Backrooms Online, a good friend of mine and a well-known Backrooms news account on here, has had their account taken down after speaking out against A24’s recent actions of taking down anything Backrooms. This is absolutely unacceptable and I am appalled by this. I have no words.

This is her latest post to her website regarding the situation, posted just a bit before the account was taken down. I think it’s relevant to include here. backroomsmovie.com/2026/07/a…

Ayayay. A third-party media company has nothing to do with X account suspensions. Anyone who has worked at X or Meta knows it is triggered by spam or strict internal triggers, has nothing to do with an account talking shit about someone. 🤦

I was just about to buy over 210 in physical copies of their films, including the Backrooms pre-order. I know it isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things, but I will not click buy until this whole thing gets sorted.

crazy how in the span of a month a24 went from a well-respected and highly acclaimed company to doing stupid stuff like this… I seriously hope Kane says something

I've always worried about "open-source" fiction that is basically owned by nobody being at risk of something like this happening when a larger entity tried to take ownership of the concept. The original author of the idea is unknown and probably couldn't prove it was their idea.

None of us could have expected this and it’s a terrible way to treat fans who made this movie launch as successful as it was worldwide; seeing it 5+ times in theaters on top of that? Fan merch and games have existed way before A24 came into the picture, they have no justification for this and it’s so disappointing. Hopefully her account gets restored and there is an official statement soon. Kane must be stressed out about this too on top of other projects he already most likely started :(

i feel incredibly bad for kane i cant imagine how stressful this whole ordeal is for him, especially since people not in the know of everything are likely to pin the blame on him too.

Jezus thats ridiculous. The backrooms stories were there way before their stupid movie came out 😡

Replying to @KaneHypeGuy
yeah that's disgusting. their legal team really missed the memo on how un-own-able the Backrooms are, or they're really banking on how the small guys aren't gonna be able to afford lawyers.

Holy shit, that sucks. I remember their last post was saying about how they feared that A24 might come for them because of the domain name, but it seems like A24 is doing a crazy copyright blitz on anything Backrooms. It’s a terrible disservice to fans.

I agree. Nobody owns the backrooms. Is a24 gonna try to sue me for these images of me being stuck in the backrooms?

I will not abide the corporations trying to take over. A24 is jumping on the playstation powergrab and its not going to go well. You do not own the backrooms!

Holy shit. What an insane way to completely decimate your reputation and destroy all the goodwill you’ve built as a film company. @A24, is being anti consumer and pro AI slop really the hill you want to die on? What a shame. I’ll be avoiding A24 movies and media from now on 👍

Kane said he was gonna take care of it. We just gotta wait till then unfortunately

This is absolutely ridiculous. No one owns " The Backrooms" or the idea of Backrooms. They've seriously misjudged the situation and don't think they quite understand what the term even means anymore

Was this really caused by A24, or is it a consequence of redbubble's AI moderation?

It's time. Someone find the original photographer of the Oshkosh hobby shop and make them sue A24.
