Play the Elevator Game with trailer for Shudder’s supernatural horror

August 12, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Shudder has released a poster and trailer for director Rebekah McKendry’s supernatural horror Elevator Game. 

The film inspired by the online phenomenon known as The Elevator Game, which sees players attempt to reach another dimension or invoke a supernatural entity by riding an elevator in a specific sequence; check out the trailer below…

ELEVATOR GAME follows socially awkward teenager Ryan, who ingratiates himself into a group of recent high school graduates that run an online web series debunking urban legends. But Ryan has a secret: His sister disappeared months earlier, and he believes they – and a dangerous online challenge called ‘The Elevator Game’ – were responsible. To play the game, you must ride the elevator in a specific sequence, invoking a supernatural creature called ‘The 5th Floor Woman’. In an attempt to gain more information as to the whereabouts of his sister, Ryan persuades the group to play the game once more, and risk unleashing the most fearsome consequences imaginable.

The film stars Gino Anania, Verity Marks, Alec Carlos, Nazariy Demkowicz, Madison MacIsaac, Liam Stewart-Kanigan, and Megan Best.

Elevator Game begins streaming on Shudder from September 15th.
