Behind the Yellow Door

we made a blog so we could talk about our youtube project + answer questions! mostly exploring abandoned stuff and making skits. come hang out! 🚪✨

[behind-the-yellow-door]

hi!! welcome to behind the yellow door :) so this blog exists because four of us keep talking about making a youtube channel and we needed somewhere to put ideas + answer questions once we actually start posting. The Yellow Door (working title!!) is going to be an exploration/skit channel. mostly exploring abandoned places (safely, we promise) and sometimes scripted stuff when we can’t find anywhere new to go. this blog is: - behind-the-scenes stuff - updates on what we’re planning - answering asks so we don’t repeat ourselves everywhere - probably a lot of rambling because we’re all doing this for the first time who we are: Jude — idea guy, organiser, brown hair, too many notes Avery — editing, sound, tech wizard (their words!), teal hair (yes it’s dyed), notices everything Lina — writes the skits, red hair, has approximately a million google docs Corbin — filming + camera, auburn hair, deals with us on location we’re still figuring things out, so things might change as we go, but we’re really excited and honestly just happy people are interested already. feel free to send asks!! we’ll answer what we can :) – the yellow door team 🚪💛

if you have any questions about a specific member of our team (and it isn’t too personal!) go ahead and ask. you just need to specify wether you’re asking about Jude(me!), Lina, Avery, or Corbin!

- Jude

[behind-the-yellow-door]

not something we usually post, but I felt like this has to be seen by other people

Corbin got this damn skull thing for Christmas and he won’t stop sending pictures to the group (this is one of them!). he has dubbed it ‘Sir Reginald this fourth’ (why the forth? what happened to the last three?) and has decided to make eyes for it

he knows the eyes are different sizes, he said it builds character. he also said that when he colours them, he’ll have one of his favourite horror game characters in mind. never said who, just that it’s gonna have a green eye and a blue eye!

please explain why he’s found it so fascinating, I’m extremely confused… I am also just as much as a fan of Reginald as he is. Jude doesn’t like Reginald though.

BOO JUDE FOR HIS ABSOLUTE CRIME OF NOT LIKING REGINALD! >:(

- Avery (still absolutely peeved about Lina making me watch that damn Baby Shark thing!)

[behind-the-yellow-door]

(so sorry for the late follow up ask! My phone was acting up so I didn't get the notif until now)

Totally agree about the red pandas! They're easily In my top 5 favorite animals! X3

Also, OMG do you have a plushie of one?? Honestly I am SO jealous, I would buy one myself if I wasn't so broke—

Moving on to another unrelated question, what's everyone's favorite colors? :3

I do have a plushie of one! bought it last time I went to the zoo (got a magnet too!)

getting back on track with the question;

Jude’s favourite colour is purple (I’ll try getting him to sign off with it on his solo answers! he’s useless with the colours on his own :D)

Corbin’s favourite colour is green (might ask him to try remembering to sign off with it on any solo posts!)

Avery’s favourite colour is primarily teal, but they like blue too

my favourite colour is red. which is an explanation for why I started signing off with it (and the shade Avery threw at when I first tried dying my hair made it obvious. the audacity they have!)

they have been punished for their wrong doings (bringing up my hair dye mishap >:[) with watching Baby Shark. they are writing what I think are made-up insults for what I did, but at least they have learned not to bring it up

- Lina

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Do you ever plan on doing other things with the channel? Like maybe vlogging or reviews?

Oh! And merry(sorta late) christmas to you all!! ^w^

vlogs and reviews are definitely things we’ll think about, so when we get the channel up (we’ll make sure to post about it!), we will definitely be asking for suggestions

still a work in progress for getting equipment to start with, but we’ll try as soon as we can!

we apologise for how late we’ve seen this, but well were all busy with our families on Christmas (incredibly enjoyable), so we didn’t have the time to check the blog. Corbin and Lina have been helping with their families too, so we haven’t all been together that often. hoping we get more free time!

[behind-the-yellow-door]

How are you all doing? It's been a while since we last heard from you guys—

we’ve all been doing fine. been more focused on doing things outside of the blog (Corbin and looking after Luna, Lina with helping with her niece and nephew), so we haven’t really had time to check

we apologise for missing anything, but we’ll be getting back on track with answers

- the yellow door team 🚪💛

in case of any confusion about why the sign offs are sometimes a 💛 and sometimes a ✨, it’s because Lina has chose to use the sparkles

- Jude

[behind-the-yellow-door]

You mentioned that you guys would also be doing skits on the channel, may I ask what kind exactly? Like are they gonna be based on popular memes or just straight up improv?

it’ll be a mix of the two. some things will be based on memes others will (mostly) be improvised.

Lina has taken it upon herself to be the script writer, so not entirely improv. she said it’d be fun and that she’s seen plenty of scripts before, so we aren’t too worried

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Make them watch baby shark😈/silly/hj/nf

I can’t believe I didn’t think of that in the first place. thank you for that

thank you and off to go make them suffer now :D (won’t tell them you gave me the idea!)

- Lina

[behind-the-yellow-door]

do u guys have any other social media? or do u prefer 2 be anonymous?

nope! we don’t have any social media (as a team) apart from this blog. sometime in the future though, as we have established before, we will have a YouTube channel. we haven’t yet checked if ‘The Yellow Door’ is an available channel name, but if it isn’t, we’ll just use the same name as this account!

we prefer being anonymous, apart from our names and hair colours. Corbin does have a Reddit account though, hasn’t told us the name yet, but once he does (if he chooses to do so!) we’ll probably update this post

- the yellow door team 🚪✨

[behind-the-yellow-door]

who designed the door logo?

Lina did. she decided that since we’re going the yellow door for our blog name, our icon should fit it

she was in complete charge of the icon, but she did ask for ideas too. she took full liberty with some things though. the four squares were a group decision, so it would be recognisable for us since she chose to use our hair colours :)

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Ah understandable, gotta make sure the ol' place is doggie-safe!/silly

And of course! I LOVE dogs! They're like one of my favorite animals ^w^

While we're at it, what's everyone's favorite animal? :3

if anything went wrong while one of us was with Luna, Corbin would probably flay us alive!

to answer your question:

Jude likes snakes, but he likes guinea pigs too. he likes snakes more though. he let us hold one of his snakes once, felt weird when it was slithering around

Corbin likes dogs (clearly), but he also likes wolves and foxes. said they’re cool and that he’d like to pet one (wasn’t specific if it was talking about a wolf or a fox)

Avery likes hamsters. they like saying hampter a lot, but in the most serious Scottish accent you can imagine. they have a hamster called Dilys. they liked watching Fireman Sam when they were younger, I did too

I, Lina, really like red pandas. favourite thing to see when we choose to go to the zoo. they’re absolutely adorable and they look so cuddle-able, but the closest I can get to cuddling one is a red panda teddy bear

saw what Avery said about when I tried dyeing my hair, so I will be making them suffer in some way. suggestions would be helpful because I can’t make them watch Thomas & Friends because they like trains and they liked watching that

- Lina (decided I’ll start signing off in a different colour, makes it easier)

Corbin also likes seagulls and rats, usually call him the ‘Seagull Wizard’ because he has plenty of seagull things. doesn’t make it any better that you can buy seagull keychains, teddies, and more

- Jude

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Awww, she's adorable! X3

Does she also join in on the exploration?

we’ve not brought her with us before, but if we find somewhere safe enough and there’s plenty places she could walk, she can come with us

we’d have to discuss with Corbin first and then we’d figure it out. we appreciate you asking about Luna

- the yellow door team 🚪💛

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Oof- I can imagine how that went, as someone who tried to dye their hair purple when they were younger(that was the last time I tried anything new with my hair without adult supervision)

Moving on, you guys have a dog!? What's her name? And if you don't mind, may we see what she looks like? :3

not technically our dog, she’s Corbin’s dog. we’ve just accepted her as the team’s dog.

Corbin decided to name her Luna, mainly because of Luna Lovegood since he said Jude looked like Harry Potter if he didn’t have glasses when he tried dyeing his hair

Jude still gets sour when we bring it up, but at least he didn’t look like a fire engine (sorry Lina!)

here is a photo of Luna! Corbin sent it to us on the 2nd. the white thing near her neck is a snowman thing with magnets in the hands and feet that stick it to a fridge (certain that’s the only place he puts it)

happy I’m the only one bothered to be awake (currently 5:47am) to answer this! hopefully Lina doesn’t attempt to come for my lungs for bringing up her fire engine mishap :)

- Avery

[behind-the-yellow-door]

This is more of an off topic question but, what are y'alls pronouns?

not a problem that it’s off topic! we’re fine with answering any questions, no matter what the topic they’re asking about is.

Jude goes by He/Him

Lina goes by She/Her, but we do sometimes call her a gremlin because she makes sounds like one when she’s bored

Corbin goes by He/It, but we just use the It part most of the time because it’s funny to just say ‘It’s running around with the dog’. the dog in question is his, but she practically belongs to the whole team.

Avery(me) goes by They/Them!

how oddly fitting the one that goes by They/Them is the only one with dyed hair. it’s for a good reason though because Jude and Lina had immediate regrets when they tried dying their hair for the first (and last!) time :D

appreciate the question and that I got to be the one to answer!

- Avery

[behind-the-yellow-door]

When did you guys start exploring abandoned places? And what was your first exploration experience like?

first started around August six years ago. first experience was interesting to say the least, but we made sure staying safe was a top priority

- the yellow door team 🚪💛

[behind-the-yellow-door]

Do you plan on posting pictures of the places you visit here? And is there any kind of limit to what kind of places you can and cant explore?

we’re still discussing wether we should post pictures of where we go. all of us (Lina especially) want people to see the type of beauty some places have, even after they’ve been abandoned. we aren’t too sure about posting pictures of where we’ve gone in case anyone recognises where it is. so in short, posting pictures is a matter we’re currently going over. when we’ve made a decision, we’ll be sure to post the answer

for if we have limits, yes. we make sure that the places we go are going to be safe for us, so places that are falling apart or have bad history are going to be places we avoid. we’re only going places that we are sure are safe and that we can get to with little more than a car or a train. we can only explore places in the UK for now, but maybe we’ll go further in the future.

we appreciate the questions and have tried giving straight forward answers

Alex Hirsch himself has encouraged his fans to draw grunkle stan punching a nazi (many people happily did so)

[renniesauce]

I’m so unbelievably tired right now, but all nazis and any variant of anti-semitism has no right to enjoy anything ESPECIALLY not macaroni and cheese. No mac and cheese for nazis.

If you don't mind us asking, how did y'all meet?

we met during our first year of high school. I was having lunch when a friend of mine introduced me to Jude, and Lina was in one of his classes so that’s how we met her after a while.

met Avery in our third year, we were in the same class and we sat next to each other. introduced them to Jude and Lina at lunch and we just went on from there. Avery got sort of pulled in after we met because they’re the only one who understands editing and sound properly. which was helpful for the early videos we all made for fun.

we all just stuck together after a while, not like a big “we’re forming a team” moment, we just kept hanging out and messing with ideas which turned into this.

also, once you’ve explored an abandoned place or two together you’re sort of stuck with each other forever :)

we appreciate the ask
