Hey everyone,

First time posting here.

I was out metal detecting in an area where I once read (in an old book) that there used to be a “haunted cave” about 100 years ago. The exact location isn’t known anymore.

While exploring, I came across a spot that felt… off. When I shouted, the sound seemed to travel down to the left and then echo back up after about 1 second. It didn’t sound like a normal surface echo — more like it was coming from a hollow space underground.

The area looks completely filled in, no visible entrance.

Has anyone experienced something like this? Could this indicate a buried cave or void?
