What is Fiction2Reality?
Fiction2Reality (F2R) is a long-term creative venture focused on translating fictional spaces into real, explorable places people can experience and explore. The work begins digitally, with 3D environments, films, images, and world-building, and aims over time toward physical, visitable spaces.
What is the eventual plan for the physical spaces?
The end goal is to create large-scale, visitable physical spaces based on places from fictional worlds. They will not merely be a ride, set tour, or group of decorated rooms, but fully explorable environments*! Imagine wandering through the infinite yellow halls of the Backrooms, or exploring every corridor of the Hogwarts castle.
*The exact form will depend on feasibility, partnerships, rights, safety, and what the earlier digital work teaches us
What does the timeline look like?
We can't really say at this point; Fiction2Reality is still in its first (digital) stage, and later stages depend on audience growth, funding, design development, collaborators, property rights, and construction feasibility. Updates will be shared as milestones become concrete.
Why begin with the Backrooms and liminal spaces?
The Backrooms (and other liminal environments) allows the team to experiment with our first fictional world without beginning with the complexity that larger commercial experiences would require. The broader Backrooms phenomenon grew through decentralized internet culture, allowing for creative world-building and making it a rich starting point for Fiction2Reality.
Is Fiction2Reality fully digital, or will it really become physical?
Both are part of the vision. The digital work is not filler: it is creative work in its own right, and a practical way to test environments, storytelling, and audience interest. Physical spaces remain the long-term ambition, but they will require substantially more planning, capital, expertise, and time.
How will Fiction2Reality handle licensing and intellectual property?
Any project based on a protected fictional property would require the appropriate permission, license, or official partnership before becoming a commercial physical experience. Until then, references to properties such as Hogwarts describe long-term inspiration, not an affiliation or authorization. Original concepts and properly usable material provide room to create and learn in the meantime.
How will Fiction2Reality be funded?
Possible paths include revenue from creative work, crowdfunding, community support, investors, sponsors, and/or strategic partners. No single funding model has been finalized. Building strong digital work first helps demonstrate the idea before larger financial commitments are sought.
Who is working on Fiction2Reality?
Fiction2Reality is led by Aaron Schlossberg along with fellow founders Luna and Alexander Lee and first non-founder staff The L Factory, with a small, evolving group of collaborators contributing skills such as 3D modeling, animation, storyboarding, design, and world-building. Contributors vary by project.
