Hastings Voodoo Festival in Pictures

People out and about in Hastings Old Town for Halloween on Sunday may have encountered a procession of scary costumed characters carrying a coffin through the streets.

It was the return of the Fat Tuesday Hastings Voodoo Festival and the procession was accompanied by Doc Savage and brass musicians from the New Orleans Second Line group. Also taking part was Hastings giant Hannah and her crew.

The event started at the Lord Nelson pub in the Bourne with the procession moving on to The Dragon Bar and then the Albion, in George Street, after pausing for a display at Butlers Gap.
