A Guy Crawled Into His Attic For The First Time – And Discovered This Doorway To A Creepy Hideout

Redditor “Mr. Griff” climbs slowly up the ladder. He pushes open the manhole and squeezes his body through, arriving into total darkness. He fumbles for his flashlight... Finds the switch... Click. And as the space lights up, Mr. Griff’s heart drops. He’s just locked eyes with a truly sinister spectacle. There, in his enormous attic, is the unmistakable outline of a doorway. And it seems to lead straight into a horrifying hideout.

Clearly, this isn’t what Mr. Griff was expecting to find in the attic of his new home. The building was originally built as a shop, although you wouldn’t know that to see it now. These days, it looks like any other one-story family house – at least when seen from the outside. So it must have come as quite a shock for Mr. Griff when he first uncovered the structure’s sinister secret.

Yes, there’s definitely more to Mr. Griff’s home than first meets the eye. It had once been used as a church, in fact. And when it was converted from a store, the builders extended the building out some. They’d sealed in the attic with insulation batts, and it’s not likely that anyone ever went up there. So what Mr. Griff discovered lurking above the rafters may well have been in place since the church had rung out with hymns. Creepy.

Mr. Griff did not share where his home was – although it was somewhere in America. And some who saw his post on Reddit felt the attic could have come straight out of a horror movie. It definitely put the chills up Mr. Griff’s spine when he saw what was hidden in the upper part of his home. That’s for sure.

In some respects, what Mr. Griff discovered was very much what you’d expect in an attic. “Lots of dirt,” he told fellow Redditors. Plus there was plenty of rubbish, including an old tire and a hat. But there were things you just wouldn’t expect to find in an attic. And we don’t just mean the spiders!
