Inside abandoned home with overturned chairs and piano decorated with old photos

A home which has been abandoned by its owners for more than a decade has been hiding a spooky secret.

Though the ceilings of this dilapidated property may be caving in, many of the original features remain intact inside the stone farmhouse which lies in the county of Perth and Kinross in Scotland.

The downstairs bedroom contains a piano decorated with old photographs and ornaments leaving us to wonder at the musician who would have played its keys in this remote location.

Another image gives us a glimpse into the cluttered kitchen which is covered in debris from the crumbling ceiling.

Old luggage, overturned chairs and oil lamps can be spotted throughout the property, all covered in rubble and dust.

Grant Vincent is the urban explorer who captured these creepy photographs whilst on his travels in Scotland.

"I came across the abandoned house whilst driving in the countryside," he said.

"It is situated in the central belt of Scotland surrounded by rolling hills and fields full of sheep.

"The property was not difficult to enter as there was no door, only a small metal bit of fencing that I assume was propped up to deter sheep from entering.

"Inside the abandoned house I felt eeriness along with excitement and anticipation of what I might come across."

Despite the squalor that lies within the property, the upper level also contained a few surprises.

In an upstairs bedroom, women's clothing from days gone by can still be found imposingly hanging in the wardrobe.

Outside the property is a derelict barn complete with a decrepit tractor.

Though Grant may be an urban explorer, who shares his finds on his Instagram page this property made him face his unexpected fear.

"The most shocking thing about the exploration, I must say, was the clear presence of rats in the property, although I suppose I shouldn't really be shocked but I have a fear of rats," he said.

Despite this encounter, the experience was still positive for Grant.

"What I love most about my images is the fact I get to capture a little bit of what life used to be like for people and I get to share that with other people," he said.

"I also love sharing my explores with people who might not have a chance to get out and do this sort of thing for whatever reason.

"People who view my images either online or from me showing them tend to give very positive feedback, telling me the shots are 'epic', 'great', 'amazing' and of course ' fire emoji.'

"People tell me I have real talent for capturing images and often people will give me locations as they feel I will capture something fantastic.

"It's really quite overwhelming sometimes with the feedback I get and I can't thank the people who support and follow my work enough."
