A landlady admits she has "gone a bit mad" as the scale of Halloween decorations at her boozer has been staggering punters.

Mariners Bar in Harbour Parade, Ramsgate, has been transformed into a public house of horrors for the trick-or-treat season.

The inside is filled with demonic decorations, from talking zombies to imprisoned bar staff and a skeleton in a fish tank.

Natasha Crome, who has been running the pub for the past four years, said: "A lot of people have told me that I've gone a bit mad.

"I've done it for my pleasure. For me, it's just fun.

"I never used to be Halloween-y but I've got a big collection that has just grown and grown over the years.

"This year is probably the biggest [display] I've ever done.

"A lot of people have just come in to have a walk around, they can't believe it. It makes all the hard work worthwhile."

She added staff and band members have been told to wear spooky attire and she has stumped up a £50 cash prize for a fancy dress competition at the pub tomorrow night in the hope that customers will get into the spirit.
