Stackle was a curious lad, who often spent time exploring his basement. One day, while rummaging through the cardboard boxes, he stumbled across a mysterious skull-shaped key. He had never seen it before and wondered what it was for.

He decided to take the key outside and see if it fit any of the doors in town. To his surprise, the key fitted perfectly into every door he tried. He was intrigued and decided to find out what would happen if he used the key to actually open a door.

He chose a door at random and opened it using the skull-shaped key. As soon as the door opened, a loud rumbling sound began to fill the air and a bright light shone from the door. Stackle was startled and stepped back in shock, not sure what to expect.

He slowly stepped forward and peered through the doorway. To his amazement, he saw a world of vibrant colours and strange creatures, unlike anything he had ever seen before. He felt a thrill of excitement as he stepped through the door, his heart racing with anticipation.

Stackle spent the day exploring the strange new land, all the while wondering what else the skull-shaped key could open. After a few hours, he decided to return home. When he stepped back through the door, the rumbling sound stopped and the light faded away. He was back in his own world, but now he knew that something magical existed beyond the door.

He kept the skull-shaped key close to him, never knowing when he might need it again.
