Hallowe'en celebrations in Derry are always topped off with an amazing fireworks display over the River Foyle.

In an article written by Justin Sablich on The New York Times website, Derry is listed alongside such horror heavyweights as New Orleans, Transylvania, Whitby (England), Salem (USA) Orlando (USA).

This is not the first time Derry has received the seal of approval from counterparts from across the Atlantic.
