He should have kept quiet about it. That could come in handy.

Someone painted over the sign that read, “Whatever you do, don’t open the tunnel and let the ghost out.”

At the very least his man cave just became a she-shed.

Now if revenuers can squeeze their piece out...

I have a recurring dream where I will be walking in my house and discover a room or basement that I have never seen before.

“What was barely readable was the year 1964, this along with the other pieces of evidence fitted, meaning the cellar had been blocked up for over 50 years.”

Conversation back in 1964:

“Okay, we’ll buy the house but you have to clean up the basement.”

“Well - how about I knock off $1,000 and you clean it?”

“Deal!”

Conversation in 2019:

“Edward - before we put the house up for sale you really should take care of that mess in the basement. You’ve been talking about it for 50 years now!”

“Yah, okay. Nag, nag, nag, - I’ll take care of it!”

I have the same recurring dream! Sometimes down in the basement, or up in the attic. Once discovered we had a huge screened in porch on the back. (”Hmm, I could put up some walls...”)

“I was pleased to note that the stone arched ceiling was in great condition and the expanse measured a healthy 5m deep, 3m high, and 3m wide."

If there was a cask of amontillado in there or a coat-of-arms with "A huge human foot d'or, in a field azure; the foot crushes a serpent rampant whose fangs are imbedded in the heel" don't look any more, and just brick it back up.

I’ve had dreams like that, too.. Not just a room.. Sometimes an entire wing with many Huge rooms. Fun dreams!
