DOORS Taking Candy From Abe is the secret Halloween 2026 badge earned by collecting a cumulative 10,000 candy from Sir Abe’s Candy Vault. You don’t have to earn the entire amount in one 20-minute run. However, reports say candy spent on event item skins does not count towards the tracked total, so save your shopping for after the badge unlocks.
The key to earning it is finishing complete runs, not chasing every sweet and dying to the timer. Here are the exact requirement wording, the safest farming routine and what to check when your shop balance doesn’t seem to match the achievement.
DOORS Taking Candy From Abe: exact 10,000 requirement
The in-game achievement requirement is “Rack up 10 thousand total Candy from Sir Abe’s Candy Vault.” The public Roblox badge description is only “-aby! Eh? Kinda worked!”, which explains why players looking at the public badge page don’t see a number. The 10,000 target is corroborated by multiple current badge records and the event wiki.
The wording means the DOORS Taking Candy From Abe requirement is cumulative, across runs, and not a single-session 10,000-candy haul. The wiki says purchases of item skins are excluded from the relevant collected amount. That doesn’t mean an R.I.P. machine purchase wipes out earlier progress. Save the bulk of your candy until the badge appears. For safety, hold off on skin purchases and unnecessary paid modifiers while grinding.
Fastest safe DOORS Taking Candy From Abe farming route
Host The Candy Vault floor in DOORS and start in Sir Abe’s Estate. Search its five available routes, checking loose candy, drawers and cases. The 20-minute timer only begins when the vault door opens, so use the Estate to gather keys and useful items without racing the descent clock. Jewelry Keys open display cases, while Skeleton Keys are useful later near Door 50.
Open the vault by clearing the wheel’s three timing stages. Abe then begins his pursuit during the 50-door stairwell descent. Collect easy candy near the main path, use a glowing cauldron to bank sweets without eating them, and keep progressing. Escaping reportedly triples the candy reward, while playing with friends offers a reported 1.25× bonus. A successful escape is the strongest repeatable foundation for DOORS Taking Candy From Abe progress.
With friends, divide the jobs. One person keeps track of Abe, another spots the next exit and the rest gather convenient candy. Skip long detours when the clock runs low. Our Candy Vault farming guide covers the Estate searches, and our walkthrough covers opening the wheel.
Use cauldrons and Door 50 without throwing away a run
Some candy has negative effects when eaten. Depositing it into a glowing cauldron credits its value without making you consume it. Use cauldrons during the descent when convenient and make a final deposit before leaving the vault.
At Door 50, optional locked compartments can be opened with Skeleton Keys. They can yield extra candy, and experienced players sometimes duplicate a key using Portrait’s Mirror to open more. That route is useful only when you still have enough time to reach the final exit. The DOORS Taking Candy From Abe badge is about earning candy across runs; a failed giant haul isn’t better than a smaller successful escape.
How many runs for DOORS Taking Candy From Abe?
No universal count exists because each result depends on what you find and whether you survive. At an illustrative 500 credited candy per run, it would take about 20 successful runs to reach 10,000; at 1,000 it would take about ten. Those are examples, not measured guaranteed payouts.
Focus on reliable runs and compare your result after each escape. The final corridor matters: getting as far as Door 50 does not count as escaping until you actually leave through the exit. The DOORS Taking Candy From Abe badge is distinct from Sweet Deceit, the separate achievement for clearing the Vault. You can earn Sweet Deceit much sooner without completing the 10,000-candy grind.
Why isn’t DOORS Taking Candy From Abe unlocking?
Check whether your run ended in a successful escape and whether its candy reached your event total. If you bought Halloween item skins, those purchases are specifically excluded in current community badge guidance. Your shop balance can fall after purchases, so check the badge tracker separately from the currency available in the shop.
If the counter appears stuck after earning enough, rejoin an updated DOORS server, check the badge menu and keep a screenshot of the escape result. If the badge still hasn’t appeared, preserve a screenshot of your latest result and check again on a current server. Save candy instead of trying random purchases as a fix.
