Date published: 06 August 2011

Movie buffs are being asked to vote for their favourite horror film to be shown at the Whitefield Halloween Festival.

It could be a classic such as “Nosferatu” or “An American Werewolf in London”, or a more recent film such as “28 Days Later” or even “Shaun of the Dead”.

The winning films will be shown in The White Room in Whitefield during the festival, which takes place on 30 and 31 October. To cast your vote, go to www.halloweenfest.org.uk  

The Whitefield Halloween Festival (30/31 October) has been organised by Bury Council’s town centres team in partnership with Whitefield Business Group.

The weekend’s fun includes ghoulish tales, pumpkin carving, lantern parades, monster masks, and a 12 ft fully animatronic dragon led by the Goblin Queen. Expect a minstrels corner, creepy animals, bats, falconry, archery, tarot, and a hog roast, plus a variety of stalls selling Fairtrade products/clothing and Halloween paraphernalia. And a Mythical Creatures display.
