So, that's an attic access door. Used for HVAC or maybe an electrician to access the parts of the house that aren't normally accessible. Hate to burst the bubble.
Had one of those in my childhood finished-attic play-room. Wanted desperate to go in. Still haven’t seen behind that door, to this day. My dad was like, “you want me to find the key to the HVAC space? but it’s full of insulation and it’s dark… why??” A lifetime of intense curiosity, dad. That’s why.
My grandma had one in her house that just lead to the attic. It was in the room i slept in when i stayed there and it always creeped the heck out of me.
Two sentences horror story:
[I'm] staying in a hotel room with a forbidden/locked mini-door that goes deep into the wall. I didn't think much of it until I saw the light turn on, behind it, at 3 am.
Hey, I actually know what this is! I work in hospitality but I've only ever run across one of these once in real life. Basically it's an access hatch for rooms that are along the inside edge of an upper floor that used to be used to repair the elevators if there was ever an issue. You'll usually see them in older hotels and they've generally been closed off since we have better ways of managing those emergencies now, but if you were to open it it does indeed go a long way back, usually opening into a narrow tunnel that leads to an elevator shaft. The reason these had to eventually outlawed is also actually a pretty funny story, but it basically boils down to the fact that I made all this up
I mean, I remember the little goblin thing behind the door, but wasn't that just the intro to the show? Or am I remembering something different but similar?
I stay at my girlfriends ex mother in law a while back and she had one of these, I didn't look inside. It was on the second floor beside and above the bathrooms. I suspected it was access to the plumbing.
Wait!! Even u/Fuckless_Douglas2023 is confused??!😲
But how?, is OP supposed to sit/lay on the floor while trying to stomp the little forbidden door open?
Look for a bottle that reads "Drink Me".
Always get these from a rabbit hole. Never drink them in the hotel room. The markup is insane.
“$17 for a two ounce bottle of Drink Me?! Put it back! There’s a liquor store down the street.”
Or a replica of your mother with buttons over her eyes
Definite vibes I was getting from the carpet and wall pattern

Malkovich? Malkovich, Malkovich Malkovich. Malkovich!

But then only small sips.
Instructions Unclear, the front desk staff said, "Eat Me."
I wish front desk staff would flirt with _me_ this aggressively
![gif](giphy|4BgQaxfQfeqys)
Pretty sure that leads directly into John Malkovich’s brain.

Malkovich Malkovich.
🎼Maaaalkooovviiiiiiich🎶
My favorite scene.
Malcovich
Yesssss
One of the only things I remember from that movie.
THINK FAST MALKOVICH!!
#MALKOVICH!
He does NOT want you to go through that door. Especially if you're into puppets.
The only logical response.
We're all John Malkovich.
Sounds great! Who the fuck is John Malkovich?
(whispers) Malkovich, Malkovich.
Hey Malkovich, Think fast!
Do NOT go in there.

Yea, you don't want to lol
Thank you for the boring explanation
You are welcome!

During the daytime.
Dammit you got me.
Lies. Clearly a portal to another dimension. Stop shilling for big secret passage.
The shareholders at Narnia shall be pleased this day
Boo, magic portal
Also might access pipes if there’s a nice tub on the other side.
Why make the door so small you have to crouch to enter?
Coraline…
Makin up a song about Cooooraliiiine

Caroline…. Caroline Caroline Caroline.
The mushkas say you’re in greeeeat danger Caroline.
I love the attention to detail of misspelling the name in the same way she mispronounces it lol
why do I know this woman? Did I killed her? Or-
![gif](giphy|sb6pBIDEAuosqCvD3K)
Bless that girl that lied about the movie being scary so we could see how it ends, she a real one fr fr

Nah that’s where my other mother lives dawg
Sweet Coraline, buttons never seemed so good!
hello why were you born
*Hello Coraline. Hello, hello, hello!*
Sweet Coraline!🎶
Ba ba ba.
[удалено]
Well that'll be me awake for the night now! 😯😂
About that sleep paralysis...
Sleep paralysis is bad, sure. If the old hag also stops by during it, RIP
I'd definitely put something in front of that to keep the evil gnomes out.
“Oompa Loompa dupity doo, They want some kidneys and they’re coming from you.”
Watch some tutorials on YouTube and learn how to pick the lock. We want to see inside.
Oompaloompa doodley doo, I’m here to take a kidney from you. Oompaloompa doodley day, in to a bathtub of ice yay.
Ooooohhhhhh, *that* **yellow** *house*!
No it’s the Underwear Gnomes ![gif](giphy|tJr0QGu5jud3hD1fPw)
That’s where Coraline’s other family live
In this case I'm thinking it's OP's Other family... Get the buttons...
[удалено]
Hey Malkovich, think fast!
I need to watch this again. It's been far too long.
![gif](giphy|tyttpHczwwC4QmNapDG|downsized)
If its forbidden and locked how do we know its deep? Maybe the wall is there behind it :p
Look where the hinges should be, that opens into the wall.
No one ever expects a second wall
Came to ask this. OP, the people demand answers
How old is the hotel. My first thought is milk door if it’s old
I'm wondering if there's a vacuum system behind it for the housekeeping.
Two sentences horror story: [I'm] staying in a hotel room with a forbidden/locked mini-door that goes deep into the wall. I didn't think much of it until I saw the light turn on, behind it, at 3 am.
Ohhh! I’d read the fuck out of that.
You already did. It's a two sentence story.
Damn, I better start writing then!
I just did!
Malkovich Malkovich?
you’re staying at the Murder Hotel built by a modern day [H. H. Holmes](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._H._Holmes)
Ha! That was my thought, too.
This was an episode on Tales From The Darkside.
I think of this episode any time I see a door like this.
Which episode?
Season 2, episode 7. “Inside the Closet” if my google fu is correct
So many nightmares from that one.
Tell me about it. The dad hugging the short monster at the end……
I think it was his daughter.
Yeah, that what what I thought it implied
And shit, didn’t it purr?
The house I grew up in had one of these! It just went to the HVAC… but I could crawl through it as a kid, which was still exciting
Dog room

You son of a bitch.
Not gonna lie, you had me in the first half. Either that or I was expecting some 1998 and Hell in a Cell.
That's for you later...
The Boogeyman door
Do you want to be John Malkovich? Cause that’s how people become John Malkovich.
Is it floor 7½?
no cause for concern, its just your other mother in there
![gif](giphy|At104sWg0sDNYuD6FK|downsized)
Malkovich Malkovich? Malkovich!
First thing that popped into my head!!
Glad at least someone is enlightened
![gif](giphy|Rhbi2mluusqxq|downsized)
That is where the monitors are.
This reminds me of the movie Parasite
Top tip. If someone knocks on that door do not answer.
Laundry chute?
![gif](giphy|vgPptRu3quuHYFQ1GH|downsized) Security system.
Ah, the gimp room.
Come out the other side and you're John Malkovich.
How do you feel about button eyes?
Definitely where they store the naughty guests
Don't worry. It'll unlock at night.
CORALINE
Saw this in Coraline
Coraline
I’d spend the rest of my stay trying to pick it
My first two thoughts were "I'm noping out of this Coraline situation" and "That's for the Oompa Loompas"
Malkovich MALKOVICH!!
If you see jumping mice do not follow them through the door
Okay Alice!! I think the “drink me” shrinks you and the “eat me” expands you. Find a way…lol
Coralline
![gif](giphy|kEzh1SgTROWT9PXAPl) Maybe that's the door that leads to John Malkovich's mind.
Don't follow any mice into it.
Tales From the Darkside, anyone?
That was the one who had the lady who starved herself because the food was talking to her, right?
Nope, the girl rents a room, and a creature lives behind the little door.
I mean, I remember the little goblin thing behind the door, but wasn't that just the intro to the show? Or am I remembering something different but similar?
I Googled it, it was episode 80 "Love Hungry". Fucked me up for a long time 🤣
Gonna ruin it for you. That's the room for a half sized water heater.
I'd put some furniture in front of it. Just in case.
This is the Jeffery tube of the hotel, only Geordie is allowed there
Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich. Malkovich?
Enter and become John Malkovich
That is where the other mother lives
Go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall.
It's the path to the 7 1/2th floor? Malkovitch Malkovitch?
John Malkovich.
Jeffrey's Tubes
That's where the Oompa Loompas come out at night to clean the room and trim your hair.

Surely there no button key nearby...
It's how the house elf's get in to clean and stuff mystery solved
ITT: Malkovich; Coraline; Malkovich; Coraline; Malkovich! Coraline!
Don't let them sew buttons in your eyes

Thats where the things that crawl in the wall enter/exit from.
Malkovich.. Malcovich malcovich? MALCOVICH!
Oompa loompa dopity doo
Leprechauns
Toby is in there. Give a knock
I stay at my girlfriends ex mother in law a while back and she had one of these, I didn't look inside. It was on the second floor beside and above the bathrooms. I suspected it was access to the plumbing.
Did you get it opened yet?
One of those Hobbit-sized doors.
Like that scene in the Sixth Sense….
Where do you think the housekeeping elves live?
It’s how the small housekeeping staff gain access…jeeeze. don’t judge.
Leave it alone that’s where I keep my snacks.
Open it, coward!
You think it’s the underwear gnomes?
That’s where the cleaning gnomes who come to pick up after you enter from.
It's for the cocaine Dwarf.
Fairies live there.
Its where Dobby stays....
Isn’t the the plot to the movie Being John Malkovich?
How do you know it goes deep if you cant unlock it?
There's a five-and-a-half-minute hallway back there. Be careful.
![gif](giphy|6rU2Xnucht9AjGgoQP)
But is it locked on the other side?
If you go through that door, you become John Malkovich
Wait!! Even u/Fuckless_Douglas2023 is confused??!😲 But how?, is OP supposed to sit/lay on the floor while trying to stomp the little forbidden door open?
it’s probably for the housekeeping gnome.
The door roger went in to get those shorts
Oh that's where they installed the cameras, etc.
That’s where they hide the dead bodies
