How do I open the big fancy doors next to the floor pentagram?
  • 1 of 6: Have you tried stepping inside the pentagram?
  • 2 of 6: Nice colored fires, huh?
  • 3 of 6: I wonder if they might have something to do with opening the door.
  • 4 of 6: Actually, they do, but you don't usually need them.
  • 5 of 6: The doors are a bit glitchy, and you need to be in a certain position to open them. Try standing up against them on the right and using them from there.
  • 6 of 6: NOTE: If you somehow make it to these doors at the very beginning of the game, they probably won't open unless you do the floor pentagram sequence.
