A SEEMINGLY normal looking terraced house sold last year hides a bizarre hidden secret that makes it one of the most unique ever seen.
The home in Rhyl, North Wales, which was bought for £170,000, is adorned with countless designs to bring out your inner child but appears completely standard from the outside.

Upon entering the three-bed semi-detached home, guests are immediately met with Disney-inspired designs on the walls and amongst the furnishings.
The property features a number of murals dedicated to Disney films, including beloved movies Aladdin, Snow White, and The Lion King.
Characters including Aladdin and the Genie are found on the walls of the open-plan living room and kitchen/diner area, alongside Princess Jasmine, Abu, Rajah, Iago, and the Sultan.
As expected, the former owner was a "massive" Disney fan, telling her estate agent she had visited Disneyland more than 20 times in her life.
Moving to the bedrooms, one features a theme from The Lion King while another blends a combination of Snow White with the Ministry of Magic from Harry Potter.
Echoing the 1937 classic film, a Magic Mirror mural appears above a fireplace, which is a replica of one used from the Harry Potter films.
Images of other characters adorn the rest of the room, including those of Maleficent, Ursula, the Evil Queen from Snow White, and Jafar.
Adding to the Harry Potter theme, one door even has the iconic sign Platform 9 ¾ on it.
The wall along the staircase features another classic film - Mary Poppins - with a silhouette of the traditional London skyline taking up centre stage.
Quotes from a number of Disney films also find themselves on each step.

Heading into the kitchen, cupboards have been decorated with the names of iconic Disney songs, including fan favourites Hakuna Matata from The Lion King and Under the Sea from The Little Mermaid.
Joining the smaller bedrooms inspired by The Lion King and Snow White, the main sleeping space is dedicated to a combination of Lilo & Stitch and Wreck-It Ralph.
The room features bedding adorned with beloved character Stitch while the walls are painted reminiscent of Sugar Rush - the fictional video game inhabited by one of the main characters in the 2012 animated film.
A third bedroom is 1980s themed and packed full of collectables and memorabilia.

Heading out into the garden, an '80s-themed mural dominates the side wall, featuring an assortment of retro pop culture characters including He-Man, She-Ra, Optimus Prime, ET, and an Ewok from Star Wars.
When it was sold last year, its listing read: "We've just waved our magic wand and Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo we've found your happily ever after.
"A charming three bedroom home where dreams come true.
"Step into the spacious living/dining/kitchen area where the magic begins.
"With plenty of natural light and an open plan design, you'll feel like you're in the happiest place on Earth with ample room for all the family, and can easily accommodate a large dining table and chairs, with double doors opening onto the newly laid Indian sandstone patio."
It sold for £170,000 in November of last year - £10,000 lower than the advertised price.
