Revellers took to the streets in all manner of fancy dress last night as the Halloween weekend got underway across the UK.
Partygoers in Leeds took to the streets in a huge range of spooky outfits on Friday, from cowboys and aliens to giant chickens and angels.
Newcastle and Nottingham were also packed with people in weird and wonderful dress as people braved the cold to kick off the weekend ahead of Halloween on Monday.
A packed Birmingham saw the streets full of creative and ghoulish outfits on Friday night as thousands descended on the streets dressed as zombies, witches – and even traffic cones and pumpkins.
Meanwhile, Portsmouth had a host of fancy dress Halloween parties and club nights yesterday, with thousands packing into one venue for a costume extravaganza.
Police were out in force to keep the peace across the country in anticipation of the Hallows Eve revellers having one drink too many on their first night out of the weekend.
Most cities up and down the country remained calm, although scenes became increasingly more chaotic as the night wore on in a number of places as revellers joined in the fun.
The party kept going in Leeds today despite poor weather as hundreds donned their outfits to head to Halloween festivals across the city.
