hidden room
Concealed interior space
A hidden room is a concealed space within a building, accessible through a secret door, moving bookcase, or other disguised entrance.
Old houses sometimes contain hidden rooms built for hiding people or valuables.
The concept appears frequently in mystery fiction and horror: The detective discovered a hidden room behind the fireplace.
In video games, hidden rooms reward exploration with treasure or secrets.
