Well, while the events in elevator game horror stories are not real in a literal sense, they can seem very real to those who believe in the supernatural. The power of suggestion and the atmosphere of an elevator can play tricks on people's minds. However, from a scientific perspective, it's all fictional. There are no hidden dimensions or ghosts that can be accessed through some elevator ritual.
Well, it could be that some people have had strange experiences in elevators and then over time, these experiences got exaggerated and turned into 'the elevator game stories'. But realistically, things like entering a different dimension just by using an elevator seem more like fictional ideas. Elevators are built for vertical transportation in buildings, not for supernatural experiences. So, in general, these stories are more in the realm of superstition and entertainment rather than real experiences.
A guy tried the elevator game. On the 'wrong' floor, the elevator doors opened to a pitch - black hallway. He heard whispers and something like dragging footsteps. He quickly closed the doors and got out at the next normal floor. He was so scared that he didn't use that elevator for months.
They're mostly superstitions. There's no scientific evidence to prove that the things in these stories actually happen. It's often just part of the horror and mystery culture.
Most Japanese elevator game stories are fictional. They are often part of urban legends that are passed around to scare people. There's no scientific evidence to suggest that the strange occurrences in these stories actually happen when following the so - called elevator game rules.
There was a group of friends who decided to try the elevator game as a dare. They entered the elevator at midnight. As they went through the sequence of floors, they heard eerie noises. When they finally reached the 'destination' floor, the elevator doors opened to a pitch - black corridor. One of the friends got so scared that they immediately pressed the ground floor button and the elevator took them back to safety. It was a spooky experience that they would never forget.
No. It's not real. It's just an urban legend. There's no scientific evidence to suggest that following those elevator button - pushing sequences can lead to any supernatural events.
No, not all of them are urban legends. Some people truly believe they have had these strange experiences while attempting the elevator game. There are too many consistent elements in the stories for them all to be made up. For instance, the feeling of a sudden temperature drop, or seeing abnormal things like distorted reflections in the elevator walls.
One real story is that a person entered the elevator alone at midnight. He followed the rules of the elevator game. When the elevator reached the supposed 'other world' floor, the lights flickered and there was a strange coldness. He quickly pressed the buttons to return to normal floors and ran out as soon as the doors opened. He said he felt like something was watching him during the whole process.
