CHILDREN and shoppers experienced things that go bump in the night at a half-term event.
Bosses at the Cornmill Shopping Centre set up their Scary Zoo on Thursday to thrill and frighten people during the half-term holidays.
Timed to coincide with Halloween this week, a range of creatures were on display in the shopping centre.
Events included cockroach racing, feeding displays and a chance to get close to some of the animals.
Shoppers queued round the centre to have a look at the displays, which included snakes, frogs, toads, lizards, tarantulas, scorpions, snails, millipedes, beetles, rats and mice.
