In this Scary Tuesday, we are gonna get a bit mystic and playful, and we are gonna tell
you about the Elevator Game.
A ritual of a korean origin that takes you to an unknown dimension to contact spirits.
If you are the kind of person that has always felt like exploring other dimensions, this
is your challenge.
You only need to go through a simple procedure to move to a different world, completely dark
and spooky.
The requirements you need to meet this game are quite simple, specially if you live in
a city - when you live in the countryside, it gets a bit more difficult.
The thing is, you need to be inside a building with an elevator, at least 10 floors high.
It’s important that you are alone in the elevator, and it’s better if you try it
when there is not many people passing by, so you don’t have neighbors calling the
elevator - if this happens, you have yo start over again!
If you are brave enough to play, we recommend that you grab some paper and a pencil to make
notes - the steps you need to go through are a bit confusing.
The first thing you gotta do to try and get to the other dimension is get on the elevator
on the first floor.
Then, you have to press the button for the 4th floor.
Once the elevator gets there, you have to press the button for the second floor and
so go back down.
When you are on the second floor, you have to press the button for the 6th floor, you
have to wait, and then when you get to the 6th floor you press the 2nd floor button again.
Once there, you have to press the button for the 10th floor.
And when you reach the 10th floor… press the button for the 5th floor.
Right when we reach the 5th floor, a mysterious woman can get on the elevator and try to draw
our attention.
According to the rules of the game, we have to ignore her, completely.
She is an spirit trying to disorientate the player and take him to a terrible dimension.
Now, you have to press floor number 1.
If at that point, the elevator decides to take you to the 10th floor, get ready - that
means you’ve done it all right.
When the doors of the 10th floor open, you can either get off the elevator or stay inside.
If you chose to get out of it and the woman had gone in on the 5th floor, she’s gonna
ask you - which floor are you going to?
Don’t answer.
Don’t look at her.
You’ll know you made it to the Other World thanks to a sign, and only one sign: the only
person there will be you.
You’ll be in the same building, but in a different dimension.
Not all dimensions are the same, you can make it to a peaceful one but also to a very dangerous
one.
All the lights will be off, and the only thing you’ll be able to see through the windows
is a red cross in the distance.
Some people say electronic devices such as cell phones or cameras dont work in the Other
World, some others say they do.
It’s not really clear.
In order to go back to the right dimension, if you stay inside the elevator, the only
thing you have to do is press the button for the first floor.
If it doesn’t work, keep pressing until it does work.
When the elevator reaches the 1st floor, you have to leave as soon as the doors open.
No looking back, no talking.
If you chose to gett off the elevator on the 10th floor, you have to repeat exactly the
same process again, from that same elevator.
Only that, instead of taking you to the 10th floor, the elevator will leave you on the
1st floor.
Seems simple, huh?
The only bad thing is if you get tired of exploring, or if you happen to be in danger
and need to run away, as we have just told you you need to take the same steps again,
that means, starting from the 1st floor.
So you have to go down the stairs of the other dimension, down the stairs 10 floors.
Sounds more complicated now, doesnt it?
Those who have played this ritual game recommend not doing it under any circumstances - fears
take control of you, as a consequence you start getting lost and the fear of not being
able to go back to your dimension gets really intense.
It’s important to stay focused.
If you remember Elisa Lam’s video, one of the hypothesis behind her weird behavior and
her disappearance was that she was trying to take part in this game.
What do you think?
Would you dare to go to a different dimension?
Are you gonna try?
