He found a secret vault in his house and surprised by revealing who helped him find it

In the southern part of the United Kingdom, the former mining town of Camborne He is experiencing a real revolution due to the discovery made by one of his neighbors. She was at home that time Rupert Ellis purchased a few years ago, where a series of events difficult to explain led him to find, inside one of the walls of the property, a secret vault.

The plot dates back to the end of the 18th century when this town, which today has just 20 thousand inhabitants, became the richest mining area in the world thanks to the exploitation of tin and copper. Of all this today only a few ruins and some old machinery remain which recall the golden years in which money and work overflowed among its inhabitants.

Today the reality is completely different, although for Rupert Ellis there’s a message from Camborne’s ancestors behind their unusual discovery inside your home. “It’s a bit crazy, but I suspect the house is haunted,” he told local media Cornwall Live, adding that he believes spirits guided him to find that crypt.

“I am convinced that this House chose me and not the other way around. “There were really disturbing coincidences!” insisted the man who owns a coffee shop and describes himself as a history fanatic. “Because of my love of history and my expertise in archaeology, I am obsessed with the process of reassembling the original features in the home and discovering hidden treasures.

As he described, a series of strange events occurred that aroused his suspicions. They were before noises, then he noticed that the lights in his house were turning on and off and, finally, a fact that keeps repeating itself: he wakes up in the middle of the night at certain times.

“About three or four months ago I had an accident with the lights on and off.. “It’s not the first time things like this have happened at home, there are certain things I think about, I can’t explain them,” she said.

“When I moved I listened at night all kinds of shots. I also wake up at the same time every night. I’m not the only witness to this: A friend stayed here and claimed to have heard footsteps. “There were some unexplained scenarios.”

“You can chalk things up to coincidence, but what happens is that there are already too many coincidences here. “So I think I have a responsibility to get the house back to the way it obviously wants to be again,” he said.

What is Rupert referring to? The man didn’t know it but The house was built by the Basset familyone of the richest in those golden times of the city, around 1832. And at the time the building was used as the headquarters of the Tehidy Minerals Company, one of the most powerful companies in the region.

From all the strange episodes, that man felt at home He began looking for information about his house’s past. To do this he spoke to the town’s older inhabitants, including the great-grandson of the mine captain, who lived and worked there. “I discovered a lot of historical information about the house and its contents hidden for a generation. Here there would have been a vault used to store maps of mines and minerals that had been bricked up and plastered over.”

It was then that the man He decided to save any memories that might be on the ground of those times of mining splendor. “I’m working on getting back to the original design of the house. I started chatting with a builder who worked on the house in the ’80s and he said, ‘Have you found the vault yet?’. I froze. I spent a week like if they were banging on the walls, trying to figure out exactly where it would be.

Rupert went to the room where he heard the noises most clearly at night and saw a framed poster. “I had it leaning against the wall in that room. I took it out and did some cfour small test holes in the wall and I could see something was there on the back of one of the holes. When I expanded it, the T Withers and Sons insignia on the vault door became visible.”

“It’s so strange because the sign was exactly over the location of the door and had been there for about a year and a half.” Originally the vault would have been a safe kept in a special roomRupert believes there is still much to discover and aspires to find some treasures from those times.

“It’s not something that scares me“I feel like joining the party,” said the man who is now working to reclaim the old buildings that sit beneath his home. “I’m restoring the original parquet flooring that I salvaged. “I’m also cleaning 5,000 apartment buildings to restore the character original to this room.”
