House of Leaves served as one of the prime inspirations for MyHouse.wad, a Doom II mod revolving around a house that is constantly shifting and changing in uncomfortable ways, making frequent use of non-Euclidean space. The map was released in March 2023.[17][18][19] Critic Terry Mesnard wrote that the 2020 movie You Should Have Left felt "ripped" from the House of Leaves.[20] References

I had a nightmare inspired by it. It was that I was a soldier and crashed a black aeroplane in a sunny meadow in a forest. There was this house that had a door to a non-world where everything was black, it was the hallway of my house. A black kitten wanted me to follow it further in and a light switched on upstairs, something wanted me to go up there. I took the kitten back to the real world but it died instantly because it wasn’t used to sunlight. Then I tried cloning it but the experiment went wrong and contaminated the real world atmosphere with the blackness.
This is my diary entry from right after my dad died. I feel shocked at how much I've changed:
"I'm about to lose it. I don't know if Migi coming back into my life is good or bad. I'm done with Carrie she stood me up. My Betterhelp therapist doesn't even want to talk with me he said I should talk to my psychologist instead. I know I'm depressed because this is the first time there's no books I really want to buy... and I realised, I always read other peoples favourite books, I don't know what kind of books I like.
So I've turned to Fetlife and some fucked up shit. Actually I did just buy a book but it's Fetlife related so you don't want to know. There's no availability for botox appointments. I've been non-stop cleaning a bad sign. I just feel so lost.
The only thing I can think to do is go to Belfast today to get coke, spend time outside and ig try to make friends irl. The arcade is open and has the original Space Invaders game so that's comforting. Doodle Jump and Space Invaders are my best games. I'll probably start replying to more messages I get on Fetlife as well. Maybe being drowned in male attention will help me."
