The Spirit Door:

Item #: x

Object Class: Euclid

Special containment procedures:

x should be kept in a 5x5 meter object containment room, the walls of this room must be lined with at least 0.5cm of lead. A plane of a non-lead material, that's vertically suspendable is necessary for the activation of x. At least one guard should be present in front of the enterance to the containment room at all times, additionally one guard has to be present inside the room when x is in use. Items, and persons should be inspected before entering the containment room, if any items that could cause harm to x are found, the perpetrator is to be sufficiently repremanded, based on the severity of the protocol violation.

Description:

x is a door handle attached to a stainless steel plate, with 5 suction cups attached on the other side by conventional means. Upon contact with most vertical surfaces (from now on reffered to as "projection canvas(es)") the suction cups attach themselves to the surface, and x causes black, scorched marks in the shape of a door to appear. The sizes of the manifested shape vary based on the physical dimensions of the current user. At this point x's handle can be pressed, and opened, akin to a normal door, doing this will cause x to separate from the canvas and act as if it was attached to hinges. Passing through the space between the handle and the "hinges" is impossible (see test log 1).

However making physical contact with the canvas where the door's opening would be, causes the subject if alive to enter a seemingly catatonic state from which subjects can return at will. Subjects report being transported to an unfimiliar enviroment, where objects don't abide the rules of physics. Interactions with entities in this plane are extremely risky, but can prove to be benefitial.

Addendum 1 - recovery:

x was first recovered from a warehouse in Slovakia recently bought from the Czechoslovakian goverment, by a foundation front company, during the privatization period, after the Velvet revolution. It was discovered by a D-class clearing out the aforementioned warehouse. The D-class proceeded to activate, and make contact with the active x. The D-class was discovered recovering from catatonia, in a state of slight daze. After being questioned on what he was doing, a proper debriefing interview was conducted (see attached document no. 1). The on site medical team determined that the subject didn't suffer any physical harm.

Document 1

Recovery D-class debriefing
Interviewer: dr. █████a
Interviewee: D-class 8579


dr: So 8579…
gets cut off by 8579
8579: It's Miroslav
dr continues: …tell us what happened before we found you
8579: Now, either you call me by my name or I don't tell you whatever you want to know, how about that?
dr: Okay Miroslav, enlighten us, tell us what happened.
8579 relaxes: I pressed it, naturally, and a rectangle was burned into the wall, I instinctively knew it was a door.
dr: Go on.
8579: I went in - well tried, I hit the wall, obviously, for a few seconds I was a dissapointed,
8579 smiles: but then - it felt like I fell asleep, and found myself in this, this
8579 stutters: place
dr: Can you elaborate?
8579: I couldn't feel my body, but I could see it, but it wasn't mine, it felt, like I've been there before, Dé jàvu, I panicked thought about what just happened, and there I was again
dr: Is that when we found you?
8579: yes
dr: How come you are not at all phased by all this?
8579 smirking: They didn't tell you, did they?
dr: Tell us what?
8579 starts laughing uncontrollably
8579: I know what these things are, I used to work with them, just like you do now.
dr: Sorry, what?

After the events of the transcript site managment was contacted, about the background of D8579.

Conclusion: D8579, a former paranormal researcher for the USSR, became a political prisoner after expressing sympathy towards the eurocommunist movement, which sought to undermine USSR influence, and reintroduce free speech, while maintaining communist ideals. In 1985 he was one of the last prisoners used as test-subjects for the same facilty. The documents, about him were burned, and he wasn't released in the big amenesty of 1990. After the regimes collapse he was handed over to the foundation as a standard D-class. 8579 insisted that one of his ex coworkers burned the documents out of spite, but these claims could not be confirmed.

Addendum 2 - test log 2

2 weeks following the events of addendum 1, Miroslav ███████ volunteered to assist in the further experimentation with x. Granted, research before this point was postboned, D-class is instructed to try to conjure a notepad while under the effects of x

Miroslav ███████: Hello, my name is Miroslav, today you'll be helping us understand what the thing known as x actually is.
D5795 sighs
Miroslav ███████: Look, I mean you no harm, just try to cooperate, and I'll do my best to vouch for you.
D5795 scoffs: Yeah, right but approaches x
Miroslav ███████: We'll need you to press and pull the handle, just as if it were a door
D5795 complies
x activates
D5795 does so and enters catatonia typical of x
