horror
A mobster wants to join a lodge and for initiation they lock him behind a door with the key hanging outside which can be reached through an opening in the door. The lodge members tell him it is a test to see how long he can remain in a darkened cemetery before he lets himself out, but they decide to move away and change their name since they don't want any criminals in the club. When the crook has had enough, he reaches through the hole in the locked door to get the key, but...he drops it.
