Paul O’Grady asked to move after finding a “scary” and “cursed” object in the garden

Paul O’Grady fans urged him to relocate after finding a rather sinister object while gardening.

The radio host and comedian found a glass jar filled with eerie liquid and what appeared to be a braided lock of hair, leaving fans disgusted and worried about his safety.

She shared her sad finding on Instagram, saying the hair looked red but may have faded over the years.

Paul added: “I haven’t opened it and I’m not going to, in fact I’m going to bury it again because it’s not only weird but also a little scary. Any idea what it is?”

Fellow announcer Zoe Ball said it looked like something straight out of Tales of the Unexpected and could “bring a good harvest.”

Celebrity chef Andi Oliver said, “Shit! Yeah, put it down quick! Ouch!”

Another fan assumed it was a gut, while another curious fan urged Paul, 66, to take a DNA test.

More helpful comments came in, including one person who said it may have been a Wicca tradition to bury the hair of a deceased person, as “he always kept their spirit.”

“I would bury him again,” they insisted.

Another person simply said “put your house up for sale” and another chimed in: “It’s a witch bottle, buried to protect the occupants of the house and serve as a protective amulet.

It may be full of urine and some alcohol. It’s basically a spell in a bottle.

Paul then posted an update for his many followers. He said, “Thanks for all your comments on this, whatever it is, I buried it in the woods. Tonight it’s a supermoon and tomorrow is my birthday, so I’m taking no chances!”
