Are the worst monsters the ones that can open doors or the ones that can't?

the ones that can of course!!! if they can open doors then they can come and get you!!! if they can't open doors you just shut the door and you're safe!!!

That's what I thought. But then some other things arose. Sure you are in more constant danger from one that can open doors, but if it has normal enough apendages to open doors, is it really that dangerous? What about the large wolf like creature hiding in your bathroom ready to pounce!

Yes, well I did consider that... the possibility of stumbling upon a monster that had been trapped behind a door... but I figured that a monster who could open doors could still hide behind a door and wait for you to open it... even though they could open it themselves...

But the door opening monster would still be less scary that one that couldn't because it has big fuck off claws. Also there are the mosters that don't need doors... those are the worst.

The samurai guards in the Ninja-Games (Wrath of Heaven, Fatal Shadows et al) can't open doors. You'll enter a room without checking first, and a guard will see you and start chasing you and trying to hack at you with his sword...then you run back through the door you came in by, it slides closed and you're safe. The guard will patrol outside the closed door futile-ly for a while, then give up and decide that you are clearly not around anymore and he's totally safe now, and go back to guard duty.
Then you run back through the door and stealth-kill him, and he never ever sees it coming.

Some minder must deliver these guys to work every morning - 'Now Hayashi, you gotta nother big day of guard duty, we know you'll do a great job, here have a rice ball, and I'll be back at 6 to open this magic portal in the wall called a "door" and let you out so you can go home! Good luck, buddy! You get those ninjas!'
Sigh...
