Firstly, I just want to send my condolences to Stephen Gately and his family and friends. What a huge and tragic shock! Stephen was a top entertainer and had many fans across the country and what a shame it is for him to die at such a young age.

I am starting to get excited about getting the house decorated for Halloween. I am thinking about being a bit creative with pumpkins this year, most year’s I leave them uncarved. However, I came across Walyou.com which has given me HUGE inspiration to carve all sorts of characters – well have a go anyway. They have pumpkins carved into Star Wars characters, Horror movie stars and randomly some geeky faces. I’ll keep you updated with how I get on.

The Daily Mail reported on Christina Aguilera taking her son Max to a Pumpkin fair in America. The USA really do go to town on Halloween, sometimes I think us Brits should make it another holiday each year too. We tend to get a bit ‘scrooge’ about the whole thing. It would be great to hear about any Halloween parties you are holding.

Make sure you enter our Halloween competition on our website where you could get the chance to win £25 worth of Poundland vouchers to spend on anything in store. It’s easy too as all you have to do is find how many bats there are in the picture and submit your answer!

Films are already out at the cinema to get us into the scary spirit too. I went to see The Final Destination in 3D at the weekend – it was brilliant! It was in typical Final Destination format, but the 3D glasses worked wonders and really made the film come to life. Even though I hate to admit my eyes were shut throughout most of it! The BBC has reported the film has gone straight to the top of the North American box office chart and has made an estimated $28.3m, mental! The makers of Halloween is following in its footsteps and creating a third film in 3D. According to DigitalSpy.co.uk it is not released until 2010. So, spooky film fans you will have to be patient before getting a chance to experience the action…
