Manx Radio meets the homeowners going an extra spooky mile with the decorations

It's 31 October - which, of course, means it's Hop Tu Naa on the Isle of Man.

This evening children will be knocking on doors and singing Jinny the Witch and, hopefully, walking away with some sweets...

But it's not just the little ones having fun, as homeowners have been getting creative ahead of the annual tradition.

First up, Robert Feery's home on Hillside Avenue in Douglas:

Next up - Carlos Martinez and his home on the Reayrt Mie estate in Ballasalla.

Chanelle has been speaking with his children, Victoria and Samuel to find out what they're going as this year:
