In a video posted on her @goldenberryx account, she captured the moment they removed the drywall to unveil the unexpected wooden door.

She commented: “We opened the drywall and found a door no one knew existed. Houses from the 1930s really have their surprises.”

The clip featured the sound of a woman laughing maniacally, and the woman included the text: “The sound of the previous owners’ laughter once the sale was finalized.”

The couple was unaware of what awaited them behind the door but cautiously began to dismantle the wall to uncover the mystery.

Many viewers shared their unease regarding the discovery, with the video accumulating nine million views.

One viewer remarked: “I’ve seen this movie. Seal that back up immediately, call a priest, and get some cats.”

Another commented: “Please provide an update… we need to see what’s behind the door……”

However, a third joked: “I’m more perplexed by the fact that you have paper walls.”

Although they admitted they were “scared silly,” they were pleasantly surprised by what they found behind the door and posted a follow-up video.

The woman continued: “Everyone expected a haunted room… it’s just a bathroom, friends.

“Honestly shocked to discover a whole second bathroom back there because the previous owners literally plastered over the old door.

“So no, the house isn’t haunted… just burdened with questionable carpentry.”

While the woman appeared relieved, not everyone shared her calm demeanor.

One commenter stated: “There must have been a reason the bathroom was covered. I pray against wickedness in Jesus' name.”

A second added: “Looks like an unpermitted addition that they had to ‘undo’ very quickly.”

This isn’t the first instance of someone encountering a secret room or door in their home, leaving them frightened.
