The best way to enjoy Halloween is to attend one of the many pre organised events around Devon and Cornwall.

Please respect others on the night, especially the old and vunerable. Remember people in scary costumes at you door can be very intimidating and cause distress.

Have a great night and enjoy yourselves.
