Batman in My Basement	comment	Some character â€” a Rebellious Princess, an alien, The Chosen One or the Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughternote Or Batman â€” is on the run, homeless, out of options, and needs a place to hide. It becomes the duty of the first available Ordinary High-School Student they come across to stash the hero in their basement/garage/attic/bedroom until they Save The World/defeat the Big Bad/find a portal back to their Magical Land. The rescuer, whether enthusiastic or reluctant, quickly runs into a big problem. Because they are not a victim of Parental Abandonment, they have to keep up a charade of hiding the character from said parents. Family members start to notice that the character's spending a lot of time in their room, acting rather snippy about people going in there, stashing food, and apparently talking to themselves. Meanwhile, the hidden character isn't much help, being prone to doing strange things having to do with their origin, or falling in love with their protector's sibling or friend, or being pursued by one of their own, or being incapacitated. When the character is eventually found, a quick Secret Identity, Unpronounceable Alias, or Line-of-Sight Alias will be conjured on the spot, along with an unusual job title to explain their strange outfit. If female, the hidden character will frequently end up as a maid. As you would expect it is also a popular concept in fanfictions. Mostly in the form of the author him or herself finding his/her favorite and beloved character entering the real world from their media of origin (book, tv, comic, etc.) and befriending them. And then hilarity ensues The Trope Namer is the Batman: The Animated Series episode "I've Got Batman In My Basement", which revolved around a group of local children hiding Batman from the Penguin as he recuperated from a heavy dose of poison. The production team does not think too highly of the episode, citing their distaste for excessively kid-friendly plots as well as the bumbling antics of the villains. Subtrope of Sent Into Hiding. May overlap with Supporting the Monster Loved One and Wounded Hero, Weaker Helper. Compare Secret Pet Plot, a similar storyline but with non-sentient animal companions instead.

Batman in My Basement / int_129c7b57	comment	In an episode of Ultimate Spider-Man (2012), Peter has to hide, of all people, the frickin' Hulk in his bedroom, in a situation similar to that of the Trope Namer. With the Hulk being the Hulk, he has a really hard time keeping Aunt May (who is right downstairs) from noticing.

He is forced to hide the tsar from his wife, nosy neighbors, and the police, while he fixes the damaged machine. The twist is the tsar is a dead ringer for one of his neighbors (who is stuck in the past, impersonating the tsar), so naturally everyone assumes it's him.

Batman in My Basement / int_1a4b3ea2	comment	Digimon touches this theme a lot when the action is set in the real world, with the Digimon usually acting as soft toys. The parents usually find out the truth eventually. Digimon Adventure plays the trope straightest with Izzy to the extent that his parents become concerned that "one day at camp" changed him so much. They're a little more bewildered when Tentomon ends up botching it too. Subverted in Digimon Data Squad. Masaru tries make a big point to Agumon that he must not, under any circumstances, be discovered by his family... only for both of them to botch it thirty seconds later. Mom took it pretty well, actually. Considering DATS is the reason her husband disappeared, it's not really surprising. Basically averted in Digimon Tamers. Terriermon does play the part of a plush toy (and gets subjected to play dates with Henry's baby sister Suzie), but Renamon is rather skilled at not being seen and she goes off on her own half the time. Takato makes an attempt at this trope with Guilmon, but after about a day he realizes it's not going to work so he finds an abandoned shed or something in a nearby park that Guilmon can live in.

In addition to the monster, who was hiding from the modern equivalents of a pitchforks-and-torches-wielding mob, Stanley also ended up hiding a leprechaun, a German dwarf who didn't want to have to deal with the US immigration service, and the ghost of Napoleon, who wasn't so much hiding as haunting a grandfather clock and hoping for some decent wine. The later revamp, drawn by Phil Foglio, had only the monster, who was now a nameless demon exiled from Hell for being too nice.

However, while she was in a coma, the Berlin Wall fell, and the Communist East Germany she knew no longer exists. Thus, the reunification of Germany becomes the Batman in his basement, as he goes to increasingly desperate lengths to make her think East Germany is still as she remembers it.

When he returns in the morning and finds his werewolf has turned into Eric, he's happy to help him get the silver bullet out so the wound can heal, telling the local doctor that the medical supplies he wants are for an injured rabbit. He can't resist asking if there's any special way to take out a silver bullet (the answer is to twirl around three times before you do it). He does admit to his mom he has a monster in his treehouse, but since he's always making up stories like that, she assumes this is another one. By the time Davy's mom realizes there's an actual wounded man, it's just in time for Eric to save her from her abusive boyfriend and disappear.

In Welcome Back, Frank the Punisher ends up in this situation in his own apartment building. He collapses from multiple bullet wounds and is discovered by his neighbors, Joan the Mouse and Spacker Dave, who end up having to hide him from mobsters that come looking to finish the job. In the 1994 Punisher multi-part storyline, Frank is too ill to understand that hiding in a little girl's treehouse to recover is a terrible idea, because so many people are out for his head. The little girl is mentally disabled so her father, the SHERIFF, doesn't quite catch on right away. Then the Sheriff has Frank beaten for trying to touch his daughter.

Batman in My Basement / int_ec52a5b9	comment	In Transformers (2007), Sam Witwicky is lucky his parents are clueless enough to not notice that what happened to their backyard had to have been done by someone really, really big, rather than being an earthquake... Then again, they knew he was trying to hide something, they just thought it was the girlfriend that he'd brought up into his room.

Batman in My Basement / int_fcfa999b	comment	Haruko in FLCL ends up sharing a bunk bed with the main character while masquerading as a maid. This could be considered an inversion from the standpoint that Naota's father invited Haruko in, despite Naota's complaints, so one of the critical points to this trope (hiding it from his parents) does not play a part. Nor is he particularly trying to help and care for her.
