Two students, Misses Wendy Gordon, left, and Alene Sherson, right, decide that witches’ noses are just the trick for wearing to a Halloween party, after examining the stock at Delarno’s Magic Centre in Chancery Lane yesterday. At rear is Mr Burns Scandrett, the shop's owner, disguised as
Frankenstein. Yesterday was Halloween, a traditional celebration held annually on the eve of All Saints’ Day. In the last two weeks, Mr Scandrett has sold 200 witches’ noses, 150 masks, and more than 400 Dracula teeth. Also popular were black plastic fingernails and Dracula blood.
