Digital Farewell

The digital realm, which had once been a platform for sharing their story, now held the aftermath of their mysterious journey. The original photos were deleted from Imgur, and the TheBrokenBookCase account closed, leaving a void in the online narrative. However, before disappearing without a trace, TheBrokenBookCase posted a final update on Imgur.

“I left to go to a friend’s house while the police investigated my house. They found nobody there,” wrote TheBrokenBookCase. “They have told us that the person was only living there temporarily, which doesn’t make that much sense to me. But apparently, he would come in for periods of time, then leave for a while.”

“There were no other entrances to the secret passage. Therefore, the person would have been using my parents’ bedroom to access it. The walls are incredibly soundproof, which is probably how we didn’t even notice. We were cleared to move back in today, but obviously, we’re not staying, just as a precaution,” added TheBrokenBookCase. “My parents said that I was never allowed back in there again, and believe me, I tried. They actually went inside and boarded the whole place up.”
