''The Theater'' is a {{Creepypasta}} about a supposed videogame called, in fact, ''The Theater''. The videogame involves the character having to walk inside a theater; advancing is however impossible since the same level repeats itself in a seemingly infinite loop. Trying to continue might bring to unexpected consequences...

The story can be read [[https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/The_Theater here]]. There's also a sequel (whose canonicity is ambiguous due to the author of the original story being unknown), which can be read [[https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/The_True_Story_of_the_Theater here]].

Various game adaptations have been created by fans.
