In front of you lies what looks to be a fort made of cardboard boxes of all shapes and sizes. There is a space for you to crawl into it, and reluctantly you do. Inside you find....
Nothing.
You're about to leave disappointed when the floor collapses and you fall down a slide (the floor is instantly repaired by ninja kitties).
You are now in a long room. At the end lies a bowl full of candy and a door marked "Exit." However, along the walls lie laser turrets, who seem very happy that they have a new thing to play with. Especially since there is a lack of portal guns.
However, for the ones who aren't as adventurous, there is a small bowl of candies behind you and another exit. However in the bowl is just small single pieces of candy, the kind that come in multi-packs of candy, these are all opened and individually tossed in the bowl. Across the room are large un-opened BAGS of candy.
Take your pick, and Happy Halloween.

*raises walls of fire so that the turrets cannot get to her, runs to grab the large bowl of candy and gets out of here*

Imagine if you will, a turret. One so devoted to killing its prey, death, for it, is the meaning of life.
The personification of death (played by Murray Hamilton) comes to collect the turret's last victim, who'd been killed, not by the turrets, but by his own character fault in a horribly ironic way.
And the narrator (Rod Serling) appears at the end of the room. The end with the bowl of candy, so as to provide an eerie sort of closure.
Ominousness abound in the twilight zone.

A grin spreads across Coaster's face as he surveys the extensive security measures.
"This is right up my alley. Retired spies and laser turrets go together like... ham and vanilla pudding."
(If only I weren't so out of practice...)
He takes a machine part out of his bag and tosses it into the mesh of lasers in order to determine whether they are of the motion-detecting variety, heat-seeking, or merely biologically homing.

Coaster supposes that since the lasers didn't fire, but missiles did, that there is twofold security: motion-detecting missiles and biologically-homing lasers. Being turrets, their sources could rotate, meaning this was more than simply a standard laser web puzzle, and having missiles, it was worse than those things in Dodongo's Cavern.
Coaster pauses and rationalizes further.
Seeing as lasers are as fast as light, this could complicate things. Especially since some sort of pony AND a creepy narrator have already gone through (with their walls of fire and surreal monologue) and grabbed the bowl of candy.
Still, he relishes a challenge, so he decides to do what any rational NTWFer would do. Well, after grabbing a piece of single candy, of course.
Put on a reflective blanket, ignore the laws of physics, and run through those lasers.
He makes it about halfway before one of the slower missiles hits and disintegrates the blanket, leaving him in a niche conveniently out of the lasers' line of sight.
"I should have just hit the exit..."

TURRETS! ;____; Turrets, how about we become friends. 8D Would you like that? Would you let me get to the big bowl of candy alive in return for hugs?

Standing from his fall, Shade looks around to confirm that no one saw him embarrassingly fall down a totally obvious trap that anyone could have seen.
"Now, what do we have here..?"
Turrets, alright... Missiles, lasers, "Hey, this is just like summer camp! So... can't I just blow everything up?" He smiles maliciously, ready to destroy everything ever should that be a viable option that won't create a giant golem made of broken turrets and cannons. It sucks when that happens.
