About This Video
This video was uploaded to the YouTube channel Dead Air in October 2023.
Originally built as the Liverpool Seaman’s Orphan Institute in 1874, homing hundreds of poor children from Victorian Liverpool.
After WWII, the orphanage was closed, and the building reopened as a mental asylum, treating people with severe mental health conditions, as well as providing shocking procedures in attempts to ‘cure’ people. Notorious killers were also brought here to be mentally assessed before being determined whether they can be sent to mainstream prisons. One of those being the notorious Ian Brady, the moors murderer.
This building is now a time capsule of all that history.

About Dead Air
Dead Air was formed in 2009 by University friends Rob Davies and Chris Felton, originally as a radio show in Newcastle based FM station, NE1fm. The show originally was based around encouraging callers to talk about their own experiences and opinions on the paranormal, as well as monthly live broadcasts from some of the North East's scariest places.
Chris works alongside Alan Robson, the host of Metro Radio's Nightowls and Sky TV's 'Scariest Places on Earth', and plans to make a full return to the show in 2021. Rob has been a radio presenter with NE1fm on the music scene, but is now 100% committed to creating paranormal content for the channel.
