Viewers had plenty to say about the discovery. Many called it “scary” or asked how @candyrainsalon and her husband could stand the smell. “Time to move,” one user wrote. “And that’s why it was covered,” another joked. Others had plenty of questions about the home itself. To help with that, @candyrainsalon posted a follow-up clip giving a tour of the place. The viral moment is similar to a Reddit post that spread widely in early 2021. In it, a homeowner claimed to have found a giant Monopoly board underneath their carpet — which, to be fair, sounds a lot better than a manhole cover.
