And she knows, because she was friends with Wyatt and his girlfriend, Felicia, who went missing three months after he did. (Side note: Am I the only one creeped out by that in real life? Like, the engineers who built the apparatus believe in science enough to create a lift that will carry hundreds of pounds… yet not enough to tempt fate by slapping the number 13 on the floor?) As they stand in the lobby, confused, a teen girl tells them that the Elevator Game does, indeed, work. HALF THE GIRL SHE USED TO BE | So the Ladies Bouchard meet Ben the Magnificent at the hotel and play the Elevator Game, until they realize that the building is one of those in which the 13th floor is labeled 14th, out of superstition. All of the little Bouchards want to come with Kristen when she goes to Wyatt’s building to look at security footage, and even though that’s a terrible idea, MaybeDemon Kristen is all about making impulsive decisions! But oops, Lexis has an appointment with her math tutor… so Kristen says, kseeyabye! to her kiddo and leaves her alone at home. And via the young ladies and an Internet video, we learn that The Elevator Game is a Slenderman-like urban legend that sends you to Hell if you’re “haunted,” you should paint a pentagram in your room. “Oh, it’s the elevator game,” one of Kristen’s daughters says when she sees the numbers later, after Kristen comes home.

And he carved “El Game” into his desk with the numbers 8-4-2-13-1 nearby. But Ben steps in and they continue upstairs to examine Wyatt’s room… where they find a huge pentagram marked on the floor, hidden underneath the rug. There’s an interesting moment when Kristen - in just the latest in an expanding list of Weird Ish That Is Happening To Her - can’t physically way the words “possession” or “demonic” when explaining to Wyatt’s parents why she, David and Ben don’t interfere with police cases. Wyatt was screaming, and “He said, ‘Save me,'” his mother tearfully recalls. The police think Wyatt ran away his folks don’t think so, based on a call they got from their kid the day after he went missing. Meanwhile, Kristen and Ben meet with the parents of a teenage boy named Wyatt who disappeared. “Maybe that should be David, because he knows me so well,” Leland says, and Mulvehill heartily agrees while David winces.

He also suggests that Leland take on a spiritual sponsor of sorts. THE ELEVATOR GAME | Leland is faking his way through his exorcism sessions, and though he’s not fooling David, Father Mulvehill firmly states that they’re nowhere near casting the nefarious forces out of him.
