They received a letter and because of it they found a secret room in the house (@living_in_history/)
Imagine discovering that your house has at least 3 rooms that you didn't know existed!
Courtney and Matt find a mysterious letter in their mailbox that reveals secret rooms, hiding places and hidden compartments in their 130-year-old home.
The writer of the letter introduced himself as the last remnant of the family that owned this estate.
Courtney was very excited about the letter she received and decided to record the moment she tells Matt about it and the two of them follow the attached instructions and reveal the secret rooms.
"We received a letter addressed to the 'buyer,'" Kourtney explained in a series of Tiktok videos, adding that the letter came from Canada: "It says, 'Let me introduce myself. I'm the last survivor of the Madison family that used to own this house and I grew up in it. I want to tell you about the secret rooms. in it and some things that you may not have been told when you bought the house.''
Courtney and Matt do not reveal in the videos where their home is or any additional information about the Madison family that is apparently written in the letter.
In their first video, which garnered more than 2 million views, Kourtney revealed the contents of the letter to Matt and the viewers at home.
This is how it started:
@living_in_history We have secret rooms!?!?

In the second video, the pair began a tour of their Victorian-style abode and followed directions to reveal a secret liquor cabinet located above the fireplace in their front lounge.
The liquor cabinet was hidden behind a sliding mirrored panel and there the couple found bottles of 1970 French rosé and 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon alongside bottles and cans of bourbon, beer and sherry liqueur.

In the third video, the two continue to follow the instructions in the mysterious letter and are led to the door in the wall of their bathroom.
With Matt holding their little daughter's hands, the three go up to the second floor where Kourtney shows viewers her very creepy bathroom, according to her (with a picture of how it originally looked on the wall).
There she shows viewers a small secret room hidden behind the wall, although she doesn't seem to be excited about it.
In contrast to that bedroom, she adds that she was thrilled to discover that the bathroom has another door that leads to a kind of storage room that she doesn't really know what to do with.
She says that the letter talks about this warehouse, although she admits that she actually knew about its existence when she purchased the estate.
"There's this huge space," she says in the video, "we're going to try to figure out how to use that space, but right now it's just kind of a really cool room."
And here are two more secret rooms she found in her bathroom:

The viewers of the videos were enthusiastic about the content of the letter and the secret rooms that were revealed.
"I love your house. It's like a treasure hunt," wrote one, and another added: "This is my dream. So jealous of you."
Courtney welcomes her new followers and tells more details about the house:

"Another day, another treasure"

In a separate video, Kourtney and Matt said that the previous owners of the house left antique furniture and decorative objects in the house, including a jukebox that plays a hair-raising version of the wedding march.
"My God!"
Kourtney shouted in the video where she was exposed to the music box for the first time, "Every day a new treasure is discovered in this house."
