Perhaps these 9 frighteningly good photos from the Sunderland Echo archives will give you some inspiration.
We have got ghosts, witches and the odd giant pumpkin or two from events at St Benet’s School, Saks hairdressers, Rainton Meadows and Asda at Leechmere.
Have a look and see if there’s a trick or treat outfit you loved from the past.
