Traders donned fancy dress and opened late to provide spook-tacular fun for more than 300 costumed kids hitting High Street to eat, drink and be scary.
Around a dozen shops took part, opening up from 6pm to 7.30pm last Wednesday to give the young revellers a fang-tastic evening to remember.

Butcher’s AJ Learmonth is one of the businesses that takes part.
“We’ve done it right from the start, and it’s getting bigger and bigger every year,” said proprietor Alan Learmonth.
“It’s really good for the kids. It’s all free for them, and we shut the High Street off so it’s safe.

“It’s gone from strength to strength. It would be really great if all the shops in the High Street were involved. Hopefully that will happen one year.”
