Elisa Lam was a 21 year old woman who was mysteriously found dead in the water tower of a Los Angeles hotel back in February 2013. The reason her death is mysterious is because it has yet to be solved.
On the day of her death, security footage from the elevator cameras shows her stepping in and out of the elevator, talking and gesturing to what seems to be no one. She was found naked in the water tower, with her clothes and personal belongings floating nearby. While in the elevator, she also seems to be hiding and behaving quite strangely, jumping in and out between the threshold. There was no evidence of physical harm in her autopsy, and she was believed to have died of natural causes. But the question is- why would she crawl up in a water tower, strip naked, and then drown herself? It does not makes sense.
Overall, many people have speculated that she was mentally disturbed, having suffered from bipolar disorder, and maybe just decided to die. The circumstances are very suspicious. It is a very sad case. The video of her in the elevator went viral on the Internet and disturbed many people worldwide.
Did she kill herself? Was she murdered? Why was she naked? Who was she talking to in the elevator? These are just a few of the many unanswered questions surrounding this case that will hopefully get answered one day soon.
