Don’t scream at the cost of kids’ fancy dress, try our tips for scares at a steal…

With our tricks and treats you can produce something spooktacular with items you have lying around at home.

Leaving you quids in to enjoy those Halloween adventures with your little terrors in the new Dacia Jogger seven-seater family car.

Too ghoul for school

School trousers too short? Cut the bottom from an old pair making jagged edges, let your little ones get creative with an old T-shirt or too small PE shirt, and hey presto – zombie school child/scary pirate!

Gore-geous

Any costume can be elevated with Halloween make-up using old eyeshadow – reds, blues and purple can create great ghouls, bruises, blood and gore.

Wet your make-up brush for an intense finish.

Creation Stations

There are plenty of ways you can decorate the house without having to fork out.

Make scary spiders from offcuts of wool and pipe cleaners or try making some hanging ghosts with old sheets.

Earn your stripes

We’ve all got an old striped top in the wardrobe – it’s a great base for an escaped convict, a zombie or a ghost pirate.

Let kids go wild with fake blood and face paint – when it’s over, chuck it in the wash!

Getting wiggy with it

If you have wigs from previous years, but want something new – switch it up!

Plain white wig? Spray it half black – Cruella de Vil!

Or dust a black wig white to make grey for an eerie ghostly finish.

Throw on a wig to transform your look

We have thrift off!

Hit a local charity shop for bargains to throw together.

Look out for sparkly black or purple, or even leopard print.

Or you might luck out and find a fully kitted out costume for a snip of the price.

Black magic

Use the plain black clothing you have!

Black skirts, jeans, leggings and plain long-sleeve tops are a great base for witches, bats, cats, spiders – add a face mask or some funky Halloween headgear.
