The spookiest day of the year is upon us with many choosing to spend their evening consuming excessive amounts of sugar. 

And it seems a baby tiger living in Magdeburg Zoo is also celebrating Halloween. 

The young animal was pictured searching for snacks hidden inside a pumpkin. 

But the cute feline won’t be the only animal in the zoo tucking into the festive fruit.

They’ll be served to all the animals after this weekend’s pumpkin carving festivities. 

As well as zoos, this Autumn farms have been reborn as gourd wonderlands with fields transformed into cinematic sweeps of orange, yellow and green. 

But not all patches are created equal. 

Following the hottest summer since records began, and four successive heatwaves Britain’s pumpkin crop has grown fruit weeks ahead of schedule.

Many frustrated farmers elected to leave their pumpkins in the field. But heavy rain since August has caused the pumpkins to rot – turning the yield into something approaching a field of screams. 

Apt for Halloween, but very bad for business. 

But Tucked away in the countryside, one pumpkin patch boasts a huge 50 varieties and is half the price of viral Tulleys.

Cammas Hall Farm, in Essex, has opened its doors to visitors wanting to pick their own since 1966.

There are plenty of spooky tunnels on site to explore and Halloween characters to interact with. 

What’s more, the patch is home to the world’s only giant erupting ‘Pumpcano’ which is a giant stack of pumpkins with flames firing out of the top. 

Alex Murphy Klein, who has appeared on Dancing On Ice twice, visited the farm and described it as ‘the best place to pick pumpkins in all the UK’.
