Feel raw emotion.
Emotion Booths are metal booths from The Stanley Parable Demonstration that the player can step into and feel real emotions while inside, representing the label that is written at the top of the front of the booth. As the Narrator states, they are meant to convert story into raw emotions to make the players feel touched.
Emotions Booths are the main focus of The Stanley Parable by Raphael from the jokey trailer made by Crows Crows Crows, serving the same purpose as in The Stanley Parable Demonstration to make the gameplay more feeling based, as Raphael wanted.
While inside the booths, audio and/or dialogue is played and text is displayed around the player with mostly humorous messages.
Information[]
The two main Emotion Booths which the Narrator displays is a red one to the left labeled "DISCOVERY", and a green one on the right labeled "DESPAIR". Once the player exits the Emotion Booths room, the Narrator's comment will differ depending on how many booths the player went through: neither, one (it doesn't matter which), or both of them.
The room is filled with more Emotion Booths surrounding the main two, where the unlit ones are simply labeled "EMOTION BOOTHS". To the left sits two lit booths labeled "HAPPINESS" and "COURAGE", to the right are two more lit booths labeled "CONFUSION" and "EMBARRASSMENT", and directly behind the "DISCOVERY" booth is a booth labeled "FEAR". All of the aforementioned booths aside from "DISCOVERY" and "DESPAIR" are closed and cannot be entered.
Secret Emotion Booth[]
In front of the "FEAR" booth is a gap between the other Emotion Booths where the player can crouch down and walk forward. They're greeted by the backside of a "WAITING ROOM" sign, which was encountered earlier in the Demonstration. Walking past the sign reveals an open Emotion Booth labeled "SECRET" lit up by a pink light within, that upon entry will close and start displaying disco lights and play the song "Who Likes to Party" by Kevin MacLeod.

| DISCOVERY | It was though and within the shame he carried that ocean breezed adrift. The fierceness of the tides, the inevitable collapse of their kingdoms, washed ashore, the rift of shame, martyrs devoid of a cause, ripping and tearing at the eternal seams. A vessel without a captain, carrying itself like plastic in the wind, hinting at a purpose that was truer in some distant memory.

| DESPAIR | Where did these cliffs go? These cracks that we stood upon... They shielded us from our own ignorance... spoke coddling words and wrapped our vulnerabilities in a woolen cloth, that so many times I've tried to set aflame. If I knew these comforts now, would their fibers be any more sensitive to the heat of my touch? Perhaps it was the cold I desired most of all. That empress to whom my flesh was always invisible... A hammock for the bones...

Trivia[]
- One of the Emotion Booths is named Confusion, which is probably meant to demonstrate the Confusion Ending.
- A few easter eggs in the Despair Booth:
- Robert Plutchik is mentioned, as he is the creator of the wheel of emotions.
- WHY?? is one of the emotions from the booth, hinting at the Raphael Parable trailer, which also does this with the fast scrolling list of side effects, where amongst the text "Are you pausing the video just to read this? Why??".
- LOOKING UP is placed on the ceiling, when looking up, which immediately becomes a side effect of the emotion booths.
