Residents entering into the spooky spirit have been hard at work decorating their properties for this evening.

Marie Howe, in Newton Poppleford, is no exception and her son Aaron believes her house, off Back Lane, has 'won Halloween'.

He said: "I think mother just won Halloween, be sure to pay her a visit.

"Every year she tries to go all out for Halloween for the children. This year is absolutely brilliant."
