Abe’s manor in DOORS hides candy all over the place. The Candy Vault is the game’s Halloween floor for The Hollow event. After Abe’s tour, your objectives read “Break into The Candy Vault” and “Explore Abe’s Manor ( OPTIONAL )”. Abe also mentions that the Butler left appetizers around the house for you to find.
Quick answer: Candies sit on tables, benches and in drawers. Press E to grab one (it shows as “???” in slot 1), then left click to eat it and see its name banner. None gives candy corn.
How to pick up and eat candy in DOORS
Every candy works the same way. You can pick up candy with E and eat it with left click.
After we had eaten one NOTHING?, the second red candy we picked up read “Nothing?” in the hotbar instead of “???”.
Where every candy is in Abe’s manor
There are five kinds of candy around the house, plus the Butler’s appetizer plates in the kitchen.
| Candy | Looks like | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Appetizer plate | Plate of food | Kitchen stove; bar cart by the cook |
| LIFE SAVER | Blue wrap, glowing crescent moon | Foyer bench, foot of the staircase |
| DECENT CANDY | Light-blue wrap | Hall table by the upstairs bedroom door |
| NOTHING? | Red wrap | Nightstand middle drawer; desk by the bedroom door |
| COUGH DROP | Light-blue wrap | Left table on the bedroom’s far wall |
| CAFFEINE CHEW | Red-and-white | Bedroom nightstand drawer |
The red NOTHING? candy is in the nightstand drawer alongside a letter sealed with red wax. The other one is on the desk beside the sofa. COUGH DROP is on the far wall, across from the foot of the bed.
The letter, pencil, papers and cup in the drawers and on the tables have no prompt, but gold can be collected. Opening a nightstand drawer awards 5 gold; a coin pile on an upstairs desk gives 10 gold and makes a gold counter appear next to candy corn.
What each candy does when you eat it
Each candy triggers a banner, and some also alter the screen. They don’t increase your candy corn total: the counter in the top right remains at 0.
Appetizer plate
Press E to take the entire plate into slot 1; the hints “X DROP ITEM” and “INSPECT ITEM” then appear. Left click to eat it. The plate vanishes, leaving a white “>>” icon at the screen’s bottom left. We did not measure what the icon does.
LIFE SAVER
Eating the crescent moon candy from the foyer bench shows the “LIFE SAVER” banner and tints the whole screen blue for a few seconds. We saw no other effect.
DECENT CANDY
The light-blue candy on the upstairs hall table shows the “DECENT CANDY” banner when eaten. No effect seen.
NOTHING?
Either red candy shows the “NOTHING?” banner. After we had eaten the first one, the second showed its name in the hotbar before we ate it. No effect seen.
COUGH DROP
The light-blue candy on the bedroom’s far wall shows the “COUGH DROP” banner when eaten. No effect seen.
CAFFEINE CHEW
The red-and-white candy comes out of a bedroom nightstand drawer.
Eating it shows the “CAFFEINE CHEW” banner and adds a second, purple bar under the existing bar at the bottom left of the screen. That purple bar goes away again later, by the time we were back in the foyer.

- What the appetizer’s “>>” icon does, and what LIFE SAVER and CAFFEINE CHEW do beyond the blue tint and the purple bar.
- Whether the candies are in the same places in every run, and whether there are more kinds.
- Whether candy matters for opening the vault or for Abe’s supper.
- How candy corn is earned.
