I’ve said forever...that the inside is a honeycomb. They have to do a better job of looking at the outside...cuz the keying is pretty noticeable.
IIRC didn’t HP Lovecraft ghost-write a story by Harry Houdini on the subject?
Yes..................

"The tomb is being sealed, Your Majesty."
Anyone remember that?
I was speaking with a guy yesterday who just got back from Egypt and visiting the pyramids - he kept saying over and over โthose things had to have been built by aliensโ - he was in total awe of what he saw.
Unused break room.
It is amazing what one can accomplish with an endless supply of disposable slaves.
But also... It was an employment program according to some studies.
Looters robbed the structure of its ancient treasures thousands of years ago

No one looted it, as it remained sealed until around 800AD when Arabs muslims tunneled into it to loot it, but found nothing.
Nothing.
It was empty.
Was Geraldo there?
Yeah, that was a pretty good movie.
English actor Jack Hawkins played the architect of the tomb. Stones slid into place when vials filled with sand were broken by the priests, sealing themselves in the tomb with the greedy woman.
Well it depends on what sources you read. There are some fascinating stories from early Arab writers who mentioned strange things like lights that never extinguished. Fun to read.
What is known for certain in the historical record is a little more strange than is popularly known. Nobody was precisely sure where the actual entrance was.
That’s why they blew a hole in the side. That’s still the entrance used by visitors today.
The limestone casing stones were cut, polished, and installed with “optical” levels of precision, as scientists have described other granite features of ancient Egypt.
The original “door” to the pyramid swung open, and up, from the inside. When it was closed, it was invisible or impossible to detect from the outside. That’s amazing when you stop and think about it. Why did they do that?

No one knows (beyond conjecture and assumptions) who, how, or why the Giza monuments were built. All of Egyptian Old Kingdom history is in turmoil, as all of the dating is way off from when they were supposedly built by 500 years or more - according to optical thermolucient dating of supposed youngest Pyramid of Menkaure [the small one].
Further, the monuments were planned and build as one grand geometric structure, not as separate monuments, and none were used as tombs. In fact, the tombs of the supposed builder pharaohs have never been found.
There is every likely hood that the First Dynasty kings found them and did not build them. Rather they took them as their own as happened repeatedly thorough out Egyptian history, repurposing them to suit their needs - as the later muslims stripped the monuments of their casing stones to make buildings in Cairo.
One thing is known about the time of the Pharaohs - the workmen at Giza where NOT slaves and where well cared for, fed, housed and had medical attention. It was a well paying job, with prestige. They were likely building all the other temples and mastabas found across the plateau.

You have any linkable sources or books? Sounds interesting.
However, the version I related is the generally acceptable historical one.
“Lights that never went out” could have something to do with Chris Dunn’s analysis that they were used to generate some sort of electrical power, which was ended when some one used the wrong ingredients and caused an explosion in the ‘Kings’ Chamber’.
