Oh, man that was terrible. My cousins and I used to hang out in our basement when we were little. I was the youngest of all, and my oldest cousin would poke fun and say he was going to put me in this little closet thing that he said was the chokey.

Now, when I was 8, when this happened, I never even saw the movie Matilda, but the name for that awfully dusty, nailed up, death trap just freaked me out. And when I did see the movie, I looked at the chokey, and thought back to that old spikey closet in the basement. My cousin was evil...pure frikkin' evil.
