HALLOWEEN will be coming early to a North-East museum during the summer holidays.

The dli museum and Durham Art Gallery will host a collection of Deadly Durham Games, giving visitors the chance to brick in a monk, pin the tail on a werewolf and try a coffin for size.

The games will take up half the dli's education area and will run alongside the Horrible History Funfair of Fear exhibition, in which local author Terry Deary explores 2,000 years of British History.

The games and exhibition will run from Saturday, July 28, until Sunday, September 9.
