Youngsters were invited to take part in a trick or treat trail across 13 venues in the town centre on October 27, allowing them to visit as many or as few as they desired to fill up their goody bags with some ghoulish Halloween gifts.

Harry Potter made his way to the Market Square for the occasion, joined by Hagrid, and a host of his Hogwarts teachers including Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall, to join in with wand training, sorting hat sessions and magical story time. 

And, on October 30, a hair-raising Halloween event took place in the market square, offering music from Trax FM, face painting, children's rides and pumpkin carving.

Little ghouls and gremlins were also asked to don their fancy dress for a competition judged by Alex from Trax Fm.
