Raine and her boyfriend recently moved during the coronavirus lockdown.

Due to the pandemic, they weren't able to get an in-person viewing of their new home before buying it and only saw pictures of it on the internet.

So you can imagine their surprise when they eventually arrived at their new place in Kansas City and were met with a mystery.

"We realized that it had something very weird about it that we had not noticed from the 18 pictures that we had stared at for like the past couple of months," Raine explained in her TikTok clip.

The couple noticed that an entire part of the attic that was obvious from the outside couldn't be reached from the inside!

Raine demonstrated this by filming all the rooms on her top floor – there wasn't a door or any other type of access to the mysterious space in sight.

The only thing she and her partner discovered was a small, bolted hatch....

After keeping millions of users in suspense, the couple finally uploaded a second TikTok clip, which shows them opening the hatch and discovered a big surprise.

Their attic has an entire extra room, a huge space complete with windows and finished floors.

The roofing is also clearly brand new, but the room is empty and unfinished. Only a lamp is hanging from the ceiling.

Just like Raine, viewers are wondering about the purpose of this secret room.

"Nahhhh that was probably blocked off for a reason *cough cough* demon ghosts!" one user joked, to which another user wrote, "Congratz, you just released an evil spirit."

Aside from the laughs, the attic videos are attracting a lot of attention: in just three days, the two clips got over 6.1 million views and 500,000 likes!
