hello as a new player I have some questions:

1)the rules say that an evade check is required when a player attemps to leave a space that is occupied by a monster or when he ends his movement in a space occupied with the monster. What about the pass-through a space occupied by a monster?? Is an evade check required there or not?

2)when you want to end your movement in a location with a gate(because you want to enter it) but there is a monster there popped out by the previous Mythos phase, do you have to evade it / fight it? Or the gate swallows you immediately?

3) when a gate has been sealed, do clue tokens appear in the sealed location?

thnx in advance

1) When you are moving through a space you do have to attempt to leave it, so yes, you need to evade the monsters. And if you fail the evade, your move ends, and you have to face them (horror + fight)

2) You have to deal with the monster first (evade / fight)

3) Yes they do!

Welcome to the horror!

The first thing that happens when you fail an evade check is the monster deals its combat damage:

"If the investigator fails to evade a monster, the monster
immediately deals its combat damage to him (see
“Combat” on page 14) and he immediately enters combat
with it."

For teaching purposes, I say the monster "stabs/claws/beaks" your investigator in the back. Then you must face it normally. If you survive each step you may then attempt to hunker down in the same spot and evade again.
