Maybe she's like Dido in the Eminem video and she was never allowed to go into the basement and see what kind of crap he was uup to?
24 years without going downstairs in your own house doesnt seem too realistic though. Especially when looking for your missing daughter...I think the first thing I would do is check around the house...like every damn corner and behind every door (even the new non-suspicious soundproof keyless entry one).

From the sounds of it this man was pretty sadistic and controlling. I personally find it hard to believe that the woman was oblivious to this, but it is possible that the husband simply terrified her into not going anywhere near the basement. Maybe he gave food/got rid of garbage while she was out for the day.
Still the whole thing is extremely bizzare.
edit: the above poster answered it.
also pictures of the rooms where they were kept:
