Chuck E. Cheese

This arcade venue and pizza chain is pretty much synonymous with birthday parties and fun with the family. That's why it was so shocking to hear that the restaurant's animatronic mascot has such a dark backstory!

He never had a birthday party growing up, so he took it upon himself to throw parties for other kids. Talk about tragic!
