(Minor Spoilers) Mysterious Door?

[Chaz]

There's a door in a cave just outside Snowdin. There's four glowing mushrooms that I can interact with to turn their lights off. Anyone figured out how to open this, or if it'll be relevant later in the plot? I don't wanna go too far ahead without figuring out this secret, haha.

[Dr Gamma]

I'm stuck on that too. Wondering if there's any relevance to the door right now, or just for something later. Tried all combinations of mushrooms, door doesn't open.

One might notice that there's also groups of glowing mushrooms in other rooms further into the game (though not very far at all), both of which have 4 mushrooms in each group as well. I've only found two groups, since I haven't finished the game yet, so I have no clue if there's more. But it's a safe assumption that it's related. Might not be, though. We'll just have to see when someone figures everything out. I've tried all sorts of combinations with all three groups of mushrooms, personally, but cant seem to figure anything out myself.

I messed with it for a bit as well, could get nothing to happen. It looks exactly like the door Toriel was going to destroy, so I would assume it leads back to the Ruins?

The floating dots make different sounds depending on which ones you touch. Also the symbol on the door is Toriel's symbol. Make of this what you will.

Toby Fox himself said: "You're better off forgetting about that door, it will only lead you to dispair" in another post.

The plot thickens. I'll keep playing. Loving the game so far.

This further leads me to believe that it involves Toriel.

I found out what it does when I beat the game...

It's a plot point at the end. Talk to Sans more.

Wait, what? I thought I got the true end, but I don't remember him talking about that door. I remember him talking about the one you go through, but... Did I miss something?

If you didn't take Sans up on his two offers to go to the bar/restaurant, you may have missed the bits when he talks about the door.

I'm not sure if it had to do with me never dying up til then, but at the MTT hotel when Sans offers to hang with you, he explains that he found a door near Snowden that he tells a story about. I'm not sure what opens that door, or if it's even openable, but it is a sad story all the same . And I am going to be playing through this again to figure it out.

the door sans is talking about is actually the one you exit the ruins from yourself before meeting him. calling papyrus outside it confirms this

[Madness]

Toby said that someone called someone and idiot for how to open the door. Turns out that solution was right.

What thread on what website that was in however, I don't know.

[Herb]

The website was one with a four leaf clover.

The solution is: Don't touch any of the names during the extra credits.

Probably requires you to get the True Ending as well.

Having not beaten the game yet but open to spoilers, I'm so glad I saw this warning first.

Oh. Wow. ...is that even humanly possible?
I can see what Toby meant by saying that trying to open it will "only lead you to despair".

Anyone mind spoiling what's behind there?
