Level 434 is the 435th level of the Backrooms.

Description
Level 434 takes the form of a small laundromat. There are a total of thirty-two washing machines on this level, lined symmetrically against the left and right walls. Both walls have two columns of eight machines that are stacked on top of each other. It is impossible to move, relocate, break, or destroy any of the washing machines. Similarly, there are sixteen dryers pressed up against one another in the middle of the room. Eight face the left wall and eight face the right wall. It is impossible to move, relocate, break, or destroy any of the drying machines.

The room is a perfect rectangle, about 685 centimeters in length and 411 centimeters in width. Three of the walls are solid and present no doors, windows, or décor of any kind. The walls are beige in color but mold and water damage can be seen along the upper part of the wall. The final wall is that of a storefront, with four large windows on either side of glass double doors. The glass of the windows and the door is tinted to such an extremity that it is impossible to see through. It is impossible to destroy any of the glass or open either of the double doors. The ceiling tiles are mainly white but speckled with small black marks, some may also be contaminated with mold and water damage. There are ten fluorescent white ceiling light panels. Five are located in between the washers and dryers on the left side of the room, and five are located in between the washers and dryers on the right side of the room. These lights will dimly flicker or buzz. The floor tiles look to once have been white, but have dirtied to a yellow color.

The dryers of this level are permanently on and have yet to show any sign of finishing a load or stopping. It is impossible to open any of the dryers or see what is inside, as there are no windows on the machine. The only known being capable of operating these machines is Entity 434.

The washing machines of this level do have cycles and will make noise when a load is completed, the most common is the song “Mary Had a Little Lamb” sung through a series of beeps. The washing machines all possess circular windows which, when looked through, one will be able to see a varying amount of socks. These socks differ in shape, color, pattern, and size. It is unknown why only socks appear in any of the machines. Any of the washing machines can be opened at any point within their cycle, and they will stop spinning as soon as the door opens. It is heavily advised against disturbing any ongoing load as it increases the amount of hostile activity within the level.

When one enters this level, they will always appear in the front of the store with their back facing the double doors. One of the washing machine doors will already be open. In order to leave this level, one must approach the open washing machine and deposit their socks before closing the door. They then must wait for the machine to finish their load and then the song that comes afterward. Once the final note is played, they will be transported back to the area they were before entering Level 434.

Colonies and Outposts
Due to the nature of this level, colonies and outposts are unable to be established.

Entities
Entity 434 - “The Attendant” / Class 5 / Level 434

Entity 434, informally known as The Attendant, is the only known entity that inhabits Level 434 and is only known to inhabit Level 434. Any known contact with Entity 434 results in death, and any knowledge of appearance, motive, and abilities are due to photography and/or videos. Do not, under any circumstances, seek out Entity 434.

Entity 434 is a pale, tall, humanoid entity. Though humanoid, it is said to be inhumanely skinny, with any limbs being almost stick-like, and scratches of various severity and length covering its body. Its arms are very long, as are its fingers which also take on a blackened, rotting color. Its fingers stop just below its kneecaps. Its feet are also blackened. Entity 434 possesses a hairless face with two large, white eyes that possess no iris or pupil. Only the sclera is visible. This entity has no nose but does have an abnormally large “stretched-V”-like mouth with a very long tongue. Entity 434 is known to lick its eyes with its tongue, presumably to clean them. Entity 434 also appears to wear a pair of shorts sewn together from many different pairs of socks.

Entity 434 only appears if provoked or unoffered washing machines are disturbed. If one is wearing socks when in the vicinity of Entity 434, it is known to amputate both feet and strip them of socks before killing the victim, usually by ripping them apart. If one encounters Entity 434 without socks, it will go straight to tearing the victim apart. It will then discard the body by opening a dryer and depositing the body. It is the only known thing capable of operating the dryers located on Level 434. No known weapon is known to stop Entity 434, as it does not respond nor show any signs of pain.

Entity 434 makes long, drawn-out creaking noises, continuously described as that of a rusty door hinge. However, Entity 434 has also been documented in pronouncing words, phrases, and even names.

Entrances
The Laundromat can be entered from any level. In order to enter, one must be shoeless but wearing socks for an extended period of time. Once these requirements are met, there is a low chance of noclipping through the floor when traveling and appearing at Level 434.

Exits
One must approach the open washing machine seen when entering the level and deposit their socks before closing the door. They then must wait for the machine to finish their load and then the song that comes afterward. Once the final note is played, they will be transported back to the area they were before entering Level 434.

It is advised that any Wanderer who finds themselves within the confines of Level 434 begin the exit ritual as soon as possible. Follow the list of Dos and Do-Nots to ensure your survivability.

Do not:


 * Do not delay in depositing your socks into the designated machine.
 * Do not deposit your socks into any machine other than the one that opened to you.
 * Do not try to retrieve your socks while they are inside the operating machine.
 * Do not interrupt the washing process of other machines. This includes taking items out of the washers, placing items into the washers, or simply opening the door
 * Do not attempt to set up a colony, base, or headquarters within the area of Level 434.
 * Do not attempt to gather the attention of Entity 434.

Failing to comply with this list will put your life in danger by attracting Entity 434. Instead, do:


 * Place both of your socks within the offered machine as soon as possible.
 * Leave the machine and all other machines alone until the exit ritual is completed, to which you will then be safely transported back to the area you were before entering Level 434.
 * A load takes approximately 54 minutes to complete. In this time, sit, walk, or lie down and wait patiently for your designated machine to finish its load and the nursery that comes afterward. It is advised against sleeping during this period of time.
