The Master Key is one of several keys in Granny. It is used to open the Main Door, after all the locks are removed from it. It has existed in the game, starting from its release in Version 1.0.
Appearance
The Master Key has a hexagonal, grimy red, handle tinged with rust due to its old age, with a rectangular keyhole. Its blade has four jagged, triangular teeth made of gray metal, with slight scratch marks on it.
Mechanics
Usage
The Master Key's main use is unlocking the Main Door. This can only be done if all the locks have been taken off, and it is more specifically used on the Main Door Lock. Contrary to Master Key's name, it can't open any other locks in the game.
Spawning
The Master Key spawns in one of listed below locations, depending on game's current preset;
- Inside of the Car Trunk
- Inside of the Melon
- Inside of the Cogwheel Safe
- Inside of the Pipe Room's Screwdriver Safe
- Inside of the Crow Cage
Trivia
- Despite the Master Key's name, it can only unlock the Main Door.
- This is misleading, as the name "Master Key" implies that it can be used on every lock in the game.
- The Master Key used to have different spawn locations as the presets change with every major update:
- Inside the Basement Safe, Study's Wardrobe, inside the SA Bottom Floor Screwdriver Safe, in the Bathroom's right sink, behind the Jail Ventilator, and inside of the Microwave.
- The Master Key, Padlock Key, Safe Key, and Playhouse Key are the only items that make a jingling sound when picked up.
- As of now, the Master Key, Padlock Key, Hammer, Rusty Padlock Key, and the Wooden Stick are the items in the game that can never be found in the open.
- The house at one point was so empty, the Master Key used to spawn in the Cogwheel Safe three times, more specifically on presets #3,4 and 5.
- The Master Key is referred as "House Key" in the game files.
