The Halloween Lantern Carnival came to Liverpool on Sunday
29th October 2017 and thousands turned out to witness the event. The
parade set off from Pilgrim Street just after 6pm travelling along Hardman
Street and Leece Street to finish at the Albert Dock at around 7.15pm.
Crowds of People lined the route with hundreds gathered
around St Luke's Church and Bold Street with many families dressing up and
bringing their own lanterns.
Hundreds of underworld inhabitants, dressed in the finest
Halloween disguise, including illuminated giant beasts, skeletons and ghostly
dancing apparitions, deathly street bands and other monstrosities crawled up
through the cracks and went partying through Liverpool’s streets like there was
no tomorrow.
Lady Laudanum, Grande Dame of the Underworld and CEO of Bare
Bones Tours plc was herself heading up the carnival parade, in an unprecedented
appearance this side of the River Styx.
Picture Liverpool was there to witness this super spooky
event and to bring you some photographs just in case you missed it...
