Filmmaker Kane Parsons released the 16-minute Backrooms series installment Everything Must Go on YouTube on August 18, 2026. The footage originally played after the end credits of the A24 feature film The Backrooms, which opened in the United States on May 29, 2026. It connects his YouTube series with the film version.
Everything Must Go is the first main Backrooms series post since Static Dead End on February 12, 2025, a gap of about a year and a half while Parsons worked on the feature film. The footage was shown after the end credits of The Backrooms in theaters, and a Backrooms: Everything Must Go Edition with the extra 16 minutes began screenings in the United States on July 3, 2026.
The series began with The Backrooms (Found Footage), a roughly nine-minute short Parsons posted to YouTube on January 7, 2022, when he was 16. He built the yellow rooms with Blender and Adobe After Effects to mimic low-quality videotape, then expanded the story with investigation footage from the fictional Async Research Institute.
