I was a kid in this incredibly large building easily over 100 stories high, and this entire building was an arcade filled with an amazing array of games on ever floor. At the very top of the Building Sat an a middle age man who was the CEO of this arcade and i never saw his face but i despised him regardless. I wanted to make it up to the Top Story of the Arcade to Confront the CEO but the only way i could do that was by beating every single game on the floor. The more floors i progressed the more i came in contact with the ghost. The CEO sent the ghost after me to Keep me in check it seemed, but the ghost never tried to hurt me only scare me. It ws like the Ghost wanted me to Stay in the arcade and never leave. I Finally made it to the Top Floor and i confronted the CEO and asked him why i was in this Arcade and what this place was. He told me that when he was younger he had a beautiful wife and beautiful baby boy. He was the CEO of a very successful company and as his son grew older his interests in video games grew older as well. But the CEO had demons in his head, and he was fighting a battle against his demons that he couldnt win. He tied a noose around his sons neck, "The Most Perfect Noose" and he didnt believe that he would kill the Boy, until he did. He tried to find salvation in therapy but when he couldnt find peace he went to an old anbandoned building from one of his older projects. The arcade was this very same building. The ghost was the spirit of his dead son who found peace in the arcade. The CEO revealed to me he built the arcade tribute to his son, but he also built it in the hopes that somehow someway his son would walk the doors and meet him again. He was right.
