Keep the Door Locked: Answered Prayer — What It Included
The Answered Prayer event in Keep the Door Locked has finished its run, wrapping up on August 28, 2026 after a full week on the calendar. The developer, Hotel Room Services, ran it under the banner of a “Bloodmoon Expansion,” holding back specifics ahead of the start and promising that more details would follow as the week unfolded. It was tagged as a new-content update rather than a standalone release, so it built on the existing horror game rather than resetting it.
Keep the Door Locked is one of the busier Roblox horror titles, holding a live crowd of around about 6,700 players and roughly about 45,000,000 total visits, with about 260,000 favorites. Answered Prayer drew serious attention before it opened, with more than about 240,000 players marking themselves interested.

What Answered Prayer included
The developer kept the listing deliberately sparse. What was confirmed is the framing: a Bloodmoon Expansion layered onto Keep the Door Locked, presented as a limited-window content drop rather than a permanent addition. The Bloodmoon theming pointed to a darker, higher-tension take on the game’s core survival loop for the duration of the week, in keeping with how these horror events tend to raise the stakes while they are live. Beyond that, the official schedule left the details to be discovered in-game, and the event has since closed.
When it ran
Answered Prayer ran for exactly one week, from August 21 at 11:00 AM ET to August 28 at 11:00 AM ET. Because both ends landed at the same clock time, the window translated cleanly across the major world time zones — late afternoon in the UK and Europe, and evening through much of Asia — which made the closing moment easy to catch wherever players logged in from. A week is the standard length for this game’s events, so there was room to work through it at a relaxed pace rather than rushing the opening days.
How it fit the game’s rhythm
Hotel Room Services runs Keep the Door Locked on a brisk, roughly weekly cadence, and Answered Prayer sat right in that flow. It started the same day The Black Carabao was set to close on August 21, and by the time it wrapped up on August 28, the Customization Furniture event was already three days into its own run, with More Encounter next on the schedule. That overlapping pattern, stretching back to the game’s late-July Release week, is the reason regulars can count on something new every few days rather than a long gap between events.
