Ghoulish fun with plenty of treats at Halloween party
From witches and wizards to superheroes and clowns, children got dressed up for fun and games at the Hampton Halloween Party on Saturday night.
There were plenty of treats for the children - and not many tricks - with entertainment, music and food and drink all on offer.

Emma Hampson, who organised the party with husband Jeffrey, said: “It was a great event, It is always good to see the community come together like this.
“When we held it last year, it was just a trial run, if you like - this year we wanted it to be bigger and better, and we did that.
“It was a bit overwhelming to see it all. It was very special.”

Emma said: “I want to thank everyone who came along, and everyone who helped, from Tesco to Allensis Special Occasion Services - everyone who helped or donated time, items or services.
“I would like to thank Hampton Leisure Centre and their staff letting us put on the event.
