Chapter 18 - Finding Hidden Surveillance Footage In The Basement

Inside the dark, damp room under the stairs, investigators discovered a terrifying hidden surveillance system. Monitors displayed live feeds of every single room in Diane’s house, capturing years of emotional manipulation.
More horrifyingly, a hard drive connected to the system contained dozens of hidden video files. The files recorded Diane locking Noah in the dark storage room whenever he cried or spilled water.
