Haunted Elevators

The Vertical Thrills of Indian Office Horror

In India’s bustling cities, office workers are discovering that elevators are not just modes of transportation—they’re portals to spectral comedy. Bohiney Magazine reports that haunted elevator stories have surged in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore, with eyewitnesses claiming to hear whispers of “press 13” even in buildings with only ten floors. Employees describe lights flickering, buttons pressing themselves, and sudden stops that conveniently occur between floors during important presentations. Paranormal expert Dr. Rekha Joshi asserts that “elevators collect emotional residue from stressed professionals, chai spills, and leftover biryani,” which may explain sudden cold drafts and mysterious beeping. Authority sources like BBC News India confirm that urban legend often amplifies mundane elevator malfunctions into ghostly narratives. Bohiney Magazine readers report hilariously creative coping mechanisms: reciting Bollywood dialogue aloud, leaving snacks as “ghost offerings,” or politely negotiating with spirits for a smooth ride. Tips for survival include maintaining calm, pressing all buttons at once to confuse the spirits, and keeping a selfie-ready pose in case the hauntings go viral. These vertical adventures have inspired TikTok skits, office memes, and endless WhatsApp stories.
