Chris and Colleen Otcasek bought a house in Woodland Hills, California in 2013 and were aware there was a special feature included in the backyard – a fallout shelter from the 1960s.
The couple figured the shelter was just a hole in the ground, but the hole turned out to be a time capsule! Built in 1961 during the height of the Cold War by nuclear engineer Alvin Kaufman, the shelter was perfectly preserved.
The shelter supplies were still completely intact and included aluminum foil, tissues, sleeping pills, cans of “multi-purpose” food and eroding cans of coffee.
There was also plenty of reading material in the shelter to ward off boredom – in case the Kaufmans were in the shelter for an extended period of time.
On second thought, maybe the hole in the backyard isn't a shelter but a wormhole to the past! Okay, maybe I'm the one who should lay off of the science fiction books…
