"Halloween gets bigger every year, with more people getting involved and the costumes getting more extravagant and, indeed, scary.

"We’re looking forward to welcoming families for a day full of fun and frights, so we’d encourage everyone to get planning their outfits now to be within a chance of scooping the top prize."
