As the leaves turn and spooky season is here, Doctor Bill and Deb embark on a fascinating exploration of Internet rituals and their links to the paranormal. They discuss how rituals, from ancient practices to modern games, have always been integral to human experience, and how the digital age has given rise to a new form of ritualistic behavior, often manifesting as dares popularized through social media.

The conversation centers around the Elevator Game, a ritual that promises players the opportunity to access another dimension by following a specific sequence of actions in an elevator. Doctor Bill elaborates on the eerie lore surrounding this game, mentioning accounts of players who claim to have succeeded in transcending reality, while also highlighting the risks involved. The narrative weaves in the tragic story of Elisa Lam, whose mysterious death at the Cecil Hotel has drawn connections to the Elevator Game. The hosts reflect on the unsettling nature of her final moments captured on video, encouraging listeners to question the nature of her experience—was it a result of a mental health crisis, or could it have been something more supernatural? This thought-provoking episode not only entertains but also invites listeners to ponder the complexities of belief, reality, and the mystical elements that persist in our culture.

In a chilling yet captivating discussion, Doctor Bill and Deb examine the burgeoning trend of Internet rituals, specifically focusing on the Elevator Game, while also highlighting the cultural fascination with the paranormal. They begin by defining the paranormal as experiences that defy conventional scientific explanation, emphasizing the importance of empirical evidence and logical reasoning in exploring these topics. The hosts delve into the history of rituals and how they have morphed into modern-day dares often linked to urban legends, creating a compelling narrative that intertwines folklore with contemporary culture.

The episode takes a significant turn as they explore the haunting story of Elisa Lam, whose tragic death at the Cecil Hotel has sparked numerous theories, including her potential involvement in the Elevator Game. Doctor Bill recounts the details of her disappearance and the unsettling security footage that has captivated audiences, raising questions about her mental state and the possibility of supernatural influences. The hosts grapple with the implications of her case, discussing the intersection of mental health struggles and the allure of the unknown, ultimately leaving listeners with a sense of intrigue and caution. This episode serves as a reminder of the mysteries that lie within both our minds and the world around us, encouraging a deeper understanding of the phenomena we often dismiss as mere folklore.
