The Lost Room is a 2006 supernatural television miniseries that aired on the Syfy Channel in the United States. The series revolves around the titular room and some of the everyday items from that room which possess unusual powers. The show's protagonist, Joe Miller, is searching for these objects to rescue his daughter, Anna, who has disappeared inside the Room. Once a typical room at a 1960s motel along U.S. Route 66, the Lost Room has existed outside of normal time and space since 1961, when what is referred to only as "the Event" took place.
The Room is the now nonexistent Room 10 at the abandoned Sunshine Motel outside Gallup, New Mexico. At 1:20:44 p.m. on May 4, 1961, something happened at the site of the Room that erased it and all its contents. This is referred to as "the Event" or "the Incident", and is thought to be the reason for the unusual properties of the Room and the Objects from within it. At the time of the Event, the motel was in serviceable condition, but after the event nobody remembers that a tenth room ever existed. One of the Objects, the undeveloped Polaroid picture, allows a person to view the tenth room as it was at the time of the Event by standing at its now vacant location at the Sunshine Motel ruins.
The Room can be accessed only by the person who has the Key. The Key will open any hinged door with a pin tumbler lock anywhere in the world, turning that door into a portal accessing the Room regardless of where it would normally open into. As Joe Miller sees on the surveillance tape, when a door is opened using the key, it appears closed if viewed from the other side of that door. When exiting the Room, its door opens not necessarily to the original place of entry, but to any room the holder of the Key has in mind, or to a random room if the user does not focus. To reach a specific room the user must have a clear picture of the room's door and the area around it. The "Lost" Room thus serves as a means of instant travel between similar doors anywhere on Earth. Hinged doors with types of locks other than a tumbler lock or with no lock at all, sliding doors and rotating doors cannot be used to access the Room. The door used does not have to be installed in a wall and can be a smaller prop door or a freestanding doorway; the only important elements are the lock and that it be a hinged door.
Any time the door is closed with the key outside the room, the Room "resets": everything that is not an Object disappears, including people. Multiple people can enter the room at once, but they must exit the room when the Key does. When the Room resets, any Objects in the Room will return to their original position at the time of the Event. A benefit of this is that an Object enclosed within something else, such as a safe, may be retrieved by leaving it inside and resetting the room. This can also be used to distinguish real Objects from fakes, since fakes will disappear.
Objects, when outside the Room, possess special powers and are indestructible. When inside the Room, Objects lose their special properties and can be destroyed. According to the Occupant, a new Object will take the destroyed Object's place, a phenomenon he refers to as the Law of Conservation of Objects. The Occupant states that there are many Rooms, and so any non-Object left in the Room is not erased, but exists in a different instance of the Room. The reset, in turn, represents a confluence of these Rooms, allowing the Occupant (the only Object with consciousness) to retrieve things lost during a reset, provided he has a clear idea of what he wishes to retrieve.
The Event is a shorthand term given to the moment in time that the Lost Room was created. It occurred at 1:20:44 p.m. on May 4, 1961, and erased the room and all of its contents from history. The reason behind this and the ultimate purpose of the Objects is unknown, though two primary hypotheses have been postulated. Even the man occupying the room at the time of the event doesn't seem to know what happened, so the truth remains a mystery. Both hypotheses essentially lead to the same conclusion, but attribute the event to different causes.
Another (though not necessarily contradictory) view of the phenomenon suggests that reality was somehow shattered at the location of the Room, thus separating it and everything in it from time and giving its contents metaphysical abilities. Should the items be collected and returned to the room by an individual, that person would then have complete control over reality. This theory works under the assumption that the one gathering the objects has the knowledge to utilize them properly. Since the Objects are just considered tools, they would do no good if the user were unaware of their paranormal functions.
The Objects are powerful artifacts and consist of roughly 100 everyday items one would expect to find in an occupied motel room in the 1960s. They are indestructible (except when inside the Room) and possess various other-worldly powers when taken outside the Lost Room, but do not work within the Room itself. According to the Occupant (Eddie McCleister), when an object is destroyed within the room, another object takes its place. Whether the new object takes the former's properties partially or totally is unknown. Various characters repeatedly put forth the opinion that, over time, Objects lead to something akin to bad karma or bad luck for their owners. All of the items (including the occupant) attract one another, wanting to come together. The Occupant states that the objects are aware of each other, constantly sending out pings to each other and that for a living mind this is torture; the Occupant was eventually found when a search of the recorded history of other Objects revealed a small circular area where the Objects had never been detected, representing the area where the Occupant had resided for years.
Just watched this mini-series. No one is addressing the statement made by The Occupant that if Joe Miller killed him in the room that Joe Miller would become the replacement object. It was an excellent show and I wish it would be picked up for an ongoing series.
I just kept thinking that to come to a conclusion every object needed to be put in the room and then when it reset the room would be reset everything would be in its rightful place. Then we would discover the supernatural nature of the owner of all the objects.
The most important item in the show is the key. When used on any door in the world it opens a doorway directly into the number 10 room of the Sunshine motel, New Mexico. Once inside the motel room, you can once again use the key to open the door to any other room in the world. As such they cannot get outside the room.
The characters are routinely returning to the motel room throughout the story. It's eventually revealed that all the objects are originally from the hotel room. The theory presented is that something happened in that room which broke the laws of physics. This event also removed the room and all of it's contents from history, as when the characters find the motel from the outside, it has only ever had 9 rooms.
Guys; Need a huge favor from the community. Can anyone help me get my Kitchen, Mudroom, and butler panty Room Definition back?? The room difinition is gone. (it's on the left side of 1st floor plan attached) Lost floor. All cabinets fell to the basement.
I've been trying to fix it for days, by disconnecting and reconnecting walls. All walls have "room definition". I believe I screwed it up when trying to align walls; manually, as we are using IFC Foundation and Cheif puts the wall over the foam. I also attempted a step foundation (walk-out) and that might have screwed it up.
Your Garage is not a 'room' either.
I sometimes build walls across rooms to help figure out where the problem is. If the room forms on one side or the other of the new wall, then you know the side that's not turning into a room has the problem. Doing that with your plan I found that it seems that your exterior wall along these rooms has the problem. Also see how the 'exterior room' jogs into the building along that wall.

My wife had this happen last week. She went to the guest relations desk and they made her a new one. A few hours later we found the original one. I put it away for safekeeping and she just used the new one. That is until......we went to get off the ship in Nassau. Apparently guest relation had made a new key to get her in the room, but it was not valid to get off the ship??????:confused:
Did you wife let them know that she lost the old one? Or just that she needed a new key? We have often gotten additional keys from guest services for our kids or others we are traveling with, that could only open the cabin door. Not doubting that they did it wrong, betting they most likely did, but good to have all the details.
On my last Anthem cruise, I overheard somebody say she left everyone's key cards in their room; didn't know they would need again. The husband inquired with staff and he said they could get off without them. They just needed to show ID (as somebody else commented, they were manually checked off.) Just wondering if it's a ship by ship thing.
The protagonist of The Lost Room, Joe Miller (Peter Krause), stumbles quite by accident into the world of dangerous objects and equally dangerous people seeking to possess them. While conducting an investigation into a strange crime, Joe comes into contact with an old motel key. He soon discovers that, when put into any door, the key will magically open into an empty motel room. Upon exiting, the motel room door will open into any door the user desires. Importantly, if anything is left in the room once the door is closed, reopening the door will cause the items left inside to disappear. While he is initially amazed and intrigued by this powerful item, he quickly realizes the danger of its use when men desiring the key kidnap his daughter Anna (Elle Fanning). In the ensuing struggle, the door closes with Anna inside and she disappears. Joe spends the rest of the series doing everything he can to find a way to rescue his daughter.
