A STREET in Malvern has been described as the place to be during Halloween because of its spooky decorations.
Children and their parents flock to Malvern Vale on October 31 because of how spooky the estate looks.
Most of the homes are decorated with incredible Halloween decorations, one house from previous years had spooky spider webs taped onto the windows and scary-looking clowns peering out at onlookers.
However, the residents often end up spending a small fortune on sweets just to run out before 6pm and forced to turn children away.
Carrie-Anna Abba decided to organise a 'sweet drive' for residents in Malvern Vale in order to help them supply sweets for trick and treaters throughout the evening.
Miss Abba, who is a practice manager of a dental practice, will be collecting sweet donations on Halloween and the day before.

She will then distribute them to houses on Malvern Vale with a pumpkin outside the door.
The mum of one said: "I'm going to dish out any house with pumpkins outside, so I know which houses want to take part in Halloween and don't bother the ones who don't.
"I've thought about it for the last two years because every year I take my son to Malvern Vale for trick or treating.

"Half of Malvern goes up to Malvern Vale on Halloween, one lady who lives there spent £50 on sweets and they were all gone in a few hours.
"When the sweets run out they have to put signs on doors or tell children they are out of sweets.
Mrs Abba said felt slightly guilty for going to the estate every year, so we wanted to do something to give back and she said residents seemed grateful and pleased with the idea.
"The residents were like 'oh my god' this would help massively. They spend a small fortune on sweets every year and the estate is swarmed.
"You can't drive up there and with the economy now, every little helps.
"It's like being in Amercia and it's definitely the place to be for Halloween.
"For the last five years, most of the homes are decorated."
