Bar Talk: 'Will you be doing anything for Halloween?'
John Ellis, Crown Inn, Oakengates, Shropshire:
We’re having a Halloween party that will also be an engagement party for two of our regulars. If it falls in midweek, it can be a bit flat. But because this year it’s a Saturday, we’re really going for it.
Paul Egerton, Jolly Sailor, St Albans, Hertfordshire:
Everyone gets dressed up and it’s a good laugh. This year is especially good because it’s on a Saturday and everyone will be in the mood to celebrate. We’re hosting a Halloween karaoke.
Claire Alexander, Ebrington Arms, Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire:
It’s not a big deal at all for us. Some locals are scary enough without them being dressed up!
Tim Hore, Victoria Inn, Salcombe, Devon
We’re hosting a Halloween story-telling for children, where everyone will be dressed up. We like to put something special on.
