Our readers have been busy carving and decorating pumpkins in preparation for Halloween. 

Here are some of their spooky snaps. 

Danique Taylor, 23, of Glendale road burnham, decorated these pumpkins with her family.  

She said: "We did four because we wanted one each, mine is the Tardis, as I'm a big Doctor Who fan, my partner's is Superman, my eldest son loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and my youngest has the Toy Story alien. 

"They each took just under an hour, my eldest boy helped to paint them."
