"The Hall of Egress" is the twenty-fourth[a] episode of the seventh season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. The episode—which was written and storyboarded by Tom Herpich, from a story by head writer Kent Osborne, Jack Pendarvis, Ashly Burch, and Herpich—debuted on March 5, 2016 on Cartoon Network.
The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, Finn and Jake set out to find a dungeon, but, after the two find it, Finn ends up getting trapped within. In the center of the structure he finds a door that, when he closes his eyes, he is able to pass through. However, every time Finn opens his eyes, he is transported back to being outside the door.
"The Hall of Egress" marked the third time that Herpich had storyboarded an episode by himself (the first instance being the third season episode "Thank You", and the second being the sixth season episode "Walnuts & Rain"). Elements in the episode were inspired by, among other things, songs by M83 and the business practices of P. T. Barnum. Upon its airing, the episode was seen by 1.245 million viewers, and received largely positive reviews from critics. It was later nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Short-format Animation at the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards in 2016.
