Original subtitles

I told you I was gonna do this.

I wish you were here with me, but...

I'm gonna do this.

Five. Moment of truth.

Don't look. Don't look.

Come on. Shut. Come on. Shut, Come on! Shut!

Okay. Back to one.

Oh, God! It's going up!

What?

Come on. Come on, come on, come on!

Come on, come on!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Where are you going?

Welcome to "Nightmare on Dare Street."

I'm your host, Kris Russo!

And with me as always, Chloe Young.

M-M-M-Matty Davis!

And Izzy Simpson!

Izzy, we good? Cool!

Chloe, want to tell the folks at home all about today's game?

Today, we're playing Three Kings,

which when played right will allow us

to talk to the spirit of a dead king

with the help of these mirrors.

Uh-huh. Talking to a dead king. Wow.

Want to tell the folks at home how we're gonna throw

some spice on this bad boy?

By playing in the abandoned home of a serial killer,

Lester Digby King.

Ohh! See what we did there? Huh?!

Matty, what do you got going on over there?

I'm making a salt protection circle.

never talk to the dead without one.

Is that the salt from the office break room?

Another week of flavorless lunches.

Yeah, well, when shit goes south

and we're all huddled inside here,

you won't be complaining about bland fries.

Could you make the salt circle just a little bit bigger

so we don't have to huddle quite so close together?

Don't forget this episode is sponsored

by Something Green vegetable drink.

Mwah!

Okay. Who can tell me what's wrong here?

Your shirt has three coffee stains on it?

No. On the screen. On the screen.

Kris looks like a tool.

- Eat it, Izz. - Ugh.

When we mention the sponsor, we need to see their product.

It's there.

It's, uh-- It's not there.

Yeah.

See? It's right there.

In all fairness, that is an iced latte in there.

Regardless, Kris, you need to be holding it.

Kris can't have my iced latte.

I--

Are we gonna start getting reimbursed for travel expenses?

- Travel expenses? - I take the bus here.

Yeah, if Matty gets reimbursed for bus fare,

then I should at least get reimbursed for gas.

We don't have the budget for that.

What about reimbursing us for food and drink on set?

Not in the budget, but feel free to grab

one of the Something Green samples.

Ew! That stuff tastes like a moldy carrot

had angry sex with a lawnmower.

True, but when we're on air, let's use their slogan--

"Tastes like healthy!"

Okay. Look.

Dude. Again?

Another one of your boring lectures?

I bet it is.

Guys, just let him talk.

Thank you, Izzy.

I've heard enough already.

Yeah. Me too.

Everyone, just listen!

When we were in high school,

we started this show for fun, right?

But we also said our main goal was to do this professionally.

Matty, your parents started charging you rent, right?

The day I graduated.

Chloe, your mom said go to college or get a job.

Kris, you really want to go to dental school

like your dad wants?

I just threw up thinking about Kris' hands in my mouth.

And, Izzy...

I-I actually don't know what your parents want you to do.

Oh, my parents are wonderful and supportive people

who encourage me to follow my dreams.

But you just moved in to your own place, right?

Yep. It was cool at first.

Turns out adulting sucks.

So can we all just agree to please

make the sponsors really happy

so we don't have to stop doing the show?

- Yeah. - Yeah, sure.

Okay. Great.

Next on the agenda, our new team member.

- What?! - Are you kidding me?

You can't reimburse us for food and drink,

but we're getting a new employee?

He's not on-camera talent, is he?

No, he's not on-camera talent and he's not being paid.

He's a fan of the show who volunteered to help us out,

so I figured since he's a local--

So, like, an intern?

Technically, no. He's still in high school.

- So it's more like a-- We can get interns?

Game changer! I want an intern!

What do you know about this guy?

He e-mailed us wanting to help.

Are you sure he's not some kind of serial killer

who wants to chop off our fingers

and wear them as a necklace?

There's a lot of crazy out there.

And in here apparently.

He's not a serial killer, Matty.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Is he the weird-looking dude that I saw on the way in here?

It's okay. He's definitely not on-camera material.

I'm just gonna bring him in.

Hey, uh, Ryan, could you come on in, please?

- Yeah. - Thanks.

Okay. Uh...

Everyone, this is Ryan Keaton.

Hey, guys. It is so awesome to be here.

So, can he fetch stuff for us?

Ryan's here to help us with whatever we need.

- What about-- - As long as it's appropriate.

- And what about-- - And legal.

Welcome aboard, Ryan!

Okay, why don't you go grab yourself a seat

and we can keep this thing moving?

- Thanks. - Okay, so...

Next episode. Any ideas?

Anything at all?

Feel free to just jump out with them.

There's a haunted hotel in Sendai, Japan.

We could play Hitori Kakurenbo there.

Uh, we don't have a budget for overseas travel

or any travel outside of the tri-state area for that matter.

Doesn't give us lots of options.

Well, how about we play the bath game at my place?

Doesn't that game involve us all getting in a bathtub?

I mean...

- Gross. - Hm.

Wha--

Yeah. Ryan.

What about the Elevator Game?

You guys haven't played that one yet.

That's the one where you ride an elevator

to unlock a gateway and summon some spirit?

- That's the one. - The Fifth-Floor Woman.

Supposedly, she opens a portal to the world of the dead.

But if you don't do the game right,

she rips you apart, right?

Kris pitched that one last year.

Yeah, and we decided that no one wants to watch us ride

an elevator for 20 minutes.

Sounds like an easy shoot, though.

You can play it anywhere.

As long as the building has at least 10 floors.

Well, that means this one's out.

Well, I don't think finding a building

- is going to be a problem. - But that's not our show.

We play scary games in scary places.

So... does anyone know of any haunted elevators?

- But, uh-- - Local haunted elevators.

Right.

There is one.

A building just a few blocks from here, I think.

I read a story online about a girl who went missing there.

They say she went missing playing the game.

"They" say?

Chat groups and Reddit posts.

So, unsubstantiated online rumors.

Isn't that all the Internet is?

Well, I also know that she was local.

From the suburbs, at least.

In high school at the time. A freshman.

The police have her as a runaway, but like I said,

rumor is it was the Fifth-Floor Woman.

Got a name?

Becki... something.

Can we make this happen?

We can make anything happen.

Question is, do people want to see us ride

an elevator for 20 minutes?

Yeah. I'm already bored.

So is that a no?

Anybody?

Okay. Uh, great suggestion, Ryan. Maybe next time.

- Uh...

Oh, no! That's Mr. Klein. I gotta take this!

- Who's Mr. Klein? - He's the sponsor!

Hi, Mr. Klein! I was just about to call you.

Yeah, no, I-- I totally understand.

We will make sure it is prominently featured

in the next episode.

Come on. I'll show you around.

This is the office. These are our desks.

That's our lavish studio.

A fully stocked break room.

And over there is Kevin's office.

This concludes your orientation. Welcome aboard.

Ooh.

That's a lot to remember.

Oh! Almost forgot!

Wait till I show you the wellness area.

This is... nice.

Did someone move my doll or did it do that on its own?!

Sometimes you need an escape.

Thanks for helping us out.

Here. Let me see your phone.

In case you have any questions...

Here's my info.

Thanks.

This doesn't sound good. What's going on?

I think we just lost our sponsor.

Uh-huh. And I hear-- It's hard to hear you

when you're using that tone of voice.

Hello? Hello?!

Um, so, I just got my ass handed to me

by our very irate sponsor.

If Mr. Klein doesn't get a new episode

by the end of the week, he's pulling our funding.

A completed show in a week? That's impossible.

Well, if we don't, we lose everything

that we've worked for, so, uh, we're gonna have to.

I need at least a week to edit,

not to mention the time to film it.

Okay, well, uh-- We'll do Ryan's suggestion.

The, uh-- The elevator thing.

We can shoot it. It's one location.

It's not a lot of moving around.

We can preload the graphics to save time.

And-- And we'll shoot it tonight.

- What?! - Tonight?

- There's no way! - The building you mentioned,

it's an office building, right?

Um, yeah, yeah.

Okay, so office building on a Saturday evening

- is gonna be a ghost town. Well put.

Still doesn't get us around the issue

of going up and down in a box for 20 minutes.

Uh, we have to-- You know, no.

We need to do this.

Yeah, still don't know

how you're gonna make all that interesting.

Just sayin'.

Is that a challenge?

Is he challenging us?

I think he is.

- I love a challenge. - Me too.

I think we should do it.

Out of spite for doubting our brilliance.

Best reason ever.

That sounds good to me.

Um, great. Let's, uh-- Okay. Let's get a move on. Yeah?

I'll start researching the history.

- I'll look up the rules. - Send those to me

when you get them, and I'll preload the graphics.

- Fuck yeah. - Okay.

Uh, what can I do?

You can help me with the gear.

Okay.

Who's ready to get arrested for trespassing?

If someone stops us, just pretend we're lost tourists.

Hm. Lost with several bags of video equipment.

- I can do an accent! - Please, don't.

Hey. Hey. Okay. Take this shirt.

Did you run all the way here?

Yeah. Mr. Klein sent these over.

He, uh-- He wants you guys to wear these.

I don't do green.

Guys! I am so rocking this look.

Everyone wearing the same thing?

We're not worried about losing our credibility?

I don't look credible?

Ugh! Can we just have Izzy wear it?

Okay. Fine. Just make sure that she's in the shot, okay?

I'm, uh-- I'm gonna go get a coffee.

Does anyone want a coffee?

- Iced latte! - Uh-huh!

Okay. Let's do this.

This shot would look really badass from behind.

- Do you want to shoot it? - Nah, I'll get it later.

- Set it down here. - Okay.

Kris, don't forget your body mic this time.

And don't ask me to help you hide the cord.

Fool me once. Okay. Grab that bag and follow me.

Okay.

After you.

There's not enough room for lighting in here,

but we'll make it work.

A little help?

- Yeah, I got it. - My hero.

- Mnh!

We are up and running, folks.

You run the entire show off that little tablet?

Little tablet? This is the mobile command center.

I could launch missiles from this "little tablet."

You're just lucky I'm a lady of peace.

Okay.

Am I interrupting?

No, no, I'm just going over my notes

on our Fifth-Floor Woman.

Find anything good?

Uh, so far, I found out that she is a vengeful ghost

that haunts some place called the Red Worlds.

Oh, and she likes ripping people apart.

- She sounds great. - A total blast.

You better turn on in the next five seconds,

or I'm gonna throw you across the room!

Is it always like this?

The looming specter of potential paranormal doom

accompanied by total financial collapse?

Yeah, that's normal for us.

Well, you all seem to handle it pretty well.

Uh! Oh! The plug fell out.

Oh, we're total pros.

So, what got you into this ghost-game stuff?

Typical answer--

it's fun, exciting, dangerous.

I get to work with all my friends.

But the honest, boring answer--

I'm a total research nerd.

I like finding out things that no one knows about.

Did you know they started pumping music into elevators

in the 1920s as a way to calm first-time passengers?

I did not know that.

Or that we wouldn't even have elevators

if Elisha Otis hadn't invented the safety break.

And without that, there'd be no modern elevators,

and without modern elevators, there'd be no skyscrapers,

and without skyscrapers, there'd be no modern cities.

I know all that,

but I know fuck-all about the Fifth-Floor Woman.

And that is what I really want to know about.

There's got to be something to the story, right?

I hope so.

Oh, and Elisha Otis also invented

the rotating bread oven.

Ohh. I do love freshly baked bread.

- Oh, it's the best, right? - Yeah.

Okay! Are we all set?

That doesn't look like an iced latte.

Alright. Come on. I'll show you how to film these fools.

Grab the camera and put your hand through here.

Underneath. Yep. And then flip out the monitor.

Okay. And you're gonna want to have that facing you.

And the power button. Come on, come on, come on.

Everyone in front of the elevator for the intro, please.

- Okay. Yep. - Yeah.

Yep. Just get a wider frame.

Okay. Action!

Oh, uh, Kris, remember-- before you tell them

to smash that subscribe button,

it's been moved to the lower right-hand corner, okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got you.

Alright. Action for real this time!

Welcome to "Nightmare on Dare Street."

I'm your host, Kris.

And today, we'll be tackling a creepy

little Internet legend called...

the Elevator Game.

Now, for years we've pondered,

"Is there more to life than this?"

Well, tonight, the Elevator Game

might finally answer that question.

But with the Elevator Game,

we aren't just summoning spirits.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

We are opening a door to a cursed, ghostly realm...

with the help, of course, from the Fifth-Floor Woman.

Chloe?

She lives in her own private land of the dead

they call "The Red World."

But if we play the game just right,

she'll open the door and let us inside.

Matty?

Uh, okay. So, here's how you play.

You go to each floor in the following order--

4, 2, 6, 2, 10, 5, and 1.

Okay. Sounds simple enough.

But wait. There's more.

When you reach the fifth floor,

the doors will open and a woman will step on.

She'll step on and stand behind you.

Now, you can't turn to look at her and you can't speak to her.

Remember, when you reach the fifth floor,

you must keep your eyes closed and your mouth shut.

Whatever you do, don't turn around and don't look at her.

But... what happens if we do look?

Well, Kris, if you see her or talk to her,

- she will rip you apart. Get them both in frame.

If you look back before finishing the game,

she will curse you with her presence.

She will haunt you like a waking nightmare.

And when she's had her fill, she will shred you to pieces,

both body and soul.

- Oh, shit! - Oh. Okay.

Um...

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Spread it out. Thank you.

Use the promo code DareStreet to get 10% off your first order!

Ooh! Taste the Healthy!

Alright. You guys ready to see the other side or what?

- Ready! - I'm not quite sure yet.

- Overruled, Matty. - Okay.

Okay. Step one, enter the elevator.

I thought you said the building was empty.

Elevator small talk? How about that weather?

You see that game last night?

I wonder if life is just an endless loop

of creation and destruction and hell is the realization

that we're powerless to alter the course?

- Oh, good. It's here. - Okay.

Okay. First, we go to four.

- Wait. Four first? - First is four.

- No, first floor is-- - No, fourth floor is first.

- Press four. - I was wrong.

This is hell.

See you on the other side.

Well, that sounds up to code.

Okay.

Should we mention that girl?

- Who? - That Becki girl.

You know, the one that disappeared?

Oh. Yeah, sure. Knock yourself out.

Okay.

Next stop is two.

Now, what makes today's episode even more special

is that we have evidence the game actually works.

Her name was Becki, and supposedly

she is the Fifth-Floor Woman's latest victim.

And according to our investigation,

this is the very elevator she vanished from.

Go to www.nightmare-on- dare-street.com.

There, you'll find all the details we've compiled--

And while you're there, you may as well go ahead

and smash the subscribe button

on the lower left-hand corner of your screen.

Right! Right-hand corner!

I'll fix it in post.

Sex anyone?

You are so witty.

You doing alright?

Yeah, I'm fine. Why?

Nothing. You're just usually a lot more chatty on camera.

Hm.

I don't know.

I feel like I've talked enough this episode, honestly.

Since when have you ever thought that?

Let's just finish this, okay?

Yeah.

And now back to two!

Again.

No, no, no! Don't glitch out on me!

Come on, Izz.

Nothing to worry about. Just some interference.

Well, the second floor looks the exact same,

just as it did a few minutes ago.

Hello?! Anybody there?!

Are you trying to get someone to call the cops on us?

Relax! I'm just trying to stir up some ghosts!

No sign of the Fifth-Floor Woman yet.

Probably because we haven't gone to the fifth floor yet.

- Alright.

Whoa. Yes! Yes! That's exactly what I'm talking about!

Holy...

I-I'm gonna take the stairs.

What? No, no, no.

Everyone exits the elevator when the game ends or else.

Or else what?

Curses. Soul shredding. And we lose the episode.

Ugh! Nothing to worry about.

See? All good.

Well...

it's time for the moment of truth.

Finally time to head to the fifth floor!

Oh!

A woman will enter.

Do not look at her and do not talk to her

because she is not human and she will rip you apart.

Shredding your body and soul.

Ohh!

Anyone else feel like taking a peek?

Dude, don't you fricking dare.

Oh, come on, dude. Just a tiny peek. Huh?

It's looking better.

- So, like, does this-- - Don't touch it, man.

- Trust me. You-- - Okay.

Izzy's a little particular about things like that.

He'll learn.

That looks good. That looks really good.

- As long as it stays stable. - Yeah, I think it--

- Izz, security. - Hide, hide, hide, hide, hide!

- Hide where? - In the corner!

Everything's secure outside...

- Oh, no. My baby. - No!

Okay. Yeah. - Shhhh.

Quiet.

- I wanna look. - Stop it, Kris.

Dude, it's gonna make a much more interesting episode

- than this. - I'm gonna push the stop button

- right now, I swear to God. - Okay, both of you, stop!

Matty, he's just joking, okay?

Kris, you're just joking. Say it.

I'm just joking, Matty. I won't look.

- Swear it. - Okay, yeah, whatever, fine.

I'm not gonna look, I swear.

Okay. Eyes closed.

What's he doing?

He's talking on his phone.

Okay. Final step, press one.

If we did this right, the elevator should go up to ten.

Oh, we're going up! No frickin' way!

What's he doing now?

Oh, he's gone, he's gone.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no!

What? What, what, what?

- I don't know what's happening. - Why is there no picture?

I don't know. I'm trying to figure that out!

Dude, that's not funny. You hit ten, didn't you?

Chill. I didn't do anything, Matty.

Oh, God. She's pulling us up.

It's probably just some kind of maintenance code.

No, no. We have to get off! We have to get off!

- No, Matty! No! - Stop right here!

- No!

- Why are we stopping on nine? - Something's not right here.

Well, maybe it's the Fifth-Floor Woman.

No, tell him not to sign the paper... work.

How the fuck did you get in here?

Um...

The file's on me.

- No, no, no, no, I don't care.

She can keep the kids. I get the house.

Yeah, well, you can tell her that 50%...

- Solid excitement. - Don't start, Kris.

- So are we done? - How'd the footage look?

- About that... What happened?

I don't know. Thick elevator walls.

Lead pipes. Some weird interference.

Meaning?

Meaning we lost a healthy chunk of footage.

What?! Well, how much did we lose?

- Ask Izzy. - How much did we lose?

- I'd say the last half. - Great.

We wouldn't have had to rush if you would've--

So, what do we do now?

Chloe, don't.

- Did you hear that? Hear what?

Uh... nothing. Just-- It was nothing.

Do it again!

One more time.

But...

put all the gear in the elevator this time.

Yeah. No can do. I gotta get home.

- Yeah. Me too. - Mm-hmm.

Do we have any usable footage?

I'll head back to the office and check.

I might be able to scrape something together.

- Okay. I'll go with you. - Is it worth it?

Unless you have anything else that you can throw together--

Kris is just afraid that this is all gonna tie him back to Becki.

Uh...

The girl who went missing.

Kris knows her. Right?

She was a huge fan of the show, and then you hooked up with her.

How do you know that?

I'm her brother.

I found your DMs on her laptop.

She told you how much she loved the show.

And then you had sex with her.

A week later, she went missing.

You know, she was just a freshman.

Is this true?

Come on, man.

I was in high school then.

High school was a month ago!

You hooked up with Becki and then you ghosted her...

but not before telling her all about the Elevator Game.

You told her to play it and record it,

that you'd put it up on the Web and make her famous.

When you stopped responding,

she decided to play it on her own

just to fucking impress you.

This is so gross, Kris. - What?

You knew she was a fan,

and you used that to take advantage of her.

The fact that we even have to explain this to you

- is even grosser. - You know, you've done

skeevy shit before, Kris, but promising

you'd make her famous is--

This could destroy everything that we've worked for.

Yeah, well, it's not like I'm responsible

- for her disappearance! - No!

But I need your help finding her.

Oh, wow.

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

You are fucking pathetic.

You know that?

So you actually think

that she's lost in the fucking Red World?!

Huh?!

You're a fucking joke.

So let me explain this in a way that your little walnut

of a brain can actually comprehend.

Okay?

Your loser sister ran away.

Hey, guys! Guys, guys, guys!

Stop!

Fuck you! Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!

And fuck you! Okay?! Okay?!

This has nothing to do with me! Nothing! I'm out!

You kids can't be in here. You all have to leave. Now.

- Yep. - Yes, sir.

Alright. Let's go. Everyone out.

Yeah, yeah.

Faster, faster. Come on.

Come on. Let's get back to the office.

Yeah. Yeah.

Pick up your feet. Let's go.

I don't want to see you kids back here.

Hey, Chloe.

I'm sorry I didn't say anything before.

No, you're not.

Kris is a total asshole, and he deserved this, but...

you lied and used all of us

to get to this exact moment, right?

Shit. I-I'm sorry.

Yeah.

And I am really sorry about your sister.

I hope she turns up safe.

What could you possibly have to say to me right now?

Okay. Look. What am I supposed to do?

You're asking me? Because my feelings are pretty raw

and you are not gonna like my answer.

Chloe, you there? Chlo--

Yeah, I'm-- I'm here.

Okay, well...

Look. I'm almost home.

Okay? I j--

I just want to talk. That's it.

We'll talk tomorrow, okay?

Kris?

Chloe?

- Chloe?

Hello?

I can't believe he would do this.

Yeah, but we've known him for years.

There's no way--

I mean, I should have expected this.

This is so on par for him, but ugh.

I know. I just didn't think that--

So, we can't have Kris on the show anymore.

Agreed.

Uh, I guess we could start auditioning Monday

and get some sort of...

- Oh, no! - ...background check.

- What? - You wouldn't have happened

to have grabbed a camera from the elevator, would you?

No.

Then I left a camera back in the elevator.

Uh, which-- which one?

The one in the corner that now contains

a healthy amount of footage of us totally trespassing.

Huh.

You want me to go back for it, don't you?

Very, very much so.

By myself?

At night?

- Let's go. - Thank you.

Yeah, yeah. Let's hurry, though.

- I gotta check the footage. Yeah, I know.

Okay.

Okay.

Fifth.

Oh, my God.

Becki?

Hello?

All clear.

Thanks, Mr. Bond.

Hey, can I get a hand?

I got these little T-Rex arms, so I can't really--

You know?

That's better.

You're pretty when you smile. You should do it more often.

What are you doing?

- Having fun. - We don't have time for that.

Oh, there's always time for fun.

I believe two is next on our journey?

So, what's got you all worked up?

You're all silent and despondent.

It can't just be our failing start-up.

Come on, come on.

Come on. Spill it, Kev.

You know how I put the deposit down

on the office building and I said we had enough money

to float us for a month or two?

Yeah. Was that not true?

No, the problem is where the money came from.

You didn't get it from some loan sharks

who break kneecaps, did you?

I wish. That money was from my savings account

and supposed to be tuition for my first year of college.

Oh, my God. Seriously?

Yeah.

So, I take it your dad found out?

Yeah.

Well, you're still alive.

That's a good sign.

I am.

Been sleeping at the office ever since.

Or... you can stay at my place

until you get things figured out with your folks.

Thanks.

Okay.

Can we get back to the office now?

I want to reach out to a few more possible sponsors

before we call it a night, so...

Sure.

But we do only have one more floor left.

You want to finish the game?

Fine.

Might as well get some more footage out of it.

Okay.

Fifth floor.

Hello?

Fifth-Floor Woman?

Oh, wait, I wasn't supposed to look.

Okay.

Well, we had our fun.

Come on.

Close!

Close!

Close, God damn it!

Ah!

What do you want?

Okay, you and your friends are in danger.

What?

It's real, Chloe, the game.

I, uh--

I have to talk to you.

Chloe?

Fuck.

Okay, um, can you meet me at the office in 15?

- I'll be in the wellness area. - Okay. Okay!

Ugh, what's going on?

Hello?

Anyone there?

Come on.

Any day now.

Hello?

Nope.

Ugh.

You've reached

the bus transit after-hours help line.

Due to higher than normal call volume,

your wait could be as long as 55 minutes.

You fuckin'-- Ugh!

Ah!

Shit!

Fuck! Aah!

Fuck me!

Shit, shit, shit! Shit, no fucking way.

We opened the door. Now she's out to get us!

Now what do we do, what do we do?

Chloe, Chloe. I'll call Chloe!

Hey, Matty, I tried calling you--

Stop talking! I need you to meet me at the office!

What?!

Shit, shit.

Matty, are you okay?

I'm at the office now, I--

Okay, perfect. I-I'll see you there!

No!

Salt, salt, gotta find salt, gotta find salt.

Okay, this will do.

Can I help you?

Uh, no, no, I'm good.

I-I see my party sitting right over there.

I need this, actually.

Okay, so, it's a door, it's a door, it has to be.

It's a portal. That's the only explanation.

- Hey, hi. Sorry. - Excuse me.

And then because she's a sleep paralysis

or a walking nightmare stuck between the existence

and the-- Are you done with that? Thanks!

Do you have anything courser?

I'm calling the police.

Yeah, okay, sure, you do that.

Uh... okay. Okay, okay, okay.

Okay, Matty,

so now we just gotta figure how to close the door.

No shit we gotta close the door, but how?

Bingo!

Yes, hello? Some kid just wandered in...

Get off me, get off me!

Just get the hell out of here!

Right. Right, okay, no problem.

'Cause-- 'Cause Chloe likes researching things.

- Close the door. - You guys have to do something.

Yeah, she'll figure out a way to close the door.

- Perfect. Hey.

Hey!

Yeah, uh, thank you for the lovely evening.

Five stars! Oh.

Can't forget this.

I am so, so sorry, everybody.

Hello? Hello?

I have mace.

And if you do anything weird, I'll just--

I'll throw you off the building.

Now talk.

It worked.

I was there...

in her world.

The game worked.

What are you talking about?

I had to find out.

I had to see if my sister was there.

I went back to the building and I played the game by myself.

I was there!

This is completely insane.

No, it's real, Chloe!

The Red World, the Fifth-Floor Woman,

the entire goddamn game is real!

Okay, I need you to go!

Well, I found this...

on the floor of the elevator.

I think something happened to Izzy and Kevin.

Just-- Just watch it.

I-I need to call everyone.

We need to take this to the police.

The police can't help us, Chloe.

Look, I don't know you! And I don't really trust you!

Chloe, I am sorry about how this all went down,

I really, truly am.

But the police gave up on finding Becki.

Even my parents gave up on finding her.

But I can't give up.

I know she would never run away.

Look, if you lost someone that close to you,

wouldn't you do anything to help find them?

Look, I needed your help

and I just didn't want you all to think I was crazy.

No.

This is Kris' fault.

And what he did is absolutely awful, but...

right now, I'm more concerned

with making sure my friends are okay.

What-- What is all this?

T-This wasn't here before. I--

- Oh! - Ah! What the fuck, Chloe?

- Sorry, I'm sorry! - What was the for?

My nerves are on edge right now, okay?

Oh, and this guy's back.

Break up any more web shows today?

Don't touch the circle.

What the hell is all this?

Nourishment. It's gonna be a long night here, folks.

That doesn't answer my question, Matty.

Just get inside the circle. I'll explain everything.

Do you have to drag your feet when you walk?

Okay, so, here's what's up.

Something happened when we played the game.

We-- We broke a rule.

I thought the game was ruined by that office guy.

See, that's what I thought, too,

but then I started thinking about it.

And Kris hit the last button.

He pressed one. But then we went up.

So, you actually did open the door.

Exactly.

You're supposed to add water to that.

That... makes sense.

And then you looked back?

I looked back 'cause Chloe looked back.

Are you guys seriously blaming me?

And what, you're both claiming to be cursed?

Wait, how did he get cursed?

Oh, he went back and played solo.

That was dumb.

Look, I am not spending my night

standing in a circle of salt and votive candles.

What happened when you did it?

No... way, bro!

You saw the Red World, didn't you?

Did you go in?

Yeah. - That is so frickin' cool!

Oh, my gosh, what was it--

That's the dumbest thing you could have ever done.

Why would you do that?

He thought he could find his sister.

Oh.

Wow. Now we have to find a way to close the door.

Okay, we need to go to the police.

You can't call the cops on a ghost, Chloe.

I really think something bad

has happened to Kevin and Izzy.

Did they play, too?

I think, and something may have scared them!

- Yeah, the F-- If you say

they were attacked by a fucking ghost woman, I swear to God...

Look, did you find anything else in your research?

What'd you find, Chlo?

I traced the game back to a news story from a few decades ago.

It was during a sorority pledge weekend.

They-- They took one of the girls into an office building

and they locked her into the elevator shaft.

Her name was Allie McCormack.

Come on, guys. Guys?!

They said they'd come back in an hour to get her,

but apparently, they went back to the sorority house,

got drunk, and forgot about her.

Let me out!

She spent the entire weekend all alone,

slowly losing her mind.

That Monday when people started coming in for work,

she was still down there.

She was crushed by the elevator, causing her spine to shatter.

But that isn't what killed her.

According to the coroner,

she eventually got twisted up in the elevator gears

and was very slowly ripped apart.

They didn't find her body until several days later.

So, she's a vengeance spirit.

No, Matty, she's a poor, dead girl from a few decades ago.

And you scared yourself into thinking this is all real.

All these years of doing this and you still don't believe it?

Because it's never fucking real!

It's all stories people made up

because they're afraid of the finality of their own death.

That was dark.

Okay.

Listen, guys.

Let's just say that this is real...

'cause it is.

What do we do about it?

Uh...

I...

...don't know.

Look, I've been searching online,

but anything I can find on the rules

tells me how to open the door, just not how to close it.

I'm giving this five more minutes

and then I'm going to the police.

Fine. I've got a few more sources to check.

I can't believe I'm letting this lunacy play out.

You saw what was on that camera.

It doesn't mean that they--

What is that song?

Hmm?

What song?

You were just humming a song.

Yeah, I guess I was.

Um, I don't know, probably heard it somewhere.

Pretty catchy.

I heard it, too, when I was there.

She was humming it.

It's...

Ugh, it's really familiar.

♪ The elevator goes up

♪ Comes back down and then

The elevator song.

It's a nursery rhyme my mom used to sing.

You've heard it before, right?

No.

My mom didn't sing nursery rhymes.

She mostly cursed and threw things.

♪ The elevator goes up

♪ Comes back down and then

♪ The doors open, the doors close ♪

- ♪ Let's all ride again - That's what she was humming.

It's just a kids' song. I'm sure you've heard it before.

Uh, sorry.

The doors close.

A-And then we ride again.

We-- We didn't finish the game.

We never finished.

We have to-- We have to play again.

We have to step out into her world.

And then we ride again.

That's how we close the door!

- Yes! - That's it!

Yes!

What are you doing?

- I'm calling the police.

- Okay, okay. - Okay, uh, we need a plan.

We have to step back into the elevator

and we have to play again.

Right, right, right, and then, uh...

Chloe, you can stop humming. We got it. Um...

That's not me.

Hello?

Yeah, just call the monster right over to us, why don't you?

Chloe, step back into the circle.

Chloe. Chloe!

Allie?

Okay, that's good.

That's good.

Maybe she goes by Alice.

Is the salt ring gonna work?

According to what I've read.

P-Please work.

Oh, fuck.

Okay.

Okay, t-this is perfect.

S-S-She-- She can't get through.

Matty.

Can you?!

Matty.

No, I'm telling you guys,

the Internet does not lie about these things.

- Matty, no!

Matty!

Okay, okay. Okay, okay, okay.

- Run, run! - Okay, okay.

Go, go, go!

Come on. Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

I thought I told you kids not to come back here.

- No, we have to just get up-- - I don't want to hear it.

Get your asses out of the building.

I'm not messing around. Let's go!

- Come on! Let's go. - Fine.

Fine, fine.

- Chloe. - It's-- It's over, Ryan.

We'll-- We'll get out. Okay.

Okay. Smart choice.

- No, we're not leaving. - Okay, you know what?

I've given you this chance once already.

- I'm calling the cops.

- Oh! - Sorry, I'm so sorry!

I'm so, so sorry! Sorry!

- Oh, my God.

So, you really did have mace.

Of course, I did.

What if it doesn't work?

It's gotta work.

Okay.

Up until 15 minutes ago,

I didn't have a shred of faith at any of this ever being real.

Now all I have is faith in the fact that this has to work.

All we have to do is follow her rules.

If we do that, we'll be fine.

Listen.

If it doesn't work, we run like hell.

And we don't look back.

Ever, Chloe.

We find a way to break this curse or a way to kill her.

But this is gonna work.

- Yeah.

Wait.

We're about to invite her in here with us.

I know.

Hey.

Remember, don't look at her,

don't speak to her, no matter what.

- Okay? Okay.

Don't look, don't look.

Don't look, don't look.

Close. Close.

Okay. Okay, okay, do it.

It worked.

- Okay. - It's working.

This place...

...it's real.

All of it...

real.

Ryan, come on.

Ryan!

Ryan, we need to go, please?

It's her.

It's Becki.

Ryan, come on.

I knew I'd find you here.

No, it's a trick.

Please?

Ryan, Becki's gone.

I know it hurts, okay? But she's gone.

I'm scared. Please, let's go.

So, we just go back to one now, right?

And it's all over?

Yeah.

- Yeah. - Okay.

Why are we stopping on five?

She's not going to give up.

- What? - She's not going to let us go.

Close your eyes.

- Is she here? Yeah.

Where are you going?

Chloe, don't.

Don't leave me, Ryan.

I'm so scared here.

Ryan?

Hey, girlies, guess what.

I finally found it.

I found the actual elevator from the story.

Okay, so Chloe Young and her friends

all played the elevator game

before they disappeared a few years ago.

Now, rumor has it the police just never found their bodies.

Or did the Fifth-Floor Woman take them?

So, guess what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna play the elevator game in this very elevator.

Okay, Internet, who's ready to meet the Fifth-Floor Woman?

I know I am.

Let's start by going to four.
