As Megan Moore began to strip the wallpaper in one of her sister’s bedrooms, she soon realised what had been left behind by a previous resident of the property
A Scottish woman shared her astonishment after uncovering the “shock of the century” as she helped to decorate her sister’s bedroom.
Megan Moore took to TikTok with a grand reveal after stripping wallpaper in the room that will serve as a nursery for her sibling’s baby. “Stripping the walls in my sister’s house for the first time since they moved in to decorate their baby’s nursery,” she penned in a caption. “[It] left us with quite a surprise.” Megan’s video began as work got underway, and it soon became apparent that something unusual laid beneath the wallpaper.
First, a pair of hands gripping a Lightsaber appeared, swiftly followed by the faces of Yoda and Darth Maul.
As more wallpaper was stripped, the images of Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi followed in a stunning Star Wars scene that filled the entire wall.
“May the force be with you,” declared Megan afterwards as her video was viewed more than 1.2 million times in just 15 hours, at time of writing.
It prompted scores of TikTok users to urge her to leave the image from a galaxy far, far away in place for the bedroom’s new little occupant.
“So that’s the room decorated then,” one person quipped. A second declared: “This is wonderful. The force chose you to uncover it. Choose your path wisely, little one.”
A third individual expressed relief: “Thank God the previous owners wallpapered and didn’t decide to paint over it.”
And a fourth TikTok user exclaimed: “So you can’t remove that now. That is the remodelling. Her baby is now the coolest baby in town.”
Meanwhile, a fifth recalled a similar scenario, penning: “I still wonder if this mural at my mams old house got painted or wallpapered over, when it was bought by landlord and turned into a HMO.
“If it was wallpapered be quite a surprise for another owner to find it.
They added: “We also had a red cave with a spaceship painting on the fireplace but that had to be ripped off due to chimney issues (though we still have a mini version that was done on canvas).”
