Why does indie-mascot horror keep returning to the trope of the underground laboratory—a subterranean factory of nightmares that stretches endlessly downward? From Five Nights at Freddy’s to Poppy Playtime to Bendy and The Ink Machine, this setting has become a hallmark of the genre. But why is it so hauntingly effective, so widespread, and what does it symbolize?

In this episode of Into The Night, we explore the roots of the underground lab trope, its ties to Afton Robotics / Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rentals, and the metaphorical “Chasm of Babel”—a reflection of humanity’s pride, hubris, and desire to usurp the divine. We’ll discuss how these hidden depths embody the decay of the world, the arrogance of men who try to cheat death, and the terrifying cost of intellect unbound by morality.
