Finding Backrooms frightening largely due to all the unanchored furniture.

joke's on you, the Backrooms people are renting it from a landlord with a lease that forbids screwing anything into the walls! ... is what I would say, but I know you'll respond with something about adhesive-based anchors.

What your landlord doesn't know won't kill them! Ours specified in the lease not to put *any* kind of nails or screws in the wall, but I'm convinced they wouldn't even know which were from the prior tenant, and it's not like they gave enough of a damn to patch those anyway.

I thought what my landlord didn't know wouldn't kill them, but they didn't know about the pit with poisoned punji stakes I dug, and wouldn'tcha know...

they'll probably know about it before they bleed out, so I've got you on a technicality there

Spackle is cheap and easy. If you tell the hardware store what it's for they'll spin up a sample size of the paint match for you. And failing that? White toothpaste in the holes just before final walk-through. They give us the Landlord Special and they can get the Tenant Special right back.

we did this with smoke detectors on the ceilings, and we didn't patch the holes.

Concerning that they didn't have those to begin with. Usually housing code covers that, I think?
