Can you give an example of a 'pull the chain and time passes story'?
There might be a story set in an old mansion. There is a strange contraption in the attic. A young boy pulls the chain on it. Immediately, the room starts to transform. The furniture changes styles as if decades are passing by. With each successive pull of the chain, he witnesses different historical periods within the mansion, from the Victorian era to the modern day, showing how time passes with the pulling of the chain.
Imagine a time - traveling train. There is a special chain in one of the compartments. When a passenger pulls the chain, the train starts to move through different time zones. The view outside the window changes from ancient civilizations to the future world. With every pull of the chain, the train jumps further in time, and the passenger experiences the passage of time in a very direct and extraordinary way. This could be an example of a 'pull the chain and time passes story'.
