James’s day took an unexpected turn when he found Liam sobbing in the attic. Little did he know, as he rushed to comfort his frightened son, that a long-hidden secret was about to surface in their home.
The story began in 2018 when deer ravaged the family’s arborvitae trees. While preparing to replace them, they noticed something unusual nestled among the trees on the east side of the yard. Initially mistaken for an electrical box, it turned out to be something far more puzzling. CONTINUE BELOW
When landscapers arrived in May 2018 to remove the damaged trees, they discovered that the metal box was actually the entrance to a massive hornet’s nest. Stunned by the nest’s size and the bizarre noises it emitted—resembling a struggling engine—James and Liam speculated that something significant might be hidden inside.
