Липовый лифт

The elevator's unusual features and the dark humor feel so unique. I'm curious whether the author envisioned it from the start or it evolved during writing.

Their resilience in the face of such bizarre dangers made me wonder how much of their resourcefulness was inspired by classic fairy tales or other stories.

The tone is so distinct—funny yet unsettling. I wonder if this balance was intentional to keep kids engaged without losing the message.
