Stare's Stairs is an area accessible through the Jarred Rose, with its main section exclusively accessible from the Monochrome Building.
Features
Stare’s Stairs is a red narrow passage in a black void complete with a long, descending stairway to the right. Red eyes in the sky stare at the player, some of them having black scribbles in place of pupils. If the player walks to the left, seemingly going outside of this passage, they’ll find a color-changing puddle leading to the R-Maze.
Walking down the stairs and going all the way to the right will lead to a white doorway; the first time the player enters through the doorway, a sitting Muma will spawn at the end of the hallway. Interacting with her will cause the player to seemingly kill her, giving them the Ectoplasm memory. Once this is done, this Muma will no longer be seen upon subsequent entrances.
After gaining the Ectoplasm memory, the player can walk through the hallway to go to the Mushroom Cathedral. Alternatively, the player can walk all the way to the back without going through the far doorway, and walk back to the beginning to find the entrance to the Jarred Rose. Walking back to the far right of the hallway at this point will lead to a red doorway leading to the Red Building.

Trivia
- This world functioned and looked completely different in it's initial release of v7.0.
- The world's path had the gray tileset of the Memory Room instead.
- The music did not loop properly, pausing for a moment after the second measure.
- The world looped slightly incorrectly as well, with one of the red eyes being visible from the starting point in the bottom left corner.
- The staircase down was much shorter.
- To get to the world you had to enter a black heart door (which are now used for Empties) in Lamp World.
- Leaving the room with the Muma clone in it would take you back to the Memory Room.
- You obtained what now is the Memory Room's empty from the room at the bottom of the staircase.
- In v12.0 the gray tileset was replaced with current red one, in addition to the staircase being greatly lengthened and the room at the bottom being changed to look more like the current version.
- In v13.0 when the teleporter to R-Maze was added there was a small trail of dots hinting towards its existence. This was removed in v30.0 likely because it may have distracted players from going the main path down the staircase and also in an attempt to make it more hidden.
- Between v30.0 and v30.5, the mossy door that would take you to Jarred Rose took you to Overgrown Rust instead. This was changed in v31.1 when Jarred Rose was added to the game.
- Between v31.1 and v32.2, the door that takes you to Mushroom Cathedral instead takes you to the Yin part of Yin Yang Lake. This was changed in v33.2 when Mushroom Cathedral was added to the game.
