A woman has been issued with a stark warning after making an eerie discovery in the 'creepy' basement of a 200-year-old house.
While old buildings are often a stunning type of architecture, they can sometimes be filed with eerie discoveries from the past.
TikTok user Mystee (@mysteeipong) took to the video-sharing platform to document the moment she and her husband found a hidden area with their New York home. Watch what they found below:

The TikToker detailed what she uncovered in a series of videos, with her suspicions coming to fruition after she 'noticed there was a leak' with 'water backing up' from a random section in the basement.
Mystee's husband, Ken, decided to join in with the fun in the basement, as the pair began to unearth the 'interesting history' behind what was found.
The social media influencer told her followers that Ken and his family 'has some experience with very creepy stuff' that she insisted would help.
In the viral video uploaded last week, Mystee - who is 'super interested in the history' - revealed her rather strange findings.
It entails a closed-up door in her basement, which leads to a room.
"You can even see a doorway around it," she said in the TikTok video.
Despite their apparent experience in the area, the couple did not exactly have the tools to deal with such a situation.
"Luckily they are cinder blocks so they are hollow on the inside, we got through the first part but we have yet to get through the second part," she said.
"The reason why we haven't been able to get through is because this room is filled with rocks."
Mystee decided to dig for answers and she quickly found out the room in her home may have been previously linked to a tunnel.
"I didn't know that my house had ties to the underground railroad," she said, adding: "We looked up Clarkson and sure enough, eight minutes away there is a station."
Viewers have flocked to the comments section of the TikTok video, with many spooked by the footage.
"I have never been so creeped out and invested at the same time," one person wrote.
"Am I the only one that thinks that room is sealed off for a reason?" a second added.
While a third remarked: "Keep the sage burning, there's no telling what will be released from there."
What would you do in this situation?
