The story explores what happens when fascination turns into a dangerous obsession. Thompson joins the club and soon finds himself in a creepy room, where he is presented with a book covered in human skin. He reads the story inside, which consists of only two words: "You're dead." Thompson then spirals from curiosity to fear as he realizes that the horror of those two words is unavoidable. Each time he reads the story, his fear grows, eventually causing him to lose his mind, stuck between screams and reading. The story is a scary exploration of the effects horror can have on a person.
