A Portable Hole is an object that creates a "hole" through whatever solid surface it is placed against, enabling a character to reach through the surface in question to its interior or opposite side. It may be removed by peeling it edge-first off the surface, and from either side; when not in use, a portable hole resembles a round black disc of fabric- or rubber-like material that can be handled, folded, or stored like any solid object. Portable Holes occur primarily in animation, and are usually Played for Laughs. Expect some degree of Hammerspace or alternate dimensions if the writer attempts to seriously explain how they work; other times, they are simply powered by the Rule of Funny. Portable Holes are functionally distinct from teleportation portals, but the two occasionally overlap, since teleportation portals are "holes" of a sort themselves (and Our Wormholes Are Different). They are also related to Bags of Holding and generally interact badly with them. Examples |

Awful Hospital has a living portable hole in the form of Lacey, the Open Wound. We haven't seen her move yet, exactly, but it has been strongly implied in universe and explicitly confirmed by Word of God that she's capable of doing so. | |

Bottersnikes And Gumbles: The Bottersnikes have a Secret Weapon in the form of a Bottersnike named Smiggles, for whatever he dreams becomes real — or at least that's what the Bottersnikes believe. The King has him dream a Gumbletrap in the form of a covered hole. When the Bottersnikes discover an already-dug hole, they think he's dreamed it in the wrong place. The King's solution? Well just move it then! (Like the Brick Joke that begins: How do you get an elephant in a fridge? You open the door, put the elephant in, and close the door.) | |

Looney Tunes: The Trope Codifier. A 1955 episode called "The Hole Idea" featured them as the invention of a scientist, later stolen by a thief to commit crimes with. In the end, the scientist tried to use one of those holes to rid himself of his wife but the Devil brought her back because even he couldn't stand her. A later episode involved Bugs Bunny causing a disaster at a Portable Hole factory, ending with "liquefied" portable-hole swallowing up everything. Fortunately, Bugs happened to have a spare Universe on his person just in case such such a thing would happen. Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner occasionally played with this trope as well, though less often than with related tropes such as Painted Tunnel, Real Train. |

In Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz the Braided Man was a manufacturer of holes: holes for Swiss cheese, holes for doughnuts, etc. This led to trouble when he made a lot of post holes, didn't know where to put them, and stacked them all up to store them... and then fell in. | |

Red Mage in 8-Bit Theater makes use of portable holes. At one point he creates a Pocket Dimension by dropping one portal hole (his "A-hole") into another portable hole (his "B-hole"), allowing the Light Warriors to hide from Sarda "deep, deep in my A-hole." At which point his plan hits a snag (as Red Mage's plans always do) because he didn't take into account how to get back out. | |

Yellow Submarine has the Sea of Holes, one of which Ringo peels off and stores in his pocket (see the page quote). He later uses it to help Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band escape the Blue Meanies' anti-music bubble. The hole shows up in the live-action segment at the end where the real-life Ringo Starr says he's kept it as a souvenir.note Well, half of it. He gave the rest to Jeremy. What can he do with it, you ask? Why, fix it to keep his mind from wandering, of course! | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The portable hole is a magic item that doesn't quite follow Looney Toons rules in that (in most editions) it doesn't let you create a hole through a wall or floor when you unfurl it upon a surface. Instead it functions more like its related magic item in that each portable hole, when spread out onto a flat surface, creates a six-foot wide, 10-foot deep Pocket Dimension used for storage; once you're done dumping treasure into the portable hole, you can pick it up and fold it up as easily as if it were a handkerchief. Though on the subject of bags of holding, DO NOT put one into your portable hole, or vice-versa. In a best-case scenario, both items are destroyed, while in a worst-case scenario you'll tear a temporary rift to the Astral Plane that sucks in everything in a 10-foot radius. A similar magic item is the portable foxhole, which can be unfolded into a pit three feet deep and five feet wide to serve as cover rather than storage (if you fold it up, any items in the foxhole tumble out of it). The Enveloping Pit is a relic of the kobold deity Kurtulmak to aid his race of Trap Masters. Unlike a normal portable hole, the Pit is 10 feet wide and 50 feet deep, and more insidiously can open from or close into a one-foot-wide hole, its moveable form, with a spoken command word. A common kobold tactic then is to shrink the Enveloping Pit, watch from hiding as a group of intruders step around it, and then speak the command word to have the Pit expand to swallow them up. Marvelous Pigments are sets of magic paint that make things you paint with them real, including holes. |

The Warehouse 13 episode "Love Sick" introduces the artifact "Francois Villon's Inkwell". Not a round rubber or cloth Portable Hole, but spilling the ink on any surface allows a person to reach straight through it. It's used in the episode to allow a pair of thrown keys to pass through a plate glass window before the ink quickly evaporates leaving a perfectly intact window. | |

One Piece: Blueno ate the Door-Door Fruit, which allows him to make anything he touches a door. The first instance shown of this is when he presses himself against a wall, someone pushes his body, and the wall beneath his body opens into the next room. | |

Spider-Man: Homecoming: Toomes's crew has access to an alien device that temporarily "phases" matter within an adjustable rectangular shape and allows passing through it, creating this effect. It is quite handy when stealing from heavily secured containers and also when grabbing a beer from the fridge without getting up to walk to the door. | |

In JauntTrooper, the Portable Hole is a type of monster that roves around the floor. You can drop items through it to the level below, or attack its edges and kill it (causing the hole to seal up). | |

The Gamecube/Xbox vehicular combat game Cel Damage had portable holes as a weapon, wielded on gloved robot arm. They work like mines in that, once laid, enemies that drive over them will suddenly freeze in the air before getting spaghettified into them as if they were a black hole. | |

Star Trek Into Darkness: Dr McCoy casually uses a portable hole to gain access to a prisoner in the brig so he can take a blood sample. Since the brig used a Forcefield Door, the device he uses was presumably designed to interact with the forcefield to create the hole and wouldn't work on other objects. | |

Ed, Edd n Eddy: Plays with this, along with several other tropes, in the episode "1 + 1 = Ed". At one point in the episode, Eddy falls into a hole, only to fall out of the sky from off-screen and back into the hole in an endless loop until Ed picks up the hole, leaving Eddy to crash into the now solid ground. Subverted after everything goes back to normal: Eddy and Double-D fall down a manhole, so Ed tries to pick it up and pulls a whole sewer pipe out of the ground. | |

There is a portable hole in one of the Dizzy games. You can pick it up, but as soon as you pick it up - and store it in your bag - there's a hole in your bag, so everything falls out of it. Including the hole. | |

A 1955 episode called "The Hole Idea" featured them as the invention of a scientist, later stolen by a thief to commit crimes with. In the end, the scientist tried to use one of those holes to rid himself of his wife but the Devil brought her back because even he couldn't stand her. | |

Donut County centers around having to create movable holes in the ground and use them to make everything in the vicinity fall through them, with the hole increasing in size every time you do. | |
