David and Susan Mills it was like a scene from a horror movie, there was so much blood, then we spotted a body slumped on the stairs next to the lift.

David and Susan Mills were halfway through a week in Majorca and getting ready for a night out when they heard a raised voices from the corridor of their apartment complex, followed by a scream and a thud.Thinking it was drunken youths, the South Shields couple continued getting ready, and it was only when they stepped into the corridor 20 minutes later that they saw blood splattered across the walls and a man lying face down on the stairway."We couldn't believe it," said Mrs Mills. "It was like a scene from a horror movie, there was so much blood, then we spotted a body slumped on the stairs next to the lift."The couple, from Gainsborough Avenue, Whiteleas, South Shields, had been staying at the Los Palomos complex in Palma Nova, when their holiday nightmare began on Saturday, October 4.
Mrs Mills, 46, said: "I was putting my make up on and David was brushing his teeth. We could hear a commotion outside, but it was all foreign and we couldn't understand what they were saying."Then we heard a man scream and a thud, we were going to go outside but we though it was probably just drunken kids messing about, so carried on getting ready."The couple, who booked their trip through Going On Holiday Ltd, then left their apartment on the second floor and made their way to the lifts."The corridor outside our apartment was very dark, so you had to switch lights on as you went along it," said Mr Mills, 51, a taxi driver. "But when we put the first light one, we saw blood everywhere up the walls. We carried on walking and found the man lying there."The couple then heard shouts from the floor above saying "no touch, no touch". After a brief conversation with the person who called out to them, Mr Mills established that the emergency services had been called, and at that point pushed his wife into the lift.
