CUSTOMS

How To Play the Elevator Game:

1. Enter the elevator alone.
2. Proceed to the fourth floor.
3. Descend to the second floor.
4. Proceed to the sixth floor.
5. Return to the second floor.
6. Ascend to the tenth floor.
7. Return to the fifth floor.
A young woman may enter the elevator here. Do not look at her or talk to her, whatever she does.
8. Press the button for the first floor.
– If the elevator descends to the first floor, exit immediately. Do not look back or speak.
– If the elevator starts to go up, it’s going to the Other World. No one will be on the tenth floor. The power might be out. The sky will be darker, with a red cross in the distance...

But what happens after you exit the elevator?
