George Warren Shufelt was a geophysicist and mining engineer from the United States. Hailing from Missouri, Shufelt gained notoriety as an amateur inventor in the 1930s. His most famous invention was a device he called a “radio X-ray,” which he claimed could locate underground tunnels and cavities. Shufelt gained widespread attention in 1930s LA for his bold assertion that a lost city inhabited by Lizard People lay hidden beneath Los Angeles, sparking a rush to find this hidden ruin.Where did he get this rather out-there idea? Well, to be fair there are a lot of tunnels under LA, at least 270. But they weren’t home to a race of lizard people.Instead, most of them were once used as safe street crossings for horses and people. Others are simply abandoned passageways like those below UCLA, a Bel-Air estate, and El Pueblo de Los Angeles State Historic Park. The latter has an interesting story all of its own, said to have been used by Chinese residents during the 1871 Chinese Massacre.
Shufelt wasn’t interested in any of these, however. His inspiration lay in ancient Hopi Native American folklore and stories that he believed indicated Los Angeles was home to 5,000-year-old tunnels. Tunnels that in 1933 Shufelt claimed his “radio X-ray” machine had picked up.After “discovering” the tunnels Shufelt headed to Arizona where he interviewed a famous Hopi leader, Little Chief Greenleaf. Chief Greenleaf told Shufelt that the tunnels were dug around 3,000 BC by a highly advanced race of Lizard People who were related to the Mayans. Apparently, the Lizard People were driven underground following a catastrophic meteor impact that nearly wiped them out. To survive they built three underground cities along America’s Pacific Coast, the most impressive of which was under LA.Using chemicals to dig through the rock these Lizard people dug a network of at least 285 tunnels that once housed 1,000 of their families. According to the Hopi legend, these tunnels and rooms were filled with gold (a symbol of long life) and lined with cement better than anything mankind had come up with.
Shufelt never clarified whether these Lizard People actually looked like Lizards it may have not necessarily humanoid creatures but a figure of speech like how in ancient Ukranian the Khazar Empire (650-965ca) where called serpent people or how Dracula was known as the dragon where his name was derived from (dracula) or how the Hopi people where known as the ant people so this might have been the case. Their underground city did look like a lizzard. The tunnels were said to make up the outline of a great lizard, with its head located under Dodger Stadium and its tail somewhere under LA’s Central Library.
Upon hearing this story Shufelt returned to LA and used his newly invented X-ray machine to map out the Lizard People’s tunnels. He was soon telling the newspapers that he had found 1,900 feet (580 meters) of tunnels and rooms with 9,000 square feet (836 square meters) of floor space. He also claimed to have found 16 places where the Lizard People had stored their gold, stating that the greatest treasure trove was a “key room” hidden deep beneath Times Mirror Square. This was said to hold a map of 37 great golden tablets, each 4 feet long and 14 inches wide (120 cm by 36 cm).
Now that he had his map Shufelt just needed permission to start digging up LA. Luckily for him, his next survey using the radio X-ray machine showed a previously undiscovered “treasure room” on Ft. Moore Hill. The fact that the hill had long been rumored to hold gold hidden by Spaniards during the mid-19th century led enough credence to his claims that the County Board of Supervisors gave Shufelt and his team permission to start digging. The local newspapers lapped it up and were soon awash with spectacular reports of buried treasure in LA. The local government even got in on the excitement, the deal with Shufelt stated that he and his team had to split whatever they found 50-50 with the county. Shufelt soon began a dig on North Hill Street. Just 28 feet (8.5 m) into his drilling the newspapers reported that the team had already struck gold and were ready to start bringing it out. The public was shocked: could these stories actually be true? No, they could not, and in truth they hadn’t found a lot. “Experts” were on record stating that Shufelt’s dig would have to hit at least 1,000 feet (305 meters) before it turned anything up. Unfortunately, the drilling also didn’t go smoothly. Dense boulders made it hard going and after hitting the water table the team had enormous amounts of mud to contend with. Somewhere between the 250 feet (76 meters) and 350 feet (105 meters) mark the team was forced to give up. Exactly why remains unclear. Some reports claim a cave-in was the cause, but others simply state that after the newspapers lost interest in the story, funds dried up and Shufelt’s team ran out of money. Not long after, Shufelt pretty much disappeared, cropping up again in North Hollywood in 1957 but vanishing from history soon after. His claims where later labeled as a conspiracy, was he a con? Or did they just give up too early.
Human trafficking is a pervasive and complex crime that affects millions worldwide. It is not a conspiracy it is real and it exists, approximately 20 million children are trafficked each year. Transcending borders and socio-economic statuses. Among the various methods employed by traffickers to transport victims, the use of tunnels is an often-overlooked aspect that highlights both the ingenuity and the ruthlessness of this illicit trade. We will explore the role of tunnels in human trafficking, examining their significance in transportation, the implications for victims, and the broader societal consequences.
Tunnels serve as clandestine passageways that traffickers exploit to move individuals from one location to another, often across international borders. These tunnels can be found in various regions, notably along the U.S.-Mexico border, where drug cartels and human smuggling operations have established intricate networks. Constructed with a variety of tools and methods, these subterranean routes enable traffickers to evade law enforcement and immigration control, providing a hidden pathway for their illicit activities. Traffickers often choose tunnels for several reasons. They offer a degree of anonymity, shielding operations from surveillance and scrutiny. Additionally, tunnels can bypass checkpoints and barriers that are designed to intercept illegal crossings. This method of transportation not only allows for the rapid movement of victims but also facilitates the transportation of weapons and drugs, intertwining various criminal enterprises and complicating efforts to combat them.
For the victims of human trafficking, the experience of being moved through tunnels is fraught with peril and trauma. Often, individuals are lured by false promises of employment or a better life, only to find themselves trapped in a nightmare of exploitation. The journey through tunnels can be physically and psychologically devastating. Victims may endure harsh conditions, including overcrowding, lack of food and water, and the constant threat of violence from traffickers or rival gangs.
Moreover, the use of tunnels contributes to a cycle of exploitation that can extend long after the initial crossing. Once in a new location, victims may be forced into various forms of labor, including sexual exploitation, domestic servitude, or agricultural work, often under brutal conditions. The clandestine nature of tunnel transportation exacerbates their vulnerability, as victims are frequently cut off from legal resources and support networks.
The Getty Center, perched on a hilltop in Los Angeles, is celebrated not only for its stunning architecture and impressive art collection but also for the intrigue surrounding its infrastructure. Among the lesser-known aspects of the Getty Center are the tunnels that lie beneath its grand buildings. These subterranean passages serve as both practical conduits for the museum’s operations and as a subject of fascination, prompting discussions about art preservation, accessibility, and even urban legends.
The Getty Center, designed by architect Richard Meier and opened in 1997, represents a culmination of J. Paul Getty's vision of an art institution that would make his vast collection accessible to the public. The center encompasses a vast area, with multiple galleries, gardens, and research facilities. To support this expansive layout, a network of tunnels was constructed, primarily for logistical and operational purposes. These tunnels facilitate the movement of staff, art, and supplies, ensuring that the museum runs smoothly without disturbing the visitor experience.
One of the primary functions of these tunnels is to support the transportation of artwork. Given the sensitivity and value of the pieces housed within the Getty’s walls, these tunnels allow for controlled, secure access when artworks are being transported for exhibitions, maintenance, or loans to other institutions. This underground infrastructure also helps to manage environmental conditions crucial for art preservation, providing a stable environment less susceptible to fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
The tunnels beneath the Getty have also given rise to urban legends and speculation. Some stories suggest that they connect to other sites in Los Angeles, weaving a mysterious network that speaks to the city’s hidden histories. While many of these tales are exaggerated or fictional, they underscore a cultural fascination with the unseen aspects of public spaces. The allure of what lies beneath the surface can ignite the imagination, drawing attention to the hidden narratives that surround art and history. There has been speculation about the link between the Getty museum tunnels and the Tunnels discovered by Shufelt. These speculations have led to the idea that the Getty tunnels may be used for trafficking and those tunnels lead to celebrity homes, schools, studios, libraries and many more which will be discussed later.
Here’s an old map that show tunnels between underground military bases like Area 51, Dulce, Los Alamos etc. These are official gov bases that are connected by underground tunnels. I can only imagine the other tunnels that exist if these are completely unknown to anyone on the surface.
The Playboy Mansion, also known as the Playboy Mansion West, is the former home of Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner, who lived there from 1971 until his death in 2017.

The idea of underground tunnels and secret rituals may sound like something out of a horror movie, but for Carter, it is apparently a reality. The details she provided in her accusations are chilling and have left many wondering about the truth behind her claims. Carter claimed to have been trafficked through underground tunnels, where she witnessed horrific pedophilic satanic rituals.
