Going down: The Elevator Game, liminal spaces, Backrooms & the Elisa Lam case...
from Eavesdroppin'
This week, Geordie & Michelle. veer into the eerie world of liminal spaces, alternate realities and the unsettling idea that there might be places that exist just beyond our own...Have you heard of the Elevator Game? What began as a South Korean urban legend evolved into an internet paranormal ritual, spreading through horror forums and social media. The premise is simple but unsettling: enter an elevator in a building with at least ten floors, follow a precise sequence of button presses and you may find yourself transported to another dimension. That legend leads to one of the internet's most enduring mysteries: the case of Elisa Lam. What was she doing in that hotel elevator? Could her strange behavior have anything to do with the Elevator Game—or is that simply a modern myth layered onto a tragic real-life event? Geordie also explores the unsettling mythology of Backrooms, the psychology of liminal spaces and why these strange in-between places continue to haunt our imaginations. So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat dogs that eat poop, The Man With The Twisted Lip, Hanson and more, only on Eavesdroppin’. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!*Disclaimer: We don’t claim to have any factual info about anything ever and our opinions are just opinions not fact, sooorrrryyy!
