secret room
Concealed private space
A secret room is a concealed space within a building, hidden behind bookcases, false walls, or other disguises.
Secret rooms appear frequently in mystery fiction and gothic architecture, where they harbor treasure, fugitives, or dark family secrets.
In real life, they range from Prohibition-era speakeasies to modern panic rooms: The old mansion had a secret room behind the fireplace.
