There will be a colourful array of ghostly characters including a three metre tall Dracula, fire-poi (flaming ropes which make pretty patterns) , large puppets, a giant four metre witch, Olympic skeletons, lanterns made from re-cycled bottles, as well as many people in fancy dress.

The Arts Officer for Moyle District Council said: “ Dracula will be making a special appearance at this year’s parade and there will be prizes for best fancy dress including junior, teenage and adult categories, so everyone is invited to come along in costume and enjoy the evening.”
