Witches and Ghost at Party

Witches and ghost 7.11.1958

Twenty-nine young people attended a Halloween party at Torrington Church Hall on Friday night.

The party was organised by the Church Youth Fellowship, under Mr E Smith and Mr Walter Webber (Church Sunday School Supt) helped by other members of the club’s adult advisory committee.

Games were run by Mr Smith and Miss L Matthews. There were two girls, Janet Squire and Jennifer Short, wearing ‘witches’ costumes and another, Helen Smale, dressed as a ‘ghost’.

Refreshments were provided by the young people themselves and served by the older committee members.
