There was an arcade at the old building. It was only open during school hours. Kids would ditch school to go there. It was ran by a man named Dr Insidious. He wasn't a real doctor, and that was just the name he used. One day an arrogant annoying boy skipped school and told him his games were too easy. Unaffected, Dr Insidious challenged him to his own game-skull dice.

If the boy rolled the dice and a skull appeared Dr Insidious would win. There were 6 sides to the dice with one skull. The boy weighing in on his odds rolled the dice. The skull appeared. Dr Insidious claimed the boy's soul.
