Sick ghouls filmed themselves rifling through killer Tony Martin's possessions at his abandoned farmhouse just weeks after his death, the Mirror can reveal.

The "explorers" posted footage on YouTube showing themselves combing through the dilapidated property where Martin shot dead a teenage burglar. It is the first time anyone has entered the now-notorious Bleak House home where Martin killed Fred Barras, 16, with a pump-action shotgun on August 20 1999.

The reclusive farmer - who died aged 80 in February - refused to step foot in the building after he was jailed for killing Barass and shooting his accomplice. But security has now been stepped-up at the isolated building after so-called "Abandoned World Explorers" broke into the building.

Filmed in the dead of the night, the two vloggers bragged about the 4am expedition saying they were going inside the "real murder house". In a video seen 132,000 times since it was posted in March, a narrator says, "Rest in peace Tony Martin", before he picks through what was left in Martin's home.

Mr Martin's friend, Malcolm Starr, blasted: "It's extremely disrespectful, just weeks after Mr Martin's death. When Mr Martin was alive, people may have been deterred by the fear they may be shot. But since his death, people seem to have gotten a bit braver."

Martin died from the effects of a stroke earlier this year - more than 25 years after Barras and Brendon Fearon, then 29, broke into his home in Emneth Hungate, Norfolk, on August 20, 1999. Barras died at the scene but Fearon survived his injuries. Martin was jailed for murder but released three years later after the conviction was reduced to manslaughter. The case sparked a national debate about homeowners' right to protect their property.

Following his death, executors have been appointed to handle his estate, said to be worth up to £5million. But the fate of Bleak House, 350 acres of land around it, property in Australia, as well as his fleet of cars, is yet to be decided. He had no partner or children but his estranged brother, long-term housekeeper as well as nieces and cousins may all be beneficiaries of his will.

Mr Starr refused to comment when asked who had been appointed executors of Martin's will. But he criticised the two men who entered the property after Martin was laid to rest. In the video, the pair brag: "No-one has been in [here] for more than 26 years."

Wearing a face mask and a cap, one of the two men says: "Now that we're in the house, it's kind of weird. This place got ransacked after the [crime], people said they were going to kill [Martin]." They claim the rubbish-strewn house was "booby-trapped" by Martin while showing images of his wardrobe and clothes.

One man finds a discarded shotgun shell as they start rifling through Martin's letters and left over tins of food. He said: "I actually met Tony and he was a very nice guy." Claiming they "respect Tony", the other says: "He was a bit eccentric". Mr Starr said: "Mr Martin never went into the house after the shooting. We had the house boarded up and shut."

Abandoned World Explorers told the Mirror: "I’m a respectful explorer, the place is wide open I didn’t break in. I’ve seen other explorers going to Tony Martin’s garage where he was actually living. I never once entered or showed that but I’ve seen explorers do it and it’s been shared on Facebook.

"Regarding being disrespectful, I’m very respectful and have a lot of time for Tony - he’s a lovely man. And we chatted for over an hour."

Meanwhile, the Mirror can also reveal that extra 24-hour CCTV and gates have been installed at the estate after thieves broke into a barn next to Bleak House. Martin's beloved 1975 Range Rover was vandalised and stripped for parts. The classic two-door motor is a rare model and is worth up to £150,000 when restored, it is believed.

But vandals smashed the windows, stole sections of the engine and daubed the vehicle in graffiti. Mr Starr said: "After Mr Martin's death, people have come and stolen parts from the vehicle. It had to be sold to stop people stealing from it."

Fearon broke his 20-year silence to tell the Mirror he bore no malice towards the farmer who had left him injured for life. He said: "I have no anger. He did what he had to do to protect himself and his home."

The 54-year-old also revealed he was sad to hear Martin passed away and told how the shooting initially did nothing to deter him from a life of crime. But he insisted he has become a reformed character who dotes on his family.

Fearon, who is still in terrible pain from the wounds to both his legs - with a gaping hole in one - said of his death: "I feel for him and his family. Life's not been kind to me but it was much crueller to little Fred, who lost his life, and his family. But I have never felt any bitterness or animosity towards that farmer.

"I'm not saying he should have shot someone dead, that's wrong, but he felt persecuted by us and we shouldn't have been there. His place had been robbed 10 times before and it was an easy target. I have no anger."

Fearon was told Martin had died by someone who said it was "the best thing for him". But he added: "I didn't feel that. He's got family and friends mourning his loss. If we'd never gone to his place he wouldn't have committed any crime, there would have been no shootings and no killing. He wasn't the only one to blame. He lived to a good old age, it's sad he's gone but it's the end of a chapter."

Police confirmed they had been called twice to Martin's home following his death. The first statement said: "Police received a report of burglary in Emneth Hungate on March 10 2025. The incident is believed to have happened between February 11 2025 and March 8 2025 when an unknown suspect(s) has vandalised a white Range Rover and stolen parts of the vehicle. All lines of enquiry have been exhausted and the case has been closed."

In a separate statement, a spokesperson said: "Police were called to Emneth Hungate at 5.20pm on April 20 2025, following reports that the building had been damaged and a group were trespassing at a property. Officers attended the scene and three men, all aged in their 40s, were spoken to. No further action was taken."

The men who appeared in the video by Abandoned World Explorers are not suggested to have carried out any offences.
