The everyday elevator ride of a business woman is interrupted by the "Bag Man". What does he have in his bag and what turns the everyday situation into a nightmare? If you're afraid of elevators you should avoid reading this fine composed and absolutely uncanny story. Lovecraft meets modern business world. On my next elevator ride I'll have this bizarre story in mind. Really recommended!

"Elevator" By Lisa Stump was a awesome, creepy elevator ride....with "Lovecraft" type touches. Total fun!

"I'm trying to have a better attitude."

I remember those old, creepy elevators from my youth. They were creaky, they moved slowly....unlike this one, and they stopped with a noticeable jerk!

But, we always had an attendant, no mysterious red bag man with ghoulish eyes, no 'somewhat' familiar whispering woman, and no deadly haunting memories.

Bad things, dirty things did not happen like they do in this ELEVATOR.

"I'm trying to have a better attitude."

This is a great short story. I wish there was more to it. Also, I might be a little biased since my wife wrote it.
