9. Living As A Demon Door - Fable

Everyone has seen the memes and jokes about children being so terrible at acting in the school play that they're forced to play an inanimate object, like a door.

Well, imagine if that happened to you, and you were cast as a door, but it was your eternal existence. It sounds hellish, right? But, that is the fate of the many Demon Doors found throughout the Fable franchise.

These talking gateways to bizarre and unpredictable worlds can be found across the land of Albion, and they all come with different personalities, hopes, and desires. However, it's very clear to players that many of these doors are living a horrible existence.

They're stuck in place, for years upon years, waiting for someone to come along and successfully open them up. The boredom must be unreal; in fact, several doors reference how dull their lives are.

Making this all the more terrifying is that the games imply that some of these doors used to be human. Going from a living, breathing person to a glorified entrance is no one's idea of a good time.
