Imagine the sheer joy of the day you finally move into your new, dream home. And the cold-shower realization that you may have gotten yourself a haunted house. Okay, let’s not jump to conclusions before scrolling below through this collection of some of the creepiest, weirdest and most unexpected findings people came across upon arrival.

From an eerie-looking old baby stroller found in the far corner of the attic to a spine-chilling monkey doll that looks like straight from a horror movie, and a hidden bunker you had no clue existed, it makes you wonder how little homeowners truly know about the places they are ready to call home.

Arm yourself with a bucket of popcorn, and better bring that duvet to hide under because it’s about to get chilly.

Found A Creepy Room In A Hidden Crawl Space In My New Home

A crawl space behind the door contained a safe, briefcase (with money of various countries and origins, silver ingots, jewelry), a stack of mysterious videotapes (one of them was labeled "No no no no"), and a note that said “save yourself”

While some of the creepy discoveries in this list may indeed look unsettling and raise some doubts whether the place you just moved into is really fine, some people encounter way more serious issues. Think of hard-to-explain sightings, sounds, or smells… How do you know your new home is not haunted?

Well, to find out, Bored Panda reached out to Greg Newkirk, full-time paranormal investigator and founder of the world’s only mobile museum of the unexplained. For the last two and a half decades, Newkirk has been tracking down and investigating cases of high strangeness ranging from flying saucer crashes to cursed artifacts and everything in between.

Remember what the telephone told Woody in Toy Story 3. "Your REAL problem's the monkey. The Monkey's the eye in the sky. He sees everything... classrooms, hallways, even the playground. You can unlock doors, sneak past guards, climb the wall, but if you don't take out that monkey you ain't going nowhere. You want to get out of here... GET RID OF THAT MONKEY!"

My creepy uncle had one of these. They were popular in bars and pubs long ago, and cute to get for yourself if you had a bar at home. It'd wind up and clap the symbols. Some had eyes that would light up and flash red, and even more some had a thing inside which would send smoke out its ears. All at the same time. It terrified me, and to this day dolls and clowns freak the living H3ll out of me. I blame the start of it all on this thing

Love the lyrics (not the pollution) - and with a mix of South African/NZ accent it even rhymes! I believe it is some old Wiccan wisdom. Set things free with fire and smoke to let go and have it remanifast - set things on fire and throw the remains/ashes into running water (river), they won't return to you. However: your translation is great!

Just Rented A New Place. Previous Tenant Left The Wall Mirror - And A Dirty Secret

scratchamaballs Report

“If you just moved into a house and it doesn't feel quite right, remember that anything but a brand new home has spent years soaking up the experiences, actions, and emotions of the people who have lived inside it,” Newkirk explained. It turns out that many paranormal researchers—including himself—believe that intense emotional states can create some kind of lingering bond with a location, which most people can pick up on unconsciously, the investigator explained.

ADVERTISEMENT

“My advice, as silly as it might sound, is to talk to your new home, introduce yourself, explain why you're there and that you plan to care for the space. This kind of introduction can make a big difference, because even if you don't believe in ghosts or the paranormal, it can act as a kind of positive affirmation that will help you settle in.”

There's A Room In The Attic Where I Just Moved. Pretty Sure Nothing Good Happened Here

There are no neighbors near enough to hear someone yelling if they were in here... 
Hard to tell, but the door is only 4 feet tall and 1.5 feet across (lamp for scale). It's got a light built into it and is painted light green. Metal grate on inside and outside of the door. Ceiling at its highest is a little over 4 feet. I'm hunched down to take these pics.
 
This is a creepy room upstairs at the far end of the attic at the house I just moved into. This house is overall about 60 years old, and apparently, the previous owner was the head of a church (don't know if that means priest or what)

If you're looking for signs that your new home might be haunted, Newkirk said that you won't have to look too hard. “In my experience, hauntings in residential homes exist primarily to draw the residents' attention to something—whatever is causing the haunting *wants* you to see, hear, or feel it.”

Moreover, “common experiences in haunted homes range from the subtle feeling of being watched all the way up to visual manifestations of what we'd call ghosts. I've found that the longer you go without acknowledging these kinds of anomalies, the more pronounced they'll get until they're basically demanding your attention,” he explained.

jkmayne Report

If you're worried that you might be moving into a haunted house, the professional investigator urges you to choose curiosity instead of fear. “Parapsychologists have long believed that there is a strong link between the unconscious mind and ghostly experiences, so when it comes to hauntings, consider that maybe it's *you* with the 'unfinished business,' and not the ghost.”

However, “if you remain open to the experience and explore the possibility that a haunting may very well be a product of your own powerful subconscious attempting to communicate important information, you'll find that these experiences are far less scary than they are enlightening. Sure, maybe your ghost is the lingering construct of a dead person, but those are easy to deal with—they just want to talk,” Newkirk explained.

The professional investigator reminded us that “if you are seeing things, hearing things, or feeling things that are scary—especially if they're instructing you to do things that are out of character—it's always a good idea to speak with a medical professional before calling in a ghost hunter.” He concluded that “you'd be surprised how many paranormal experiences are cleared up with a visit with a doctor!”

This is from the room that was the previous owner's workroom, into the guest bath.

Man Finds A Secret Room In His New House That Contains Tons Of Ammunition, Guns, And Grenades

Man Finds A Secret Room In His New House That Contains Tons Of Ammunition, Guns, And Grenades

Just moved into my first house about 2 weeks ago. Just starting to get settled in. Bought the house for a very cheap price. The previous owner was very old and passed away. The house is very old, but for the price, it was perfect for a first house.
 
When I first toured the house the basement was way worse than it is now. The previous owner hadn't moved anything out yet. The basement was pretty full with junk. They cleaned most of the stuff in the basement out, so I had to clear some stuff out.  But here it is now with some stuff that I don't really need and will probably get rid of soon.
 
While sorting things out in the basement I noticed this sheet of plywood that oddly fit in. I have had the house for 2 weeks and never noticed it. I decided that I didn't want to keep it down there so I tried to move it. It is pinched pretty hard against the stairs so it was pretty hard to get out.
 
When I finally got it to move I noticed there was something behind. At this point is when I got my phone and started taking pictures

I rented this cool house in the hills of a Los Angeles suburb and there is a lot of DIY stonework on the property - little walls, an archway, steps and this dungeon built into the hill right behind the house. The history I've gathered is that a stonemason lived here for decades until he passed away from old age in the 90s, when the current owner purchased the property and began renting it. No one I've talked to knows what the dungeon was used for

Couldn't help but get creepy vibes from it.
Sorry, I couldn't fit it all in originally: "....to come back to our small house, I love it and I love to share it with you. Thanks a lot. Love You. Silvia"
