When I was little, I always thought it would be cool to have a house with hidden rooms and secret passages.
Now, as a semi-adult, I realize that would be an awful idea. What if I got stuck in a hidden room? No one would be able to find me. Or, even worse…what if there was a secret room that I didn’t know about, and a psychokiller lived in that room?
The Pact is a perfect example of why secret rooms are a bad idea.
Here’s what I learned from the movie:
- Always pee with the door open. Even when other people are in the house.
- If you run outside after a ghost attack, don’t get too comfortable. You have to go back inside to get the child you forgot.
- If someone turns down ice cream, she’s definitely been attacked by a ghost.
- When at a motel, it’s totally safe to walk outside to the vending machine in only your tanktop and undies.
- It’s also totally safe to ride your motorcycle in the same outfit…as long as you put on a helmet.
Most importantly, I learned that just because a movie is called “The Pact” doesn’t mean there’s a pact mentioned in the movie…ever.

My previous neighbors used to pee with the door open. And even with others in the house. My son can attest to it! Maybe they all saw that movie! Oh, I never thought of that….they were weird any way.

No sane human would ever turn down ice cream…or secret passageways.

I also wanted a house with secret passages. I think that was due to watching Webster. Every kid I knew wanted to live in Webster’s house.

Even though all of the above is scary, I think I would still like a secret room. I’d put aluminum foil around on all of the walls and door and I’d probably sleep in there that way if my house ever got invaded with aliens I’d be safe! They do not come in peace!

I was so caught up with ghosts I forgot about aliens!

Why put a tank top on? Just go in your undies. People do the stupidest things in cheesy horror flix.

I pee with the door open ALWAYS. Mostly because my toddler has a meltdown if I don’t but partly because there is always a chance of a zombie apocolypse

I pee with the door open. I also don’t flush until three pees are in there, or a BM. Only sometimes though.
April 10th, 2013 at 5:55 am
Ever only 2 pees?

I STILL want a secret passage. Then if you’re being chased (by other than a ghost) you can just pull on a candlestick and disappear into the fireplace (or pull on a book and be spun around to behind the bookshelf. Those are the only two types of secret passages).

Full of sound advice He He.

I don’t have a secret room, but I do have an attic, and I never go up there because I don’t have a ladder tall enough. At one point I was pretty sure there was a family of serial killers living in the attic, but they turned out to be squirrels.

Squirrels…serial killers…same thing. They both begin with S.

Haha secret passages always intrigued me though people peeing with doors open didn’t…

I recently learned that there is no helmet law in South Carolina. But I BET they’d write a ticket for that tank top panty get-up. Go figure.

I used to have an apartment where there was a small access panel (to the bath plumbing) in my bedroom. The first guy I showed it to swore that was where the trolls live. I never opened it, just to be sure.

Ugly trolls or the trolls with the fluorscent hair?
April 10th, 2013 at 5:34 pm
This apartment was in Cleveland, so they were definitely the kind of trolls that live under a bridge… the ugly little ones they make horror movies about.

I might have been down with a secret room before watching The Hidden Face. Not so much anymore.

I also wanted a house with a secret passage. I blame the Famous Five!!

I always wanted a secret passage. Now I want to see this movie. 🙂
