She kept running from door to door in her house but couldn’t find the origin of the sound that woke her up in the middle of the night. She looked for the switch to make light in the room as it was too dark to see what lies even an inch ahead of her. That constant “thump”  sound was driving her crazy and the feeling of what is it did not stop for a single moment. She closed her eyes and when she opened them again it was all just a dream.

Some dreams do come true for certain people and the same happened with a woman who found out something really amazing in the basement of her house. To learn more about this historic discovery, make sure you watch the video at the end of this article which will shock you.

It’s Just A Dream You Say

A resident of the town of Lansdowne, Alexandra Poulos has lived there since childhood. She always had this special feeling about her house that made her growing up years really memorable. In an interview with ABC, she told them about her dreams, “When I was a child I would have random dreams about there being other rooms in the house. I’d look it up on dream meaning sites and people always thought I just had a crazy imagination”

Each and every day this house said something to her but being a child she didn’t understand anything but curiosity began to grow inside of her with each passing day. Until this day came.

Tenants Start Their New Adventure

During her interview, she told about the living situation, “I just love it so much. I started renting it out, and now we have awesome tenants”. Renting out the house provide you with an extra source of income but maintaining the house as old as this one was going to be hard for her and it did not take much time before several problems started falling in front of her related to the house. It started with the plumbing and then one after other the house started to fall apart and introduced them with its secret.

The House Falling Apart

Alexandra told in the interview about the incidents that started to took place one after another, “First it was (the) oil tank that went, and then after that, it was an old cast-iron sewer pipe that just started cracking, so I had to get that replaced”. But one-day things got out of hands when she received a call from Jerry, her tenant, who told her that there are cracks in the walls and they were really afraid about the house condition which was becoming extreme day by day.

A Good Landlord

Alex never ignores her tenants, “I always respond right away because I try to keep the house as I would want it because I still love it” she told in the interview. When she met them and inquired about the problems which were a lot of them but what clicked her the most was the basement. She felt like going down in the basement but decided not to. If she would have gone then she would have seen something different entirely.

The Detective In Her

To make herself sure about the rumor she started researching about it. She would sit in front of the computer for hours, ”For the past couple weeks, I’ve been looking stuff up on the history of homes in the area. It was, like, 2 a.m. one night, and I came across an article that said there was this house that’s, like, a five-minute drive from my house and the owners found out it was linked to the Underground Railroad” she told in the interview. After reading that she was very intrigued and decided something that will change everything for her.

It Was Time To Decide

She thought about the possible link between her basement and underground railroad but couldn’t decide on what should be her next step. She thought of getting it dug up but then there would be a possibility that the basement could fall apart all the way and the rumor that she wants to believe could all just be a big lie. It was a big risk but she must decide because the house was telling her something. She was struggling with mixed emotions of excitement and fear.
