Deaths

This page is to show off all the ways you can die in Escape the Backrooms. They will be shown off in Level order and have a description of what causes the player's death.

The player is mostly killed by the many entities but, sometimes they can die from environmental hazards or themselves.

Info that is implied that isn't from the game is from Fancy's videos, Wikidot, and Fandom Wiki. Since the current Levels in game are from those 2 places.

## Current deaths

### The Howler

When the Howler catches the player they are likely torn limb from limb.

### Skin-Stealer

When a Skin-Stealer catches the player they are messily devoured.

### Sanity

The player hallucinates a bunch of Smilers before going insane. In the lore, after this they are likely transformed into a Wretch afterwards.

### Smilers

* Level 1 jumpscare
* Level 2 jumpscare
1/2
When a Smiler catches the player they will leap onto them and they're brutally murdered. According to the fandom wiki page for it, Smilers when killing a wanderer will mutilate their face to make them smile.

### Hounds

When a Hound catches the player they will tear them up and feed on them.

In the last area of Level 3 there are puddles of water near electrical equipment which will make them dangerous to the touch. Electrifying the player with who knows how many volts before being killed.

### Female Death Moths

* Carried to the nest by a Female Death Moth
1/2
When a Female Death Moth catches the player they will stare at them in the face and, presumably off camera, will spit acid at them to kill them. According to the Wikidot page, they can spit acid.

Alternatively, if the player is caught be one within a certain range of the nest they will be carried there where they will then be feasted upon and likely fed to the larvae.

### Partygoers

When a Partygoer gets a player they are messily devoured. Alternatively, they could just be killing the player before turning their remains into a cake according to their old documentation which no longer exists and only archives of it exist (Youtube videos for example).

### Liquid Pain

When the player drinks Liquid Pain their visions quickly worsens before they die. However, what happens to them internally is much worse. According to the Fandom Wiki page for it the following stages happen after consuming Liquid Pain:

* Burning/tingling sensation at point of contact
* Intense irritation and itchiness of the epidermis
* Gradual rise in internal body temperature
* Intense stabbing pain within the stomach, resulting from acidic corrosion of stomach lining and intestines
* Further stabbing pain spread throughout the entire body,
* Boiling of blood
* Rupture of veins/arteries, internal bleeding
* On rare occasions, spontaneous combustion
* Death

### Blue Tiles

Inside Level 37 there are some areas the player should avoid. Such as huge bodies of water that will result in the player drowning. However, in dark rooms where the floor tiles are Blue in color, unknown or anomalous phenomenon occur which will result in the players death. This is unique to this game and isn't on the Wikidot or Fandom Wiki pages for Level 37.

### Entity Horde

In Level ! the player is chased by a horde of entities which currently consist of a single Smiler and multiple Partygoers. When caught the player falls over on their side before the entities kill the player. According to archived Level ! info, the entities will kill the player in a horrifying and very painful way.

### The Scratcher

This entity is unique to this game and isn't on the Wikidot or Fandom pages of The End. When The Scratcher catches the player it will swing its right arm at the player. Depending on the entity's strength is could result in either:

* Decapitation
* Serious brain injury that results in death

### Animations

When the Animations get the player they jump upwards onto them and scream and flail around. According to their entity page on the Wikidot they will kill the player via blunt force. Causing their death due to:

* lacerations
* internal hemorrhages
* bone fractures

### Animated King

When the Animated King sneaks up on the player he will use his giant hammer to kill the player. Just like the Animations, he will kill the player via blunt force.

### Wretch (Level 6)

When a Wretch gets the player in Level 6 they will jumpscare the player before the camera cuts out. According to the Wikidot and Fandom Wiki, they posses great strength so it's likely that after the camera cuts out they kill the player in an unknown way using their superior strength. Like breaking vital bones, tearing them limb from limb, bending their bodies in fatal ways, blunt force, strangulation, etc.

### The Neighborhood Watch

When The Neighborhood Watch catch the player it will pick the player up and move them towards its eye before the camera cuts out. After the camera cuts out, according to the Wikidot page, they will grab onto their target tightly and will bludgeon them against the sidewalk and street until they die.

### Wretch (Level 9 & Abandoned Outpost)

As stated above in the previous Wretch death, they will swing a crowbar at the player's head. Combined with their superior strength this will result in the players death via blunt force. Likely caving their skull in where they will die from blood loss and or brain damage as well.

### Faceling Rogue

When a Faceling Rogue sneaks up on the player or the player doesn't turn around in time to stare at them they will pick the player up and carry them deep into the wheat fields of Level 10. According to both Wikidot and Fandom Wiki pages they have normal or less than human strength. Specifically on the Fandom Wiki page, some types of Facelings can get aggressive if a wanderer enters their territory and others just hate humans in general. The cause of death from the Faceling Rogue is unknown but, could be from anything they can do from the environment to just their physical bodies such as blunt force or strangulation.

### Farmer Faceling

For similar reasons above this Faceling will attack the player with a chainsaw to kill them. Resulting in massive blood loss, organ destruction, and likely broken bones. Both the Wikidot and Fandom Wiki mention that Facelings can use tools and weapons and will likely inhabit Levels that have a human connection or feeling. Such as Levels with neighborhoods, cities, or in the case of Level 10, farms.

* Strangulation
* Strangulation and then turned into a cake
* Infecting them with a virus that will turn them into a Partygoer as well
