Me too! But my wife won't allow it. She thinks it's too creepy.

I wonder if such a thing would increase the value of a home?

I've got to admit, I'd pay more for a home with a feature like that!

My husband and I are in the market now, and we've always talked about having a secret passageway, even if it's just for the cool factor... Maybe the do-it-yourself kit could come in handy... I love the fingerprint id, or the retinal scanners - that would keep people from using the master bath! Bwa-ha-ha!

Imagine having a secret rec room in the basement or something!

You could put all sorts of expensive television sets and stuff in there without having to worry about burglars finding it!

That's amazing. I would totally love to have a house honeycombed with hidden passages and rooms.

Yeah, that's fantastic. I do wonder if you have to get them to add these things when you're building the house, though...seems like it would be hard to add a secret room to a pre-existing house, doesn't it?

I'm not ashamed to say that I would also be willing to pay more for a house that had some of the secret passages demonstrated on the website. I impressed by some of them moreso than others, but there is really something cool about having a hidden room or passage in your home.

I would imagine that it would be much easier to have these installed when you're building a house, but some of the options seemed simplistic enough for an existing building. You might have to do some major renovations to create a secret room, but some buildings might allow such a thing to be done without two much difficulty.

Well, sadly my attempts to build a secret passage way have been thwarted.
First the city denied my application for the poison needle trap.
Then, I found out I'd have to buy the bookshelf and books seperatly.
Finally, after all the work to exscavte a secret chamber, I found people living in it. They actually claimed that it was their apartment.
So much for calling dibs.

*drools*

It's...so...beautiful...

Although it would have to lead to either the basement, or the garage. Sad thing is, I already wanted to keep a laboratory in my house to.

I would so love to install the bookcase on my bathroom door, then invite everyone over for limitless punch, but of course i would need stain resistant carpet...

While your at it, better hide your vases and flower pots.
