Dorset residents have been making tremendous decorating efforts for Halloween.
As the big day (Tuesday, October 31) draws nearer, Dorset locals have been pulling out all the stops in a spooktacular attempt to bring the magic of Halloween to life.
Many have decorated both the inside and outsides of their homes and businesses with frighteningly brilliant decorations.
Gemma Groves captured a photo of this amazing display which sees two skeletons holding hands in front of a background complete with ghosts, cobwebs and pumpkins.
Plenty of scary pumpkins have also been carved in true Halloween spirit.
Gail Brown went all out with her fantastic pumpkin display, not only was there carving involved, but artwork as well.
Castleman Community Larder have pulled out all the stops with their ghoulish displays.
