WOW! What a turn out. There was thousands of you, and there’s still two nights to go for anyone who missed out.

We had fire, lots of actors, lots of tricks and treats, snakes and amazing fireworks to close off the first night and so many amazing trick or treaters in all your best costumes.

We can not thank you all enough for all the support. Our community never fails to amaze us. Please send us any photos/videos you have taken. We’d love to see them.

See you again tomorrow night 😉

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
It all comes down to this. Today is the day. We have worked so hard to bring a proper Halloween to the local community and can’t wait to see you all tonight. We started planning in January, started building in August and tonight we open the gates.

Great for all the family. We have tricks, treats, lots of prizes and it’s all for a really great cause. All proceeds go to Nottinghamshire Mind.

There are so many houses decorated on Oakes Close and it’s so amazing to see the street come together.
