Sara defeats Jareth and is brought back to her house, where she finds Toby sleeping. She goes into her bedroom and puts the Labyrinth book into her dresser drawer, with the pictures of her mom. She looks into her mirror and in the reflection Sir Didymus, Hoggle, and Ludo say goodbye to her. Hoggle is the last to appear and she tells him she will need him once in a while in her life. He is glad to hear that so Sara turns around in her chair and most of the creatures from the Labyrinth join her in her room and have a party. Outside Sara's window is the owl and he flies off into the night.

Question: This has always confused me. In the scene with the guards, which one always lies and the other always speaks the truth, Sarah asks which door leads to the castle gate then she figures out the riddle and chooses a door. However, the door she chooses, the supposedly correct choice, doesn't lead her to the entrance instead it's a trap. So did she choose the wrong door, or just the wrong direction for the hands to take her?
Answer: She did choose the right door...if she had chosen up, she would have very likely come out at the castle, but she chose down.
If you pay attention down was also the correct answer. The Goblin king was angry when he discovered she was down there "She never should have made it this far" or something similar upon finding this out. Had she chosen up she would have ended up back at the beginning.
Answer: Sarah did indeed select the right door and did ask a sensible, albeit confusing question. The reason she fell into the oubliette (and the helping hands) is because as she walked through the door she said "I think I'm getting smarter. This is a piece of cake" - saying "piece of cake" within the Labyrinth to say how easy something is brings bad luck upon those who say it. Sarah said it to Jareth and he upped the stakes (reducing her time). Hoggle said it later (in Goblin City) and then they got surrounded by Goblins.
Answer: To add to that, the other door was supposed to lead her to certain death, and technically the oubliette wasn't exactly certain death.
