Spooky season in Liverpool is finally here!
But we’ve all been there, at the same boring pres in some random person’s kitchen who happens to know one of your flatmates because they went to a lecture together once back in freshers week.
Instead of being stuck at the same old flat parties, why not use Halloween as a chance to get out there and explore the city with your new mates? This list should give you some spine-chillingly exciting and unique ways to celebrate Halloween in Liverpool this year!
