Two women have described a “frightening” ordeal at a Liverpool hotel that left them unable to sleep.
Jessica Sims, 22, and Ellie-May Ramsey, 19, travelled from the Isle of Man earlier this month to stay at the Adelphi Hotel after reading a Liverpool ECHO article where two ghost hunters claimed spirits swore at them on recording.
Once Jess and Ellie checked into room 179, they began exploring the building for their YouTube channel Jess and Ellie.
As they recorded, the pair said the hotel "didn't feel right" and they kept "feeling people going through them".
Jess told The Liverpool ECHO : "We checked out the room and one of the first things we noticed is that it kept going from really warm to really cold. There were points where we would both just shiver and get goosebumps for no reason.
"There was also a gunshot going through the window from the inside, which was creepy."
Jess and Ellie then walked around the hotel with a spirit box and EMF reader to see if they could communicate with any spirits.
Jess claimed she kept seeing shadows as they walked around the hotel, while Ellie said she didn't see anything but "felt people going right through her".
Jess said: "The only way I can describe it is there were these big and dark shadows I saw in front, at the side and behind me and when I did everything went cold."
Ellie continued: "I didn't see anything but I can say 100% that you would go from being freezing cold, to normal and to being boiling very quickly.
"It was also eerily quiet but the camera would be going mad."
The girls, who have been interested in ghost hunting for around three months, also complained of smelling "rotten meat" when they were walking around some of the corridors.
Jess added: "I have looked it up since then and a smell of rotten meat is to do with poltergeists and demons, it was frightening. I couldn't stop thinking about the smell for days."
Once back at the room they used the spirit box to speak to ghosts within the room and said they were "shocked" when a male spirit replied saying "you b***h".
Jess asked the spirits if they would like her to turn off the camera and another one replied saying "don't try".
At another point another voice is heard saying "that's it, silly girls" over the spirit box.
Ellie said: "When we were in the room we could hear a girl and a boy's voice. The girl was really aggressive, especially when we went over the the window and the boy seemed like he was just speaking to us because we were there.
"It was an amazing experience in The Adelphi, I wouldn't stay there again though unless I was forced to."
Jess added: "It was a good trip and we got exactly what we were looking for. We didn't actually stay there overnight and we did have an apartment we went back to.
"It was really scary and we struggled to sleep, so we slept well when we got back home.
"We want to come back to Liverpool again to go to the abandoned hospital."
