From the outside, this Las Vegas house looks just like any other typical house in the area. It’s a two-story home on a normal street.
The owner Girard “Jerry” B. Henderson built this house at 3970 Spencer St., Las Vegas, NV in 1978. The 1 acre (surface) property, may look nothing out of the ordinary but it’s hiding a pretty amazing secret.

This underground home also has a yard that surrounds it on all four sides and a mural which took 3 years to paint. Each mural reflects where Henderson lived, including LA and Colorado.

The property has been purchased several times since it was first put on the market. Currently, the house is owned by a bank after a foreclosure.
