The Elevator Game
Nov. 21st, 2015 03:35 pmThe so-called most dangerous game in the world; A game that claims to take you to another dimension. The game is quite simple. You need an elevator at least ten stories high.
You enter the elevator, which must be empty, on the first floor.
Then, you press the fourth floor button.
Upon reaching the fourth floor, you press the second floor.
On the second floor, you press the button for the sixth.
When you get to the sixth floor, you press the button for the second floor again.
Upon arriving at the second floor, press the button for the tenth.
When you reach the tenth, you press five.
Now, when the door opens on the fifth floor, a young woman may enter the elevator. You must not look at, or speak to her. At this point, you press the first floor button.
If the elevator starts moving up to the tenth floor, instead of down to the first, you may keep going. If, however, the elevator starts moving down, get out as soon as possible, and under no condition look back at, or speak to the woman.
If you reach the tenth floor, however, you may choose to stay in the elevator or get out.
If you get out at this point, the young woman will ask you where you're going. Do not answer or look at her.
You'll know you've reached the other world if you're alone. At some point, you'll pass out, and when you wake up, you'll be somewhere else. There are other very specific visual cues, something about seeing a red cross in the distance, which would let you know that you're still in the other world.
Getting back is complicated. You must press the same buttons in reverse. But getting back doesn't appear to be guaranteed. For example, if the elevator ends up ascending out of sequence, You must find a way to stop the elevator before it reaches the tenth floor. Otherwise, you might be lost. Forever.
Alternately, if you find yourself back on the first floor, check your surroundings very carefully. If anything seems even the slightest bit off, do not exit the elevator, for this is not your world.
