Do you have to keep rolling to leave a room like the Graveyard or Junk Room, and can you stay put after failing?
The one-roll rule has several supporting posts, but staying put after a failed roll is disputed between editions.

No. You roll once when you leave, and the roll decides only whether you take damage, not whether you may move on. Each hero who leaves such a room rolls, while the traitor and monsters are not affected. Whether you can stay put and retry after failing is contested: some posts cite a first-edition FAQ or errata that allows it, while the second-edition text is silent.
