    These Theories are INSANE! ( We Used To Live Here r/OldHouseArchive )

    Halloween Special 👻🎃Join us on the most haunted day of the year: Halloween. This episode dives into all the wild theories surrounding We Used to Live Here by Marcus Kliewer. Think: secret Morse code messages, dimensional shifts, peculiar ants, time-loops, and unwanted house guests who might be more than they seem.🔍 Here’s what we unpack:The recurring Morse code at the end of chapters - many readers believe it spells out a hidden message pointing to alternate realities. The house itself as a portal, not just a setting - some interpret the story as a commentary on time travel, shifting identities, and parallel lives. The unsettling detail of ants and shifting architecture - symbols of a world gone wrong...Unreliable narrator & memory trap: Is Eve losing her grip… or is the house rewriting history? The possibility that the visiting family aren’t just unwelcome guests, they’re echoes of other versions of the house, its past, or future. If you thought you knew what was happening when you closed the book, think again. We’re reading between the lines, listening to the knocks in the basement, wiring up the Morse code, and chasing time as it bends. It’s spooky season — and this story is ready to warp your notion of what a haunted house can be.🔔 Subscribe to The Basically Bookish Podcast so you don’t miss this deep dive. If you love fantasy, horror, hidden codes, and books, broken down into just the right size, you’re in the right place.
