The Creepy Nature of Basements

I woke up yesterday in a basement in Milwaukee…

That’s true, and kind of a creepy way to start a story.

However, this is also true.

I woke up yesterday in a guest room in Milwaukee…

What makes basements so inherently creepy?

  1. @ Conall – No. Just that the basement you slept in is not creepy. Some basements are in fact, very creepy! Take for example, my friend’s basement — 100 year old house with dirt floors in the basement. I have not, not will I ever, venture down to that basement — VERY CREEPY!

  2. Haha. Funny post. You can replace basement with a number of different places too.

    I woke up yesterday in a two-car garage in Milwaukee…

    You’re right, waking up in a two-car garage would be kinda creepy, and definitely weird, but I don’t think I’d consider two-car garages creepy in general. Now if you said, “I woke up yesterday in a trunk in a two-car garage in Milwaukee…” that would definitely be creepy.

    Evil basement cat?

    Thanks for the clarification. It’s hard to believe, but it’s clear I need to spend even MORE time online than I do.

    Thanks.
