Ehwaz is an unlockable rune.
Effects
- Creates a trapdoor leading to the next floor. Has an estimated 1/12 (8%) chance to create a trapdoor leading to a
Crawl Space instead.
Guaranteed to create a trap door to a
Crawl Space if used on floor tiles containing certain patterns. Will not create trapdoors if used on the end floor of a challenge.
Notes
Only one trapdoor to the Crawl Space can be made per floor by using Ehwaz on a floor element, as all subsequent uses will guarantee a trapdoor to the next floor.
- If used in
Womb II /
Utero II /
Scarred Womb II, the trapdoor will always lead to
Sheol.
- In hostile rooms, a trapdoor leading to the next floor will always be open, whereas a trapdoor leading to a crawl space will be closed until the room is cleared.
- However, in rooms that become hostile (
Challenge Room,
Boss Rush), the trapdoor to a crawl space will remain open even when the room is hostile.
- However, in rooms that become hostile (
- Using Ehwaz whilst Isaac is over a rock will destroy it.

We Need To Go Deeper!. See the item page for further effect notes.
Strategy
