Must Be Invited	comment	Going back in various mythologies is the idea that supernatural beings — such as vampires, ghosts, demons, witches, what have you — cannot enter into a home unless invited to do so. Often such beings will try to gain entrance by tricking a person into believing they are someone else. Once invited, don't expect locked doors to be an obstacle to their entry. This trope is very old. Traditionally, this trope applied to mythical creatures in general, and there's a load of things that are supposed to invite them in, like putting new shoes on the table, or bringing white hawthorn into the house. Now you know. Its applications to different types of supernatural creatures have expanded over the years. More often than not the original conceptions of these mythical creatures are identifiable by this trope. Today, this requisite is almost exclusively associated with vampires, a mark Dracula left on vampire fiction, but there are a few other creatures that this trope pops up for on occasion; ghosts, demons and fairies being among the most common. Interestingly, the definition of "home" in this case can be rather loose; a temporary/mobile shelter like a tent, or a resting place (tomb/crypt) are included as long as the person hiding there is its owner or resident. To compensate, the invite may come from anyone within (like a servant or another guest), and any house where the visitor has been previously (while still alive, for instance) is fair game. For any story that examines the trope in detail, expect to see creatures dealing with common buildings where the public is invited, invitations are explicit or implied, and the concept of revocation of invitation to be played with. A particularly common gag involves the implications of putting a "Welcome" mat outside your door. Sub-Trope of Supernatural Repellent. Related to Sacred Hospitality, which also treats the etiquette of hospitality as Serious Business. Invited as Dinner, in which the predator invites the unwitting prey instead of the other way around, can be considered an inversion of the examples regarding vampires. For supernatural beings that ask for hospitality, see Angel Unaware.

Must Be Invited / int_11b7db91	comment	Adventure Time: In the episode "May I Come In?", the gang deals with a vampire called Hierophant, who is beholden to the old ways, which includes needing an invitation. Peppermint Butler knows this and taunts him from the door. Later, Jake uses his shapeshifting powers to turn into a house for the others to hide in, and again Hierophant can't go in. Hierophant is finally defeated when a random character accidentally bumps into him and knocks him inside House Jake. He freaks out about entering without an invitation and turns to dust. Curiously, none of the other vampires have this problem - the Hierophant seemed to be holding himself to a certain standard, as a self-proclaimed "old-school revenant". Subverted with the titular entities in "Blank Eyed Girl", who all come and go as they please despite the legends to the contrary.

Mel starts to Pull the Thread as the vampires broke into her apartment earlier to search it and killed a child there, but how could they have done that if she never invited them in? She realises that Urkonn actually killed the child to motivate her to become the Slayer.

It's less an issue for being invited into buildings, and more an issue for being invited into their victims' lives. Also, they cheat mercilessly; Michael Crawford putting a wedding ring on a statue-form Nephilim's finger counts as an invitation, even though he was just looking for somewhere safe to put it for a moment. Hide Me Among the Graves includes some of the traditional variations, including a woman inviting her ex-husband in not knowing he's been vampirized, and a woman inviting her dead son in even though she does know what he's become.

Must Be Invited / int_41b0198a	comment	In The Dresden Files: There are two factors that determine whether supernatural creatures can enter. Buildings have a "Threshold" - the more a dwelling is a home rather than just a house, e.g. a well-loved home that has been part of the family for generations has a much stronger threshold than a second house that is rarely used by the bachelor owner. Thresholds are also temporarily weakened by the intrusion of strangers, even ordinary muggles, or being used as a business-place. The second is how magical the creature is. A wizard can enter any home uninvited without damage, but their magical abilities will be weakened while in there. Creatures like demons use bodies of magical ectoplasm to exist in the world and so trying to enter uninvited disrupts their magic, weakening their abilities much more than wizards, and can destroy their bodies entirely. The strength of the threshold determines how severe this effect is. A good way to appreciate this scale is to observe how it affects the three known courts of Vampires. A White Court is mainly a human with a demon tagging along inside; (s)he can cross, but loses access to the demon while inside. A Red Court is mainly a demon with a human skin; crossing is dangerous and debilitating. A Black Court vampire is completely reliant on magic to continue living; they can't cross at all. One noted exception to this effect are The Fair Folk; due to their strict adherence to Sacred Hospitality, they're allowed to cross a threshold intact on the condition they don't leave the place or its inhabitants worse than when they entered, and must obey all laws of Sacred Hospitality when in that place. This is the reason why the protagonist ponies up rent money for an office for his Occult Detective business separate from his residence despite not making much money out of it. As a bachelor living alone, his home's Threshold is on the weak side as it is, and would only get weaker if he makes it a place where other people are supposed to come and go like an office. It's yet another factor contributing to his Perpetual Poverty. Dresden makes a point of asking for an invitation, not just because of magical ramifications, but also because it's polite. Rudolph the rookie cop snorts at that and calls him "Dracula". The threshold also oftentimes serves as a makeshift test against possible shapeshifters. In Summer Knight Dresden asked if he can enter Murphy's home and her response was simply, "I don't know, can you?" It works as a test because Murphy never officially invited Dresden in. In a reversal where the host is a magical being and the one seeking an invitation is a muggle, Sacred Hospitality must be observed to any invited guest at parties hosted by supernatural beings. If a person sneaks in under false pretenses, such as a forged invitation to a party, or was not formally recognized by the host as a party to the invited guests, the Hospitality need not apply if the host doesn't wish it.

Must Be Invited / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural: In the episode "Everybody Loves a Clown", the Rakshasa is shown to have this limitation. It gets around it by dressing up as a clown and tricking children into letting it in. Vampires also exist in the series, but are not stated to require invitations to people's homes — given that John says "most vampire myths are crap", it may be that they don't. In a variation, angels require permission to possess a human vessel, and the permission must be reiterated if an angel leaves the vessel and then wants to return to it, whereas demons can come and go as they please. This limitation turns out to be a good thing in season five, when Michael and Lucifer want to possess Dean and Sam respectively, but can't without their say-so, and the angel/demon contrast comes into play in season nine when Sam is possessed by a malevolent angel, who buries Sam in a mental fantasy and refuses to leave him. Dean asks Castiel to enter his brother and explain what's going on so Sam can cast the antagonistic angel out, but Castiel can't because the angel won't give him permission and Sam isn't able to. Crowley doesn't have this problem, however, and so he does it instead. Unfortunately, permission obtained by lying, torture, manipulation, or coercion works just as well as permission willingly given, and not all angels are above that.

The luckless guard is a vampire who really wants to fit into human society and to do a regular job. However, he cannot do a cell search, anywhere, because the cons refuse to let him into their cells. As the governor reluctantly concedes, the cons have found a valid loophole. In another story, vampire policewoman Sally von Humperding is refused entry into a hotel in Far Ãœberwald, who know all about vampires trying to get in by night, and aren't having it. The person she needs to speak to inside the hotel is a Witch who is renting a room there. After some thought, the Witch finds a strategy to get around the "Vampires Can Not Enter This Building rule. Sally then discovers she has limited access. Olga Romanoff performs an act of headology on the whole hotel, pointing out that as a guest who is paying for the room, the hotel is providing her with ease and comfort, and is bound to provide this by ancient rule. She can therefore invite whoever she likes in there. Sally gets in through the window, but she discovers if she tries to walk out into the corridor, she hits a painful invisible barrier that bounces her back into Olga's room.

Must Be Invited / int_48177077	comment	Played completely straight in 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King. In fact, the converse is also true: at least one character drives a vampire out of his house by ordering it to leave and stating "I revoke my invitation." With a brandished cross as backup, of course. Making things trickier is that the vampires have some level of charm ability to make people let them in, they're often a dead person that the person knows and they tend to show up in the middle of the night, meaning their potential victim is partially asleep and not thinking clearly. In one case it's even indicated vampires can be invited in by people who are still asleep.

However, this only applies to intact buildings. A ruined house that has someone living in it doesn't count, nor does an inhabitated natural shelter-even a worked one like the parts of Dwarf Holds that are carved out of the mountain. It is believed to be a weakness specifically created by Nagash to make it difficult for the most magically potent bloodline to leave their libraries.

For example, the invitation doesn't need to be given at the entrance (as Zim invites Norlock to stay at his base while they're both a continent away from it). And during a later fight with Dib, Norlock shows that while he needs an invitation to enter a home, things adjacent to the house proper (like a garage) are fair game.

Must Be Invited / int_543bfacd	comment	Dracula: Tricking one of the inmates of an insane asylum into inviting you in apparently counts. Also Inverted: The Count is apparently forbidden from doing anything that could be construed as forcing Jonathan Harker to enter his castle or forbidding him from leaving, so stays firmly behind the threshold until he chooses to "Enter freely and of your own will," and when Jonathan insists on leaving, Dracula is quite willing to open the gates, but when Jonathan hears the wolves outside, he asks Dracula to close the doors again. Or Dracula could've just been a dick on a power trip. Another possibility is that since it's ambiguous whether Dracula (at this early stage of the book) is genuinely Affably Evil or Faux Affably Evil, his invitation might be some form of courtesy that modern readers don't get; while his famous invitation may stand out a lot nowadays, Jonathan does not seem to think there is anything strange about it. It's possible that Dracula doesn't realise that humans are not bound by similar rules about invitations; Van Helsing talks at some length about how Dracula is ignorant about the full extent of his own abilities (something which never seems to make it into the films), so maybe Dracula thought Jonathan required an invitation just like he would. Dracula's invitation to Jonathan is never brought up again, not even in the form of Jonathan lamenting the irony that he willingly entered the castle, so it might not have been intended to be particularly important. As noted in the intro, the idea that The Fair Folk etc. could not exercise their full power over humans without some kind of consent is Older Than Dirt, so maybe Stoker was deliberately trying to invoke this trope. Dracula has certain other traits normally associated with The Fair Folk, and it's apparent between this and other elements of subtext that the Dracula story is in at least some part an allegory of the relationship between imperial England and Ireland.

That said, there are some technicalities with it, as the invitation must specifically come from the home's owner, and said homeowner is able to "un-invite" the vampire. Additionally, it turns out that bringing in a vampire's frozen body to display as the prize trophy of your collection of captured monsters also counts as inviting the vampire in.

Half-vampire Youko can enter buildings without being invited, but feels really guilty about it. For full-blooded vampires like her father Genjirou, however, the trope is played straight. In one story arc, Genjirou goes on a rampage against Youko's friend Asahi, and Youko protects him by taking him into her bedroom and dis-inviting Genjirou, which causes him to be blocked by Some Kind of Force Field; the fact that Genjirou owns the house that contains said bedroom doesn't matter.

Moreover the invitation can be withdrawn by the host or renounced by the vampire, which is expected from them after a one-time visit unless the host extend it. The rule doesn't help human victims much though, since the vampires can use a sort of "siren song" to hypnotize their target into coming outside.

That's not the only time Jerry abuses a loophole. Apparently simply opening the door for a deliveryman can count as an "invitation" and if a building is abandoned it's fair game. Early in the movie, Charley uses this to test his suspicions about Jerry when the latter comes to his house on the pretext of asking for a beer; he leaves Jerry standing on the doorstep while he fetches one from the kitchen, then comes back and holds the bottle out to him, but Jerry is apparently unable to take it until it passes over the threshold. As Ed flees from Jerry, he breaks into a house and confidently tells the vampire that he cannot enter the house without an invitation. However, he comes in anyway and explains that this house has been empty for a long time.

It's also relatively simple to rescind the invitation, forcibly ejecting the vampire from the premises, simply by telling them to Get Out!. The only snag is that the person who invited the vampire in has to be the one to revoke the invitation, which causes problems on Diego's route - Grace was the one who invited Victor Thorne into the house she and the protagonist live in, and since Grace is missing, there's no way to make the house safe from him, requiring the protagonist to stay over first at the bowling alley and then at Diego's house.

When we first meet her, she and her "mother" stage a coach accident outside the home of Laura and her father, getting the injured girl invited in to recover while her mother continued an important journey. Later we learn that they pulled the same scam so the young vampire could feed on Bertha Spielsdorf, with Carmilla's mother again getting called away on urgent business so someone else will gallantly offer to play host for her daughter while she's away. Carmilla may not be a pure example, though; while staying with Laura and her father she also kills several young women in the village, seemingly with impunity. These murders happened "offscreen", so we can't be sure of the exact circumstances, but it seems doubtful she pulled elaborate tricks like these for every victim.

Public buildings are fair game, hypnosis can convince a home's inhabitants to give an invite, and as Van Richten's Guide to the Vampire points out, a vampiric feudal lord (like, say, Strahd Von Zarovich) technically owns any home in his domain. A person's tomb is also out of bounds, since it's their ultimate "home" and they won't be in any state to give an invitation, though a vampire can use necromancy on the interred remains and have their new minion bring out whatever they need. Vampire dragons are also bound by this convention, but have a simple solution — reduce the home to a pile of rubble, then pick what they want out of the debris. Wu Jen and (in 3.5) Warlock classes are required to have "taboos"; this is suggested as a possibility.

When Dracula is shown in a flashback gathering an army for his destruction of mankind, he visits Isaac's home and asks to be invited inside, which Isaac obliges. Given that this version of Dracula is a powerful Sorcerous Overlord who wouldn't usually care about being invited into a place (if an enemy hypothetically refused him entry, he'd probably just smash his way in anyway), it's ambiguous if he actually needed to be invited or if it's simply a polite courtesy he extended to Isaac in particular.

Must Be Invited / int_71a2d83d	comment	The limitation also applies in The Vampire Diaries. In a Fridge Logic moment, one man who became a vampire suddenly found himself barred from his own home. Since he lived alone, there was nobody who could invite him inside, and apparently the rules don't regard a vampire as a rightful owner. Gets especially odd when it is confirmed that a vampire can enter a house whose sole inhabitant is dead. The general fan assumption is simply that someone else owns the house. The vampires themselves have taken advantage of this, by living with a severely compulsed human in order to create a threshold to keep out unfriendly vampires. The opposite is a problem for Damon: He killed the only human in his house, so now hostile vampires can come and go whenever they please. He doesn't even bother locking the door anymore. In the second season Elijah is killed, his body is moved into a house he hadn't been invited into, and comes back to life. In apparent pain he mutters "I can't be here" and runs outside. In the 18th episode of season 2 Elena legally gets ownership of the Salvatore house. The brothers even have to stand outside while the paperwork is filed. In the second to last episode of season 3 Klaus wants to get into the Gilbert residence to take Elena (who is actually not there at the time). He is told he will not be getting an invitation, so then he super throws a soccer ball and a few fence posts. Last he is seen with a container of gasoline and piece of wood. When Elena and Caroline attend a college party, they're thrown when they can't cross the doorway and realize the rules count for a fraternity/sorority house. Luckily, one of the residents doesn't notice but offers an off-hand "come on in" to allow them inside. In an episode of the Sequel Series The Originals, Elijah overcomes this. He uses his legal connections to have the state use eminent domain to seize the house someone has been hiding out in, making it public property. Cue the Oh, Crap! face as Elijah walks through the door

Commercial buildings and public spaces are fair game, of course, but any place that is a "home", no matter how metaphorical of one it is, can block a vampire from entering. This leads to a rather funny moment when Rick, one of Kitty's friends, tries to walk through the door of the werewolf restaurant/bar, resulting in a "running into a glass door" moment. As he puts it, although the building is a business, the pack has made it a home as well. Kitty teases him by threatening to not let him in, but eventually does. It also applies even when the one who calls the place "home" is dead, it seems, since the fact Flint House is haunted prevents Roman from entering to come after Kitty and the Paradox PI crew.

Sam also learns that it wouldn't have counted if the demons had convinced teenage spellcaster Gary to say "Yes" on his behalf when Gary was possessing his body, as Gary's soul would have been out of alignment with Sam's body.

On one occasion Bishop breaks into the trio's house and attacks them, and flees before suffering permanent harm. The restriction only applies if the location belongs to a living human (werewolves count as humans); if a house is legally owned by a vampire, other vampires can enter freely. If the owner or resident of a location changes, the invitation lapses. On one occasion, someone arranges for a house to be legally sold while a whole bunch of vampires are trapped inside; the vampires no longer have a valid invitation to the house, and are all destroyed. In Season 4, Kenny is able to enter the groups' home without an invitation because this is where he was "born", giving him apparently free access.

The only way she could come back is if she were invited, but the gods would never do such a thing. Technically the curse only forces her to obey mortal laws, but that's mostly academic; mortal men obey kings who obey gods, so even if she got permission from men and kings, the gods still wouldn't allow it. But then some American soldiers "rescue" her, and since they have neither kings nor gods in positions of explicit authority, the confused mortals are able to give her permission to enter their cities, since they think she's just a Wild Child.

Must Be Invited / int_d2d62c81	comment	In the Monster Hunter International universe, vampires work explicitly on the "must be invited" model. However, there are some technicalities that they will exploit without hesitation, such using a large party with lots of strangers around as a cover to walk up to the door and be allowed in by someone who doesn't realize who they are. In the first book, Monster Hunter International: The vampires working with the Big Bad are able to enter the house of a professor with information needed for their quest purely due to the professor in question having a "Welcome" door mat. Owen immediately states he's never buying one of those again. Master vampire and former Monster Hunter Susan Shackleford is able to enter a house to which she wasn't explicitly invited because before becoming a vampire it was her own house. It helps that no one realized she had become a vampire until that point, and it's explicitly mentioned afterwards they fixed the protection around the house to make sure she couldn't do it again. In Monster Hunter Vendetta, a vampire gains access to Owen's jail cell by Mind Controlling another in the same cell to extend an invitation inside, in spite of Owen's citing the invitation rule to prevent her from entering what he was considering his home.note The prison in question being one of those "corrupt third-world dump" jails into which people vanish, so he had no expectation of getting out since his team didn't know where he was.

Must Be Invited / int_dc4363c5	comment	True Blood Not only are invitations needed for vampires to enter, but if an invitation is rescinded, an invisible force pushes the vampire out. Sometimes, if their fangs are out, they automatically retract, implying their powers are taken away until they're outside. The amount of force used seems to vary — sometimes it's portrayed like an extremely strong wind lifting up and hurling the vampire away, and in one instance, the vampire just sorta looks like he's standing on a skateboard that just got pushed toward the door. When stopping Jessica Hamby from hurting her abusive parents, Bill glamors Jessica's sister into inviting him into the house when her parents refuse. This is only true for homes owned by non-vampires, as demonstrated by Franklin entering Bill's house despite Jessica's objections, since the last human who owned said house died a year before. A public place (a non-dwelling) is also fair game. The invitation can also be forced. In a later episode, Sookie and Eric are talking on the porch, when Eric hears something inside with his super-hearing. He nearly slams Sookie into the wall and forces her to invite him in. This was to protect her, though, as there was a werewolf waiting inside. Poor Jessica had her invitation rescinded from two different houses in the same night; it didn't seem to matter that she lived in one of them. Eric gets around the invitation to Sookie's house by buying her house during the year that she is missing presumed dead, making it his house. For extra dickishness points he builds an extra windowless room that connects to Sookie's bedroom. Sarah Newlin is able to rescind Jessica's invitation for Jason's house, even though she's only been there for a couple of hours at best. Apparently anyone can rescind any vampire's invitation.

Must Be Invited / int_e293455a	comment	Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel: Vampires have this limitation. The Buffyverse established an elaborate sense of Magic A Is Magic A with the invite: it must be an actual residence (house, apartment, dormitory) and not merely a "public accommodation" (a motel room), only a resident can give the invitation (when Buffy was sleeping on Dawn and Xander's couch and had no other residence, she still was officially a guest and couldn't invite Spike in), the invitation must be clear (just saying "come in" is enough, answering "I guess" when a vampire asks if they can enter is not) and verbal (head nods and hand waves do not count), the invite requirement is voided when the occupant is dead (Angel once watched a man get killed by vampires when the man had invited them in earlier and refused to invite him), the invite is only needed once unless a certain "uninvite" spell is cast (this was done for Angel, Spike and Harmony) - the invitation can only be rescinded magically, not verbally, and once Cordelia lost a special "Invite Angel into Her New Apartment" moment because earlier while she was apartment-shopping she said he could visit once she found a new place. The Buffyverse treats it as an actual mystical barrier that acts similar to a wall. There's also plenty of discussion on how clever vampires will get around the restriction. In the first Angel episode, "City of", a rich vampire, Russell Winters, would set pretty girls up in apartments he owned. Since technically they were his guests, he could come and go as he wished â€“ and eat them. When Spike showed up later in "In the Dark", the characters tell Cordelia she shouldn't go back to her place, as Spike could just burn it down to get to her. Spike also tells Dawn a story about how he got a woman to invite her into her home by dint of Spike holding her husband hostage and promising her the man would live if she cooperated. It should also be noted that this only applies to human residences; vampires and other demons have no such protection. Angel, in the episode "Somnambulist" from the first season, breaks into the apartment of his vampiric ex-protÃ©gÃ© Penn with no trouble. This also applies to half-demons such as Connor or Billy Blim, even if ordinary humans also live there. His ability to do so for Billy's home is what clues them in that Billy is part demon. In "I Was Made To Love You", Spike arrives at the Magic Box store after the Scoobies find out about his obsession with Buffy. The Scoobies make no secret about how they don't want him there, and Willow claims they're trying to find a way to "un-invite" him from the Magic Box, even though it's a public place, meaning Spike can enter and exist at his leisure. Xander, however, says they might as well let him in... so they can toss him right back out. The Buffyverse vampire invitation rules are also particular about how a building is used. For instance, when Angel briefly stays in the Hyperion Hotel in the 1950s, he can enter any room because the hotel is a public accommodation and no one's home. Half a century later, however, when Fred moves into the long-closed Hyperion with Angel's other friends, she must invite the vampire into her room because the hotel is no longer open to the public. Some vampires were able to break into dormitory rooms during the first few days of semester, because the students were throwing a welcoming party and the flyer said "everybody is invited". It was played for comedy in the second-season episode "Untouched" in which, while the human Gunn could enter an apartment and snoop around, Angel was left leaning against the invisible barrier of the doorway. He then fell into the apartment when the owner died in the hospital. In the episode "Billy", after concluding that man Lilah manipulated the Fang Gang into freeing is behind the recent murders, Angel heads to confront her. He furiously kicks her door off its hinges...but since he hasn't been invited in that's about all he can do. Also when Angelus and Spike are trying to gate-crash the party of their Arch-Nemesis the Immortal in Rome, only they can't get in because they're Not on the List. It's also played for laughs in a Buffy episode where Harmony and her vampire gang confront the Scoobies at Buffy's house. In reaction to Harmony's taunting, Dawn yells at her, "Oh yeah, come inside and say that!" before she is muffled by Xander. Too late. Also, since Dawn yelled that at her specifically, only Harmony can get in. Her lackeys are stuck outside. Xander used it against her moments earlier. While standing in the doorway, he goaded Harmony into attacking him, and then laughed when she hit the invitation barrier. Willow also learns the price of carelessness in the Season 4 episode "The Initiative" while at her college dorm. Spike knocks on the door and, without thinking, Willow replies, "Come in." Fortunately for her, Spike had just had his Restraining Bolt installed. They even pay careful attention to it in first-season episodes of Buffy before it's revealed that Angel is a vampire. Buffy and Angel are being chased by the Master's goons, and Buffy leads Angel to her home and tells him to "Get in, come on!" Angelus was always pretty good about slipping or tricking his way around this little inconvenience. In one episode he convinced Holtz's daughter to invite him inside by claiming to be friends, asking for an invitation inside, and making certain she voiced it verbally. And after he was first made a vampire, he tricked his own kid sister into inviting him in on the pretense that he was an angel taking the form of her beloved dead brother. Cue Death of a Child. In "Dear Boy", this actually got Angel off the hook for a murder accusation. When he's accused of the murder of Mr. Kramer, Kate storms the Hyperion with a SWAT team to arrest him, but is forced to acknowledge he's innocent when they point out a hole in his wife'snote actually a Back from the Dead Darla story; Angel, being a vampire, couldn't possibly have just stormed in and killed someone in their own home unless he was explicitly invited or the real owners were already dead. Angel did once get into a home despite the invite restriction...Kate didn't want to invite him in when she attempted suicide, but Angel was able to get in and revived her. Kate speculated that the Powers That Be broke the rules to let him save her. The only time the rule was ever completely broken on Buffy was in "Halloween", where a boy who had become his vampire costume somehow broke into Buffy's house on his own. No explanation for how he was able to do this is given, though it was probably due to him not being a true vampire. In Season 5, Buffy tolerates Spike's Stalker with a Crush behavior until she discovers he's fallen in love with her (and realizes he's getting too close to her family). She then gets Willow to bar Spike from the house. Then Spike shows himself willing to give his life to protect Dawn, so in the season finale Buffy invites him back into her home. Played for laughs again when Angel waited patiently for an invite before entering Buffy's house despite having prior permission. He was just being polite. Also the answer to how Dracula was able to enter Buffy's home: Turns out he ran into Buffy's mom in town, and Drac being who he is, she gave him an open invitation to drop by sometime.

One example was when Andrew hears Stashe asking to be let into his office, and tells her to come in. She enters and says something along the lines of "Thank you. We need to be invited in, you know." It wasn't Stashe. Cue Oh, Crap!.

Must Be Invited / int_f3ef0f86	comment	Explored in the Artemis Fowl series, where the basic rule is that a fairy trying to enter a house uninvited becomes violently ill, and repeat offenders (such as Mulch Diggums) eventually lose their magical powers entirely. However, the inherent fuzziness of the rule (respectively, what exactly constitutes as an invitation), means there are many loopholes and borderline cases, which often leads to quibbling and word-mincing in-story. In fact, the first book mentions that this trope is enforced by bureaucratic ethics boards that review whether or not invitations are actually valid, and that may interpret the rules less or more restrictive depending on circumstances. In the first book, Artemis tells Root, "None of your race have permission to enter here while I am alive." The fairies take this to mean they can enter when he's dead. Artemis knows this full well and purposely leaves the loophole as the final step in his Evil Plan. In The Eternity Code, Artemis asks Corrupt Corporate Executive Jon Spiro if he thinks Artemis is going to swoop in with his fairy friends and take back the C Cube. Spiro laughs and says, "Bring all the fairy friends you want." Big mistake... Later in The Eternity Code, Juliet gets Holly into a building by calling about public tours and asking, "Hey mister, can I bring my invisible friend?" Holly once used a 'welcome' mat as a loophole. A cry for help in an emergency counts as an invitation, though this worked only thanks to the ethics board, which was lenient because lives were at stake. In one short story, Holly is able to enter a tent because, as a non permanent structure, it doesn't count. When Holly couldn't chase a villain inside the house, she pulled the house down.

She bleeds from every pore after just a few seconds. Owen hugs her desperately and invites her inside. When he asks if she would have died if he hadn't said anything, Abby replies that she knew he wouldn't have let that happen.

Must Be Invited / int_f774df0d	comment	How to Survive Camping: Many of the beings mentioned follow "hospitality laws", meaning they cannot enter someone's house unless they are invited in; it's even said that The Devil itself might be repelled for lack of invitation. It's usually a very bad sign when one isn't bound by that rule. According to the man with a skull cup, humans used to follow these laws as well, but that tradition was lost to time. While the little girl also needs to be invited in order to enter the owner's house, any point of entry left open counts as an invitation, as long as it has been opened by the proper resident of the house and is deemed a "formal" entrance (i.e. one leading directly into the house proper, which includes windows but excludes garage doors).

If they try to, they take aggravated damage (equivalent to plunging your hand into fire or being exposed to sunlight). This isn't so much based on ancient tradition, as the fact that the bloodline's founder was horribly brutalized and tormented by a vampiric home invader.
