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.

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

Attic space with hidden room accessed by ladder, showing plywood walls and a small bed, a disturbing home discovery after moving in.
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)

#18 Renovating A Bathroom In The House We Just Bought, Found A Peephole

Shadow of a dog figure on a wall possibly revealing disturbing things people discovered after moving into a new home.
Was behind the wall, looking for a place to route a wire, when I saw light and thought I was in luck.  Hey, a ready-drilled hole!  Unfortunately, it wasn't behind the closet, where I'd needed it to be.   It allows a prime view of the shower stall.  
 
This is from the room that was the previous owner's workroom, into the guest bath.
 
I am officially creeped out.
