A WOMAN was left stunned after finding rows of sharp razors all over the walls of a Glasgow hotel.
Ashley Davies was shocked to find the “sinister” space on the upper floor of Grand Central Glasgow hotel today.
She had asked staff to show her around and was warned there was something “creepy” upstairs.
Ashley asked to see but admitted she wasn’t prepared for the razorblade walls.
Taking a video of the room she shared it to followers on Twitter who were also left shocked by the discovery.
I’ve been exploring the derelict upper floor of the fancy Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow and came across the “razor room”. The staff don’t know who did this or how long it’s been like this. pic.twitter.com/sKwMvYd0H0

She said: “I’ve been exploring the derelict upper floor of the fancy Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow and came across the ‘razor room’.
“The staff don’t know who did this or how long it’s been like this.”
Ashley told the Glasgow Times: “I asked the concierge if he could show me the unused upper floor because I’m nosy, and he warned me there was something quite creepy there.
“I did not expect anything quite as sinister as this!”
It is understood the room was a previous art installation from 1999 which remains in an unused space of the popular hotel.
It is believed the project was by NVA, a Glasgow charity that created public art in Glasgow for 26 years before closing in 2018.
The Grand Central Hotel refused to comment when contacted by the Glasgow Times.
The IHG Hotel group has also been contacted for comment.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
