A couple refurbishing their new house were in for the shock of their lives after discovering a secret room containing a bed behind the walls of a basement-level bathroom.
Husband and wife property developers, Steven Sparks, 54, and Carolyn Sparks, 42, stumbled across the dark, cobweb-strewn room while carrying out a contractor survey, and say they didn't even know they had a basement until purchasing, as it hadn't been on the agents' details.
After buying the Victorian property in in Brighton, East Sussex, the couple wanted to draw up a detailed plan in order to refurbish it - but they hadn't banked on making such an eerie find.
