Dale Davies, from Nanango, brought along his little “friend” to add to the fun

November 5, 2024

Heavy rain – and a blackout which affected more than 6000 Ergon Energy customers in the Nanango area – could not stop ghouls, ghosties, witches and warlocks from coming out on Halloween.

The annual event, organised by Cr Jane Erkens and a bunch of volunteers from The Shed and NaTDA, attracted a smaller crowd than usual last Thursday night to Little Drayton Street, Nanango, but there was still plenty of haunting music and creepy costumes.

Cr Erkens praised the kids for still dressing up despite the obvious difficulties.

“How brave of you to come out after that big storm and no power at home!” she said.

Trophies were awarded in “scariest dance” competitions (they did the Monster Mash!) and there were also bags of lollies for all the children who attended.

The free family event was sponsored by Heritage Community Bank and Nanango Real Estate.
