A rage room, also known as a smash room or anger room, is a room where people can vent their rage by destroying objects. Firms offer access to such rooms on a rental basis.[1][2]
Rage rooms may include living room and kitchen replicas with furnishings and items such as televisions, desks, small appliances and decorative items including earthenware and glassware. Clients may be allowed to bring their own possessions to destroy.[3]
Rage rooms have spread across the world, beginning in 2008.[4] They provide stress relief, with controversy over psychological effectiveness,[5] and safety risks, requiring the use of protective gear.[6]
