Strewn with soft toys, filthy bedding and women’s clothes - this is the squalid basement ‘cell’ where cops believe kidnapped Jayme Closs could have been kept prisoner for 88 days.

The secret den complete with a scruffy mattress and cuddly stuffed pig is beneath alleged abductor Jake Thomas Patterson’s tumbledown forest cabin in rural Gordon, Wisconsin.

A stash of kids’ backpacks, including one with panda ears, can be seen piled up in one corner of the 8ft by 8ft room in images obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com.

Police sources say investigators are zeroing in on the creepy lair as they try to establish the exact spot where 13-year-old Jayme was imprisoned after Patterson allegedly slaughtered her parents and snatched her.

They are also understood to have examined an adjacent basement compartment, a former wine cellar, which was the only room in the house which had its curtains drawn when officers arrived Thursday to search the ramshackle property following Jayme’s remarkable escape.

Patterson, 21, is believed to have lived at the isolated woodland home until his arrest on charges of kidnapping and intentional homicide.

The surrounding 2.5 acre lot is littered with old cars, rusty bikes and an assortment of junk, while a sign saying 'Patterson's Retreat' greets visitors as they approach the two-story, $110,000 dwelling.

Twinkling Christmas decorations are still strung across the yard and many of the lights are still on inside the wooden house - suggesting the occupant left in a hurry and didn't have a chance to return.

Chillingly, a mound of trash strewn beside a garage includes an empty box of 80 adult Member's Mark diapers.

Lying nearby in the snow are empty bottles of sugary alcoholic drinks such as cranberry and lime Smirnoff Ice, Henry's Hard Soda and black cherry White Claw, as well as discarded bags of chips.

What looks like a recently baked and eaten tray of pasta has been dumped outside.

Inside the main living room is a half-finished game of Monopoly and a book entitled 'U.S. Armed Forces Survival Guide'

A hammer, a flashlight, a scouring pad, scissors and a spray bottle of cleaning fluid are piled on a table

The cabin itself is filled with an assortment of tatty old furniture, from rocking chairs to fans and years-old televisions and stereos

Investigators think it's possible that Jayme could have spent time in different areas of the house before being bundled into the basement whenever Patterson thought someone was visiting
