Knock Knock sessions show a skull TRAPS counter, pedestal rooms with Glue and Bear Trap displays, and hotbars that stack Flashlight with Glue, BearTrap, Light, and ElectricWire or Bomb wire. This page answers which traps to buy first, where to place them before the knock, and how to pivot when a killer ignores floor pads.

Trap roster seen in shop and hotbar
| Trap | Observed role | Watch-out |
|---|---|---|
| Glue | Floor pad that sticks or slows killers that walk over it | Price climbs with spam; some killers ignore it |
| Bear Trap | Snap trap on pedestals and hotbar; stops glue-immune threats | Consumes on trigger — restock between rounds |
| Bomb / Electric wire | Trip-wire style; explodes killers on touch in callouts | Buy after glue and bear trap basics |
| Light | Pedestal utility priced near $30 in one shop frame | Helps dark halls; not a kill tool |
Place traps before the knock
Buy at TRAPS
Open the skull TRAPS counter or pedestal room. Grab glue first, then a bear trap when cash allows.
Seed the exit lane
Drop glue on the path away from the knockable door before you touch it. Add wire across the same hall if you already own it.
Knock and kite
Leave immediately when the Run announce appears. Lead the killer through the prepared pads instead of open yards.
Restock
After the round timer, replace consumed bear traps and refill glue before the next ditch.
Spend priority across a 25-ditch run
First cash after ditch 1–3
Buy glue and place it on the door exit
You need a walkable pad before the next knock; wire cosmetics can wait
Killer walked past glue
Buy bear trap next shop and stop double-buying glue
Glue immunity wastes cash; bear traps still stop Chef-style threats in footage

Do monster house roblox traps work on every killer?
No. Sessions show Chef ignoring glue while bear traps still stop him. Keep a non-glue option every shop visit once cash allows.
Should I buy bomb wire before glue?
Footage treats bomb or electric wire as a secondary spend after glue and bear trap basics. Wire callouts say it explodes killers on touch, but early money usually belongs on lane glue first.
