I was in complete darkness, save for the red light from the exit sign. It was tempting to run back through the door, but I had just entered, and I had to go through the entire place; I had little choice.

I slowly walked along the hallway. Aged children's drawings could be seen on the walls. They mainly consisted of a cartoon bear, but a few contained a purple bunny and a yellow chicken.

I then turned towards the doorway on the left and found a new hallway going right with brighter lights. Or rather, one spotlight on the ground shining on my face. From what I could see, there was what looked like a yellow head on the ground. It was clearly from an animatronic animal. There were more drawings on the wall, as well as a broken mask. It looked like it belonged on some sort of puppet.

At the end of that hall was a miniature game arcade full of old-school game cabinets. With the sudden dim background lighting, the lights on the screens seemed like the sun! The hallway went on towards the left a bit before I had to make another left and enter a new hallway. The lighting here was dim, as well, but I could still see more drawings decorating the walls.

A little bit forward revealed a new room with a purple animatronic shell to my immediate left with a single blaring light shining out its right eye socket. The only thing present on the shell was a head and torso. I kept going forward and entered yet another room with another animatronic head to my left, only this time, it was a red fox head with an eyepatch covering an eye socket. The other socket had a light illuminating the hallway to my right, which was my only option to move towards.

As I went down this hallway, I heard what sounded like a music-box style song coming from the ceiling. It sounded familiar, yet catchy.

I turned right and found myself back in the hallway with the purple animatronic. I kept going forward, though, and I found a hallway with a greenish tint. To my left was a giant glass window. A peek inside revealed what looked like some sort of office. I saw a black chair, as well as a few drawings ono the walls. Everything else was hard to picture.

Finally, I made another left. Within a few feet, I saw a red-green hue on a wall. It was a door with a giant EXIT sign on it. I walked towards it, feeling somewhat relieved. Along the way, I saw an animatronic shell similar to the other one, but was brown.

"AIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!"

At the sound of that screech, I screamed loudly and bolted towards the exit door! I almost tripped as I pushed the thing open and ran for a few more feet before slowing down and clutching my chest.

I looked up and saw two men my age on the ground with laughter. Their faces were as red as Super Mario's hat! Finally, the one with the golden hair got up and wiped tears from his eyes.

"Dude, you should have TOTALLY seen your face!!!" he said as he took slow, deep breaths with a giant grin plastered.

"Okay, I admit you got me," I told them both with a smile.

"GOT you?!" the other one with the dark mullet and sunglasses asked. "Dude, we scared the living hell out of you!"

"Okay, yes," I admitted, "but I think if you're going to be adding frights like that, it shouldn't be at the dead end of the attraction."

"Yeah, we're aware of that, Eric," the blonde said as he quickly got into a serious mood. "Guy and I have been trying to find ways to add more scares besides the darkness and occasional empty shell."

"I did like the use of that music, though," I told Guy. "Where'd you find it?"

"In one of the endoskeleton voice boxes," He replied as he readjusted his shades. "Chuck said the old employee we're working with said it was called the, uh...Tor-something March."
