This is a really cool idea. I have a few questions... really I'm just thinking aloud.
  1. How many people is "enough?" (I assume it's the GM's call... or whenever the full group enters.)
  2. When the portal is closed, am I understanding correctly that it effectively becomes detached from normal reality. It is like a little pocket dimension that needs the mouth to open to return to the mundane dungeon. Right? That might have implications for knowledge or scrying spells.
  3. If someone were left behind when the mouth shut, would they just see a blank wall too?
  4. If someone does manage to get something into the opening before it shuts, what would be required to pry it open again?

I could easily answer these for myself, but if you had anything in mind, I'd love to hear your take on it.
