MORE than 160 people put on their most terrifying outfits and took part in the inaugural Halloween Fun Run in Hove, raising more than £850 for HIV charity The Sussex Beacon.
The family-friendly event consisted of a 5k run for adults and a mini mile along the prom for the children.
Everyone wore Halloween costumes and there were prizes for the best dressed.
Simon Dowe, chief executive, said: “This was a brilliant event, I’ve never seen such a cheery bunch of vampires, ghosts and ghouls.
“Not only was it good fun, but all the money raised will go directly towards helping local people living with HIV, so it was for a great cause too.
“Huge thanks go to everyone involved in organising this, we’re hoping it will become an annual event and that the blood-thirsty creatures will get their trainers on for us again next year.”
The run was organised by E3 and sponsored by Glencairn Consulting, an IT company.
