Could be the master cylinder vacuum or a split pipe from the manifold to the master cylinder, check the pipe first.

could be a seized cylinder in brakes,or the hand brake could be siezed,you will need get it checked by garage,if ever a car is not used for a long time,put it in gear,and if on your drive ,or in garage,leave the hand brake off,(as long as your drive not on a slope )
