For discussion of everything rum and uncanny, from cryptozoology (mysterious or out-of-place animals), UFOs, high strangeness, etc. Following in the footsteps of Charles Fort and all those inspired by him, like the field of anomalistics.

As this community is on Feddit.uk it takes a British approach to things but it needn't be restricted to the UK - if it's weird and unusual it probably has a home here.

With the age of the home has come its intriguing qualities, one of those being a series of bricked up doorways believed to lead to tunnels in the cellar of the house, as well as the c[e]ll bars in the cellar.

Another is the fact the house may be haunted. She added: "My house is haunted but not in the Airbnb because that's an extension.

"It's in our cellar, we catch them mimicking our names and the dogs growl at the cellar and won't go down.

"It doesn't happen that often. The last time it happened I was in the kitchen, I heard my husband shout Dee and I turned and he wasn't there he was in the garden.

"Things go missing and come back when we asked for it. It's a really fun house to live in."

It is a rather unsubtle plug for their Airbnb (which has no relevance to the story) but they do have cell bars and bricked up tunnels in their cellar, which is a bit spooky.

It's possible they have smugglers tunnels, especially given their proximity to the beach - there are quite intriguing ones in the area, like the tunnels connecting the Baltic Fleet to the Docks and, perhaps most relevantly, are 200 year old tunnels in New Brighton, also said to be haunted.

The house is haunted.. oh, no, the Airbnb isn't haunted! Make sure you mention that it isn't haunted, it might put potential guests off.

Hi, this interesting thing happened that I am totally up for talking about but half the article has to be about my business.
