A DISGUSTED couple have spoken about the horrible discovery they made while lifting floorboards in their new home after noticing a foul smell throughout the new property. The young couple, Junior and Kenzie, were renovating their recently purchased £158,000 home when they realised something wasn’t right.

There was a terrible smell through the whole house,” the couple, who posts videos under the joint TikTok username ourcheaphome, said. After gutting the carpet and lifting the floorboards, the couple made the “creepy” discovery when they unearthed a pile of dirty dishes in the vents – left behind by the previous homeowners. The various dirty bowls, ramequins, pieces of cutlery and glasses were caked with dust and a “hard and crusty” food substance. Astounded by the grim discovery, the couple said they “can’t even understand why this would be easier or make sense to anyone”.

While some users were pragmatic, suggesting it “must have been a teenagers’ room” because “that’s the typical kind of things I can find under my sister’s bed”, some TikTok users suggested otherwise. “I just think you have someone living in your floorboards,” said Sarah Kennerley. “Maybe there is someone living under and that was fed,” Galadriel suggested. Another user, Isabelle, also asked: “How big was the space down there ? Could they’ve been feeding someone there ? Sounds crazy but the world is crazy.” The renovating couple replied: “The space was long and narrow so not large enough for someone to fit but still fairly large.” Most read in News HELI TRAGEDY Investigators reveal how Brit tourist was killed in horror helicopter death REJECTED Archie Battersbee's family denied challenge to son's case at UN by Court of Appeal 'DEADLY BLOW' Horror moment Brit, 22, 'delivers fatal blow to his dad on Marmaris holiday' ‘POISON’ TRAGEDY Mystery as Brit dad and son found dead & family unconscious in 'poisoning' BAKE BRITAIN Brits to bask in 31C sun in days after return to scorching temps this week TRAIN SMASH 9 people including 3 kids killed as train crashes into overcrowded ride It is not the first time new owners are faced with grim discoveries after moving in.
