HALLOWE’EN 2010: TRICK OR TREAT? Halloween comes but once a year, and with it carries nostalgic memories of toffee apples, bitterly cold afternoons and carving out a pumpkin into a mildly amusing caricature. Make the most of your day, even if your plan is simply to throw on some “shocking” attire and scare the living daylights out of someone who deserved it. However - as we at Venue are sure you will agree - as students, we are mature, level headed and sensible enough to realise that this is the one time of the year when partying hard is not only advised, but a rite of passage. Residents of Norwich and the UEA are no exception to this, and as such there are many events being
planned for the days running up to the legendary All-Hallows-Eve. The first to be held is the annual UNICEF Halloween Fancy Dress Pub Crawl taking place on the evening of the 28th, in aid of the international charity. Organised by members of the UNICEF Society at the UEA, this event promises to make Halloween 2010 one of the most memorable events of the year, as not only will there be free drinks at every stop, the society has vowed to give 100% of their profits to the charity; who said Halloween wasn’t good afterall? Next on the itinerary is the Big Halloween Weekender – Fright Night, hosted by Norwich’s biggest nightclub Mercy on Friday 29th. Legendary for their themed
nights, Mercy’s Fright Night will be the one to go to for those of you who enjoy a Jagerbomb-fuelled night of barely-there clothing, cheesy tunes and Champagne (from Devon). Last but by no means least is the Hallowe’en LCR 2010 on Saturday 30th. A permanent fixture to the UEA LCR calendar, this event is perfect for the weary student. Right in our own back garden, this event boasts spooky decorations, trailers and promotions for the upcoming film Paranormal Activity 2 and special give-aways to a select few lucky individuals. So, invest in some red face paint, forget your ever looming over-draft limit and make this a Halloween to remember.
