There was only one rule: don’t open the door. I was freshly into my twenties and the little house on top of the hill was calling me. The big kitchen with the amazing counter space, the nice fenced in yard, and the beautiful wrap around porch were the main selling points for me. I recently came into money from a loss in the family and I had just the right amount for the asking price, lucky for me I was the only one who placed an offer! After signing all the proper paperwork, I met with the sellers at the home for the keys. As they showed me around, they made it VERY clear if I heard strange noises from the extra room in the basement, not to open the door.
