Hawk says that you meet your "shadow self" there.  Not necessarily evil,

though the themes in the show connect dark with evil.  I think that dark
(or evil) being something to be purged is a bit too simplistic.  Hawk
also calls the "shadow self" the "dweller on the threshold".  Threshold
of what?  You obviously have to deal with the doppleganger before
getting through the doorway - i have assumed that the doorway to the 
White lodge is the goal.  Maybe not.  In psychological sense it probably
has something to do with being able to contain your "evil" side
(reminiscent of Star Trek's episode when Captain Kirk is split into his
aggressive and compassionate parts...)
