Title: [Question] Has anyone working the night shift at the warehouse heard of the "Fifth Door"?
I'm not here to waste your time; I genuinely need to know if I'm the only one who has seen this. Please, hear me out—
I work the night shift at the S-7 storage facility in Nan City Industrial Zone. At the end of the shipping area, there’s a long corridor that normally has four doors, each corresponding to different storage units. I've been working here for six months, and I know the positions of those doors like the back of my hand. But… a week ago, I was certain that a "Fifth Door" had appeared at the end of that corridor.
The door is made of metal, an old kind, like something taken from a derelict school. There’s no sign or number on it, just a symbol burned into the door panel: a very unsettling "5," almost handwritten, but the strokes seem to have scorched through the metal, charred and twisted.
I thought it might be a structural change by the company that hadn’t been communicated, so I asked my supervisor. He looked confused and said there had never been a "Fifth Door" there. I took him to see it, but when we reached the end of the corridor… the door was gone.
You read that right. **The door vanished.** I stared at that wall for several seconds, seeing nothing as if I had imagined it. But I swear it was there before.
The real strangeness began at 2 AM that night. While I was checking shipping orders, I heard knocking.
Not ordinary knocking—it sounded like "bones" tapping against metal, very light yet clear.
Knock… knock… knock…
Three knocks, evenly spaced. I took my flashlight to look; the corridor was completely empty, not a sound to be heard. Just as I turned to head back to my office, the sound came again.
This time, it wasn’t knocking; it was whispering.
It was as if dozens of people were speaking at once in my ear—not in Chinese or any language I could understand. The voices varied in pitch—some male, some female—some sounded like children while others were hoarse old men. Yet their tone was consistent—it felt like they were chanting something or counting heads.
I was covered in goosebumps and ran away.
When I got home that day and took a shower, I noticed my knee was "bent in the wrong direction." You didn’t mishear me; I saw in the mirror that my leg joint seemed to have briefly "dislocated," but minutes later it returned to normal. I went to see an orthopedic doctor, but he said there was nothing wrong with me.
Then I started dreaming.
In my dreams, I stood before that "Fifth Door."
Something behind the door is breathing.
I don't know what it looks like, but I know it "is not a person," nor is it any kind of animal. Its breath sounds like a mix of machinery and blood vessels.
In my dreams, I am constantly urged to "respond." The moment I speak, it draws closer. I tried to remain silent, but then I heard that phrase—
"It's not your turn to close the door yet."
...I know this sounds insane. But if you ever work the night shift in the Nan City Industrial Zone, especially in area S-7, do not look back at the end of that corridor at 2 AM.
Please.
If you really see that door, say nothing. Whatever you do, don’t respond.
📄【Appendix: Out-of-Control Personnel Observation Record】
ID: B-12-ALPHA
Record Personnel: Lin Yunchen (Observation Assistant, later reassigned)
Observer Shen An executed a routine Doorbell structure approach lockdown operation at 2:06 AM on April 3, 2023. According to surveillance Record, he unauthorizedly approached the Fifth Door, placing his hand on the center of the Door Structure. At this moment, there was severe interference in the footage, resulting in a monitoring failure for 4 minutes and 26 seconds.
After reconnecting the footage, Shen was gone. The Door Structure remained closed, showing no obvious signs of deformation or opening.
Three days later (April 6), he was found at 9:32 AM in the equipment storage room of C Zone, curled up inside a locker. He had no visible injuries but exhibited significant dehydration of the eyeballs.
The following are fragments of writing left on the ground when he was discovered, inscribed with blood from his fingertips:
"There is no light behind the door, only 'fragments of names' reflecting myself like glass, yet none of them are me."
"They do not speak; they only repeat every word I've said and then answer for me."
"Time does not exist there; only waiting. Every version of me waits for me to die before sitting down."
Shen continued to exhibit symptoms of auditory hallucinations, aphasia, and disordered speech patterns, claiming "there is a second set of Vocal Cords inside me speaking words I do not wish to say." His voice pattern differed from original recordings and has been transferred to the Eighth Containment Center for observation.
⚠ Note: The Door Structure exhibited three more brief openings within 14 days following the incident, each accompanied by "echoes of repeated speech" and an unknown odor dispersing, suggesting that internal linguistic structures have activated circulation.
Recommendation: Conduct sound cleansing after each incident and perform low-frequency re-screening on all physical recording equipment at the scene to avoid residual speech sequences activating potential echoers.
**Report Number:** B-12
**Category:** Door-type Interdimensional Link (Quasi-active)
**Source of Report:** Anonymous Internet Forum Backtrack Record, Automated Crawling System (Codename: Naiad)
**Initial Detection Date:** May 11, 2022
**Investigation Location:** Nan City Industrial Zone S-7 Storage Corridor End Area
**I. Summary of Anomaly:**
The center of the phenomenon is an "unregistered iron door structure." According to eyewitness accounts, it bears a hand-welded '5' symbol, and surrounding surveillance equipment experiences brief signal loss and image distortion. Related Door Structure was only observed between 1:55 AM and 2:10 AM, with the rest of the time presenting as an empty wall structure.
**II. Symptoms and Behavior of Anomaly:**
After prolonged observation of the door (>7 seconds), observers report hearing "multiple non-verbal whispers," with abnormal brain resonance signals.
Individuals who come into contact with the Door Structure exhibit a tendency for "joint dislocation" and repetitive dream behaviors within 72 hours, involving dark corridors and backward counting rituals.
If a response is given after the first knock, the witness may experience communication loss Record or be affected by "Familial Cognition Displacement" in the following days.
**III. Online Report Analysis:**
According to monitoring by the automated crawler Naiad, from 2018 to 2023, a total of 16 suspected "Fifth Door" phenomenon online statements Record were captured, distributed as follows:
Regions: Taiwan (8), Malaysia (3), Czech Republic (2), Chile (1), Untracked IPs (2)
Common Features: All mention a non-existent door, low-frequency knocking sounds at fixed midnight intervals, and memory loss or dream erosion after verbal responses to the Door Structure.
Representative Excerpts:
"I asked who he was inside that door, and he replied with My Name." (June 2, 2020, Malaysia Forum "Night Shift Guardian")
"That’s not an iron door; it’s a closed face." (October 21, 2019, Czech Anonymous Deep Web Comment)
**IV. Disposal Recommendations:**
Immediately seal off the S-7 storage corridor, installing visual barriers with black film and reverse sound wave interference.
All employees must sign the "Structural Visual Ambiguity Cognition Clause" and are prohibited from approaching the endpoint area alone during the early morning hours.
If knocking sounds occur again, all forms of verbal, written, or physical responses are strictly forbidden.
Note:
It is speculated that this phenomenon may be related to the "Non-Surface Genetic Linguistic Constructs Entity" interference, which shows a tendency to spread. Its characteristics are similar to those of the D Zone numbered R-22 (Whispering Trench) in its early manifestations, but it exhibits higher proactivity.
Further monitoring of the Forum's word frequency anomalies is required. If a mention of a second door arises, initiate the first phase of the "Gate Ring Clearance Plan."
Urban Anomaly Observation Group | Gate Ring Clearance Plan Briefing | Level: Gray-Special
Plan Number: GATE-RING-01
Activation Date: February 18, 2023
Responsible Unit: Urban Anomaly Observation Group, Sixth Division, Entrance Interference Action Department
Plan Objective:
To identify, isolate, eliminate, and trace the pollution source of the gradually emerging "Simulated Gate Structure Entity" (abbreviated as Doorbell), which exhibits characteristics linked to otherworldly connections. This aims to prevent its spread into a circular incremental structure that could lead to a collapse of perceptual ecology.
1. Gate Ring Phenomenon Amplification Record:
Since early 2023, numerous reports have emerged globally regarding unregistered iron doors or unnamed entrances with similar structures. As of the first season of 2024, the number of observed Door Structures has surged to 112, distributed as follows:
Asia Region: 42 (including 4 in Hong Kong City's underground passages, 11 in industrial areas, and 17 within shopping mall structures)
European Region: 31 (of which 15 are related to abandoned medical facilities)
South America Region: 16 (most located in mountainous areas)
North America and Polar Regions: 23 (including 3 appearing in military blockades)
2. Doorbell Anomalous Characteristics:
The latest Door Structure is a non-static structure with slight mobility, capable of reconstructing its appearance based on the observer's memory of its location.
The frequency of the Door Structure knocking sound has decreased from 13Hz to 9Hz, increasing its influence on the Dental Bone and Dream Path.
The Mimetic Gate Structure can mimic everyday walls, storage cabinet doors, or elevator rear doors, misleading contacts into opening them voluntarily.
3. Elimination Process (Stages One to Three):
Detection: Daily monitoring of over 3,000 abnormal entry and exit images and reporting Record.
Blocking: Utilizing the Sound Wave Cloaking Device and Inverse Light Memory Pattern Projection to obscure the structural site.
Eradication: Deploying a Neutral Gloss Agent that suppresses linguistic interference and physically welding the Door Structure shut.
Retrospective Analysis: Analyzing remnants of "Heterogeneous Instruction Fragments" in witness language to locate the source of propagation.
4. Subsequent Monitoring Actions:
Currently, a suspected Sixth Stage Gate Ring has formed, exhibiting complete closed-loop connectivity. Entry will result in observers experiencing "Identification Disorder" and "Real Name System Rejection Reaction." This team recommends raising the alert level to "Black-Invisibility Level" and including it within the Super Sensory Contact blocking range.
⚠ If the Door Structure exhibits self-naming behavior (such as linguistic markings appearing on the door panel or reverse writing of the observer's name), it should be regarded as the final form of GATE-RING, necessitating immediate implementation of environmental reverse isolation procedures.
