Many of us would usually be getting our costumes ready to attend a Halloween party but due to the current coronavirus restrictions in place things are different this year.
The Liverpool City Region is placed in Tier 3 on the Government's Covid alart level which means households are banned from mixing and trick or treating is also restricted too.
Thankfully, we still are able to speak to our friends and family through apps like Zoom and for anyone hosting a virtual Halloween get together tonight, our colleagues at the MEN have rounded-up a number of Halloween-themed questions for you to use.
Topics include horror movies, general knowledge and family-friendly. We've included the answers to all the questions listed below them too.
Let us know how you get on in the comments below.
