Children across the island will be dressing up as witches to celebrate Hop-tu-Naa today.
The Celtic festival of the New Year pre-dates Halloween.
As darkness falls, kids will knock-on neighbours doors with lanterns and sing the traditional songs hoping for treats in return.
Parents are being encouraged to accompany them at all times.
