Retro Halloween is as colourful as ever in these photos with all the make-up, drama, costumes and pumpkins for the spooky season.
Gone are the carved turnips (remember those?) and black bin liners for witches costumes - by the time the earliest of these photos were taken in 1997, the bar had been raised for celebrating Halloween in Blackpool. Are you pictured?
