Loops are occurrences which only a ymbryne (female) can conduct, where a past date exists and repeats over and over, though ymbrynes experience it differently. Only peculiars can pass through it except in Hollow City where a hollowgast was in a loop.
Loops suspends the aging of their occupants, although they do not prevent it. Should a peculiar exit their loop into the present and remain there for two to three days, they will age forward however many years they have spent inside the loop, which, depending on how long that is, usually resulting in death. If the ymbryne, who created the loop is not there to reset it, the loop closes. According to Miss Peregrine, a peculiar must cross the entryway every so often to reset the loop.
In America, with the absence of ymbrynes, Demi-ymbrynes and Loop-keepers maintain loops and keep them going.
Some loops don't allow outsiders and only have one type of peculiar living together. They will chase out outsiders and don't trust anybody but peculiars like them.
Loops
There are five types of loops: workable loops, closed loops, punishment loops, tourist loops and pocket loops.
Workable Loops
Closed Loops
- Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children
- Miss Raven's Loop
- Miss Wren's old Loop
- Miss Thrush's Loop
- Abaton (the Library of Souls)
Punishment Loops
Tourist Loops
Tourist loops are loops that used to be found all across peculiardom placed strategically at times and locations of historical import. They made up a sort of Grand Tour that was once considered an essential part of any well-bred peculiar’s education. This was many years ago, when it was still relatively safe to travel abroad.
Pocket Loops
A smaller than average loop that encases a smaller area, such as a single house, that only requires resetting once or twice a month.

Rules
Partitionment of ability is discouraged under the ymbyrnic codes, because it can promote clannish thinking and unnecessary conflict. It is expressly forbidden to have closed loops, in which one type of peculiar is allowed to live and all others are banned.
