The Polaroid is an object owned by Martin Ruber. It's power is unusual - if you take it to the site of the original Sunshine Motel, it shows you Room 10 exactly how it was at the time of the Event. The Polaroid itself looks undeveloped unless you do this, however, Martin Ruber experiences a vision from staring at the Polaroid for too long. It is unknown if this is an effect of the Polaroid or simply due to his severe state of dehydration and fatigue at the time.
