It is everchanging in that the places it connects are, for the most part, not stable. "Traversing" the Oceanview Motel requires doing certain rituals in order to find the exit.
WB: Ashtray Maze (Control): The Ashtray Maze is a location within the Oldest House (the setting of Control) that is seemingly infinite and takes up no set amount of space. It is constantly changing and has no exit unless you have control of a certain object that allows you to traverse it.
WB: The Threshold Kids (Control): The Threshold Kids is an educational TV show featuring puppets that is supposed to teach people about paranatural forces.
