Halloween is fast approaching and readers have wasted no time in starting to send in their spooky snaps - and there is still plenty of time to add yours.

Ghosts and ghouls, witches and wizards are getting ready to spook us all on Saturday – and we want to put a spell on you by sharing your scary pictures.

Coronavrius means Halloween will be different this year, with many events or parties unable to go ahead as previously hoped.

However, many of you may still be making the most of the opportunity to dress up in frightening fancy dress and magical make-up, while plenty of children will have already been using half-term to get into a ghoulish mood by carving something spectacular.

Or perhaps you've decorated the house both inside and out - we'd love to see what you've done to give your home a spooktacular look!

Whatever you're doing to mark Halloween, we'd love to see your spine-tingling pictures and share them with our readers. You can scroll through those already submitted below.

Whether you’ve been decorating your house, carving a pumpkin, or have some spooky plans for the weekend, send us your scary shots via the link below and we’ll do our best to publish as many as we can in print and online.
