I know I'm a little late in answering this, but not, a toilet flushing would not cause a down suction. Firstly, the amount of water that refills a toilet is minuscule compared to the amount of water in the cistern; secondly, and more importantly, the toilet is actually refilled by water that is...

Well as someone who has spent 20+ years as a ridiculously big horror fan, I can tell you that this just feels very unusual and tasteless, even in the context of horror. Even those crappy 'torture *advertiser censored*' movies are just silly entertainment at their core... no real people are directly victimized by...

"Film Industry Condemned for Turning Grizzly Story into Supernatural Thriller" Nice! Knowing how influenced by public opinion the entertainment business is, I see this headed in potentially positive direction. They're getting their 'test audience' reaction up front :) (At the same time, if...

I'm glad to see this film is receiving backlash from various directions: http://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/article/1439912/disgust-plan-turn-elisa-lams-water-tank-death-horror-movie It deserves every bit. Sounds like it's slated to be a major release, as opposed to one of the countless...

I agree with your comments. When all is said and done, people will make of this event what they want to make of it, regardless of whether the police throw out some more ambiguous details. This is obviously a contentious topic, but I feel like the LE ultimately supplied solid supporting by...

Despite my previous comments, I'm a big horror movie fan, so I can understand the obvious allure of Elisa's case for filmmakers: it's a very creepy story involving a cute girl, a disturbing piece of video, a death that is right out of a Japanese ghost film, and the obvious visceral reaction...

http://www.dreadcentral.com/news/74276/sony-bringing-elisa-lams-haunting-and-frightening-tale-big-screen#axzz2uZ5mIl1H It doesn't get much more tasteless than this, but it's certainly no big surprise given the nature of this story and Hollywood's total lack of respect for anything but profit...

I agree that there is a 'maybe' factor, definitely. All I'm getting at is that many people have taken the position that the doubt is more important than the likelihoods, and have put more importance on their own intuitive perception of whatever is happening in the video than they do in the...

I completely agree. Bipolar psychosis is not the same thing as a bipolar episode, and not everyone who is bipolar experiences psychosis. Only a subset of bipolar people experience psychosis, and it can depend on the individual, their condition, their circumstances, medication issues, etc. So...

If you go read the old 'main' threads at the bottom of this sub-forum, you'll find yourself in a vortex of opinions about the elevator video. That is definitely your best bet if you want to find the variety of viewpoints on the topic. However, while the video is fascinating and creepy (which...

http://www.npr.org/blogs/allsongs/2014/01/23/264894944/first-watch-the-zolas-ancient-mars I found this really interesting. It's a music video about Elisa's final days that was shot in and around the Cecil, as well as other areas in L.A. It's nice to know that people are still thinking about...

I certainly hope she is safe, but if she is happily adventuring while her loved ones' lives are destroyed by her sudden disappearance, then there is something seriously wrong with her. That's why I suspect that is not the case, sadly. I don't think she would be running around adventuring while...

This has been discussed... I don't remember who with, but I think I talked about it with Conductor. I believe someone already may have established how to go about ordering it. If not, I might be able to later this week when my schedule lightens up. As fascinating and informative as the...

If she died of accidental drowning, I suspect it was because she got into the tank (for reasons we cannot possibly attempt to guess) and then could not physically get out due to not being able to pull herself out of the hatch. Getting in might have seemed easy, but she may have underestimated...

The primary reason for The Cecil's image as a 'murder hotel' is the fact that two serial killers happened to stay there (neither of which committed murders there, to my knowledge), a woman was murdered there, and someone committed suicide which inadvertently resulted in the death of a bystander...

Firstly, the report states that their results were inconclusive regarding the medication. Secondly, medication is far from a perfect science. Medication can help, but it can also induce episodes. It can also do nothing either way. On top of that, she was in a period of flux with her meds, as I...

Someone posted detailed pictures of the rooftop a couple of months after Elisa was found. The tank still had the hole cut in the side of it, and there was a fairly large amount of sediment in an inch or two of water in the bottom of the tank. The pictures are in a thread on this forum (not sure...

Right, but this report does not contain the details of the police investigation. It mentions that a police officer saw the sand, but this is not a detailed account of how the police conducted their investigation. How the police reacted to the sand (and every other detail of their investigation)...

I agree. I wonder if this report includes the final drug analysis and if there are other tests that are not included here. The dates are a little confused in my head, but from what I'm seeing through Google news, the first mention of the drug test results was in June. The drug test on this...

I think that comparison would be in the police report if it was made. The medical examiners wouldn't be out on the roof comparing particles. They probably just made the comment because it's part of the formality of recording details, but any further investigation would be police work. This is...
