Did your gran-gran do a lot of cooking? My meemaw would use her basement for storing all kinds of non-perishables, namely fruits and vegetables in jars. So it could be that.

also it's possible that your grandma was a prolific serial killer and stashed some of the remains in the cellar, creating a distinct odor

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
It's mildew op, it's from the increased moisture thanks to george bush and co

Building codes have been updated to include some kind of air/vapor barrier underneath the foundation, better sealing them from moisture and (fart) gasses.

My basement smelled like grandma’s basement after the toilet down there went volcano because a backflow valve on the street stopped doing whatever it was supposed to.

Doesn’t smell like that anymore though.

It ain't a basement unless it smells of radon, mothballs and carbon monoxide.

the real answer is moth balls. you see, when our grandparents were around, they would take these weird smelly balls and put them in stuff so moths owuldn't eat it. for some reason moths eating your slacks aren't a problem anymore but i assure you, they were

moth balls are made of napthalene or 1,4 dichlorobenzene. that's the smell of your grandma house

That smell is guilt and resentment OP. Your parents and grandparents had decades to let it build to peak levels: just give it time and you'll get there someday.
