This room doesn't have much in it, but next to the door leading downstairs sits a curious-looking machine. It's got a giant plastic head on it -- the head of a guy with no hair and completely white skin. Underneath the head is a sign reading "Can you handle this power? I don't think you can handle this power."

Underneath ''that'' is a pair of cylindrical metal handles. They look very grabbable.

*''If all your MP is drained:''
*:Drained, you slump away.

*''If you have any MP left:''
*:That was brisk! As the tingling in your arms begins to fade, the door silently swings open, clearing the way to the next floor of the basement.

Occurs at [[Fernswarthy's Basement]].

*The title of this adventure and its description are a reference to Uncle Fester from The Addams Family.
*The machine itself is reminiscent of certain coin-operated fairground attractions, where a current is passed through the arms of the user via two handle shaped electrodes, often branded with Uncle Fester from the Adams family.
