Literary works employ the term "crypt" to evoke a sense of mystery, history, and the uncanny. Often a physical subterranean chamber—be it a burial vault beneath a chapel or cathedral [1, 2, 3]—it also carries metaphorical weight, symbolizing hidden secrets or inner darkness, much like the torch that illuminates the recesses of a troubled mind [4]. In narratives ranging from gothic tales to historical epics, crypts are depicted as places of solemn rituals, forgotten relics, or even as sites harboring unexpected revelations [5, 6, 7]. The word thus becomes a powerful device, merging the concrete architecture of ancient edifices with the abstract realms of memory and mystery [8, 9].
