A young couple and their 2-year-old purchased a 5- bedroom home that was in foreclosure for a steal. When they started to do renovations, they found a passageway behind a bookshelf that led to a secret room. Inside, there was a note that said: “You Found It! Hello. If you’re reading this, then you found the secret room. I owned this house for a short while, and it was discovered to have a serious mold problem. One that actually made my children very sick to the point that we had to move out.”

Apparently the previous owner had been trying to warn the realtor, the local authorities and anyone who’d listen, and he was shut down so the house could sell.
