Ransom [ DOORS / The Archives ]

The Archives are a sub-level in DOORS. You can access them by purchasing or finding a skeleton key and two lock picks at the hotel, then locating a secret passage behind the closet in Room 60 and using those items to open the door. This level was created by Curious Light. Visually, the level is a huge, convoluted complex resembling endless offices, warehouses, and bureaucratic labyrinths.

The main boss, Honcho—a paper-like humanoid creature in a suit with a face smeared into a black square—is, according to records, 213 years old. He oversees the sorting of boxes and desperately wants to escape from the Archives.

Entities inhabiting this place:

Alma — a deadly entity capable of killing with a single blow. She looks like a woman who doesn’t like the way she looks. She is dressed entirely in black, with long, loose black hair. She has pale skin and glowing, empty eyes.

Bash —a fiery monster that burns the player in its path rather than scaring them.

Ribs—absolutely friendly plastic fish in an aquarium that you can feed.

Teller — the Archivist. He sits behind the counter in the Archives; he looks like a humanoid creature in formal attire, whose head has been replaced by a retro TV or monitor displaying an interface or a face. He hands out a ticket with a specific number (the number of rooms you must pass through with him); at the end, on the ticket, Teller blocks the door and gives you a couple of seconds to hand him the ticket; if you do, he’ll simply eat it and shut down, clearing the way for you to proceed; if not, Teller will attack you and kill you.

Scribbles — Looks like a chaotic pile of papers, with a face seemingly scribbled in pencil on the paper; it flickers erratically and moves through the rooms, scattering drawings (which are quite sharp) throughout them.

There are also Drones (shadows of people with paper-like facial features drawn in pencil or pen. Also at 6:00 am and 9:00 am a huge crowd of drones runs through the corridors for a couple of seconds, moving in an unknown direction. ), Forget-Me-Nots (blue flowers that bite their victims), and the Porter (a distorted reflection of the victim that appears if you stare into a mirror for too long).

Ransom — A creature that behaves like ransomware. It can appear next to a person at any moment; if the person freezes, Ransom will leave them alone and simply disappear after a second. If not, Ransom will fly into a rage and strike the person on the head with a stop sign, thereby activating its virus and causing all screens in the archives to display a red screen, with his flickering face, while the victim sees a warning window stating that their files have been encrypted and must be decrypted by paying 500 coins within 1 minute and 30 seconds. If the victim manages to collect 500 coins, Ransom will release the victim, decrypt their files, and disappear; if not, Ransom will attack with a scream and kill the victim.

The Hotel is the first floor that players encounter in the game DOORS. It is a typical old-fashioned hotel inhabited by various entities intent on killing anyone who enters.

Entities — paranormal beings in the hotel. They may be employees or guests of the hotel who have been subjected to Limbo. This is suggested by the code on the angel statue in the Courtyard (room/door 89). They can pose a danger to people, attempting to kill or injure them. However, some of them may help people or guide them.

Also, doors 30–40 are the area where Seek usually appears. Door 50 is a library inhabited by the entity Figure. After door 61, there will be a room resembling an infirmary with white beds. From doors 90 to 99, the hotel rooms give way to dark conservatory rooms. And the final door, number 100, is the electrical room where you need to repair and switch on the power to activate the lift.

Also, outside the window it is always dark and raining with a thunderstorm. And it seems this place is constantly changing, generating different rooms for each person individually (unless they are together at the same time).

On the ground floor (of the hotel), there are three entities that are on the player’s side. The Guiding Light is one of the architects (there are three in total) (it glows blue, and upon each death, a moon symbol appears which helps the deceased person with advice on how to deal with the entities) and then resurrects the deceased person. He can also grant the cross his power, turning it into a weapon against the entities, though not against all of them, as the Guiding Light cannot eliminate the strongest ones due to the mischievous light (the red light and the third architect, who is on the entities’ side), which intervenes; therefore, entities such as Seek or the Figure can only be held back for a couple of seconds, but not eliminated for the time being.

Jeff and El Goblin — Friendly entities; El Goblin looks like a small red fox with a gold ring in one ear and wearing brown shorts, as well as spikes on his wrists. He mostly sits next to Bob (the skeleton) and, speaking with a Mexican accent, chats to people; that’s about it. Jeff looks like glowing blue eyes with tentacles in the dark; he is a vendor who sells various items, one of which is a cross. He never shows any aggression towards people. Essentially, the shop starts at door 54 (where the signs directing people are located) and the shop itself is at door 56
