Goulish night at Caistor fire Station

Tricks and treats for all ages were celebrated at Caistor Fire Station, in a specially themed Halloween evening, aptly entitled ‘Come if you dare station scare’ .

Hundreds of visitors braved the weather to attend the event, where they discovered live actors throughout the station to add to the drama. Visitors seemed surprised and delighted with the amount of effort put into the event and clearly no stone was left unturned as could be seen from the eight foot yeti , the skeletal remains of a firefighter -still suited and booted, a chainsaw wielding Freddy Krueger, a nightmarish nun and creepy clown to name but a few (or should we say phew).

The fire station itself was converted into a ghost train type adventure land with cleverly constructed tunnels, concealing more goulish goings on accompanied by eery soundtracks adding to the drama.

Thanks to the generosity of guests some £380 was raised on the evening  for The Fire Fighters Charity with further pledges been made since via social media.
