The Thousand-Year Door, like the [[Crystal Stars]] and the Palace of Shadow it leads to, was created to hold back [[Shadow Queen|a horrifying demon]] that had destroyed the town that once stood within Rogueport's boundaries. The [[Black Chest Demon|Four Heroes]]' designing made it so that the Crystal Stars were required to open this door, although their seal on the door would only last for a thousand years and was therefore continually weakening before the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. When [[Mario]] placed all seven Crystal Stars before the door, the dark power caused the door and walls around it to crack. A vortex spewed out, and for the first time in a millennia, the Shadow Queen's stolen home was open. During the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', the so-called "treasure" that had been spread in rumors is revealed the Shadow Queen herself, but the ending actually shows that there was another treasure behind it: a near-useless [[Dried Shroom]], which could have been a much more powerful mushroom in the past but dried out over time. Its discoverer, [[Professor Frankly]], is still happy with his finding, because it is proof that civilizations ate mushrooms 1000 years ago.

The Thousand-Year Door is an object in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. This massive door is said to have a treasure behind it. Generations of locals have created myths about what is behind it, and nobody knew that it turned out to be the entrance of the Palace of Shadow. The only character who knows Rogueport's true history is Grifty.

The pedestal in front of the Thousand-Year Door

The Thousand-Year Door, like the Crystal Stars and the Palace of Shadow it leads to, was created to hold back a horrifying demon that had destroyed the town that once stood within Rogueport's boundaries. The four heroes' design made it so that the Crystal Stars were required to open this door. However, their seal on the door would last for only 1,000 years and was, therefore, continually weakening before the game's events. When Mario places all seven Crystal Stars before the door, the dark power causes the door and walls around it to crack. A vortex spews out, and the entrance to the Palace of Shadow is opened. The so-called treasure spread in rumors is revealed as the Shadow Queen herself, but the ending shows a Dried Mushroom. Its discoverer, Professor Frankly, is still happy with his finding because it proves that civilizations ate mushrooms 1,000 years ago.
