David had always wondered why his kitchen floor was colder than the rest of the house. One day, while fixing a leaky faucet, he noticed a loose floorboard and decided to investigate. To his surprise, he found a hidden room under his kitchen that looked like it had been untouched for years.
David's curiosity got the better of him, and he descended the stairs, ready to explore.
David slowly descended the stairs, his heart pounding with every step he took. As he reached the bottom, he shone his light around the room and was amazed by what he saw. The room was small and dusty, filled with old furniture covered in cobwebs. But there was something very odd about this room.
A layer of dust covered the room, well, almost. Because at some spots, the dust was brushed away. At first, David thought mice or rats could’ve done that, but then he started to hear noises coming from upstairs. There was someone in his kitchen! David rushed to the stairs, but it was too late…
David saw a shadowy figure move through his kitchen, and they quickly placed the floorboards back on David’s kitchen floor, trapping him in the dusty dark room underground. This did not look good…
But why was there a secret room underneath David’s kitchen? Who trapped him in there? And will he get out?
David had always felt a strange chill beneath his feet whenever he entered the kitchen of his small cottage. The floors of the other rooms felt warm and comforting, but in the kitchen, his toes were always met with a cold and clammy sensation. But he could never find out why.
For years, he had assumed that it was just a quirk of the old house, but it still bothered him. One day, while washing his dishes, David heard a faint creaking noise coming from the ground. He stopped what he was doing and listened, trying to locate the source of the sound.
It was a soft, rhythmic thumping that seemed to be coming from underneath his feet. He walked around the kitchen, tapping on the floor with his foot, trying to pinpoint where the noise was coming from. As he walked towards the sink, the sound grew louder, and he realized it was coming from the floorboards.
David knelt down and examined the tiles around the sink, searching for any signs of damage or weakness. He quickly felt a wet spot and immediately knew what was going on. His faucet was leaking, and the sound was coming from the water dripping down. There was one problem, though.
David had absolutely no experience in plumbing. So, he called a plumbing service, but they had bad news for him. The soonest they could arrive was in two days. David had no time to wait for two days; he had to fix the leaking sink as soon as possible. Otherwise, his floorboards would be ruined.
So, he decided to fix it on his own. What could go wrong? he thought. But little did he know he was about to stumble upon something he never even dared to think about. He grabbed everything he had and got to work, turning off the water and following the pipes. But he soon stumbled upon a problem.
While he walked around his kitchen, he noticed one problem after another. At first, he realized the waterpipes ran deep down underneath his house. And after that, he noticed a loose floorboard. He stepped onto the board a few times, and it would creak and slightly lift up each time.
He stepped on it a few times to loosen it up a little more and to think about what he should do with it. He was hesitant to open it, as he didn't want to ruin his floors. He bent down and tried to peek under it without having to open it, but that didn't work.
David decided to investigate the loose floorboard further. He knelt down and tried to pry it open with his fingers. But that didn’t seem to work. So, he tried it with a screwdriver. He knelt down and pried the loose board off, only to find that there was something beneath it that wasn't pipes or insulation.
David peered underneath his floorboards and saw a set of stairs leading down into darkness. His heart began to race with excitement and fear as he realized that he had discovered a hidden room under his kitchen. His mind raced with different scenarios as he decided on what to do next.
There had been no information about a hidden room when he bought the house years ago. He had looked at the ground plan before buying the place, and there was nothing like this on there. Otherwise, he would have definitely remembered it. David stared at the stairs and suddenly felt very curious.
After thinking for a few minutes, David grabbed a flashlight and carefully descended the stairs, his curiosity getting the better of him. With every step, it got darker and darker. As he reached the bottom, he shone his light around the pitch-black room and was amazed by what he saw.
