Sally

"Let's play!" - Playtime Achievement description

Sally^[3], also referred to as Window by the community prior to her name reveal, is a minor entity in DOORS. Before the Hotel+ Update, she could randomly appear during your run in The Hotel briefly on the windows as a rare easter egg. As of The Content Update, she can now hop out the windows and chase players across the map.

Appearance

Sally's appearance seems to be that of a short girl wearing a skirt and a belt with spiky hair. Her entire body is cloaked in a pitch black color, except for her white, glowing and smiling face.

In the Lobby, Sally takes an appearance of photonic matter manifesting as a smiling face with two eyes and two rows of 6 teeth. The shape of her face is hexagon-like, and her left eye is bigger than her right eye. However, in The Haunt event, her face was replaced with a jack-o-lantern mask.

Behavior

In The Hotel, Sally has a low, random chance to rise up from the outside void of any medium-sized window, staring at the player. Sally will then proceed to jump out, start giggling and chase the player slightly above their default walking speed. If Sally is close enough to the player, she will jump on their face, leaving Sally's face marked on the screen before fading away. If a player was holding an item, the entity will not disappear – instead, she will steal the item and play with it, before despawning. If Sally finds an item (including items dropped by players) while chasing the player, she will stop and play with the item, and eventually disappear, without damaging the player.

Sally's damage is very unique: When being jumpscared by Sally, she removes 2/3 of the victim's current HP (capped to a minimum of 3 HP) and divides their current max HP by 1.3 (capped to a minimum of 50 max HP). This also means it is impossible to die to Sally.^[4] Additionally, she sets the player's oxygen to 5%, being extremely lethal inside a Firedamp room (with Modifiers).

Notes

• As of The Content Update, you can crucify Sally.^[5]
  • To do this, players have to hold the Crucifix when Sally jumps on the player's face. However, it is also possible to crucify her after she starts playing with any item, and interacting with her while holding the Crucifix.
  • Dropping the Crucifix so she plays with it will also crucify her as of the 12/22/2024 patch. However, it was possible for her to play with the Crucifix before, and was firstly documented by FabreDino on Youtube^[6].
• It is impossible to die to Sally, as her damage won't decrease the player's health below 3 HP.
• Star Shield won't do anything against Sally, she can only decrease the player's main health.
• If Sally finds an item on a table or in an open container, the whole table or container with the item will move when Sally starts playing with it, as both models are attached.
• If Sally appears and there is already an item on the ground, even in the previous room, she will immediately go to it.
• Sally can't interact with Glitch Fragments.^[7]
• If the player is too far from Sally at any moment, she will teleport next to them.
• When Sally is seen outside the window, the lights will start to flicker in every room. When she enters through the window, all the lights will break, meaning every room will be dark.
  • Because of this, the flickering may occur at the same time as the flickering indicating Rush's arrival.
• Sally can be seen through walls until she starts interacting with an item.
• Sally can spawn as early as Door 1, аn example of a seed where this happens is 2367898.
• Modifiers that increase overall enemy spawn chance ("Bad Time", "Really Bad Time", "Worst Time Ever") also work on Sally's spawn.
• When she damages the player, she also divides their max HP by 1.3, however, if the result of this operation is under 50, it will be set to 50. This gives a huge advantage with the Modifier "Last Breath", as the player's max HP will go from 2 HP to 50 HP.

Jumpscare

1st Person

Sally will jump on the player's face and her smile will be stuck on the screen before fading away.

Bugs

• Sally will disappear after the animation of her breaking into the hotel if the player has God Mode enabled with the Admin Panel.
  • This is due to Sally not having anyone to attack, because God Mode gets rid of any entity interaction whatsoever.
• The player's health bar normally becomes invisible after being jumpscared by Sally.
• If Sally has seen an item, and a player gets it right before Sally reaches it, she will keep walking in a straight line forever.^[8]
  • Doing this, players won't lose any item and won't receive any damage at the same time.
  • This bug is now patched.
• An interaction indicator appears when a player stands near Sally and points the camera toward her while she's playing with an item. However, interacting with her seemingly does nothing other than crucifying her (only if a Crucifix is held).
• The animation of Sally playing with items is broken because of the different shapes and sizes, but Redibles confirmed Sally will get more polish in future updates.

Strategy

• If any player has an item, they can drop it so Sally gets it and stops chasing players. If the run is in multiplayer, any item dropped from anyone will cancel Sally completely.
  • If the players have no items to drop, it is very hard to avoid her jumpscare and damage.
    • If this is the case, the safest thing they can do is trying to run away from her, so she finds another item in the way while she is chasing you, as she will also get distracted by items that are on tables or in open containers.
  • A Crucifix is useful against Sally if players are in a critical situation.
• Sally moves quickly, so it is recommended for players to use speed boosting Items and not come close to her.
• Attempting to "juke" Sally will not work, since she phases through walls and move in a straight line towards the player.
  • Although if fast enough, players can outrun her so she doesn't catch you for an extended period of time.
• Players need to make sure to not get jumpscared inside a Firedamp room, as Sally will decrease heavily the player's oxygen, making them die in a matter of seconds, or even instantly. There is almost no chance of survival unless the player is right by the door.

Trivia

• RediblesQW and Ghostly_Wowzers, who are DOORS developers, had originally stated that Sally's filename is "Sally". ^[9][3]
  • Sally's filename was never referenced in-game.
  • Ghostly_Wowzers previously stated that it is simply the name she is referred to as.^[10]
  • Before Sally's "official" name was known, the DOORS community nicknamed her as "Window", due to her spawn location.
• Sally is voiced by archivedmc. ^[11]
• Sally is the oldest model created for the game, even older than the Figure, being created on January 31st, 2021.^[12][13]
• Sally's lobby model is a 3D model, not a decal or a particle emitter.
  • This is almost unnoticeable in-game without the use of free-camera exploits.
  • Sally's model when outside a window is 2D. However, once she jumps out, it is seen as a 3D model.
• According to the meshes used for the old version of Sally, her eyes weigh 29 grams and her full mouth weighs 35 grams. This equals to her weight in real life being 64 grams.
  • However, in the Tower Heroes Collab, the eyes mesh is separated into two meshes, the same goes for her mouth; her left eye weights 16 grams, the right eye weighs 19 grams, her upper jaw weighs 13 grams and her lower jaw weights 18; thus, even though her Tower Heroes counterpart is smaller, she weighs more (66 grams).
• Ghostly_Wowzers previously confirmed that Sally would never be related to any in-game achievements, because she is "only an easter egg".^[14] Wowzers has also stated and that Sally would likely remain an easter egg "for now",^[15] but that she possibly would have an in-game mechanic in the future.^[16][17] With the addition of the "Playtime" and "Playtime's Over" badges, this statement is now outdated.
• RediblesQW has implied the existence of a UGC Sally-themed backpack. ^[18]
• Sally's design was inspired by a Charlie shadow from Don't Starve.^[19]
  • Sally's design also resembles Frenzy from Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion.
• While it was thought that Sally was a reference to The Backrooms' Smiler Entity, RediblesQW confirmed that this was only a coincidence.^{[citation needed]}
• The jump animation for Sally right before her jumpscare and her face fading away right after might be a reference to Phantom Foxy from Five Nights at Freddy's 3, as their jumpscares are both very similar.
• Sally's jumpscare may be inspired by this video since the lights flicker when they are encountered and they both jump at the player. This video has also been referenced before in the 2023 April Fools event.
• Sally existed in-game before the Hotel+ Update as an easter egg. She appeared very rarely in the windows just as a smile, and she would disappear after the next clap of thunder. She was removed in the Hotel+ update, being only visible in the Lobby, as she also was previously.
  • Sally, in her old behavior, just like most rare entities, could 'kill' players indirectly by distracting players to their window and giving them less time to react to a possible threat.
  • Eventually, after a long time, Sally was re-implemented in The Content Update to the game, with her current behavior.
• Sally is one of the two entities from The Hotel to not appear in The Mines, likely due to the fact that there are no windows for her to appear in. The other entity is Snare.
• Sally is one of five entities that can be found inside the Lobby, the other four being Seek (in the form of its eyes), Timothy, Curious Light (seen outside, lighting up The Backdoor entrance), and Figure (festering meat).
  • Sally is seen to be wearing a jack-o-lantern mask in the Lobby during 2024 Trick Or Treat Event.
• Before The Content Update, a user on Twitter asked if Sally was removed from the game, and Lightning Splash simply replied with "Fair be prepared", which hinted towards her current mechanic.^[20]
• ”Snooping as usual, I see?” is a reference to the PINGAS meme from the The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog episode “Boogey-Mania”
• The "Playtime" achievement's name and description is a reference to Playtime from Baldi's Basics.
  • The achievement "Playtime's Over" description might be a reference to Andy in Toy Story 2.
• Sally is currently the only confirmed female entity in the game.
