Seriously, go to [[http://timecube.com the site]] and look over the formatting. Seem earily familiar? Now try actually ''reading'' it[[note]]Not too much, stop, STOP![[/note]] and notice the effect it begins to have on your mortal sanity. And the site's math and physics defy rational explanation, just like the house's. Gene Ray is either a fabrication or simply the first victim to succumb.

* This actually makes more sense than you think. Johnny can't find the [[RetGone house]] because he's from after the anime's events.

[[WMG:The House retroactively makes extensive enough records about itself fictional.]]
And in extension, it changes its own shape.

Originally, the House was a real place visited by Navidson, until he created the Navidson Record. Afterward, it erased any evidence of itself from reality, and the House itself became the film.

Then, Zampano wrote his essay (with egregious summarization), which caused the film and Navidson to disappear from reality, even striking Zampano blind.
Then, the House were those papers.

When Johnny compiled and published Zampano's papers, Zampano and everything detailed by Johnny vanished from reality. And then what did the House become?

A paper labyrinth. A [[TitleDrop House of Leaves]].

That's why Danielewski doesn't want to make a film adaptation.
