A shark that looks like a zombie, as well as other dead and decaying sea creatures, have been captured in eerie new footage of an abandoned aquarium.
The video was taken by a pair of urban explorers who broke into an aquarium in Spain. The video was posted to the internet by a French woman who goes by the name of Juj, along with several shorter clips on her TikTok.
A video shows the rotting remains of a small shark inside a broken display case. The size of the glass box suggests that the shark was already dead when it was put on display.
After the case broke and the shark was exposed, the body began to decay, giving it a zombie-like appearance.
The shark corpse may have been left behind because the aquarium was damaged and all living animals were moved to new aquariums.

The pair found two sea stars that had been left behind, but unlike the other animals, they had not begun to decay because they had been completely dried out before being put on display.
A replica of a giant squid made from foam has fallen to the floor after hanging from the ceiling. The aquarium used to display giant squid, but they were removed before the building was condemned.

The location of the aquarium has not been disclosed by the explorers to prevent other explorers from visiting the site and to avoid being caught. The aquarium was closed in Spain after a wave damaged the building.
A freak wave of this size hit Spain's northwest coast in January of last year, causing significant damage, according to Spanish news site The Local.
