Room 305 (1971) - Prelude - video Dailymotion

Nightfall Crypt

In 1971 Chicago, a condemned 14-floor hotel hides a mystery that defies logic. Room 305—sealed shut and forgotten—is not on any blueprint. When a journalist investigates the haunting legacy of the room where a man once burned alive, she uncovers a chilling voice that whispers from the darkness: “It’s almost time. Let me in.” But the deeper she digs, the more reality begins to unravel—and so does the floor beneath her feet.

00:00I don't usually write about ghosts.

00:03That kind of thing was for tabloids and late-night radio,

00:06cheap thrills for the lonely.

00:08But in the winter of 1971,

00:11something happened that I've never been able to explain,

00:14let alone forget.

00:17Back then, I was a junior reporter at the Chicago Tribune,

00:21assigned to cover the demolition of the old Monte Vista Hotel downtown.

00:26Fourteen stories of faded grandeur,

00:28once a jewel of the 1920s,

00:31now hollowed out and crumbling.

00:33But there was a problem.

00:35One of the demolition crews reported a sealed room on the 12th floor,

00:39room 305.

00:41They couldn't open it, couldn't break it.

00:44Every night at exactly 3.05 a.m.,

00:47they heard knocking from the other side.

00:49Not banging.

00:51Knocking.

00:52As if someone was being polite about their imprisonment.

00:56I should have ignored it.

00:58I should have just filed the peace and gone home.

01:01But I went up there.

01:03I wanted to see for myself.

01:05And I heard her voice.

01:07It's almost time.

01:09Let me in.

01:10I've never told anyone what happened after that.

01:13Until now.

01:14Let me in.

01:15Let me in.

01:33Let me in.
