00:00This happened in Bowling Green, Kentucky, a town which, at the time, a man named Bruce

00:14Wilkerson was the mayor of. He owned a small house in the area that he was in the middle

00:18of renovating, but he would still stay there overnight in the weeks the house was being

00:22worked on. It was the middle of the night on April 22, 2020, when Bruce was woken up

00:27to loud noises coming from the house's basement. As he was coming to, he also recalled smelling

00:32cigarette smoke. Now, the basement was more of a cellar, and then you had to go outside

00:37to actually get to it. Bruce went outside and walked up to its entrance. Right away,

00:42he noticed blood smeared across the basement door. Not a lot, but enough to raise concern.

00:48He opened the door and walked inside. There, he found a backpack filled with woman's clothing

00:53and other various items. Bruce immediately called the Bowling Green Police Department,

00:58a department which he had previously worked for as a police officer. He asked them if there

01:02were any reports of a missing woman, but he was told that there were none, so he closed

01:06the basement door and went back upstairs. Only moments after he got back inside, the house

01:12suddenly lost power. This prompted him to again go back out to the basement. This time, he noticed

01:18the basement door was open. He once again searched inside, and now found a woman who looked to be in

01:24her 20s. She was disheveled and covered in dirt. The woman told Bruce one thing, that she was hiding

01:31from someone. Bruce offered to call the police, but to that she immediately left the basement and ran

01:37away. Nothing had been stolen, so he wasn't interested in her arrest, but he still ended up calling the

01:43police. Police searched the surrounding area, however, they never found the woman. It's still

01:49unknown how long she had been staying there. Her identity is also still unknown, and with no relevant

01:54missing person cases, it's likely this won't change anytime soon. She hasn't been seen ever since.

02:05It's August 2nd, 2010, just past 8pm. A security guard in Ontario, Canada was doing his nightly rounds

02:12on rural government-owned airport lands. Among the trees, the area was dotted with a few abandoned

02:18houses that were commonly targeted by vandals and arsonists. On this night, the security guard

02:24noticed a suspicious vehicle parked close to one of the houses. He decided to sit there and wait for

02:29the owner to return. Two hours would pass until he finally gave up and continued doing his rounds.

02:36By the time he did a full circle and returned to the same spot, the car was gone. It wasn't much,

02:41but the security guard still made a report about it. Fast forward over a year later to November of

02:472011, and a set of contractors were sent out to the same house to examine it for later demolition.

02:53However, as they were completing their inspection, they would discover something in the basement.

02:58They walked inside and saw chains bolted to the ceiling extending to the ground.

03:03The whole room was recently painted completely white.

03:05There was a construction bench, along with tools marked with red paint.

03:09There were multiple jugs of water.

03:11There were multiple jugs of water. All the windows had been double-paned.

03:15The walls and ceiling were insulated with double-layered fiberglass.

03:20Unsettled by the site, the contractors called the police.

03:23Police considered various scenarios. For example, they considered if it could have been a movie set.

03:29But, of course, they also considered the much darker scenarios, like if someone was planning to

03:33abduct another person and lock them inside.

03:35This prompted them to look through filed reports, and this would lead them to the report made by the

03:40security guard over a year prior.

03:43Fortunately, the security guard had written down the car's license plate in the report,

03:47which gave police a starting point.

03:49Eventually, this would lead them to a man named Robert Edwin White.

03:53After that, not much research was required to put the rest of the case together.

03:58Robert's wife had recently ended their marriage, and she would turn to her close friend,

04:02Gwen Armstrong, for support.

04:03This made Robert grow a deep resentment towards Gwen, as he felt she was responsible.

04:10Robert's now ex-wife would end up telling police how Robert ran a renovation business,

04:14and that he always marked his tools with red paint, which was consistent with what they

04:18found in the basement.

04:19This was enough to get him arrested, and while in custody, he would admit to renovating the

04:24abandoned house's basement, although he didn't say why he did it, at least not until he was

04:28thoroughly questioned in court.

04:30There, he admitted that he wanted to abduct Gwen Armstrong, his ex-wife's friend, who,

04:36again, he felt was responsible for his divorce.

04:39Robert was charged with breaking and entering, with the intent to commit an indictable offense.

04:43Before we continue, I wanted to talk about this video's sponsor, Raid Shadow Legends.

04:53Raid Shadow Legends boasts 600 unique champions and hundreds of artifacts, which you get to

04:57combine to build your perfect team to fight your battles and eventually reach the top of

05:00the Doom Tower.

05:02The Doom Tower is Raid's endgame.

05:03It's essentially a giant prison housing numerous challenging bosses to overcome.

05:07It features multiple floors, each one presenting a new challenge for your team of champions.

05:11Some floors will even require specific mechanics to be overcome, like the Scarab King.

05:15He takes barely any damage unless he reduces max HP, and if you attack him without a shield

05:20buff on, he'll destroy your team extremely fast.

05:22This month, Raid released a new feature, Awakening, and a brutal new dungeon, the Iron Twins Fortress,

05:28which if your team can take down, can offer you a huge payoff.

05:31Additionally, Raid recently released the legendary champion Ultimate Death Knight, a champion which

06:04In October of 2015, a set of pictures was posted online to the popular image-sharing website

06:14Imgur.

06:16They were posted by a guy named Jerry, who at the time had just moved out from his parents'

06:20house to live in his own house which he had just purchased.

06:23At first, the post looks pretty innocent.

06:26The first few pictures show parts of the basement with accompanying text.

06:30The text explained how he had just purchased the house only two weeks ago.

06:34The previous owner had passed away, and the house was very old, which made it a pretty

06:37cheap buy, something Jerry described as perfect for a first-time homeowner.

06:42As the post continues, Jerry explains how when he purchased the home, the basement was completely

06:46full of junk, like to the point where you couldn't even really go down there.

06:50When he purchased the house, he started cleaning it out himself.

06:53And that's when he noticed a sheet of plywood oddly fitting into the wall, something he never

06:57noticed before.

06:57He tried moving it, but it was pinned to the wall by the stairs.

07:02He prided the top of it and could make out another room.

07:05He pulled harder at the wood, and it finally gave way.

07:09Immediately, he saw a safe.

07:11He stepped inside the room and tried to open it, but it was locked.

07:16He searched the rest of the small room and found multiple gun cases.

07:19They were all stacked on top of one another.

07:23Accompanying this were crates upon crates of ammunition, all different kinds, too.

07:28As he kept looking, he just kept finding more.

07:31Also found inside was a hand grenade, although it wasn't active.

07:35It didn't even have a pin to pull.

07:37As for the safe, it's still unknown what's inside.

07:41Jerry never gave an update on if he was even able to get it open or not.

07:44Velma Kellen was a retired 73-year-old living in Yelm, Washington.

07:53It was nearing the end of 2012, around the time of year where it was really starting to

07:57get cold outside.

07:59Velma would routinely use her house's furnace to keep the place warm, but she started noticing

08:04how little of an effect it had on the temperature inside.

08:07The house would remain cold.

08:09She started putting the furnace to its max setting, but still, the house stayed cold.

08:14Finally, it got too cold to bear.

08:16She called out a repairman to fix the issue.

08:19He went down to her basement where the furnace was located, and there he found something strange.

08:25The furnace was working fine, but the air duct had been torn so as to redirect the heat to

08:29the basement instead of the house upstairs.

08:32The repairman also noticed empty beer bottles and other trash scattered around the basement

08:36floor.

08:38He fixed the ducts and went up to tell Velma.

08:40When she heard about it, she recalled other oddities, like how there would sometimes be

08:45the smell of cigarettes around her house at random times, or how she had always noticed

08:49her backyard gate was left open after she knew she had closed it the night before.

08:54Both of them realized that someone had clearly been living in Velma's basement.

08:57They believed that someone was getting in the basement through a crawlspace, which was covered

09:05by a slab of stone.

09:08Velma replaced this duct the very next day.

09:11No arrests have been made, and nothing has happened since.

09:15How long this person was living in Velma's basement is unknown.

09:18In July of 2017, Joshua Seguin, a man from New York, was pulled over by police while traveling

09:29through Georgia.

09:30He didn't have a driver's license, and so he was arrested on the spot.

09:34Police searched his truck, and strangely, they found five undersized sharks and a large

09:39circular tank in the bed of the truck.

09:42Owning or even transporting these animals was illegal in the state without a proper license,

09:46something which Joshua didn't have.

09:49Joshua admitted that he was transporting the sharks to New York, where he intended to sell

09:53them.

09:54This prompted police to request a search warrant of Joshua's house.

09:57They were granted it days later.

10:00They immediately searched the house, and when they entered the basement, they found a 15-foot

10:04above-ground pool.

10:06Inside were more illegally kept sharks, some of them endangered.

10:10There were ten of them in total.

10:12Seven live sandbar sharks, two dead leopard sharks, and a dead hammerhead shark.

10:18The animals were carefully relocated to a nearby aquarium.

10:22Investigators believed that Joshua was likely breeding the sharks to sell to private collectors.

10:27He was later charged in court with illegal possession of the sharks with the intent to sell.

10:31In 2019, police discovered an underground bunker under a remote farmhouse in the Netherlands.

10:42Living inside of it, they found a 58-year-old man and a family of six siblings, ranging from

10:4718 to 25 years old when they were discovered.

10:50The six siblings had been living solely in the bunker for nearly a decade.

10:55This became apparent when they were questioned by police and struggled to form full sentences.

10:59It was later revealed that none of them had been to school a day in their lives.

11:04They didn't even know any other people existed in the world.

11:07All seven of them were allegedly staying in the bunker to hide and wait for the end of

11:10the world to come.

11:12It wasn't until the oldest of the six siblings broke out of the bunker and ran to a nearby

11:16pub that anyone was made aware.

11:18This was the first time the man had seen sunlight in nearly a decade.

11:22The man took up a conversation with the pub's owner, who after hearing his story called

11:26the police and alerted them of the situation.

11:29That's when the police raided the underground bunker and freed the rest of the siblings,

11:33who all wished to change how they lived.

11:35The police put the 58-year-old man in custody, and that's when they discovered that he wasn't

11:40the sibling's father as they had originally assumed.

11:42The man didn't even own the farmhouse they had been hiding in.

11:46The windows had been boarded up, and it appeared they had been living self-sufficiently

11:49with their own vegetable garden and animals.

11:51The 58-year-old man was arrested and later questioned further by police, but he never

11:57gave them his identity.

11:59As for the siblings, they were all brought to a safer place.

12:03The community was left in nothing but shock after the whole discovery.

12:06The 600-year-old man was left in nothing but Hammets-Inspannen community.
