[_] warning ::: ~spooky~ Anon 3289362 This video is of Elisa Lam. A young Chinese Canadian woman of 21 years old who was on a vacation in the United States. She was visiting a few different places on her trip (including Las Vegas) but at the time of this video she was in Los Angeles staying at the Cecil Hotel. This elevator footage was taken at 12:00am midnight the day before she was supposed to checkout and leave the hotel. Earlier that day she was spotted at a book store and the owner said that she had bought gifts to bring back to her parents and spoke with him in a normal manner and did not appear in poor mood. Lisa did have bipolar disorder and had suffered from depression and other mental issues in recent years prior to this fatal incident. The day after this footage was recorded the hotel staff entered her room due to her failing to check out and found all her belongings still there. Her parents concerned over the fact that their daughter did not call them as she did on a daily basis contacted the police who started a thorough search. They found nothing except this odd elevator footage from the night before her disappearance. Weeks later residents of the Hotel complained of poor water pressure and dark, discolored water. A handyman was sent to the roof where he discovered inside one of the hotels 2 large water tanks Lisa's already badly decomposed body floating face-up in the water. To this day it is still a sad mystery. What do you think happened? Marked for deletion (old).

>> [_] Anon 3289390 >># she ran up the fire escape got raped by kidnapper and dumped into water supply #youhavetobesomekindaspecialtobelivethis
>> [_] Anon 3289393 >># except the water supply tank had bolts on it you needed special and heavy duty tools to remove.
>> [_] Anon 3289398 >># and they've got roof access locked down tight and an alarm would sound if anyone tried to pry it open and this whole story is DOG SHIT
>> [_] Anon 3289404 Check this aspect of the case- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt8lhNNk 9So
>> [_] Anon 3289407 >># If you're interested in video's about this then youtube search ""BrainScratch Elisa Lam"". The guy is pretty intelligent and did a few separate video's about this awhile back and they are done really well and have alot of weird/interesting stuff/info in them. Combined they are really thorough and are probably by far the best investigative videos on the case if you have interest in it.
>> [_] Anon 3289419 >># I recommend looking at the rest of the channel's series called "Brainscratch Searchlight" where John describes currently active missing peoples' cases. He also releases updates for cases he's already covered.
>> [_] Anon 3289422 >># Someone who had access to the tank killed her and tossed her in or the bolts werent attached at the time. I didn't hear about it being bolted down until just recently. Before the word used was 'locked' which can mean a worker forgot to check the tank before realizing it wasnt locked ie she was able to fall in on her own being in the middle of a manic state and likely very impulsive. Either way its not creepy at all when you consider she was mentally ill and was likely to behave strangely on camera.
>> [_] Anon 3289425 >># From what I remember I don't think it was bolted down or even locked but getting onto it in the first place, twisting and opening the heavy hatch and then getting inside while also sealing yourself in all while being deeply visually impaired (as she was without her glasses) doesn't sounds like it would be easy even if it was possible. But even assuming it was physically possible it is obviously a very strange way and place to go.
>> [_] Anon 3289435 her hands moving at an impossible angle is the most disturbing part
>> [_] Anon 3289436 >># Oh so you also saw that movie? Let me tell ya: it's a horror movie, it's not real.
>> [_] Anon 3289438 >so a chinese girl steps into an elevator nope I've seen way too many of these
>> [_] Anon 3289450 why didn't she just jump when the elevator was about to hit the bottom?
>> [_] Anon 3289491 >># Why does the elevator stay open for so long?
>> [_] Anon 3289514 >># I know, yeah? I went into this without reading comments, like a MAN. and I just expected her to fall down a trap door and got really bored and peeved when she didn't.

>> [_] Anon 3044983 >># This desu senpai
>> [_] Anon 3044984 >># everything in that video is textbook schizo shit you're also leaving out that "mental issues" included schizo shit she killed herself dummy
>> [_] Anon 3044993 >># Wasnt the water they found her in like sealed and shit? like I remember it was either locked or needed two people to open or something
>> [_] Anon 3044995 >># Then anon is right and she's a schizophrenic. Her, and the millions of voices in her head was able to open it if a mere 2 could.
>> [_] Anon 3044998 >># Yeah. The tank despite being quite tall and only accessible using a ladder has a heavy sealed lid that weighs 20-30+ lbs. The idea that a weak looking woman like her could in the dark of night somehow find a ladder on the roof, get ontop of the tank, remove the heavy lid, get inside and then somehow seal the lid back on once she was inside seems a bit questionable. Also I don't think bi-polar disorder is the same as schizophrenia and she was on medication for it. Granted I believe she may have went out to a bar or something earlier that day so she might have gotten drunk or done a drug... who knows but this idea that she was just insane or regularly had mental breakdowns doesn't seem accurate based on the reporting of her recent life and personality. She seems fairly stable for the most part and was out book shopping earlier that day for gifts.
>> [_] Anon 3045000 >># Oh and I would add that a truly unstable person probably wouldn't be taking a big vacation which she spoke excitedly of before the start. She visited multiple places across the USA. If you can barely keep your shit together you wouldn't be doing that. I like better the theory that she got drunk and it interacted badly with one of her medications or she took a drug/got drugged but again I suppose it is also theoretically possible that she just randomly had a breakdown the night before she was supposed to move on with her vacation and leave that area... can't rule it out.
>> [_] Anon 3045011 boring video why you post this
>> [_] Anon 3045022 >># Is this one of those Chinese videos where the elevator malfunctions and they fall to their death? nigga im not reading your wall of text
>> [_] Anon 3045025 >># literally "nothing happens" the video tl;dr just the last time the chick was seen
>> [_] Anon 3045030 >># Eh. With the context behind the video it is pretty creepy. She got inside or was put inside the tank literally right after that video was recorded or at the very least sometime in the next few hours following the video.
>> [_] Anon 3045047 is she pushing all buttons to all the floors or what is she doing exactly?
>> [_] Anon 3045054 >># how is that elevator door staying open for so long?
>> [_] Anon 3045056 >># She repeatedly pressed the hold elevator button which automatically keeps the door open for a full 2 minutes before closing (in that particular elevator).
>> [_] Anon 3045087 >># get off the internet, Elisa's mom we don't know what happened
>> [_] Anon 3045089 iirc the door to the roof and to the tank needed keys, also she removed all her clothes, so maybe someone didn't lock up at night and she tried skinny dipping but didn't think ahead how to get back out....
>> [_] Anon 3045091 >># >also she removed all her clothes hot
>> [_] Anon 3045095 >># >iirc the door to the roof and to the tank needed keys You can also access the roof through that top floors fire escape which I don't think is difficult to do and we also can't say if the roof door was locked or not (thats just pure speculation even if the building claimed it was). I also wasn't aware the tank needed keys but I doubt they would leave a water tank open if only because that would allow outside sediments to potentially fall in and clog it and because well water tanks probably aren't typically messed with that often so you'd expect them to be closed and left closed. I don't think it is a that would would opened frequently.
>> [_] Anon 3045159 The orginal post on creepypasta doesn't mention that keys were needed. Just that she was found in there, and 20-30 pounds is not really that heavy, it can be awkward to lift but thats it. She had mental issues and commited suicide.
