You think it's annoying when the elevator stops working and you need to climb three floors to reach your apartment? Be glad you don't have to face the Absurdly Long Stairway. The Absurdly Long Stairway is so incredibly, well, long that ascending it is a serious challenge in itself. The characters will probably be utterly exhausted by the time they get to the top, assuming they will persevere that long. (Descending such a stairway tends to be easier, one way or the other, but not always.) Such stairways may have thousands of steps and stretch for miles. Indeed, sometimes they are literally endless. These stairways can be found in man-made structures (such as very tall towers with no lifts) or more supernatural locations. They can have a major symbolic meaning, about ascension or spiritual uplifting or the like. They can find application both in serious works and in comedy. In the latter case, expect some unlucky Butt-Monkey to trip and tumble all the way down. A notable subset of Absurdly Long Stairways are Absurdly Long Temple Stairways. In Real Life, a somewhat tamer version of this trope is relatively common in temple architecture, and may be observed in various Buddhist, Hindu, and Mesoamerican temples. Sometimes, this is taken to extremes by placing the temple on the slopes - or even the summit - of a mountain, with stairs leading all the way up. The symbolism of ascending to the temple should be obvious; sometimes, as with the Aztecs, the long temple stairs were also used for a Staircase Tumble when they tossed the bodies of sacrificial victims down them. A Stairway to Heaven may be one of these. Can be sometimes found in an It's All Upstairs From Here climax. Compare Endless Corridor. May be an Unnaturally Looping Location. See also Ending by Ascending. |

Ubik makes an ordinary, sixteen-step staircase into one of these, as the character climbing them has had his life-force drained near completely by a local psychic vampire, and crawling up even one step becomes an immense effort. | |

Both Star Ocean: The Second Story and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time end their The Very Definitely Final Dungeon with a needlessly long (straight) staircase leading up to the Final Boss. Especially egregious in that the staircases in each case conclude a long climb up a tower; in the latter game the tower exists in its own pocket dimension on top of that. | |

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon has the second boss at the top of twenty sets of three staircases. Pick one of three, and either keep climbing, or slide all the way back to the beginning. Once you finally get to the top, the boss ghost clearly has a sick sense of humor, as it possesses a flight of stairs to fight Luigi with. | |

My House has a looping spiral staircase, a likely Shout-Out to SCP-087, with doors exiting from all of the "otherworld" areas, including the Backrooms, and back to the main house. The House of Leaves-inspired secret closet maze also contains an endlessly looping staircase around a Bottomless Pit, the mod's only lethal pitfall. | |

Wild ARMs 2: Nearing the end of the game there's the spiral tower, which has an extremely long staircase leading down into the center of the planet. Once you get to the end of the staircase you have to go through another dungeon then fight several minibosses, and the final boss to beat the game. | |

Kung Fu Panda: The Jade Palace sits on the peak of a mountain. There's a single, straight staircase up to it from the valley floor. Naturally, Po spends a good chunk of the first film either climbing those stairs, or tumbling down them. In the sequel, Po and the Furious Five are taken to Lord Shen's throne room at the top of a tall tower. Po has to be carried by one of Shen's guards for half of the way. |

Harry Potter has the stairs at Hogwarts- which extends seven floors plus the dungeons, with a landing between each floor. On top of that, the stairs can change where they lead whenever they feel like it, and since the floors have high ceilings, it's nearly double the steps of a standard building. And this is a school, mind you- not only do the students have to climb the mess to get to classes, but to make it to meals as well! | |

Super Mario 64 has a looping staircase leading to the final stage, with accompanying musicnote It is an auditory illusion known as a Shepard Tone, which seems to continually rise without escaping the upper limits of human hearing that keeps going up as you did. You can climb it forever if you don't have enough stars, but the staircase itself is not actually very big. (The game accomplishes this by silently warping you to a lower position on the stairs once you've ascended enough steps; however, since the game is programmed to do this based on Mario's forward movement cap, and earlier versions of the game have no backward movement cap, you can use glitches like the Backwards Long Jump to rocket up the stairs so quickly it freaks out the code and bypasses the "infinite" staircase effect. The illusion is also broken in the DS version as you can see yourself being warped back on the touch screen minimap.) | |

The SCP Foundation entry, SCP-087 is a dark staircase that seems to go on forever, with what sounds to be a crying child coming at the bottom. Despite this, explorers can never get any closer to the source of the crying, instead encountering a creepy face and running away from it. The second-longest exploration pegged it at just above a mile in depth, and the last (expunged) exploration log determines it's so deep it defies local geology, to the point it may just be infinitely long. | |

In Discworld the Unseen University's Tower of Art is 800 feet tall and along the inside edge of the building are some (very old and infirm) steps which spiral upwards and number 8,888. Several wizard traditions require senior wizards to climb those steps, then spend five minutes being out of breath and wheezing. There may be something supposed to happen after this, but since most UU wizards are elderly and overweight, few ever get enough puff back to carry them out. They still climb the spiral steps though, because it is tradition. Inverted at the other University in Bugarup, where the Tower of Art's stairs are only two stories tall from the bottom, but the Tower's top is about a mile high. Yes, it's taller from the top than from ground level. |

During the raid on the Shinra HQ in Final Fantasy VII, you can either fight your way through the guards, or climb your way up 59 flights of stairs. Barrett whines and complains the whole way up, while Tifa tells him to "stop acting like a retard and climb!" At the end of the stairway, Barrett says he never wants to see any stairs again for the rest of his life. In Final Fantasy VII Remake, the staircase returns, with the same basic premise, but a new spin on the scene and dialogue for the player's entertainment. | |

In War of the Twins of the Dragonlance Legends trilogy, Raistlin's sister Kitiara meets his apprentice, the dark elf Dalamar, at the Tower of High Sorcery. They're clearly attracted to each other right from the start. When he suggests they go to his quarters to talk, she agrees. He pulls her close so he can magically transport them. She tries to push away (though obviously not trying very hard) and says she's perfectly capable of walking. He shrugs and disappears, after which she hears his voice say, "Up the spiral staircase, lord. After the five hundred and thirty-ninth step, turn left." | |

Metal Gear: Metal Gear Solid: The stairway in Communications Tower A is by far the longest in the game, and requires Snake to avoid both security cameras and soldiers. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater: Snake Eater has an absurdly long ladder climb, but it functions more or less the same as a long stairway. Though it is also well-remembered for having an A Cappella version of the eponymous theme playing as Naked Snake climbs the ladder. |

Cradle Series: Elder Whisper's tower is a huge white tower, by far the tallest structure in Sacred Valley, with nothing but a room at the bottom, a room at the top, and a spiral staircase winding up the inside. Anyone of Iron rank (which most people in the Valley hit in their late teens) can make the trip easily with their superhuman body, and even a lower-ranked individual can enhance their body to make the trip without too much trouble. Lindon, as an Unsouled, can barely make it to the top without collapsing in exhaustion. | |

The Lord of the Rings: The peak called Zirak-zigil by the dwarves had a stairway (appropriately enough, called the Endless Stair). It reached from the peak to the bottom of Moria's lowermost natural caverns (so deep that Gandalf calls them "the lowest roots of the mountain"), and its top was destroyed during Gandalf's battle with the Balrog. Somewhat less impressive, but still a challenging climb for mortals, are the Stairs of Cirith Ungol which Frodo and Sam climb to reach the mountain pass into Mordor. |

Invoked in The Wolf of Wall Street. While tripping very heavily and discovering a botched emergency, Jordan Belfort has to get back to his car, at the entrance to a country club. In long shots, you can see it is only about six steps, but in close-up shots (from Jordan's perspective), it's much, much longer than that. | |

In the first episode of Doki Doki Pre Cure, Mana runs up an extremely long staircase all the way to the top of the Clover Tower (which is similar to the real life Tokyo Tower) in order to fight a monster, even though she hasn't become a Pretty Cure yet at that point. | |

The Tower of Fanatics in Final Fantasy VI is nothing but identical flights of stairs with random encounters in which your characters can use nothing but magic. Every twenty flight of stairs or so there's a treasure room, but there's nothing else to break the monotony, and the atmospheric music adds to the repetitive, endless dread. Overclock Remix's dark, brooding rendition is even called The Endless Stair. | |

Star vs. the Forces of Evil: In "Page Turner", Glossaryck is called before the Magic Council, which is atop a high tower. Unfortunately, the elevator is "on the fritz", so he has to take the stairs. After running the incredibly long flight of stairs, he ends up back on the first floor, because the stairs are also on the fritz. | |

Rendezvous with Rama: The interior of the eponymous gigantic cylindrical spaceship, 54 kilometres long, has three extremely long ladders leading down from its airlocks at the hub. And then there come stairways with "thousands upon thousands" of steps. Getting from the airlock down the ladders and stairs, to one end of the cylinder, takes the protagonists three chapters. Though it's highly likely it's all a triple-redundant emergency backup system, and the Ramans normally used some sort of smaller vessel or vehicle to travel around their ship's interior. | |

The Eyrie in A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones is a castle atop a very high, sheer mountain. It can only be reached by a stairway that takes all day to climb and is so narrow that it has to be ascended in single file, making it more or less impregnable to attacking armies. | |

Final Fantasy The Tower of Fanatics in Final Fantasy VI is nothing but identical flights of stairs with random encounters in which your characters can use nothing but magic. Every twenty flight of stairs or so there's a treasure room, but there's nothing else to break the monotony, and the atmospheric music adds to the repetitive, endless dread. Overclock Remix's dark, brooding rendition is even called The Endless Stair. During the raid on the Shinra HQ in Final Fantasy VII, you can either fight your way through the guards, or climb your way up 59 flights of stairs. Barrett whines and complains the whole way up, while Tifa tells him to "stop acting like a retard and climb!" At the end of the stairway, Barrett says he never wants to see any stairs again for the rest of his life. In Final Fantasy VII Remake, the staircase returns, with the same basic premise, but a new spin on the scene and dialogue for the player's entertainment. |

There's a storyline from the Tom Baker days that involves Leela and the Fourth Doctor having to use the stairs inside the Tardis to get between floors. There are at least sixty-seven internal floors. |

Because the Man Cave is over a mile underground, they have to climb up over 240 flights of stairs to reach Junk 'N' Stuff. A lot of wacky hilarity ensues. | |

The archives are in an "underground tower more than a mile high," concealed beneath the Hamburg bookshop he manages. At the very bottom he keeps his own creation, a living tarot deck, which has become corrupt and extremely dangerous, such that when he tries to destroy the cards, they overpower him and escape. Too weak after the battle to manifest his wings, he must climb the staircase on foot. | |

She proceeds to climb up them, singing "Family Madrigal"... but as she goes up to them, she grows increasingly tired ("There's so many stairs in la casa Madrigal") and the singing gets more and more strained and flat ("You'd think there'd be another way to get so high up 'cause we're magic but no!"), until Mirabel practically growls out this: Even Bruno admit it. As he appears to be more comfortable in his hidden room and recalls his old room as being “a lot of stairs.� |
