A house equipped with traps or other defensive mechanisms meant to deter intruders. Some examples of common traps may include spike pits, venomous snakes, crocodile pit, and poisionous gas. If you hear of such a trap house in your neighborhood, it is advised you stay out to prevent certain death.
On rare occasions, these houses can be constructed for entertainment purposes, similar to an escape room. This tests the courage of the people willing to enter and those who are lucky enough to escape will live to tell the tale.

Isaac: “But what is ‘free will’ really? Does anyone really have it?”
Michael: “I dunno if you think about how we make decisions, they could already be determined by subconscious out of our control”
Desmond: “True, just because you feel like you’re choosing-”
Adé: “-NO! STOP! Don’t fall for the Tangent Trap! We were talking about good colleges.”

A trauma trap is a person on Instagram or other social media platforms who posts intentionally triggering or divisive content under the guise of vulnerability, education, or advocacy. While their posts may appear relatable or well-meaning on the surface, the real motive is to stir emotional reactions, spark arguments, and gain attention to boost engagement and follower counts. Instead of fostering healing or awareness, trauma traps exploit sensitive topics to manipulate algorithms and grow their personal brand—often at the expense of genuine connection or collective understanding.
