It has been shown possible to achieve secret #4 via obscure game mechanics, by luring a [[pain elemental]] to the location and allowing the door to try to close onto the player's head as the pain elemental attempts to spawn a [[lost soul]].

When saved games are allowed (which is not the case for any category of demo recordings), it is also possible to obtain this secret by saving the game and reloading while standing on the teleport pad with the player's midpoint in the secret sector.
