The Great Outdoors update for Roblox DOORS has introduced a whole new setting and a host of fresh dangers. Instead of creeping through tight hotel hallways, players now face sprawling forests, eerie clearings, and adventures in mysterious ruins. With this change comes a lineup of unique entities that each pose new challenges. Understanding their behavior and how to counter them is the key to survival.

There are many new challenges arriving in The Great Outdoors update for Roblox DOORS.

This guide breaks down every major new entity added in the Great Outdoors update for Roblox DOORS, including what they do, how to recognize them, and tips to avoid an untimely jump scare.

How do you survive the Monument in Roblox DOORS?

The Monument is a spider‑like predator disguised as a crumbling obelisk that kills anyone who looks away from it. Shorter than normal statues and cracked at the base, its vine‑covered form resembles a broken monument until it stands up on eight spider legs. When players stop watching, it creeps closer; if it reaches you, it stabs for 35 damage or devours you instantly.

As soon as you hear footsteps running towards you, immediately look around until you spot the Monument, or face an early end to your run.

To survive the Monument, you must maintain line of sight. It cannot move when observed, so a single player can keep it still while others explore. Identify fake obelisks by looking for vines, cracks, or missing bases. The Groundskeeper’s lantern sometimes reveals Monuments, and you can hear a faint breathing or heartbeat as you approach.

Tips for dealing with Monument:

• Always keep eyes on the obelisk; blink or look away only when far enough to avoid a rush.
• In multiplayer, assign one person to stare at the Monument while others progress through the room.
• Real monuments are solid stone; fake Monuments may have vines, cracks or no base.
• Use the Groundskeeper’s light to reveal hidden Monuments; he will point them out if nearby.

How do you survive Mandrakes in DOORS?

Mandrake is a plant creature that pops out of the ground and emits a deadly scream that kills anyone who fails to placate it. Only a few leaves show above the soil until it emerges; its true form is a pinkish-gray, turnip-shaped being with yellow eyes. When it screams, the player’s vision darkens and death follows unless the Mandrake is returned to its hole.

Mandrakes are more annoying than anything, and can be easily handled as long as you keep a cool head through its constant screaming.

To survive, grab the Mandrake immediately and replant it, or bring it to the Groundskeeper for disposal. You can also drop it and run away; the scream dissipates once you are far enough. Mandrakes may detach from their vine and roll after you, continuing to wail until you are out of range.

Survival tips for Mandrake:

• Pull the Mandrake from its vine and plant it back in the hole before it finishes screaming.
• Alternatively, deliver it to the Groundskeeper; he will kill Mandrakes instantly.
• Do not stand near Mandrake holes—its scream will blur your vision and lead to death.
• If carrying Mandrake isn’t possible, outrun it until the scream stops; rolling Mandrakes eventually stop wailing.

How do you deal with the Groundskeeper in Roblox DOORS?

The Groundskeeper is a neutral entity who maintains the Outdoors’ lawns and will punish anyone who tramples his grass. He resembles an old gardener with glowing yellow eyes, a scythe, and vine-covered bones. He spawns near outhouses and usually tends to the grass; stepping on his turf or staring at him triggers a warning grunt. If players ignore this and remain on the grass, he charges and kills them with a scythe or stomps them instantly.

The Groundskeeper in DOORS can be both your greatest ally or enemy, depending on the situation.

Despite this, the Groundskeeper can assist players. He kills Mandrakes, Eyestalks and Monuments, directs players to hidden dangers, and hides from Surge inside his outhouse. He only attacks when grass is disturbed, making him a valuable ally if respected.

How to deal with the Groundskeeper:

• Stay on pathways or structures; avoid stepping on grass near the Groundskeeper.
• If he grunts or looks at you, step off the grass immediately to calm him.
• Let him kill Mandrakes and Monuments; his attacks will not harm you unless you are on his grass.
• If he becomes hostile, hide in a closet or building. There is no Hide entity in the outdoors, so you can stay inside safely.

How do you survive Surge in DOORS?

Surge is a hostile storm that manifests as lime-yellow lightning bolts before turning into a luminous mass that deals damage to anyone caught outside shelter. Its arrival is signaled by crackling electricity and a loud screech. Once it forms, Surge moves toward players and delivers continuous damage (40 per second) until they die.

The Surge is one of those “png” enemies in DOORS, since its appearance is essentially a static image that hurts you if it’s nearby.

Survivors must find cover. Hiding inside houses, caves, closets or porch roofs is the only way to avoid Surge’s damage. Unlike the hotel, there is no Hide entity in the Outdoors, so you can stay in closets indefinitely. Surge spawns on a timer and may appear multiple times; staying in one room accelerates its arrival.

Survival tips for Surge:

• Listen for crackling and look for lime-yellow lightning as an early warning.
• Immediately seek shelter in a house, cave, or closet when Surge begins.
• Do not leave hiding until Surge fully dissipates; its damage persists as long as it is nearby.
• In multiplayer, warn teammates and coordinate hiding spots; Surge can occur more often if players linger in one area.

What is Snare in Roblox DOORS and How do you Avoid its Traps?

Snare is a plant-like hazard that camouflages among leaves and roots, grabbing your ankles and dealing 20 damage while immobilizing you for a few seconds. It cannot kill by itself but can be lethal when you need to flee from other entities. Snare is non-exclusive, appearing in the Hotel and Outdoors floor. If you are snared, you cannot move or hide until it releases you, leaving you vulnerable to Rush, Ambush, Surge, or Eyestalk.

When walking outdoors in DOORS, always keep an eye on where you’re going as you may accidentally step on a Snare and get a nasty surprise.

To avoid Snare, keep your lantern or flashlight active and watch the ground for leafy patches. Snare vines always appear in the middle of paths or near trees, so stay on clear ground. If caught, do not panic, and quickly step free when released and avoid stepping on it again.

Tips to deal with Snare:

• Keep a light source on to reveal Snare patches; they are easier to spot with a lantern.
• Walk around leafy roots or vines on the path; Snare is always stationary.
• If you step on one, be prepared to run once released; it holds you for a few seconds but does not kill outright.
• Avoid Snare during chase events; they can prevent you from hiding from Surge or Eyestalk.

How do you escape Eyestalk in Roblox DOORS?

Eyestalk is a tree-like entity that triggers a chase sequence when encountered. It appears as an aspen tree with eye-shaped markings; when awakened, vines twist into arms and legs, forming a monster that charges through a series of rooms. Players must run along a winding path, avoiding Snare traps and dead ends, while Eyestalk pursues them.

While scary and relentless, you can avoid the Eyestalk in doors as long as you keep running.

The chase is similar to the Seek chase in the Hotel. Players must choose correct doorways and avoid obstacles. Eyestalk will catch you if you slow down, immobilizing you with vines and hitting twice, killing the player. At the end of the chase, the Groundskeeper intervenes and slices Eyestalk in half, ending the threat.

Tips to survive Eyestalk:

• Keep running and do not stop; Eyestalk is relentless.
• Use your lantern to spot Snare traps and avoid them during the chase.
• Doors with vines may indicate dead ends; listen for directional sound cues or follow the Groundskeeper’s lantern beam if visible.

How do you avoid Bramble’s light in Roblox DOORS?

Bramble is a humanoid tangle of vines topped with a lantern head that prowls the hedge maze. Its light turns off and on; when the light is off, Bramble is harmless and players can move around it. When the light turns on, any movement triggers spiked vines from the ground that kill instantly. Bramble can also possess lampposts and teleport between them, leaving behind a cracked lantern as a warning.

The Bramble is one of the most threatening entities in The Great Outdoors update for DOORS, but can be easily avoided if you follow our indications.

To survive, treat Bramble like Red Light, Green Light. When its lantern glows, stop moving and hide behind hedges or shelves. You can safely stand still until the light goes off, then continue. Avoid lampposts as they can turn into Brambles. There’s a blind spot at the maze entrance where Bramble cannot see you.

Bramble survival tips:

• Watch the lantern head; green/off means move, yellow/on means stop.
• Hide behind walls or furniture when the light is on; this blocks Bramble’s line of sight.
• Avoid lampposts; Bramble can teleport into them and spawn suddenly.
• Use shelves or wood storage to build mini-bases; they block Bramble and crossbow cultists if you layer them properly.

The Great Outdoors update has transformed Roblox DOORS into a completely different experience, filled with new environmental hazards and entities that punish both carelessness and overconfidence. From the sound-sensitive Monument to the patience-testing Bramble, each new creature tests survival skills in unique ways.

No matter which entity you encounter, remember that calmness, observation, and timing are often more powerful than speed or aggression. And if you want to enjoy DOORS with sharper graphics, smoother controls, and the comfort of a larger screen, try playing on PC with BlueStacks for the ultimate survival experience.
