Portal Door | comment |
This is a door that opens to a location other than the one behind it; in time, space, and even outside of it! Its ability to connect two unrelated locations automatically qualifies it as a Cool Gate, even when the materials are of mundane make and manufacture. How can this door bend space and time like a Dali painting? It may be a technological teleportation device, a Time Machine (or both). It could also be made through magic (which usually justifies it being otherwise mundane looking), and may lead to the Magical Land, Spirit World or Dark World. Lastly, it may be some form of "naturally" occurring gateway of Eldritch origin that leads to an Another Dimension. This is a supertrope to The Lonely Door, where the "doorway" isn't built into a wall (it still needs to be a standard-looking door, not just a portal in the air). This is a subtrope to Cool Gate, where you can find additional portals. |

Awful Hospital: The "out of order" door that leads to The Abyss. The Hospital and Morgue use these to access Zones that are generated from a being's "endosphere", like when Dr. Phage diagnoses a patient by traveling "inside" it and when Fern enters the Corpse World of one of her own dead bodies. |

Bleach: Senkaimon are doors that allow travel between the living world and the Soul Society, Garganta are portals that allow travel between the living world and Hueco Mundo or between Soul Society and Hueco Mundo. Also, there is a special doorway to hell, that opens for the collection of any Hollow that is cleansed of its post-death sins only for the saved soul to have pre-death sins that now need punishment. | |

Loki considers popping in to Doom's Battleworld, or going to bother the Silver Surfer, then thinks against it and draws a door on the void. The final page is them inviting Verity to step through. It was several years later that it turned out the door led to Galactus' homeworld in the old multiverse, but Verity simply got reset back into her old life. | |

In The Redemption of Althalus by David Eddings, the protagonists live in a house with as many rooms as they like, as large as they like (they occasionally have armies on the march through the corridors) and can open doors to literally anywhere on command. One of the protagonists attempt, out of curiosity, to open a door to "nowhere"—although they avert the attempt before they succeed, the concept is enough to freak out their patron goddess something fierce. | |

The Key in The Lost Room can turn any door with a tumble lock into this, which is why Karl Kreutzfeld made sure all the doors in his home were of the sliding variety (he forgets about the door in his son's fake castle and another one covered by drywall). Technically, though, each door opened by the Key leads to the titular room, at which point the holder of the Key can open the room's door to whatever location he can envision. | |

The SCP Foundation has several. SCP-004 ("The 12 Rusty Keys and the Door"). SCP-004 is a door and set of twelve keys. The door opens to a different place depending on the key used to unlock it. One key leads to a room of seemingly infinite size, one leads to an Eldritch Abomination which destroys the mind of anyone who sees it, while the other ten lead to Alien Geometries which are instantly fatal to human life. SCP-167 ("Infinite Labyrinth"). SCP-167 is a white cube with a door on one side. When the door is entered, the interior room has two doors. When either one of them is passed through, it leads to another room with two doors. This can be continued as long as desired. The rooms that the doors lead to remain consistent between explorations. SCP-249 ("The Random Door"), which connects to a different random nearby door every time it's used. SCP-432 ("Cabinet Maze"). SCP-432 is a steel storage cabinet. When its door is opened it leads to a large underground labyrinth of steel-lined corridors. SCP-616 ("The Vessel and the Gate"). Once every month the center-left emergency door of a jetliner opens and becomes a portal to Hell, allowing demonic creatures to enter the Foundation's universe. SCP-1130 ("A Handy Shortcut"). SCP-1130-1 is a severely weathered metal door that appears when someone uses an interactive kiosk that provides free directions. The person using the kiosk is told to go through "'Maintenance Portal 26-Sigma". When they do, they end up in a confusing maze of rooms designated SCP-1130-2. SCP-1557 ("Giraffe Hell"). SCP-1557 can only be reached by passing through a free-standing door in Greenland. The door is 2.5 meters wide and 3 meters high, and has a surface temperature of over 2700 °C. SCP-2317 ("Door to Another World"). SCP-2317 is an inconspicuous wooden door that transports people who enter it into SCP-2317-Prime, a dimension that holds an Eldritch Abomination. SCP-2400 ("Temporal Dilation Facility"). SCP-2400 is a steel door set in a fragment of a concrete wall. When opened it leads to an apparently infinite plane of existence with ground similar to concrete and a star similar to the Sun overhead. SCP-2503 ("Estimated Distance: 9,216 Years"). The door of the master bedroom of a house in Canada leads to a Bigger on the Inside alternate reality consisting of a concrete path under a dark sky. SCP-4005 ("The Holy and Heavenly City of Fabled China"). People infected by a powerful cognitohazard become compelled to go on a pilgrimage to the supposed True China, which often leads to them entering some door, never to be seen again. |

In the last volume of Labyrinths of Echo, Max and Melifaro end up in a magical reality where all doors are this for them: stepping through any kind of portal or door (even self-constructed) transports them to another world (seemingly) at random. When they finally make it back to Echo, Max discovers all doors still continue to function like portals to random universes for him, so he has to condition himself to check every doorway he passes through for this effect. | |

The Owl House: A major plot element in the series is Eda's portal door, which is the only known reliable method of freely passing between the human and demon realms. The Secret Room of Shortcuts is full of magic doors that lead to other rooms in Hexside, which the detention kids use to peek on other classes and learn other types of magic. The doors don't need to open to other doors, instead creating doors out of whatever happens to be at the location (walls, lockers, etc.). |

John DeChancie likes this trope; his Castle Perilous has 144,000 doors, each leading to an Alternate Universe, and they don't just wait for you to walk through—the portals wander, and actively seek out those who want to travel or get away. His Skyway series has "Tollbooths" (no doubt named as a Shout-Out to The Phantom Tollbooth) which use miles-tall columns of virtual particles to create wormholes linking a vast Road across thousands of planetary surfaces. | |

This is how monsters are able to come out of children's closets and scare them in Monsters, Inc. (and, by extension, Monsters University). The monster world has a copy of every child's closet door that when given power will connect to their bedroom. The titular factory has a vault filled with millions of them, and the climax features Sully, Mike and Boo, as well as Randall, giving chase, running back and forth through multiple doors in the vault, causing them to end up in different locations around the world. When the doors don't have any power connected, those in the monster world, including the steel banishment door to the Himalayas, which Waternoose and Randall send Mike and Sully through, will open to nothing on the other end and the closet doors in the human world will just open as normal. | |

Are You Afraid of the Dark?: "The Tale of the Dollmaker": In the attic, the arched door leads to a suddenly life-size perspective of the dollhouse. In the dollhouse attic, the equivalent door leads to outside the attic of the original house - however, the space around this view ripples on touch, and leads to a safe landing on the lawn. "The Tale of a Door Unlocked": There are two miniature wooden doors. One opens into an impending fire hazard in the Allan house; the occurrence of said hazard, and provides instantaneous passage through one of the house's inner doors. The other leads out of the house, and into the Magic Mansion. |

Mystery of Mortlake Mansion has several small doors hidden all over the real-world mansion, each requiring a specifically-coloured crystal to unlock. Once unlocked, a colour/sequence/shape-matching puzzle must be completed in order to open a Swirly Energy Thingy leading to the "shadowy" version of the room in which the door is found. The shadowy mansion in Mystery of Mortlake Mansion has the same rooms as the real-world one, but connected differently (and illogically), resulting in several isolated groups of rooms which are not accessible from each other. Travelling from one group of rooms to another can only be done by returning to the real world and using another Portal Door. | |

"Let's Play Paranormal Stuff": Kaeloo, Stumpy, and Mr. Cat find a door that leads to the inside of Quack Quack's head. "Let's Play Interdimensional Hide and Seek": The four characters use the doors to play hide-and-seek, discovering an Alternate Universe, the world of "Let's Learn" as opposed to their "Let's Play". "Let's Play the Door": Stumpy finds a door that leads to the inside of Mr. Cat's head. "Let's Play Replicating": Stumpy tricks his clones through a door into another dimension by telling them that Ursula is on the other side. |

The door leading out of the title castle in Diana Wynne Jones' Howl's Moving Castle leads to four different places depending on what color its dial is set to. Three are The Wastes, Howl's shop in Porthaven, and Howl's shop in Kingsbury. The fourth leads to another dimension - modern day Wales. In the title house of the third book House of Many Ways, each door in the house could lead to another room in the house or various places across the country depending on the combination of which way you opened it from, which way you turn when walking through, and how many steps you take before stopping. |

There, he finds the notes of Sir Michael Sinclair, an evil occultist who created the door as a means to trap those who entered through it, so that Sinclair can take their souls and live forever. | |

The redstone doorways in The Wheel of Time look like empty doorframes, but walking through one will transport you to a dimension populated by weird aliens who see the future or grant wishes. The Wheel of Time has them in at least three flavors: the aforesaid redstone doorways, the Waygates built of finely carved white stone and having nice reflection visual effect, and the One Power-created Gateways for Skimming (travel via subspace) and Traveling (instant teleportation). There are also Portal Stones, which are Exactly What It Says on the Tin. They link not only to other portal stones in the world, but also to Portal Stones in Parallel worlds. Very handy, if not well understood at all. |

"Terminus" reveals that the Doctor's TARDIS can, in emergencies, materialise as a two-dimensional door in a wall instead of a three-dimensional object. "The Girl Who Waited": A hallway full of doors connects all of the rooms in this facility. The portal aspect is that the rooms can be seperated in time. |

The Bob Leman short story Window involves a scientist, Culvergast, whose experiments in Magitek accidentally creates a portal in the middle of the woods consisting of a large three-dimensional "window" that takes the space where his lab used to be (apparently erasing Culvergast from existence in the process). The other scientists and the US military to look in on a seemingly idyllic homestead setting showing a family of four and their dog. Initially, they believe the window to be impassable due to an invisible barrier, but after figuring out that it weakens for brief periods at a time, a grad student named Reeves crosses over to make contact and is immediately killed and eaten by the family, who turn out to be murderous cannibals. | |

Two and a half examples in The Chronicles of Narnia: In Prince Caspian when Aslan sends the four Pevensies home and some of the Telmarines to the deserted island their ancestors came from through a door made of 2 vertical sticks and a horizontal one on top. In The Last Battle, the door to the stable, which turns out to lead to Aslan's country (ie heaven) and not the inside of a stable that the Calormens are about to set fire to. Finally, the eponymous wardrobe in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe may qualify. It's a bit of an edge case, since the actual "portal" (when it's there at all) appears to be near the back of the wardrobe - rather than through the actual doorway. |

Mahou MUSH: The Shitennou palaces are connected to the real world via such doorways. The most frequently-used is the door into Jadeite's palace, which is at the bottom of the stairs leading down to the basement of an abandoned house in Tokyo. Zoisite's palace connects to a cavern reached via the Paris catacombs; the door to Nephrite's is on the west coast of Canada, and it's speculated that Kunzite's probably opens somewhere into the Middle East (though no one has been in a hurry to test it). | |

Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising series. Powerful Old Ones (such as Merriman Lyon) are able to summon a magical gate (which looks like a pair of doors) that allows travel through time and space. | |

The Longest Journey Saga: The Shift is a single-use variant. April (and later Saga) opens it, steps through it, then it closes. There is one scene in Chapters where Saga keeps one open while other characters talk and even walk through it. | |

In The Librarians 2014, Jenkins uses the few magical artifacts he has in the Annex to build a "back door", a portal that connects a broom closet door to another door anywhere in the world. However, navigation is not easy and requires the use of sympathetic magic. Jenkins claims that it's a good thing he can even hit the target city. This allows the titular characters to travel the world without spending hours flying or driving. Unfortunately, it also leaves the Annex open to anyone who might stumble on the door from the other end (such as Morgan le Fay). Also, the pilot episode showed the Library itself having multiple doors leading to other parts of the world. In fact, the elevator that led to the Library was itself a portal, since the Library doesn't exist in our dimension. Later on, Jenkins manages to come up with a single-shot portable version, although that one appears to be used more as a link to the regular "back door". | |

Finally, the eponymous wardrobe in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe may qualify. It's a bit of an edge case, since the actual "portal" (when it's there at all) appears to be near the back of the wardrobe - rather than through the actual doorway. | |

The Night Visions episode "A View Through the Window" (based on the short story Window) features a huge portal that appears in the middle of the Iraqi desert, allowing the US Army to look in on a seemingly idyllic Little House on the Prairie-esque homestead with a loving family. As in the short story, they turn out to be vicious, sharp-toothed cannibals, and kill and eat protagonist Ben Darnell (Bill Pullman) when he crosses over at the end. | |

In the final season of Legends of Tomorrow, in the absence of the Waverider, the team's home base becomes an extradimensional duplicate of John Constantine's house, accessed by unlocking any door with a magic key John gives Zari. Unfortunately, opening the front door of the duplicate manor reveals that the dimension in question is Hell. | |

What The Hell Did I Just Read: A Novel of Cosmic Horror: NON has a door to alternate dimensions. The first time we see it, they use it to bring John, Dave and Amy into a world that has been doomed with a planet-wide plague. The next time, a NON office-worker uses it to throw his coffee cup away. The third time, one of the Fuckroach larvae is thrown in there right before it hatches. The dimension wasn't empty, and all the humans there are retroactively turned into naked, mutilated slaves of a Draconic humanoid race. | |
