Customs Dressing Up Halloween Middlesbrough Scary Screaming Witch

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to Halloween Day in 1993 at The Botanic Centre, where Joanna Marsay, a spirited nine-year-old girl, is seen joining in the festive fun. Standing beside her is Dracula himself - Francis Hayes, a dedicated volunteer at the Centre. Dressed in an enchanting witch costume complete with a pointy hat and broomstick, Joanna exudes both excitement and trepidation as she poses next to the eerie vampire. Her wide-eyed expression captures the essence of childhood wonder during this beloved holiday. The image encapsulates the customs and traditions of Halloween during the 1990s – a time when children eagerly embraced dressing up as their favorite spooky characters and ventured out into their neighborhoods for tricks or treats. Middlesbrough's Botanic Centre served as a vibrant backdrop for this memorable occasion. The atmosphere was filled with laughter and screams of delight as youngsters like Joanna immersed themselves in the magical ambiance created by volunteers like Dracula himself. Simon Calgie's skillful photography perfectly captures not only Joanna's infectious enthusiasm but also highlights how Halloween has evolved over time while still maintaining its timeless charm. This snapshot serves as a delightful reminder of our own childhood memories spent celebrating this bewitching holiday.
