...in the basement of the 130 yr old Victorian I close on in 2 weeks. Current owner didnt even know it was there so I'm pretty excited to find out wtf is in that room.
He also said he's 70% sure there's another hidden room on the main floor but has no idea how to get in there. Theres a roughly 6x6 area that he can see into through a gap in the staircase and theres definitely walls there.

Fuck I cannot wait to tear into this thing!

Pics.

And ya, I found a few odd things in this old house as well.
What I don't find is, an overabundance of insulation. >_>

DUDE if you have older wiring (I cant remember what he called it) do not install insulation. Apparently those old style wires heat up and can catch insulation on fire. Glad he told me that lol.

Hopefully I'll have pics soon, the place is 200m from me so I just saw it once in person but he made a disc with 295 pics I should get soon

I hope the home isn't a registered historical home, you don't want to buy one of those (assuming you live in the US).

How awesome would it be if there was some legit bookcase type switch for a hidden door?

In this case, the staircase probably didn't exist initially.

I am pretty sure it was rewired, as the house was moved a while ago.
But ya, even in the walls where there is no power it is still completely uninsulated.
By brother punched a whole in the wall upstairs...being the darling he was, and you can the the clapboard of the outer wall.

Oh but if it's just a random ass room, I have an idea for it if you decide to sell later down the road:

Buy a bunch of those life sized Halloween skeletons and paint them up to look more authentic and chain them to the walls and draw a pentagram in the middle in blood red paint.

Then seal the door again

OP, go watch something like The Haunting of Hill House and learn why opening a sealed door like that, especially in 2020, probably isn't a good idea. >.>

Somewhere in the Mid West (dont want to get too specific with the crazies here). That's totally possible, the inspector thought it could be a pantry or storeroom. There is a literal coal room down there so who knows

Unsealing a century-old strain of hantavirus would certainly be a capstone for 2020.

"I'm fucking haunted" is just uninsulated wiring fucking with your vestigial magnetoreception. Possibly also mildly hallucinogenic mold spores.

I have a sealed door in my basement that's 160 years old. It was just an old door that went to the outside before they re-graded for a driveway. If you were to open it you would just see dirt.
