A couple have shared some creepy footage of their home after they made a terrifying discovery under the stairs.
Older houses can be pretty spooky at the best of times, what with all the creaking, but imagine living in a Victorian property and discovering there's a whole section of the house that you didn't even know existed?

Well, that's exactly what happened to one couple, who basically discovered a whole new living area under the stairs of their flat.
It might sound great, but the footage is pretty unsettling.
The video was shared on TikTok by @dr_scaryy and literally shows a hole in the staircase leading to several rooms they never knew existed.
"Under the stairs we knocked it through and then you look through the hole and it is just a f*****g staircase," the woman in the footage says.

The door at the bottom of the secret staircase leads to a room - which looks like it hasn't been lived in for a very long time - as well as a series of 'endless tunnels', chambers and small rooms.
It quite literally looks like something out of a horror film, with the couple explaining the rooms had been 'underneath' them the whole time.
"This is all underneath me – I'm not going to be able to sleep," the woman says.

It's not clear whether the previous owners knew about the rooms, with @dr_scaryy explaining it hadn't been mentioned when they bought it.
At one point, the camera pans upwards and the couple can see light from the road above.
Followers were pretty intrigued by the video, with many wondering when the rooms were used last.

Meanwhile, others thought it was pretty standard for a Victorian property.
One wrote: "No it's just a cellar, the apartment is part of a big house that's been divided, the cellars were used for storage and sometimes staff accommodation."
While another said: "That's so cool."
And another person added: "Just make the door secure and start renovating each room under you one at a time until you have a massive secured space you can use, no one needs to know."

And a fourth pointed out: "Its been used relatively recently (the last 40 years) because there's a plastic bread tray in there plus a ratchet strap on the floor."
While a fifth said: "What are they complaining about? It’s extra square footage."
How would you feel if you discovered this?
