Best elevator story ever! The perfect amounts of humor, itrigue, mystery, action, and horror. Topped off with a brilliant presentation and naration that really brings it to life. Now I really want more elevator repair man stories, TV series, movies, and bad ass merchandice to collect. Who needs superman when we got bad ass repair man fixing elevators and kicking demon butts?! ❤😮
I just found you through Lighthouse Horror, and started with some older uploads. The stories are top notch, and Your narration has improved exponentially over time. Thank you for sharing your work with us.
"The light came on and showed a dozen greedy necrotic hands reaching out the walls unbuckling my pants" "hey turn the lights back off" a handy is a handy😂
I'm gunna get a cuppa a always feel sorry for elevator service/repair men . What people don't understand how important these guys really are and are never given the recognition and respect they deserve these guys are the invisible heroes.
@@JordanGrupe like I said there are invisible to everyone one work on security if the building has lifts they are in the top 5 emergency numbers to contact I've seen some of the things they have to do and are treated as if they are invisible to these guys do a lot a say very little
Thank you so much for the comment! Sometimes as an author I wonder whether people make these connections but I love dropping little Easter eggs like that into stories
@@JordanGrupe I love Easter eggs like that, it's always fun to have a connected world and going, wait that sounds familiar! Also when listening to the car park story I was thinking these elevator guys are really interesting, so in addition to this being great on it's own it expands the world and lore, I'll keep looking for more Easter eggs.
Man I love the Vex/Mason series!!! What's funny to me is I waited to watch them because they didn't seem that interesting to me but once I listened to them they were my favorite @@JordanGrupe
This is an amazing tale. I just know that Michael would not have been as easily shaken. But of course in the end we all knew how it would go. Great work!!
Great series Jordan! I really enjoy stories about twisting the unknown mundane items we interact with in real life. Your stories are interesting and engaging… I try to put them on in the background while I’m working but always find myself locked in to your narration instead. Thanks so much!
Lol, i though he said short bus hair in the beginning 😂😂😂. I pictured loyd Christmas from dumb and dumber. And after replaying that part i realized he said short buzzed.
Speaking as someone who hates elevators, modem elevators have a lot of failsafes. If a cable breaks, it's much more likely for an elevator car to be propelled to the top of the shaft by a free-falling counterweight than for the car itself to plummet. Also, you can stop a closing elevator door with your bare hand, people often do. No elevator door would ever be designed to be able to crush someone
I laughed SO hard at the part of a serial killer playing "Don't worry be happy" while slaughtering boy scouts. Dude! Where do u come up with this stuff!?? Also, I really liked how u brought in the SG character from the Asylum story! Very cool, man, very cool. ✌️💜
The devil in the elevator reminded me of a dream I had. I was on a plateau and this guy was staring at me. He was wearing a round brimmed hat with a flat top like a plateau, a trench coat, and boots with a rounded toe. I couldn't see his face or the rest of his body even though his trench coat wasn't covering it. He was looking straight at me with glowing red eyes that were staring daggers into me. He lifted his hands into the air and with that I flew into the air like a puppet on strings. Then he moved his hands to my left and I flew over the edge of the plateau. Then he let go. I drop maybe 200 feet smashing into the ground. Then I threw up cheerios and milk before waking up on the floor of my 8th grade science classroom floor. My first thought was maybe nobody noticed. So I jumped to my feet and realized I was surrounded by my class and the teacher. This made my head spin and I would of fallen again if it wasn't for my teacher. I've had this dream multiple times but don't always hit the ground or throw up cheerios.
Dean coontz said that a great writer is someone who has taught their mind to misbehave and he has but a little bit to much sick shit for me but you my friend has trained yours to make absolute bull believable and entertaining. Puts pictures in my head 😎. Love it
As an elevator mechanic, it's hard to listen to these stories without rolling my eyes. Like, I get it, it's just a fun story but I genuinely think stories like these do harm to the general public. But it is well written, I guess. Just... oh and also, I don't know any single mechanic on this earth who would introduce themselves as an elevator "repairman" We're Mechanics and that is a title that absolutely every one of us is damn proud of.
When I went to Spain for Spring Break we had "Elevator Parties" we shoved as many ppl as possible in an elevator and when it was time to get out we would have to take a huge step up to the floor cause the elevator had sunk a good foot and more lol.
No but he does appear again in the series "Help I'm trapped in an underground parking garage with no exit" which I've also narrated. I do want to get back to this character at some point though.
Poor messyTommy.. Didn’t listen to the rules… My neighbor was a repairman for Otis elevator. He had a few interesting stories. Worst things he had to deal with was rats in the shafts.
when I was little I remember seeing a bit of some story on the news about some kid who sustained a horrible injury on an escalator at the mall, like not life-threatening or anything, but I remember they showed one of her shoes all chewed to pieces by the machinery, and her foot completely bandaged in a cast, and my imagination did the rest. I don't recall any of the details as to what exactly happened, and I might not even be correctly remembering all of what I did catch (this was all well over 25 years ago and I was no older than 7), but I know I definitely developed a fear of escalators that I still carry to this day.
If you have worked in some hospitals you might know the look I'm talking about. It's a very light olive green to begin with but then it gets washed and bleached so many times by the laundry service that they lose almost all color. Hence "colorless green"
Oh a good friends mums got stuck under all the people n it ripped n tore open her back as well as many broken bones from all the people on her its many years later n she is still suffering Very sad a big strong eoman b4 n now she walks with a stoop n a severe limp n much pain still.
I wish I wasn’t disabled so I could take the stairs 😥 I’m scared of escalators. I don’t do malls, they rarely have enough elevators except like in the middle of the mall, and escalators at all the important places. Oh, and I can’t get my walker on and off the escalator fast enough. 😒 They really don’t think about disabled people.
They do think of disabled people that's why they have elevators. I was disabled for 9 months because I developed deep vein thrombosis and I couldn't stand or walk for more than minutes at a time because my legs felt like they were on fire. Mind you I was 31 at the time and I'm decently fit but I had to use a walker and I would alternate with a scooter I bought. I'm rambling anyways the point of this comment was to let you know I've seen older people and big people who have walkers ride backward on escalators and once they get to the top they just take a step back and lift their walker and walk back at their own speed. Of course, you have to pay attention getting close to the top but it's all about having a game plan on how to get around certain obstacles and just committing.
@@mattymayhem1232 I've been disabled for years, and I'm telling you, when you have to get off the escalator fast, it's not fast enough to get a walker off, I can't MOVE that fast in the first place. I can't even get my walker onto an escalator safely. They even have signs saying don't take strollers on the escalators either for the same reason. And people on scooters definitely cannot use escalators. I did point out that they have elevators, but they're not at either end of a mall, they're in the middle, so if I come in through one end and I'm on the top level, I have to go all the way to the center of the mall before I can make it down to the bottom level. So say the store I want is much closer to where I entered, I would have to double all the way back from the center of the mall to get back to that store. I have been to so many places where the building either doesn't have an elevator, or there are additional areas where a walker won't fit, etc. I just went to NYC, and there were literally stores where the only entrance was stairs, and they have the nerve to put a handicapped accessible sticker next to this entrance. And don't get me started on assholes who use handicapped parking spots because they "just needed to run in for ten minutes" etc... You were disabled for nine months, try doing it for 10 years, that's how long I have been dealing with this BS.
@@Stardust_7273where it seems you have it really rough is in the winter. I've been a caregiver for years & there have been winters where people literally can't leave their house for like weeks during storms where sidewalks aren't cleared & all that smh. Puts a lot in perspective. Keep yr head up, if ya can. God bless.
@@jackiec498 thank you 🙏🏻 ❤️ Yes, I have it rough in the winter, ngl. I have to park outside. And I never go out in winter weather. But I just deal and try to plan as best I can. I do love the rest of the year, particularly autumn, I adore Halloween 🎃 So I can really look forward to that time of year ❤️😊
Not to mention that there are not nearly enough disabled parking spaces that are actually accessible for wheelchair users (little to zero loading zones) and the asshat motorcycle riders who seem to think that the loading zone is their personal reserved parking space. Like if I hit or knock your bike down unloading, that’s on you for parking there. Idc if your bike cost you 40k. Go park it in a proper space then.
A it started out so good but the door took me out already there really arent any great elevator repairman stories out there. I love the narration though and it makes for a good listen if you have no idea about the subject matter. 😂 Or this story plays in china then all bets are off.
Oh man. Im an empath & i struggle hearing about injuries, watching someone injure themselves, or even tell fake stories about it. I had to skip most of this one unfortunately 🙃

Awesome job telling that story yes im.a grown ass man listening to another man tell stories
The whole Cub Scout troop thing cracked me up!
I ALWAYS carry my service dog when we are on an escalator. It don't matter that he is 40 pounds. I want him to be safe.
Somebody got inspiration from watching mishaps with Chinese escalators and elevators. Great writing and narrations.
Very happy I found your channel, you have a very engaging voice!
Thank you kindly!
