So we moved into a new (for us) house a couple of days ago and have just found the entrance to the basement we didn't know was there. Bearing in mind it's after midnight, do we open it just now or leave it until the morning? What do think we'll find in it?

P.s my house mate is a chicken

Rule #1: don't go down the basement alone.

News flash! We found old brochures from when the house was last sold and in the picture there is a hatch in my housemates bedroom floor right underneath where his bed is now...

Other way around - that's why Dorothy was going to hid in the storm cellar. Our house has a basement.

The best thing to do is to split up and explore the place individually.

It always works out well in films.

Do you know a sexually promiscuous teenage cheerleader? If so send them down to check it out first if they manage to come back out alive then the coast is clear.

I've watched enough films to know that the minimum prerequisite armourment before entering a newly discovered basement is an axe, a flamethrower, a shotgun and a revolver with a silver Bullet.

Armed thus you should be okay otherwise stay the **** out...

We found a hatch in the kitchen of a tented flat... Led to a complete other floor. 7 rooms, water/electric etc. It was a part converted basement flat that hadn't been finished so had been sealed off! We also rented a house that had a sauna in the basement...letting agent had no idea as she was scared of spiders so wouldn't go into the basement!
