Description
The Lament Room Illustration.
The Lament Room is a 2x2x1.7 m bathroom space with a metal door that cannot be opened. The room had a strong smell of chlorine (other survivors mentioned the smell of ammonia), and the floor was slightly flooded due to a leaky faucet and a slightly clogged drain; the latrine was also unusable because it was also clogged. There is lighting on the ceiling of the room, but due to its low position, survivors have to be careful not to bump into it. The room has small air vents on the left and right sides of the room, the bathroom walls are made of mossy bricks covered with cement around the door, the iron door is brown in color and has a small window so that survivors can see outside.
The view outside the room is known to be similar for each survivor who views it, all showing the view from the location that survivors miss the most, their respective homes in the Frontrooms. It is unknown whether this space is connected to the Frontrooms or not given that the view shown is exactly the survivors' homes in the Frontrooms, one survivor even saw their family members coming out of the house. The situation outside can also change as it can rain or enter the night time.

Judging from the position of the viewpoint presented through the window, it can be seen that this room is located inside a building located right in front of the house while another survivor mentioned that the position of this room is across the street because their house in Frontrooms is on the edge of the road. However, attempts to communicate were fruitless as whoever was outside the room was unaware of the room's existence—putting mental pressure on the survivors who were unable to call out to their relatives.
After some time in the room, voices can be heard from outside which are usually those of the "neighbors" talking about the survivor's passing and how it has affected the survivor's family and others. These conversations will continue for hours before finally falling silent. The silence will give way to more chatter but this time from the survivor's family, usually discussing where the survivor has gone and how much they miss them.
It is nicknamed "The Lament Room" because it puts "mental pressure" on survivors who enter it by making them regret being in the Backrooms and separated from their families. Those who enter the room claim this mental pressure is enough to drive someone to suicide by touching the electricity in the lights and allowing themselves to be electrocuted—although there has been no evidence of any deaths in this room.
Entrance and Exit
So far only three survivors have reported this room, all three of them found this room when they were about to enter the bathroom so it is assumed that this is the only way to enter the room. All three only exited the room after about 12 hours inside the room, they both experienced a no-clip through the floor and arrived at the last level they were on.
