spike trap

A spike trap is a trap that can do extensive damage when triggered. They are often found in video games and in some adventuring movies.

To be "spike trapped" is to be caught in a situation that is both painful and painfully avoidable. Players of Dungeons and Dragons frequently must "check for traps" to avoid falling into a variety of traps, including spike traps.

The character Kevin McCallister in Home Alone is someone with extensive knowledge of triggered traps, including spike traps.

In adventuring games, spike traps can make dungeon delving difficult. In multiplayer games, such as PUBG, spike traps can be set to inflict harm on your enemy while protecting a particular area.

Spike traps should not be confused with other traps that are more annoying than they are harmful. For instance, in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you can use a Pitfall Seed to lay a trap that is similar in concept to a spike trap, though it is more of an inconvenience than a damage dealing trap.

trap barn

a place, or in reality a barn, where friends and people from all corners of Almont and surrounding areas come to have a good time. these good times normally consist of last second put together party's that always work out somehow in the end. everyone is welcome to this most glorious of hangouts as long as a person isn't sketchy, a creeper, or doesn't know the owners of said trap. the barn comes fully equipped with a Rockstar Bar, gnarly sound system, a random wall, and a few dead bats (one of which hangs on the random wall). during the summer months the heat is fought off with a fan and most of the time it does just fine. when weather gets cold the trapping still continues but in a little fashion, the trap tent comes into play. the trap tent is literally a fort/tent made out of tarps and is built to hold in heat when its cold out.
