The city's bars have been enjoying big business over the weekend in the run-up to Halloween and that is set to continue right up to the big night itself.
With October 31 being a Monday this year, venues across the city are out to continue the celebrations with themed events to enjoy this Monday in atmospheric surroundings. And attractions range from a fancy dress competition to some inspired Halloween-theme cocktails to help set the mood.
Fancy dress shops in Newcastle have been in huge demand over recent days with a rush on costumes ranging from Ghostbusters to Chucky. And there have been plenty of places to wear them.
