Ghost trains, arts and crafts workshops and fireworks displays are all on offer to mark the festival, which has its roots in the ancient Celtic celebration Samhain.
Here are a few highlights of what spooky celebrations are being held.

"Allhallowtide or Hallowmas is a three day festival of Western Christian observances to remember the dead that includes All Saints Eve (Halloween), All Saints’ Day (All Hallows) and All Souls Day," she said.
