Boozy Brits pull on their spooky fancy dress and hit the town to celebrate Halloween

BOOZY Brits haunted towns up and down the country last night as they got into the Halloween spirit.

One group of pals looked menacing in masks as a ‘blood-splattered’ drinker pretended to terrorise pub goers with a huge ‘zombie knife’.

Trudging through the night, one convict appeared to make a bid for freedom as as glamourous bunnies and devils walked by.

Two pals could be seen clowning around in creepy wigs as zombies roamed the packed-out city centre.

The Joker was also out and about as the booze kicked in for thousands up and down the country.

It comes just two nights ahead of Halloween on Sunday, October 31, with drinkers expected to celebrate the night all weekend.

Police are already begging shops not to sell flour and eggs to under-18s for fear youngsters will pelt homes and cars.

In an open letter, Wiltshire Police’s assistant chief constable Deb Smith said: “As we approach Halloween, I am writing to raise awareness of the potential increase in under 18s purchasing items such as eggs and flour from your store for the purposes of causing anti-social behaviour.

“In previous years, we have received reports of young people throwing eggs and flour at buildings and homes of unsuspecting victims.

“While we appreciate that Halloween is an opportunity to have fun, it can also be a frightening time for others and we kindly ask that you play your part in highlighting this issue to your staff so they can remain extra vigilant during this period.”

He added: “We can’t stop shops from selling items, but we politely ask that you question yourself why a young person, or group of youngsters, want to buy boxes of eggs and bags of flour.”

Others looked glamourous bunny ears and devil horns
