The Hospital Elevator Rule

The Hospital Elevator Rule --- In many hospitals, there is a rule

never written down. If an elevator stops on a floor you didn’t select… don’t step out.

Security logs from multiple hospitals show the same pattern. Late at night, elevators stop on

empty floors. No lights. No patients assigned. But cameras show something unsettling.

The doors open… and someone always waits inside the elevator. Staff members who

stepped out reported the same experience: The hallway felt wrong. Too quiet.

Too long. Some said they walked for minutes without reaching another door.

Others said the elevator doors closed behind them — and reopened somewhere else.
