Missing Floor | comment |
Every building housing a top secret spy or military operation seems to have a "beyond top secret floor". Like a Secret Room, except it's a whole floor. There's no obvious button for it in the elevators, you can't reach it by stairs, and of course nobody has ever heard of it. Most realistic is a sub-basement, but it could also be higher than the highest official floor, or even squeezed in between floors — though in the last two cases, it's questionable how they've managed to keep it hidden at all, since anyone looking out a window could get suspicious. Typically either magic or sufficiently advanced technology is involved in keeping such a floor hidden. Finding it is a major plot point. It might have been closed off long ago (since it houses a Dark Secret or Black Site) or it's still being used by the Beyond Top Secret club. In any case, don't expect to just walk in here, not even if you do have security clearance. A variation of this trope involves lettered building wings (like those of airports) or suite/room numbers (like in an office complex or a hotel). You might be going down a hotel hallway and there will be rooms numbered 210, 211, 212, and 214 — no room 213. While it could technically be any number, four and thirteen are fairly common choices. |

In Ghoul School for the NES, the left half of the school can only be accessed via the roof. To get there, you must get on the elevator, press up, and hold it down, at which point the elevator will shake as though resisting, then rise to the unmarked ceiling. There's no indication that you need to do this. | |

The Pretender has sub-level 27, which became a major focal point for the series — as it progressed, it became hard to find anything that wasn't a result of something that happened on SL-27. Although strictly speaking almost everything in the Centre took place on 'missing floors'....from the outside the Centre was just a few stories tall, but it had 27 floors underground. The part above ground was used for counseling and legit psychological testing, and the basement sublevels were used for all the illegal stuff. It's just that SL-27, the very bottom sub-level, was even secret from most of the people who worked there. |

Arrow: For a short time, the Arrowcave is in a subbasement accessed via a secret elevator in the Palmer Technologies building, that the board of directors don't know about. Spoofed in the Fight Club promo where our heroes take the elevator with a fangirl Palmer Tech employee who starts squeeing over them. At the end of the promo, Ray Palmer smashes through the ceiling in his Powered Armor because he didn't know about the elevator. | |

In the Star Trek: A Time to... series, the Federation embassy on Qo'nos has a secret subbasement. In book 7, A Time to Kill, Section 31 has a listening post there. The listening post is moved elsewhere after Ambassador Worf visits it; although he's the Federation ambassador to the Klingon Empire post-Deep Space Nine, he isn't supposed to know about the post. In book 9, A Time for War, a Time for Peace, Worf puts the now-empty subbasement to good use as he retakes the embassy from a Klingon terrorist group. |

The War Against the Chtorr. The Uncle Ira Group is located on the 13th floor of a hotel in Denver, reached by a private elevator. The first-person protagonist mentions that "controlled-access architecture" is nothing unusual in this 20 Minutes into the Future world, as hotels use them for guests who need extra security and privacy. You'd only realise it was there if you walked the fire stairs, and if asked the hotel would claim it was a service floor. They just wouldn't mention what service. | |

SCP Foundation: SCP-476 is a road map listing several nonexistent locations which can only be reached by people regularly consulting the map. SCP-1483 is this trope applied to an entire continent: it is a much warmer version of the continent of Antarctica, with a "Third Antarctic Empire", that can only be accessed through a portal hidden in a crevasse in our universe's Antarctica. SCP-3790 has a seventh sub-basement level that is visible through the floor of the elevator, but the lift mechanism has been modified so that it's no longer accessible. |

Whateley Universe likes this one; all the cottages have at least one hidden basement floor, where they keep the exercise equipment and cottage vaults that Muggles shouldn't see or have access to, and the required display is hidden as well (because, after all, you don't want people just walking in and seeing that you've got several tons of gold just sitting around). And that's not even counting the hidden tunnels, and laboratories and workshops, and the testing areas that are all buried underground, too. It's Lampshaded in mentions that they have to be very careful about where they tunnel these days, or risk sections of the school falling into a sinkhole. | |

Mornington Crescent station on London Underground's Northern Line closed in 1992 so that the lifts could be replaced. However funding ran out and the work was stopped, and for six years trains would pass through slowly but never stop. The station itself still appeared on Underground maps, but crossed out. The work was eventually completed and the station was reopened in 1998 by the cast of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue. | |

In the Evil episode "E Is for Elevator", the team investigate a missing teenage couple in a NY high rise. They discover that the couple had been playing the urban legend "Elevator Game", where supposedly if you get on an elevator and go to certain floors in a certain order, the elevator will go all the way down to Hell. Ben ends deciphering the number order and the elevator takes him to a forgotten sub-basement that the building management is completely unaware of. The missing couple both independently became trapped down there with no cell service and no way to recall the elevator once it departed, and they died of thirst. Ben ends up trapped as well, but David and Kristen are able to rescue him. | |

In the Necroscope saga by Brian Lumley, the ESPionage group E-Branch has their base on the top floor of a hotel. Although people working at the hotel — and anyone who cared to count the hotel's floors, go inside, and ask for a room on the top floor, and look at the floor number — know that there is a top floor, it has its own elevator and fire escape, and is stated to belong to a group of "International Entrepreneurs"note This is a Shout-Out to the James Bond novels where 007 worked for a front company for the UK Government called "Universal Exports".. | |

Tower Of The Sorcerer has three. The first one is obvious, since the stairs from floor 42 go direct to floor 44. The intervening floor 43 can only be accessed by obtaining the "wings to fly up", which move you up one floor wherever you use them. There are also "wings to fly down", and one puzzle depends on using these to access floor 0. Finally, the floors come in groups of ten, but the highest floor accessible by stairs is floor 49. There is a floor 50, which you reach during the game's ending. | |

Silent Hill: Silent Hill: Inverted with the fourth floor of Alchemilla hospital. The hospital actually only has three floors, but a fourth floor button mysteriously appears in the elevator after you've looked around for a bit. It takes you to the nightmarish Otherworld. Silent Hill 2 subverts this trope in Toluca Prison, whose basement level is shown on the map, but the morgue on said level and the door leading to it are not. Similarly, in Silent Hill 3, after the phone call in the hospital, you go through a Missing Door that wasn't there before, that leads you to the alternate hospital. Several floors of the Office Building in Silent Hill 3 only exist, or at least can only be accessed in the Dark World. The sixth floor is not accessible at all. The Evil Brookhaven Hospital in part 3 has three basement floors (two of which don't exist in the normal world), but only B3 is accessible. |

The fifth The Garden of Sinners movie contains a variation in that it's an entire half of a building that's hidden through the use of an elevator that slowly rotates as it ascends and deposits you on the opposite side of the building than you expected. This is so Araya Souren can carry out a magical experiment with Artificial Humans in one half the building reenacting their last day alive and their original (dead) selves in the other, with their original brains located in the basement powering the whole system. | |

This was used to great effect in an episode of The Real Ghostbusters, when Janine dons her 5th Ghostbuster gear to track down the missing quartet. She traces them to a building, but can't find them anywhere within it. When she rides the elevator, she notes the missing thirteenth floor but dismisses it as superstition, until she notices that it takes too long to go from floor 12 to floor 14. One emergency stop button and one proton-pack charged "lock-pick" later and she's found a ghost floor, complete with ghost receptionist. | |

Dollhouse: Agent Ballard locates the building containing the Dollhouse, but after going on site can't find anything suspicious. So he does some research and discovers that in addition to the usual contractors the builders hired an environmental systems consultant, an expert in buildings that recycle their own air, water and power — which you'd need for underground floors that you're trying to keep secret from anyone else in the building. | |

When Neal starts to actively seek the mystery girl who has been appearing to him in dreams and on billboards in the movie Interstate 60, he's directed to an appointment on the 13th floor of a building. When he gets in the elevator, however, there is no button for the 13th floor. Luckily, there's a new poster from his dream girl on the wall of the elevator. This poster reminds him that 10 + 3 = 13. He pushes the buttons for 10 and 3 simultaneously, and the elevator takes him to the missing floor. | |

In One Piece, the World Government's great prison Impel Down has multiple underwater floors, with the prisoners assigned to a level based on how dangerous they're considered to be. Level 1, the closest to the surface, is for the least dangerous prisoners, while the most dangerous go to Level 5. When Luffy sneaks into the prison to rescue his older brother, the infamous pirate Ace, naturally he's assumed to be on Level 5. It turns out that Ace was actually being held on Level 6, a secret level where the World Government places even more dangerous prisoners such as Crocodile and Jimbei. There's also Level 5.5, located between Levels 5 and 6, that was created by prisoners who escaped from their cells but had no means to escape from the prison itself. | |

There are several missing floors in Mirage (1965): On his way down the stairs of the Unidyne building (Manhattan), the hero notices that the 13th floor is missing. His Love Interest remarks that this is because the natives are superstitious. Later the hero uses a special key to get to the Major's office on the otherwise inaccessible 65th floor. There are four other missing floors. At the beginning the hero chases a woman down the stairs in the dark (the power has been shut off) and goes down four sub-basements to emerge in the boiler room. Later those floors aren't there. He has amnesia but doesn't know it yet. Those four floors below ground is where he worked in a lab in California. It's a random memory. |

Doctor Who: "The Runaway Bride": The elevator of the H.C. Clements building has a button for the "Lower Basement", which the Doctor notes is curiously absent on the official floor plans. In a rare example involving stairs instead of an elevator, in "The Lodger", people who go up the stairs to the second floor loft above Craig's flat tend to disappear. When Craig's best friend/secret crush Sophie visits the second floor loft, Craig and the Doctor follow her. Meanwhile, Amy (who is stuck in the TARDIS outside of space and time) contacts the Doctor and informs him that she was able to find the plans for Craig's apartment building. "There is no upstairs!" Turns out there's a spaceship parked on top of the building, disguised as a second floor and using a Perception Filter so people won't notice the building only used to have one floor. |

The Wayside School book series takes place in a 30-story school building. (It was supposed to be one story, with thirty rooms... The builder was very sorry.) Miss Zarves teaches on the 19th floor. The nineteenth floor doesn't exist. How can that be? The builder forgot to include it. Each book is thirty "stories" long, and in each of the first three books the nineteenth story is about Miss Zarves. In the first book, the nineteenth chapter is simply "There is no Miss Zarves. There is no 19th story. Sorry." In the second book, one character Lampshades this and wonders why the numbering isn't just shunted down after floor 18. She ends up stuck on the nineteenth story for three chapters, which are naturally chapters 19, 19, and 19. While there, she meets students that other characters made up in previous chapters. The next chapter fixes the numbering by being "Chapter 20, 21, & 22". In the third book, the nineteenth chapter features Miss Zarves complaining about never being noticed, as well as a cow who won't leave her room (which is a Call-Back to the beginning of the book). Later, in chapter 27, some students play a game where they bounce a ball off the school, scoring points based on which story it hits. At the end, the janitor takes a shot at it, and gets the ball somewhere between the eighteenth and twentieth stories. The ball doesn’t come back down. There is no nineteenth story. In the fourth book, Miss Zarves shows up eight chapters late, when Mrs. Jewls and her students need a place to hide from the Cloud of Doom. They end up spending chapter 28 in the nineteenth story, until one of the kids volunteers to cut off Miss Zarves' longest fingernail. |

Dragon Ball: Muscle Tower's floor numbering does not make sense. The Mobile Maze floor that comes after the 4th floor is unnumbered even though you have to go through it to get to the 6th floor so logically it should be the 5th. The floor that is numbered 5th, which is the home of a dangerous monster, is only accessed through a trap door in the 6th. | |

In the Babylon 5 episode "Grey 17 is Missing", all the levels in sector Grey beyond 16 are mislabeled, with Grey 17 actually being the 18th level and so on. The actual 17th level had been sealed off during construction of the station and the elevators programmed to stop according to the new numbering system. Since sector Grey consisted entirely of the station's industrial facilities that were only visited by maintenance crews, it took four years before anyone noticed that the elevator takes twice as long to get from level 16 to 17 than between all other levels, and that was only because the Properly Paranoid security chief took it upon himself to investigate the discrepancy between the station's plans and the actual numbering when he found out about it. The hidden level was used as a hideout by a doomsday cult who sealed themselves in with an alien monster. | |

The I Dream of Jeannie episode "One of Our Hotels is Growing" has the main characters attempt to book a room in a filled-up hotel, so Jeannie just magically creates a 13th story and books the room there, when the Bellows know that the hotel in question only has twelve floors. Cue much confusion from the hotel staff and the Bellows, while Tony and Jeannie simply denied that there was anything unusual about the floor at all. | |
