Greetings!
Very, very glad to be here!
I've been after a treasure all my life and finally decided I'm gonna dig it up, and you guys are gonna help me!
I can't believe this community is so big, I'm really amazed and happy that it is and for the looks of it it's filled with nice happy-to-help people.
I don't know if this is the best space to post this, le me know and I'll post it somewhere else but this is the story:
My grandparents bought their farm in the 50s and stories of a hoard have always been around. It has an old colonial era house and it's in the middle of a valley where for many decades there was nothing around. Back in the old days (horse riding days) it provided a place for people to spend the night, and it did this for many years. (Clue number 1. Lots of people from all around came and went from this place)
No mystery that in those days people would burry and hide currency in and around the house. Just the fact that it's so old makes it a good place to look.
When my grandfather bought the place the previous owner was a madame head of a brothel in the city and had the place as a country getaway and would frequently have friends over to bet and play cards. The guy who would take care of the farm told my grandpa a lot of stories even one that involved this lady losing a bet and killing and burrying the guy under the house (when my grandpa bought the place it still had a dirt floor).
The supernatural starts to play a roll in all this now. Turns out my grandpa went to visit an old friend and his elderly mother was some kind of psychic because she described his new farm head to toes without ever being there. Furthermore she said that under some kind of larg rock there was a treasure. My grandpa looked for it but never found it...
Years later they had visit. a friend and his wife. The lady was a human metal detector (apparently that's a thing), the lady pointed out the place in the wall where there's supposed to be gold hidden. They never looked for it because they didn't want to damage the wall.
All these stories have been firing my imagination all my life but what really got me very enthusiastic about finding it was a few years back a friend of mine and I where drinking beers in the old house when he started to look really sick. I asked him what was wrong and he told me he was really sensitive to spirits and that there was a lot of dead people in that house. Furthermore he started to describe me the lives of previous owners or people who used to live there and ask me if the place was once a bank... No, how could it be a bank? I said. He explained that he saw people coming to leave money and gold here as if it was a bank. Well he was sweating cold and all stiff and I started to get worried so helped him out of there, he was having a hard time.
My mom says that she never understood why the previous owner cemented the floor of the enterance of the house since the place was kind of falling apart when her dad bought it. I mean, even the floor was dirt, why would she do that? She always suspected that that might be the rock the old lady was talking about?
One last thing... The previous owner had no intention of selling the farm, long story short she was trying to con my grandpa but he lawyered up and managed to keep it. He says she was crying her eyes out as if she lost something very valuble. This was one of maaaany farms and houses this lady had, she was rich. So why so heart broken about this particular place
Sooo, thanks if you've made it this far. I guess what I need is some advice. What kind of equipment do I need to find a hoard possibly a few feet under ground or inside a wall, or even under a cement plaque?
Any advice of any kind is suuuuper welcome and of course I'll post pics of whatever I find!
Thanks in advance, I'm really excited!
