Level 3 is the 4th level of the Backrooms.

Description

Level 3, also referred to as "The Electrical Station", is an expansive complex of attenuated brick hallways with electrical machinery scattered throughout. Similarly to , the layout of Level 3 appears to be randomly segmented, shifting and warping in many directions, most of which being illogical in appearance. One constant that is seemingly universally maintained throughout Level 3 is the piping that lines the walls and ceilings of the strange labyrinth.

Level 3's configuration seems to be much more diversified than that of , despite some similarities. The majority of said similarities exist in isolated sectors of Level 3, not universally applicable to the level. Nevertheless, both levels are often depicted as having thin, attenuated hallways.

As aforementioned, the walls and ceilings of Level 3 are lined with piping. These pipes vary in size and inventory; some are empty, whilst some are filled with fluids that resemble either water, almond water, or petrol. Neither of these, especially the latter, are safe to consume. In rare instances, the pipes of Level 3 contain articulate wiring, which does not appear to serve any purpose.

Varying types of machinery can be found throughout Level 3, but the majority of these archetypes power an unknown location, seemingly outside of the level; others seem to control and power the pipes. Often, exposed wires emerge from the ceiling, walls, and floors.

In relatively desolate, rare locations in Level 3, dimly lit hallways may be found; as is common throughout most of the level, the lights are relatively quiet, though they seem to be even quieter in these locations. Whilst these hallways may appear eerie to wanderers, there are no accounts of entity attacks, nor any harm being delivered to wanderers in these locations. Many wanderers have reported that these rare spots have soothing effects on all who enter.

Metallic bars can also be found in Level 3, serving no known purpose. Attempts to break through these have been in vain, and they seem to be an unbreakable barrier. In many cases, as pictured, windows lie beyond these bars. Whether or not these particular windows offer any form of exit or anomaly is unknown, as the majority of them are inaccessible, rarely being found anywhere else in the level. All attempts of exploration beyond these bars have been in vain.

As is pictured, strange machinery can be found in Level 3, in rare rooms that seem to follow a common, repeating pattern; they seem to be located in a straight line from one another. The true nature of this, however, is unconfirmed, due to the non-euclidean properties of Level 3.

Many have theorized that these strange rooms present in Level 3 are used to connect the level, and perhaps power it — some have gone as far to claim that the machinery and wires present on Level 3 power the Backrooms at large, or at the very least, the Main Nine. This claim has been widely disputed, though it has not yet been disproven. It is highly feasible that Level 3, the Electrical Station, works as just that; a station used to power the Backrooms.

As aforementioned, windows present behind the strange, indestructible prison bars found on Level 3 are inaccessible; nevertheless, windows are often found in locations which do not contain the bar phenomenon. These locations and Windows differ drastically in comparison to those found behind bars, in several ways:
