EastEnders reveals first look at Halloween party with “ghoulish guests”
We've got our first look at what is sure to be a memorable Halloween Party at The Vic.
With Halloween just around the corner, EastEnders has given us our first look at The Vic’s “spooktacular” party to mark the event, which will be “complete with ghoulish guests”.
In the first-look images, Colin Salmon’s George Knight can be seen serving drinks from the behind the bar at The Queen Vic, which has been decked out with cobwebs and other decorations.
He is wearing a suit of armour, while other images see Harriet Thorpe’s Elaine with bright red hair and a black dress costume, and Kellie Bright’s Linda in a black dress with a cobweb design.
You can see the images both above and below.
The party is set to play out over two episodes, airing on Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st October.
The synopsis for the episode on 30th October says: “Halloween brings a shock for Linda, Ben tries to protect Lexi from more heartache and Nish lays down the law.”
Meanwhile, the synopsis for Halloween’s episode says: “Keanu tries to play the hero, and Halloween at The Vic continues. A desperate Rocky has nowhere to turn.”
Eastenders boss Chris Clenshaw previously teased what fans can expect this Halloween on the Square, saying: “Poor Linda’s struggling this Halloween as it’s the first one without Mick; obviously she wasn’t with Mick this time last year, but Halloween was very much their thing, and something they did together in the Vic.
“So, she’s trying her best to make a go of things, but she gets one hell of a surprise that she doesn’t bargain for…”
Of course, Halloween may not be the foremost celebration on most EastEnders fans’ minds – that is likely to be Christmas, which we know will bring about a mystery character’s murder, as seen in the flash-forward at the start of this year.
