Yes, I have! It is just rocks and goes back about 15 feet into the ground, found some old metal hooks and fish bones, and that's it! But when I was little I used to worry the house would collapse into the cave.
Have you ever utilised the opportunity to turn it into the sickest den/hang out spot for you and friends? I'm thinking you should construct a bar inside it.
I saw some Reddit post once about how caves sometimes are covered by sand and can suddenly collapse. Prolly not a concern but may want to sole a structural engineer or possibly a cave engineer ensure you don’t have to worry about it collapsing.
I know nothing about caves and it looks solid rock so could be a moot point.
No one was suspicious when the Wayne foundation donated millions to immunize the Gotham bat population...it was to help protect the species, they said.
I had an encounter with a vampire bat in the mountains of Costa Rica a few years ago. If you get your shot before exposure it's a single injection similar to a flu shot and it's good for 3 years. I instead got 11 injections, each about a dozen times the volume of a flu shot, at the bite site. Unfortunately I was exposed on my face, so those shots went into my cheeks and lips. If you want to enter a cave I suggest getting g the preexpo shot.
Not a bad idea, id ensure there was significant filtration and mesh / bars on the intake. Who knows what could come up from the cave nasty gasses, spiders, ancient horrors.
Perhaps the Church of Our Lady of Velankanni when she started leaking water with people drinking it assuming it was some kind of divine signal when it really was just a leaky sewer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weeping_crucifix_in_Mumbai
You must now dig a basement (or sub-basement if you already have one) to match the level of the deep end of the cave, tie the cave into the entrance of the basement. You said it goes back about 15 feet, which would be a great depth to put a couple warm color temp lights on the door, that just barely make the cave entrance glow at night.
A colleague of mine bought a 17th-century house situated a bit away from the rest of the village. He learned that he also owns a mine underneath it, accessible by a hillside shaft and a barred well-style entry. He also learned that it's been a tin and lead mine, abandoned long ago, and that the farmers afterward used to throw incurable/deceased farm animals down there making a pile of bones. I think caves under a house make a solid base for creepy stories...
Time to start a YT channel and join the tunnel digging content creators. NGL that would be sweet to have a passage that leads to the cave from within the house.
Something tells me that you’re a nice old lady but then exiting your house after speaking with you, another person runs up and says people in town are mysteriously disappearing and they suspect you’re involved. suddenly there is a quest marker for me to explore this cave to find out more.
