I live in an old church and found a secret room untouched for 100 years – it’s hiding something ‘cool as hell’
A CURIOUS man has discovered a hidden room in his home, which used to be a church.
He said the secret space remained untouched for 100 years and could be hiding something.
Steve Digirolamo (@digiflips) showed clips of the discovery in two videos on YouTube.
First, he teamed up with his buddies to set up foam blocks to try and reach the door, which was 20 feet off of the ground.
In another video, Steve brought a ladder to make it a less risky endeavor.
“Today, I’m going back to the secret door that’s 20 feet off the ground in my brand new home,” he said.
“This time we bought a brand new ladder to make things less scary.
“But I’m going to be honest, even with this new ladder it was super scary climbing this high up and trying to get into this door,” he added.
He showed clips of himself climbing up the ladder to reach the mysterious door.
After safely reaching the top of the ladder, Steve rattled the doorknob to get inside.
“After looking around the room, I noticed that there was a string going down into the floor,” he said.
He had a friend follow the string and give it a strong tug to see what it’s for.
“It pulled on this bell and it actually rung,” he said, showing a clip of the old church bell swaying and ringing.
The bell wasn’t Steve’s only find, there was also a discovery attached to the doorknob.
“I also found this key that was stuck in the door,” he said. “I don’t think this key has been touched in 100 years, but after removing it, now I can unlock the secret door.”
The video series drew in many viewers who shared their thoughts on the find.
“What I would do with it is leave it as is. That’s a piece of history and it’s cool as hell,” one wrote.
