Just A Prank in DOORS: How to Survive a Giggle Attack

Updated 03.10.2026· Author: Mark K

Where to get it

Hear giggling overhead, take one step forward, and suddenly a face blocks your view. That’s Giggle, and if you survive its attack, you’ll earn Just A Prank. You’re most likely to run into it in The Mines. It only appears in The Hotel with Modifiers.

How to get it

Go into The Mines with plenty of health: when it drops onto your face, you lose 10 health, and each bite takes another 7.
Walk under Giggle. It’ll drop from the ceiling and block almost your entire view.
Try to shake it off right away to stop the attack.
When the attack ends, Giggle gets knocked away, lies on the floor for a bit, and disappears. If you’re still alive, the badge is yours.

How hard is it?

This badge is common: about 12.8 million players have earned it, or roughly 2 out of every 100 players who entered DOORS. Giggle is only dangerous when you’re low on health. I don’t go looking for it on purpose; it finds me on its own.

Tip

Before entering a room with giggling, I check my health bar. If it’s low, I shine a light at the ceiling and go through the room with a Flashlight in hand.

How to Stun Giggle Ahead of Time

You have to survive the attack to earn the badge, but it doesn’t say the attack has to last long. Light helps. A Flashlight, Bulklight, Laser Pointer, or Shakelight can stun Giggle for a short time. Straplight doesn’t affect it.

Throwing a glowstick right at it will also stun it. You can shine light through walls, even through walls in rooms that are still closed.

Giggle Above the Door and Other Nasty Surprises

Sometimes Giggle hangs right above a door, so you can’t get past without stunning it. That’s a perfect chance to earn the badge: let it drop, as long as you have enough health.

It’s worse when Screech shows up during the attack. You can’t see, sounds are muffled, and you still have to find it. Giggle’s laughter can also attract Figure. That’s why I don’t try for this badge near Figure’s caves.

With the Dripped Out Modifier, Giggles wear glasses, and light doesn’t affect them. You can still hit them.

Frequently asked questions

What does the badge say?

“It was just a prank, bro!”

Can you get the badge in The Hotel?

Yes, if you turn on Giggle Modifiers. Then Giggles appear in every room, even during Seek chases.

What else can knock Giggle off besides light?

You can hit it with a Paper Plane, Pocket Mirror, Honey Jar, bombs, and other throwables. You can also crucify it with a Crucifix, but I wouldn’t waste a Crucifix on Giggle.
