The Phenomenon of Liminal Spaces

The Phenomenon of Liminal Spaces If you’ve ever been online, I’m sure you’ve come across at least one post or image that has a similar look or feel to the ones above. I’ve come across them mostly on TikTok and I always take a minute to kind of marvel at them. Sometimes I even like to imagine what it would be like to actually be inside of it. You might have even experienced these unique spaces in real life. An empty parking garage at night, a deserted playground, a store right before it closes. They’re called liminal spaces and in recent years the internet has become fascinated with the concept of them. The word liminal refers to the general concept of transition or being in between something. It can be an emotional transition , like that feeling right before starting a new job and quitting your old one, or something more physical. Such as a hallway, or a staircase.

It’s a lesser known, supposedly true ghost stories and centers around this farm in rural Wales called, Heol Fanong. The acting, the way its told and the sound effects all combine to make it one of the scariest podcasts I’ve listened to. It’s even been called the Welsh Amityville and Hellfire Farm. I recommend you listen to it yourself before reading this because I’m going to go into spoiler territory, as I’m going to do a quick run down of the case.  In 1989, Bill Rich, his wife, Liz, and Bill’s son Laurence from a previous marriage, move into a remote farmhouse in the Welsh countryside. The house seems fine enough and they’re both excited to start a new life for themselves. Liz is pregnant with their son Ben, and Bill is excited to work on his art from the secluded farm house. The house is idyllic, located in the Bre...
