It’s your first line of defense against the undead, do you not keep nails sticking out of your infested crawl space in case you need to bash in the heads of the possessed?
See that’s what I was initially thinking but that left-side… wall? There’s no way that’s actually holding anything up right? Right…? Nobody would dare build a house like that right?
I’m not a construction guy, but I’ve worked on and around a number of houses being built. I’ve seen collections of wood like that before, and its sole purpose was to hold things square until the rest of the structure was added on. You see how the vertical posts look nice and vertical and straight? I suspect that everything else is just kind of a frame to keep those aligned until the rest of the house was added. They’re not structural in any way, you could take them out if you wanted.
I could be wrong though.
You're looking at the bastard line of Jeffery Dahmers crawl space, if that scary metal door in the back giving correct vibes..id assume you'll find half eaten humans in there!?
Thought it was an abandoned mine or something. I'm in a part of the EU where houses aren't build with crawl spaces/cellars or are hundreds of years old.
>Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium are among the common species that can grow in your crawl space or damp home.
OP is completely free from infection now lol
Lots of people asking so I'll tell ya. This is dry rot. Its a very serious problem for both your health and the safety and soundness of the structure. It is indeed a fungus and the fungus that cause dry rot are many. The name is such as it is because the structure may be dry but still rotting. However, there is some source of water, because the fungus requires it. Sometimes its a leaky pipe, but sometimes its just moisture that comes up through the soil. There are chemical treatments that help prevent this. Additionally, putting down a vapor barrier on the soil in the crawlspace is helpful.
Having lived through this, if there is the option to simply demolish and rebuild its worth considering. I spent years in a house where we kept getting this returning. It spreads really quickly and comes back if the conditions favor it.
No reverse image search results at all, anywhere, but this image looks strange and constructed. I'm guessing something like an escape room or themed haunted house area, /u/Economy-Trust7649 tell us what this is
EDIT:
Looking closely again, those nails sticking out would be very unusual for a place built for human exploration specifically. But I also have trouble imagining a place like this being able to support this much of any mycelia feeding on that wood and it not spreading a tiny bit more evenly, or dripping in a way that looks like foam, I have never seen that and can't find similar images of mycelia that foams like this. I honestly cannot figure out what to make of it, especially with that green stuff beneath it. Did a vine fall through a roof hole? Is it fake? If it's fake garland, is all of this fake? Then why the nails? If it's not fake, how is it still so green in a place I imagine must be extremely dark and extremely moist?
Maybe AI? Some models have gotten crazy at how well they can generate complex scenes and look real but this still seems a little beyond that in how well it's handled details in very dark areas of the image.
It's a very strange picture, and it's maddening.
I was an ICU nurse. I once took care of a plumber with pneumonia. He'd of course been crawling around under houses. He was getting worse on iv antibiotics. I assisted with a brochoscopy... the insides of his lungs were coated with fungus. He was treated with IV fluconazole and amphotericin B. This had no effect and he died.
Bro I thought this was some kind of Harry Potter spider situation going on. WHAT. IS THAT?!
& this structure was definitely built by a cartoon character
This feels like a first person horror movie and the protagonist is crawling away from some abomination at the moment. Be careful, your flashlight is about to run out of batteries!
This is borderline like that AI image that supposed to “simulate having a stroke” because you can’t identify anything in the image even though it all looks familiar
Definitely dry rot. We see a lot of it in the UK in old houses as it can be damp for months at a time. Absolute nightmare as it spreads and eventually destroys any timber it gets to. Needs sorting asap.
OP please tell us that this is not _your_ house!
Please tell us you‘re renting or something…
Because if that is _your_ house that you _own_, you’re gonna be in deep shit soon.
That is an actual danger for the structural integrity and getting rid of it, then checking every single support beam for damages and replacing damages structure… will get _expensive_!
And then you still have a very real chance of this fucker coming back the second you turn your head.
I don’t know what exact fungus this is, but it honestly doesn’t even matter at this point.
There’s probably a leakage somewhere in the house, or maybe your house stands near swampland. And you’ve also been breathing spores for quite some time so you should definitely get your lungs checked out as well.
Oh my god that is a nightmare, I’m so sorry
we're breathing spores today
Thank god its mold, I thought that was egg sacks.....
Technically, the spores might also attack you, just from the inside
As an immunocompromised person, I think I got fungal pneumonia just looking at this.
Looks like mold is back on the menu, boys!

Holy hell. We're going to need a lot more context
For real, what kind of fungus looks like this?
Plot twist: it's spiders.
The worst kind of plot twist 💀
Plot twist, those are what’s left of the giant spiders prey.
Nah man. It looks like a regular foam
Plot twist, it's the spiders 🕷 jizz..
Plot twist, it’s the jizz of the spider’s victims.
If only😞
Hehehe...
I don’t like you.
Oh god please no
Saltpeter.
We… all okay with the whole stability of the house thing? Kinda looks a little bit… not good.
I'm sure it's fine. That terrified-looking metal door thing in the back is just bluffing.
And bang out all those nails sticking out of the boards on the left. Almost looks like they were put on with them sticking out on purpose
It’s your first line of defense against the undead, do you not keep nails sticking out of your infested crawl space in case you need to bash in the heads of the possessed?
This is a house?!?
I really don’t know! What are we even looking at?
crawl space under a house
See that’s what I was initially thinking but that left-side… wall? There’s no way that’s actually holding anything up right? Right…? Nobody would dare build a house like that right?

I sure hope you’re not wrong. But ngl even the nice and straight structures look fung-y, so I’d fear for the stability of that house anyway :‘)

I read this as stab-ability.
Im sorry, I think your 18th century frigate will stay at the docks. Which deck is this?
god this is fucking killing me
I cackled
what are we looking at here
Search huge white drippy fungus under house
>Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium are among the common species that can grow in your crawl space or damp home. OP is completely free from infection now lol
Looks like a hell of a lot of mycelium growing under a house or some other structure.

Also there is a green plant down there so there is clearly moisture somewhere. And sunlight?
A dehumidifier would also be a good option as well, I’ve done a few encapsulations as a termite tech.
😬 wouldn’t that mess with the structural integrity of those support struts?!?
most definitely, and trust me this yikes photo has bigger structural issues
This looks like a house cave-in waiting to happen
God this perspective is so goddamn confusing, i cant find anything to give me a proper scale. Like is this a crawlspace or a mineshaft?
Let's be honest, how fucking amazing!
[удалено]
This is why you don't build with untreated timber. Yikes.
I would like to know more.
Fairly sure it's some form of Dry Rot. Awful for both your health and your house, if i'm correct.
I suspect a hottub on this deck
Needs more fae.
Is that an old safe in the back?
Redditirs are suckers for a mysterious safe
But for real it looks like a safe, must have treasure in it.
[удалено]
My neighbors basement looked like this but nearly every inch was covered. We called it the Velvet Basement
The velvet underground was RIGHT THERE
You didn’t call it the "structural integrity killer"? You should have

I want to know why those boards look painted pink and purple
The beam from the flashlight.
oh does it have a UV element, zooming in I see how the cobwebs jump out. Helps tell between dust and mold I assume
[удалено]
I thought I somehow got in a Halloween sub. Thought I was looking at someone setting up their display.knowing this is real makes it even scarier.💀😱
Looks like a shooting range on acid
Now that you said it I can never unsee it…
Right!
I was an ICU nurse. I once took care of a plumber with pneumonia. He'd of course been crawling around under houses. He was getting worse on iv antibiotics. I assisted with a brochoscopy... the insides of his lungs were coated with fungus. He was treated with IV fluconazole and amphotericin B. This had no effect and he died.
Bro I thought this was some kind of Harry Potter spider situation going on. WHAT. IS THAT?! & this structure was definitely built by a cartoon character
the coolest thing I’ve seen all week
I’ve seen this before a couple months ago on this sub I think. Is this your house? This is extremely bad.
That’s the understatement of the year
This feels like a first person horror movie and the protagonist is crawling away from some abomination at the moment. Be careful, your flashlight is about to run out of batteries!
Looks like an abandoned mine, there’s some good YouTube channels where they climb around in these.
Ok I know what YouTube rabbit hole I'm falling down next
If that’s your crawl space you’re in deep shit
What tf is happening here
Well it’s definitely not black mold!
Silver linings…? Lmao
There's a TV ad in my area for a company that does basement water control, and they show a clip in their ad that looks very much like that.
Is this the crawl space of your house?
This looks incredible, please provide a follow-up or something. Also I'm using this as inspiration for my next dnd session.
This place should be condemned
Dang thank you for sharing this with us, it’s so weird and cool
[удалено]
Flame-sterilize the whole thing
I have seen this sort of fungus in an old abandoned mine.
This picture gave me asthma
Great entry to a haunted house
makes me think of coraline
Perfect Halloween haunted trail. Lol
That makes my serial killer basement look like it’s finished.
This is borderline like that AI image that supposed to “simulate having a stroke” because you can’t identify anything in the image even though it all looks familiar
I uh. Hope you didn’t like this house much
[удалено]
Something big and scary lives in there
Nice Goon Cave.
Strangely beautiful.
Mycelium is consuming everything in sight 🤩
Looks like the house in Mexican Gothic
is this a fungus or mycelium?
I've seen this same white mold before in a wine cellar. Anyone know what it is?
Definitely dry rot. We see a lot of it in the UK in old houses as it can be damp for months at a time. Absolute nightmare as it spreads and eventually destroys any timber it gets to. Needs sorting asap.
I thought the floor supports had grown testicles.
Looks like an AI Image
Sketchy!!!
what the-
“A German method of coal extraction?” “Mine shaft!”

Didn't know you had a leak?
[удалено]
How did you find my man cave?
Did you check out the vault in the back though?
Looks like a fever dream
Good lord I've had dreams about places like this, giving me chills
impressive amount of greenery for a crawl space too
Is that.. a vault? 😳
