This incredible incident occurred with Simon Marks. He had bought himself a new house and had relocated to that a few months ago only. The man was an ordinary person with an ordinary lifestyle until he saw a bump on his driveway. He initially took it lightly but could not ignore any longer when the bump changed into a hole. He mistook it for a sinkhole but that was not the case. Upon further investigation, he realized that the hole was keeping a long-hidden secret. A secret that swept the floor off his feet.
Lifestyle
Simon Marks makes his living as a computer support technician. He had been in his business for a long time and had even saved a lot of money. And with that money, he bought himself a house. That was his first house. The 37-year-old man lived a normal life. His daily routine of weekdays includes going to his 9-5 work and after that spending some me time with himself. And on weekends, he would go on trips with his family and friends to do away with the office stress. That too was not often. It was the first house that he had bought with his own money. The man was living alone in the house, at least that is what he thought. Little did he know that the house he had bought was way more than what he had thought it to be.
The Day
The cards began to reveal itself in October of 2016. On that day, like every other day, the man got into his car to go to work. He had no idea that reversing the car that particular day would turn out to be such a mess. He was about to find a mystery. He could not catch the weird vibes of his new house until a few days. He was spending the usual life. Just like always he would leave for his work. The house was changed but his routine was still the same. Every day before leaving for work, He would make sure that the front door is locked and then he would get into his car to drive to the office from the same driveway that was something else from inside.
Something Was Unusual
Simon tried hard to back out his car but something in his driveway was making it difficult for him. The wheel was getting stuck by something. He was getting late for the work so he forcefully pressed on the gas and pulled the car away from the driveway. The man had just gotten a bump on his driveway, his favorite part of the house. But he had no time to think about it. He rushed to his office. However, the thought was still in his mind. But the man did not know that the bump he had left ignored on his driveway was just the tip of a gigantic mystery. After coming back home, Simon assessed the driveway. He concluded that either the concrete of the pavement was not built properly or maybe the driveway was once used as a front yard. And maybe because of that, it was not stable.
Bump Turned Into Hole
One fine morning he woke up only to see an unbelievable sight. The bump had gone and with that the entire driveway too. Simon had no idea what to do. Simon had never seen anything like this ever. What was wrong with his driveway? First, it was a bump and now this big giant hole. That is what came to Simon’s mind. He had bought this house a few months ago only and now his house was disappearing into a hole. The truth was something else. He called in his father and professionals to look into the issue. The man waited for them to arrive outside his house. He was yet to recover from the incident. Soon his father reached him.
“Get Digging, Son”
On reaching his father said, “Get digging, Son.” The man had called in help from his father and other professionals to look into the matter. As he could not figure out what was that, he asked his parents and experts to help him find out. They found a ladder under the ground. A ladder made of steel. His investigation gained him more information about the house. He learned a lot about the history of the area where he was living. He found out that his house was the first that was constructed on that piece of land and was made by the defense forces who used it for strategic protection for villages of around.
