This page contains an unofficial/undisclosed title, which will be changed in future.


The Mall will be a location that appears in "Holiday Horror". It is the first map in Chapter 5, and is inhabited by the Red Stalkers, alongside the boss enemy: the Puppet King.

Appearance[]

The first teaser of the mall that we have is the garage, likely the starting point of the level, which shows cars parked all around, along with ventilation and pipes on the ceiling. There's also arrows on the road along with an arrow on the sign that says "Mall Entrance" to the front of the mall. The front of the mall has the word "ENTRANCE" over it, including the words "WEST A" next to the doors, which are likely automatic doors. It seems to also have some storage such as crates. There are ladders, cones, and some trash bins in front of a door saying "Staff Only" with a vent next to it. There are also hanging lights in front of the mall entrance.

The second teaser of the mall, (shown on twitter) is of the "Food Court". The area includes many restaurants and a play area at the center of the room. The Play Place has many slides, a doll/play house, a sandbox, and multiple carpets. Located near the top edges of the border around the play place, there is a Christmas tree surrounded by presents. Outside of the play place, the restaurants which were previously mentioned include "EL ANTO", "BURGER HOUR", "THE ICELAND", and some other names which are covered by pillars and can not be fully viewed. Closer to the edge of the food court, there are tables, pillars, vents, a list of some kind, many large lamps (like the ones found on streets), a trash can, cloths near the previously mentioned restaurants, and a food stand. Part of the second floor is also teased in the second concept art.

Trivia[]

  • The Mannequins mall will be an "American" type mall.
    • As revealed with the release of two new Chapter 5 soundtracks, it's very possible that the Mall will be a Christmas-themed level heavily influenced by the 80's.
      • This is proven by the evergreen tree and the presents in the second concept art.
  • Despite being run down and abandoned, Vince said that the Mall will have a holiday vibe, though there is nothing ice related in the Mall.
  • According to a Q&A, some shops in the Mall will be interactive, some of them even with secrets, as there will be things to do in the Mall apart from collecting soul shards, like the bonus DD 2D mobile game as a special interactive mini-game.
  • Vince said that the Mall is Puppet King's throne.
  • There are no cameras in the mall, though there is a food court with a "funny thing", and a Santa Claus Statue in the mall just for decoration.
  • In the 16th Q&A, it was confirmed that the mall has more floors than "Torment Therapy", is larger than Mascot Mayhem and contains 3 zones in total.
    • Zone 2 will be the smallest one. It's bigger than "Bearly Buried" Zone 2 because of the tight spaces it has, other than that both are of a similar size, though Zone 3 will be similar to "Bearly Buried" Zone 3 in terms of having surreal elements.
  • According to Vince in the 17th Q&A, the mall's exterior won't be shown during any point in the level.
  • In the 26th Q&A, Vince revealed that the Red Stalkers and their variants, along with Puppet King, are the only enemies in the level, and each Zone in the mall will have its own original traps (with some being organic) and variations of Mannequins.
