But the Beaver Works in Leeds are doing it in style with an entire 2-day festival dedicated to spooky goings on and wicked music! On the Saturday Mobo award winner Bizzle will be on stage, Foreign Beggars are headlining the hip hop stage, Leeds breakdancing heroes FreshJive will be making their moves, and there’ll be drum ‘n’ bass from the legendary Nicky Blackmarket, Kenny Ken and MC Logic.

There’s also face painting, a fun fair and prizes for the best costume. And if you aren’t feeling like a zombie, you can start all over again at 1pm on Sunday with music from the winner of the UK heats in the DMC World DJ Championships, DJ Jeppa. Tickets cost £25 for the two days, £22.50 for Saturday or £14.50 for Sunday, and they’re available from Tribe Records, Crash Records and Jumbo Records.

Scares, Speed & Adrenaline

There’s double the excuse to hold onto your date’s hand at a theme park this weekend! Not only can you do white knuckles rides together, but you can snuggle up under the moonlight when the fireworks get underway. Alton Towers, Chessington World Of Adventures, Thorpe Park and Legoland are all holding Halloween themed events this weekend, so get your fancy dress on and prepare for some adrenaline. Legoland is doing an Indiana Jones themed fireworks show and you can hold real snakes and spiders from their creepy crawly collection if you dare!

Get Down To A Dungeon

Dungeons across the UK are holding spine-chilling events this Halloween. The London Dungeon are greeting visitors with a horrifying Halloween forest where Scare Witch Trials are held, Northumberland’s Alnwick Castle where Harry Potter was filmed, has a creepy after-dark tour, whilst visitors to Warwick Castle Dungeons will be greeted by decaying bodies, chanting monks, torture implements, execution and ‘the labyrinth of lost souls’ which is a fantastic scary mirror maze. Back in June, fifteen people fainted and another four vomited after a visit to Warwick Castle Dungeons, so prepare to be scared!

Sup On Some Spirits In A Haunted Pub

Don your fancy dress and join one of the many petrifying pub parties taking place this Halloween weekend. The Old Queens Head, one of the London’s most haunted pubs, is hosting a Halloween Zombie Ball on the 31st, whilst in Newcastle you can join a haunted pub crawl. There are hundreds of pubs in the UK with a resident apparition or a spook that goes bang in the night, and you can find one near you at Mysterious Britain

Halloween On Ice

Get your skates on and head to an ice rink for Halloween on ice. The spooks and spirits will be moving in at Nottingham’s National Ice Centre to give you a spine-tingling night of fun and games, whilst at Swindon’s ice rink there’s a DJ on plus an ipod to be won for the best fancy dress.
