A Liverpool mum has transformed her home into a ghoulish house of horror to raise money for Alder Hey.
Katie Griffiths, 24, first gave the front of her home a festive horror theme last year while Liverpool was still in a Tier 3 lockdown.
This year, the house of horror is back even bigger taking up two of Katie's neighbour's gardens in Domingo Grove, Anfield.

The home really comes alive, for want of a better word, at night as the vampires, skeletons and other macabre characters animate while screams fill the air.
All this happens as terrifying characters appear at the bedroom windows of the home, from killer clowns to the shadowy figure of a desperate person trapped inside, banging on the windows for help.
Wesley Braithwaite, 28, is the dad of Katie's two children and makes all the props himself.
He told the ECHO: "The cemetery sign and the archway is all built out of heavy duty insulation you use on the outside of buildings. It's all cut and melted then I paint them.

"The hangman is made out of PVC piping and has a window wiper motor inside to make him move.
"The stocks are made out of scrap wood I found in a skip and then knocked that together. I'll just use anything really, anything I can get my hands on.
"We started doing a Halloween party and it sort of just grew and grew.
"Then last year because they said they were going to cancel Halloween we thought we might as well set something up for the kids to come and look at.
"Everybody asked us to do it again. I wanted to go bigger and better this year so we asked the neighbours either side if they could use their gardens."
The central home in the display belongs to, Katie Griffiths, who last year raised just under £1,500 for Alder Hey Children's Hospital from donations made by passers by who came to enjoy the terrifying spectacle with their kids.
