HALLOWEEN TREATS

BY EMDAD RAHMAN

Halloween 2006 saw vamps, frankeinsteins, strange creatures and kids with pale faces swarmed through the streets of Barking in search of sugar and other tooth-rotting delicacies.











Jag Jeevan Singh 11, Sukhver 11, Balraj 12 and Juan 11 who attend Barking Abbey and Eastbury Schools enjoyed a happy halloween. The three youngsters dressed in ghoulish gear enjoyed an evening of trick or treating as part of the Tuesday evening Halloween celebrations. Generational and cultural differences or not, locals seem to enjoy Halloween. "It's not about being scary," said Juan. "It's about having a good time. It brings out happiness in all of us."
