middle of the hallways. I lived in a small town so it was only like 15-20 of us running miles inside the school, and it was such a bizarre thing to experience.

been a fan of weirdcore stuff for a while, nice to see this

7:13
Me: Ooo another gloom video
Kassie: *Describes this dream*
*Me somehow remembering the exact same thing*

Can we all appreciate that she updates every day for us

Now, something I have learned about liminal spaces, is that you don’t know where you are, yet it is vaguely familiar when you look or glimpse at it. But when you start to imagine where you have seen it, it gets worse if you don’t know. I have seen many liminal spaces, and they all seem familiar, but if I remember what it looks like, I calm down and imagine the people I had seen, but, if I can’t remember, I start to panic because you can’t imagine the people being there, cause you don’t remember who you saw there or what the people there would have been like. Like when I saw a colorful area, it kinda looked like a doctors office I used to go to. So I imagined doctors and random people, even though I couldn’t see their faces, them being there helped me calm down. But I have seem vaguely familiar places and haven’t remembered where it looked like, where I’d seen it, or who was there. So I had troubles imagining the people, and couldn’t calm down cause I was alone, without signs of people.

AHHH YES I have not seen your videos in so long i've been to school and stuff and I have a new iPad because my other one just doesn't cut on and I really am super excited to see you

I like being on a drive with my parents or something, especially in a city or something. It feels calming :)

I think hearing Kassie’s emotions about these places killed it for me. I would start to feel one way and then she would make a grossed out sound and pulled me out of that feeling. I think if I looked at these clips myself in silence I would have felt more. If that makes sense

I love how Gloom’s last video was all fun and festive. Then she post this video with a very spooky vibe. I love it

I love Weirdcore/dreamcore/liminal spaces. They are my favorite Aesthetics!

I recently watched spirited away and that reference to the train scene was so accurate! it really is like a liminal space!

It's interesting seeing how unnerved people get by these images. There's definitely something creepy about a lot of them but only one or two felt familiar because I didn't quite live a normal life if that makes any sense. I don't feel like I've been to these places or can relate because I haven't and so I can't. I was born 2003 so the McDonald's is automatically off my list lol but also I never lived in the suburbs or been alone at school in the evening so everything is more so creepy in a horror movie way than in a relatable way.

That feeling leads to me thinking about life for some reason.

Whenever I see weirdcore I have panic attacks and a large feeling of discomfort. My mind goes foggy and everything feels surreal, but distant. Too distant. I feel sick and far too panicky.
Despite the very real emotions (no matter how distant) I keep coming back. I think that if I trigger these feelings often enough it might not affect me so much. This is month 5 of surrealism. It isn’t working.

I love this kind of stuff but WE MISS U GLOOM!

This video is perfect for me since I LOVE weirdcore 🥰

I’m completely obsessed with liminal spaces - there’s something about them that makes us ask ‘why have we seen this before?’ It’s such an interesting topic which led to me discovering the backrooms conspiracy, everything about these images are so chilling and the feeling is like nothing else

I guess we're just so used to being around people that when we're alone we just feel that somethings wrong you hear all these people talking, yelling, just seeing people is part of our life so when we are alone things just don't feel right, Being alone is like a fear that all people have.

I’ve seen a indoor playground and a huge mat in a foam pit.The lights dim,creepy dark slide,slip n slide pool that’s red.I first saw it when I was 9 and I still see it

this just reminds me of all the "memories" I have that I'm not sure if they were actually real or just a dream- and I'm way too scared to ever ask my parents about if it was a real memory or not

Kassie: *posts this at like, 8pm*
Kassie's fans: yes, im early!
Also Kassie: dont sleep.

If you've ever been in a weirdcore dream, remember this quote from mangle in UNC "He's here and always watching" remember that because someone's always there and always watching.

I love weird/dream/kidcore it's just beautiful

who else got chills watching these photos? I felt like I wanted to cry also.

I havent looked at her channel in forever, and when i saw this, I was like, " yes, get in my life *now* "
!MY OPINION!
I *really* like weirdcore/liminal spaces, for some reason I just get happiness and closure from the pictures and things that use the aesthetic, I'm just glad that it gets more attention now.

8:57 I’ve had some days off from pathways(wich btw is a program at my school)like this and I’ve thought about my friends working and I’ve never felt scared At all bcuz I have my iPad

weird core sounds like disturbing stuff, body parts, unsettling, eyes, and more and weird stuff.
I've also been to one of those places.

Aaaaaa Gloom is so close to 7 mil subs!!! I’m excited for her lol!

As a 2000's kid i can confirm that these made me so uncomfortable lol, but the asthetic is strangely nice so im here for it❤

Is it weird that with every one of those photos i felt a sense of calm, like this is where im supposed to be? Like, i know im supposed to feel weird, but i feel so calm and happy looking at these photos

Bro its 2023 and I see this video and see when it came out this came out on my birthday and I love scary things like What is the chance

This makes me think of exploring my great-grandmother's house shortly after she had died. I felt like there was something missing, a hole in reality. I never knew my great grandmother, but I think she was trying to say hello that day.

these are the kind of things that make me genuinely believe we’re living in a simulation. there’s a professor and scientist that works at oxford who confirmed there is a solid 50/50 chance we’re living in a simulation. but seriously what else explains how for some reason we all feel like we’ve been to these places. of course, deja vu is on the table, but like just the feeling of familiarity even though none of us have vivid memories of being in those exact places scares me.

All it takes to scare me is an empty white box with white lighting coming from seemingly nowhere-
Or my mom when she’s mad😂

Weirdcore is just so beautiful, comforting, disturbing, and nostalgic I love it so much 🥰😊

Hey kass, I love the lights! Your videos make my day and make me feel less anxious after a long bad day

weird, i always loved these type of places/situations. i loved staying after school, or like when everyones in class, and walking around the empty to corridors. being in a part of a building that u arent supposed to be in. i love when buildings give u that emptiness feeling. i love looking at my window at night and thinking about everyway that a person get in. how they could just climb up the pipe on my house, reach in thru the gap and open it. or how they could just appear in the street, standing there in the dead quiet of the night, not moving. i love listening to the quiet and hearing them slight noises that make u think "is someone breaking in" "are they walking around my house" i think its just the suspense of it all

I love this aesthetic

ive been waiting for this video for years

This reminds me of when I was younger and I had the recurring dream of going into one of those pizza play places, but it was all empty and the jungle gym and slides and everything was lined up against the back wall and all the colors were muted. In my dream the lights were always flickering, and the counter where you bought pizza had its lights on, and the equipment was on, but there was no one there. Dream me always ended up going to this one bright blue fabric tube in a corner and jumping into it, and then landing in an abandoned dentists office covered in rust and grime. To this day one of the most unsettling dreams I've ever had.

Me: *questioning if I should even watch this out of the fear that I might not even be able to go to sleep tonight*

so dreamcore and weirdcore :D
so aesthetic i love it :)

Déjà vu is very unsettling but really cool when we experience it... It hasn't happend to me in years...

Gloom always makes my day. Every time she uploads My day gets better!!

People always say: "You've definitely seen these liminal spaces in your dreams before!"
...
The only places I see in my dreams that I remember are: My home, my school and my own imagination creating places based on what I've seen in movies.

The weirdest dream I’ve had is i was sleeping and all of the sudden my bedroom door flies into the hallway and I run downstairs and everyone in my family is outside. My house was empty I look up and there was a giant octopus through all of the windows upstairs.

i now take extra classes after school and the school's empty hallway sent chills down my spine
