In the afternoon, the family-friendly - yet wonderfully weird - The Witches will be screened, based on Roald Dahl's classic children's novel.

The adaptation sees an orphan stumble upon a secret witches' convention and uncover a plot to turn all the children in England into mice.

As well as the childhood favourite, the evening of Halloween night will bring a screening of horror classic The Shining.

The psychological thriller starring Jack Nicholson is based on Stephen King's novel about a family who move to a secluded and eeire hotel to upkeep the building while it's closed for the winter.
