It’s coming up to that spooky time of year when we put on our capes and fangs and celebrate Halloween…
Americans are renowned for taking Halloween very seriously. Don’t despair if you live elsewhere – there’s an abundance of scary events shaking up a town near you.
Take a look at what we’ve found:
Halloween Party at the ICA - London
Brush the cobwebs from your favourite Halloween outfit and see if you can win the first prize for best costume. Sip Halloween-themed cocktails and then settle down to watch a classic horror film. How does the Ring, Theatre of Blood and A Bloody Aria sound for starters?
