Woman's joy after discovering hidden room in her house behind a wardrobe

A woman was left open-mouthed after a DIY project revealed a hidden room behind a wardrobe.

In a video shared online, she shared how they discovered the secret space after knocking down a built-in wardrobe in a bid to create more space.

The incredible discovery has gone viral on TikTok in a video which has been viewed more than 211,000 times since being uploaded yesterday.

In the video, she explained: "This is so weird," before showing off the large space adjacent to her bedroom.

In another video, she explains: "This is my mum's room and there's a closet. Her boyfriend is moving in and they're trying to give him a closet.

The video has been seen thousands of times (TikTok)

"So he broke down the wall to try and make it bigger and it turns out there's a whole other side of the house."

Viewers were left jealous by the unexpected discovery, with one commenting: "I wish I could find another whole part of my house. I'm never lucky."

Another joked: "You found Narnia."

People were divided over the discovery of the hidden room as some warned it could be haunted (TikTok)

Some people were confused about how the family hadn't found it before - especially since the space had windows.

But the woman said they just hadn't discovered the extra room while previously exploring.

She added: "We searched the house up and down for a while and eventually gave up."

Lots of people warned her to be careful about using the hidden space.

One person asked: "Anyone else thinking the old homeowners trapped a spirit in the room and built the wall to hide it and keep it in there...or is it just me?"

Another commented: "I'm over here thinking about why was it boarded up in the first place? What happened in that room?

"Has no one seen Hill House?"

A third warned: "Probably kept a demon in there but since you opened it, you're all f*****.

"Have you not watched any paranormal movies?"

It follows one terrified homeowner deciding to lock up a secret room after finding it filled with creepy dolls.

In a similar vein, the woman discovered the property while clearing out a wardrobe, three months after buying the house from an elderly woman.

But she was left creeped out after finding it packed with antiques - including a headless doll and several Barbie's

In a final video from the hidden space, she adds: "This room just left me very unsettled and actually I feel really uncomfortable back here."

She added: "After today I've decided that I'm locking this room up and I think it should go back to those who this room belongs too," before focusing in on the dolls."
