The Elevator Killer

 A while ago, I did a post on the creepy urban legend of THE ELEVATOR KILLER. 

Of all the urban legends that I have researched on so far, this one really got to me. 

Did it really happen? Could this actually happen? Is there any truth to this story? 

The fact that this doesn't contain any supernatural creatures is why this story is even more frightening. It could be real. Somebody could be watching us and we wouldn't know. The people we see on the street might not all be innocent. We never know people's true intentions, do we? 

And so yes, the ELEVATOR KILLER stuck in my mind because it had a possibility of actually happening. The part that is terrifying is the small span between two floors where the victim realizes she is trapped in the elevator and she can't control it or stop it from opening the doors. How many stairs could be between two floors, anyway? 

The fact that the victim isn't given enough time to save herself, is what makes this legend truly frightening. 

So, of course I wrote a story about it and gave it a twist ending. Check it out here:
