What would you do if you found this hidden in your house?

A New York couple made quite the discovery during a home renovation - a stash of Prohibition-era whiskey hidden in the walls and floorboards. Nick Drummond says he'd heard stories that a local bootlegger built the 100-year-old home - but never believed them before now.

A total of 66 bootleg bottles - worth about $1,000 each - were found in various locations, including a hidden chamber below the floorboards. Now Drummond, a historical preservationist, has been sharing his discovery on Instagram, along with historical research on the bootlegger - a man named Count Adolph Humpfner who died in 1932.

Ever buy a house and find something unusual inside?
