  "account": "Backrooms director Kane Parsons has always envisioned a limited series as the ideal format to conclude his liminal space story, according to quotes obtained by Deadline. Parsons, who did not create the original viral 4chan greentext post that sparked the Backrooms craze, has become its primary spokesperson thanks to his popular YouTube series exploring the concept. He told the outlet that while he's always had a \"plan\" for the series' ending, adapting it into a proper format has been challenging. Parsons expressed excitement about the prospect of bringing the main ending to life through a limited series, stating there's \"a very set arc to the whole thing from the beginning.\" He emphasized how his Backrooms saga has resonated with a generation that grew up online and that the trend of turning popular internet creepypastas into big-budget adaptations is \"inevitable.\" The resurgence of Backrooms on HBO Max has viewers curious about what's next for the IP or Parsons as a filmmaker.",
