Halloween horror continued in Perth this weekend as ghosts and ghouls ran amok in North Inch.
The Devil Dash on Sunday morning attracted dozens of runners in fancy dress. They completed a 6.66 km circuit of the park, raising money for the Children’s Hospice Association Scotland (CHAS).
The city centre was decked with spooky props and decorations for a family-theme Halloween event on Saturday night.
The creepy carnival featured live music, performances by magicians and displays by local dance schools. There were also traditional games of apple dooking and pumpkin carving.
Stilt walkers led a colourful procession through the city centre streets.
Crowds also descended on nearby Scone Palace for a spine-tingling sound and lights show.
The three-day event, which was a team-up with the group behind Pitlochry’s Enchanted Forest, was hailed a success by organisers.
Enchanted Forest producer Derek Allan said Scone Palace was an ideal place for a Halloween experience. “It’s gothic and historic,” he said. “Perfect for an other-worldly sound and light show.
“We’ve had great fun working with the Palace team to come up with a unique, interactive and thought provoking tour.”
The All Hallows’ Eve Twilight Illuminations involved a 25-minute walk through the palace’s grounds and graveyard.
