cheers @RichardHorrocks, this worked for me web3.eth.getStorageAt('0xC05B6465914841FcFf642b6f9aDE6982b8B92175', 1, (e,v) => console.log(web3.utils.hexToAscii(v)));

If you're running a full node, you could read the data direct from the levelDB state database, but that's even more difficult than using an RPC method like getStorageAt().

I think you'll need to run web3.utils.hexToAscii() on the returned result - > web3.eth .getStorageAt('0xC05B6465914841FcFf642b6f9aDE6982b8B92175', 0) .then(result => { console.log(web3.utils.hexToAscii(result)); });

Yes, this is it. I was thinking getStorageAt would be the way but wasn't sure of it. One last question though, I am getting 0x6a6f657900000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000008 when I do web3.eth.getStorageAt('0xC05B6465914841FcFf642b6f9aDE6982b8B92175', 1); but I do not know how to decode it. Any tips? I tried hex decode but doesn't work. Maybe I am missing something here.
