'Rampaging Witches' in Grandtully!
Staff at Grandtully’s newly-opened Legends Coffee House, Lòchrann Arts and Chocolatier Strathtay had a wicked surprise on Halloween when a throng of novice witches and wizards arrived outside and demanded: “Trick or treat!”
Hidden beneath a colourful collection of pointed hats, kids from Grandtully Primary School were aided and abetted by school staff who had also dressed up garishly for the occasion.
They all sang spooky songs they had specially learned for the occasion but, after recovering from the shock, chocolatier Iain Burnett lead them all into his chocolate kitchen. He showed them some of his Willy Wonka style machinery and made sure no-one fell in. Then he pacified everyone with some specially designed orange and green dinosaur chocolates, which went down - well - a treat! |

After they had sung their wicked songs , Chocolatier Iain Burnett makes peace with the witches and wizards by handing out specially made orange and green dinosaurs.
MEANWHILE...
An Hallelujah Party was held at the Church centre in Aberfeldy which is reported being " a huge success with the young people enjoying dressing up as biblical characters for a fantastic evening packed full of games and fun."
The idea was to give the younger people an alternative to wandering the streets' trick or treating', and to celebrate the Christian perspective on Halloween (All Saints Day).
