There's an explanation for why we feel weird about a few of the places I'm going to mention. "Liminal spaces" are spaces where you feel out of context with your surrounding environment. These spaces are usually "in-between" places, places we go when we're waiting for something to happen next, not for the actual place itself (bus stops, a parking lot of a store, etc.).
1. Empty parking garages
2. Walmart late at night or really early in the morning
Walmart in general, honestly.
3. Typically busy roads and highways when they're completely dead
4. Empty airport terminals
5. Rest stop gas stations
6. Schools and campuses during long breaks
7. Parks after they close at night
But do parks actually ever "close?"
8. Hospitals at night
9. Abandoned buildings
It feels especially weird when you know what the building used to look like before its decay.
10. Any kitchen in the middle of the night
When we linger in these places for too long, our bodies feel way out of context, like we know something is supposed to happen, but it just does not. Others are spaces I mention are typically busy or brightly-lit when we see them in our day-to-day lives, so we feel out of context seeing them any other way. In places like these, it feels like reality alters just a little bit, giving us an unsettling, but weirdly calming feeling.
