THERE was something strange in the neighbourhood this weekend as the borough marked Hallowe’en.

Fancy dress, partying and pumpkins all played their part in the weekend of the spooks and scares.

Our photo gallery shows some of the creativity shown across the borough as people marked October 31, All Hallows Eve.

We’ll have more pictures in Friday’s Wokingham Paper – look out for it in all good newsagents for just 50p. 

Did you dress up to go trick or treating? We’d love to see your costumes. Email your photos to [email protected].
