I saw the rooms warping once. It wasn't so strange, just like a "tunnel" vision or something, it warped if you weren't looking directly. Also I felt some objects larger than they are, and some others smaller. And I saw many textures in walls and such. I already see them, but the effect was much more magnified. I think it's called Moiré patterns. Like the yellow lines of this shirt:

And no, I wasn't taking any drugs XD
I was just extremely tired.

Reading the Stand, by Stephen King.

150000 pages?! o_o
Wasn't the Guinness record for a novel about 4500 pages?

Wiki says that polish version of that book had 1100 pages. Not 110000.

About that room warping thing.
One time when I was a kid I had a really strong flu once which, aside from other symptoms, made me see walls, like, move around. The surroundings also shifted from normal to big and then to really small all the time. I thought I was going to get crushed between the walls that were moving towards me this one time, that was scary, lol.

Was it like the presence of something about to crush you or just the fear o f the walls closing in?
