Creepy Mystery: This is a case for Encyclopedia Brown

[OGShaman]

Anyone seen this story on the net? I'm not even sure if it's a hoax or not, and I haven't found anything to prove or disprove it. Creepy if true though.

The story was posted by a (supposed) 15 year old kid. He and his brother were in his parent's room when he pushed his brother into a bookshelf, and a door that they did not know was there opened.

Behind the door is a staircase that descends down to a crawlspace where they find evidence that someone had been living in their walls along with some rather strange items.

My first thought was why is noone growing herb down there? But that's just me (and probably most of you).

Nobody seemed interested so I didn't mention it, but I did find a follow up to the story last night where the kid said they had only lived in the house for a year when they found the secret passageway. He said the cops thought that it was probably a kid that had been in there; perhaps a friend of the family that lived there before, and knew about the passageway. But they sold the house, and moved anyway having been so creeped out by it.

I saw a story where a old lady kept smelling cigarette smoke for months in her house, had a handy man check it out and found some guy living in her crawl space and he cut into her A'C duct.

So a lot of people wanted me to do a follow up on what happened. Here it is, but I don't really have anything to put pictures of. I just put this one in for proof. Anyways, here's what happened. I left to go to a friends house, while the police investigated my house. They found nobody there. They have told us that the person was only living there temporarily, which doesn't make that much sense to me. But apparently, he would come in for periods of time, then leave for a while. They determined this because of the lack of supplies, and forensicy thingies, i'm not a cop. The police also said that they are going to keep a city wide search for whoever was living here, although they don't think they will find him. They sent in DNA to the lab, but the test will likely come back with no matches in a few weeks.There were no other entrances to the secret passage, therefore the person would have been using my parents' bedroom to access it. The walls are incredibly soundproof, which is probably how we didn't even notice. We were cleared to move back in today, but obviously we're not staying, just as a precaution in case he or she comes back. My parents said that I was never allowed back in there again, and believe me, I tried. They actually went inside and boarded the whole place up. The police took all his stuff away, so I can't include any pictures of that.

Below, I'm going to include some answers to questions people asked, because obviously, there is a lot of skepticism towards this. I would be skeptical too.

Q: Where are his other belongings?
A: He or she was only living there periodically, apparently. Their clothes were placed in the corner, which I failed to see in the dark. The police found them later.

Q: Why does that banana look fresh?
A: I was eating it when I went down. lol. It was dark, and the only way I could see was through a dim light from my phone. We couldn't find a flashlight. We saw the blankets, but it was too dark to see what they were. I tossed the banana at them, and then when nothing happened, I took a picture with the flash to see what it was. When editing, I remembered it could be for scale.

Q: How did you not notice it, or see it in the blueprints?
A: Yeah, I can't really explain that one. I asked my mom, and she said, "I guess we fucked up." I honestly can't really explain it.. Um, and as for how we didn't notice it, I guess it was really cleverly hidden under the stairs.

Q: You write like you are 25, but have halloween candy?
A: I'm 15. And apparently a good writer.

Q: Are you okay?
A: Yes, I am perfectly fine, just a little creeped out.

Q: Where did the poo go?
A: I don't want to think about it
