Watch out - monsters about

If you've been out and about in Derry this week you may have noticed some strange visitors lurking at a number of locations in and around the city centre. The curious creatures have been popping up here and there as part of this year's Derry Halloween programme as a reminder that the city is still very much the home of Halloween.
