Because Halloween itself falls on a Tuesday this year, are there any related events the weekend before?

Above.

I'll have a look on Google, but as I've got that Dracula stuff I wore last year, I wondered if there was anything in the Sheffield area? I know they don't do Fright Night in Town any more, the Council ran out of funding for it.

The only suggestion I have is to wander around the Town Centre a little closer to the date, and see if any of the venues are having a theme night.

I do want to do a Halloween Big Geek Meet again we usually do it in Manchester, but might do one in Birmingham for fun cause lately I've just been staying in the house on Halloween

Manchester would be nearer for those of us who live in Yorkshire :D

Corporation are doing a theme night on the 21st of October, I wouldn't attend a Nightclub on a Saturday night though, nor would Dad let me.

Even if you do go clubbing I would avoid Halloween nights like the plague, either jam packed or they barely let people in so the queues are like miles long. University student unions usually call dibs on nightclubs anyway during Halloween. When I was younger I used to go on a Halloween walk. It took place at the reservoir near me and it would be all dark, we used torches and lanterns to see there would be actors dressed as spooky stuff trying to scare us and yeah... I am not sure if there is anything like that or maybe a scare maze or something?

Rother Valley used to do a Halloween Event. Don't know if they still do.

I'll have a look, even that's a pain to get to for non drivers though.

Well I found an event in Town on the 28th of October, Halloween Family Party at the Quays Hotel in Town, starts at 3 PM.

And it's not too expensive, about £16.
