Eerie glimpse inside abandoned care home with 'human hair' found in envelope

Eerie footage was captured of an abandoned care home which had "human hair" and royal letters inside.

The Southport building has reportedly been partly demolished, however some of the rooms are fully intact inside, including bathrooms, bedrooms and seating areas. Personal memories including photographs and letters were left in the remains.

Footage taken in July by urban explorer Daniel Sims - known as Bearded Reality on social media - shows how the home has continued to rot as the years have gone by. In the 28 minute video uploaded to his YouTube channel, Daniel takes a tour of the premises with friends.

The video begins by Daniel and his friends looking around the building on the outside. It shows smashed windows, fencing and bricks on the floor. After getting inside, the film shows debris all over the floor which appears to have been smashed. A bathroom remains intact with gold taps, rails and toilet roll holders.

As the friends move through the rooms, they stumble on one which shows an untouched tea set including a number of Diamond Jubilee cups. Inside a bag are unused diaries for 2013 and 2014, as well as passport cover holders. The urban explorers also come across old and personal photos and letters from a princess. However, things turn a little strange when the group find what appears to be human hair inside an envelope.

Daniel said: "My camera keeps going. Our cameras are messing about." While looking through more of the items, a noise can be heard from across the room which sounds like clattering.

One of the group said: "I heard that, something just moved. I can feel that cold breeze now coming. I feel the temperature drop now." Another person in the video said they felt "dizzy." Daniel decides to leave the room and continue with the tour and the rest of the group soon follow.
