The '''Door to Darkness''', also known as '''Final Door''' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', is an object from the ''[[Kingdom Hearts (series)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' games. A trademark of the series, the Door is a tall, white door first seen in ''Kingdom Hearts'' in the [[End of the World]]. Beyond the door is the Realm of Darkness where [[Kingdom Hearts]], the heart of all worlds, resides. It is referred to by [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] multiple times in the quote "The Door is open!", which is also spoken by [[Riku]] when [[Destiny Islands]] is swallowed by the darkness at the beginning of Sora's adventures.

==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
After the battle with the World of Chaos, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness opens the door and asks that Kingdom Hearts fill him with the power of darkness. To his horror, however, Kingdom Hearts is revealed to be light and it destroys him. Afterwards, Sora, Donald, Goofy, and the restored Riku attempt to close the door, but their efforts are futile. However, King Mickey appears, and they manage to close the door. As they do so, the [[Mickey Mouse|King]] assures Sora, Donald, and Goofy that there will always be a [[Door To Light|door to the light]], and Sora and Mickey then use their respective [[Keyblade]]s to seal the Door to Darkness forever.

===''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories''===

The Door to Darkness appeared in Sora's memories when Roxas was dreaming about them. It is also connected to [[Space Paranoids]]. [[Tron]] needs a password to access the "''D.T.D.''", and when [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] return to [[Radiant Garden]], [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]] reveals that the "''D.T.D.''" refers to the Door to Darkness. Since the seven [[Princesses of Heart]] were required to open the Door to Darkness, the names of the Princesses were the password. In order to prevent the [[Master Control Program|MCP]] from accessing the data within, Tron changes the password to the names of Sora, Donald, and Goofy.

After Xemnas escapes Sora and his friends at the [[Castle That Never Was#Altar of Naught|Altar of Naught]] by merging with his Kingdom Hearts, a door similar to the Door To Darkness appears, leading to [[the World of Nothing]] Xemnas has created within. Mickey states that the door was a gift from the worlds, who have accepted Sora as their keeper. Sora and the others pass through the door, and after they seemingly defeat Xemnas they return once more to the Altar of Naught, where [[Naminé]] opens a final [[Corridor of Darkness]] to Destiny Islands. Just as Kairi passes through the portal, Xemnas returns on his gigantic Nobody and attacks the tower, dragging Sora and Riku back into the World of Nothing. This time, however, they do not pass through the door.
