Thousands enjoy Scary Derry Halloween celebrations

One of the biggest crowds ever packed Derry city centre this evening for the annual Halloween celebrations.

Tens of thousands, many in fancy dress, lined both sides of the River Foyle for a spectacular fireworks display which was preceded with the River of Gods parade.

The party is set to continue into the wee small hours as revellers pack the city’s pubs and clubs with many also attending Halloween-themed house parties.
